The Middle Passage had devastating effects on Africans, as millions were subjected to brutal conditions during the transatlantic slave trade. Many Africans suffered from malnutrition, disease, and death during the journey. The trauma and brutality of the Middle Passage had long-lasting physical and psychological impacts on the survivors.

The Middle Passage, as Americans called it.
The slave trade created middle passage as a way to transport slaves from Europe across the Atlantic Ocean to the Americas With minimal trouble. The conditions of middle passage were deplorable with the odor unbearable and sickness, disease, and raw sewage in abundance. Many slaves died in route, and many more were unsellable due to their weakened condition.
The middle passage was a passage taken by boat from Africa to Spain for slave trade conducted by the US in the sixteen hundreds. It was a very brutal and dangerous trip as the slaves were treated horribly and many often died in the trip. My knowledge is basic, but I hope this helps.

The middle passage is how slaves got to America - in a stink infested and filthy cargo hold on a slave ship. Many slaves died enroute, making the slaves that made it sell at a higher price because of supply and demand. Many slaves were so weak they could not work and more than likely met an untimely death at the hands of a slaver.
Many of the slaves were kept in the hold and only by luck did they survive the trip.
