Best Answer

The shipment of Africans from Africa, across the Atlantic Ocean, and to the New World, is called the Middle Passage, which was the voyage across the ocean that the Africans were forced to endure. There wasn't really a specific explorer that brought them to the Americas, but since diseases from the Europeans had wiped out so many of the Native Americans, they had to find new slaves. The Africans seemed to have developed a certain immunity to the diseases, so, of course, they were the ones that were sent to America.

There wasn't actually a specific person who brought the slaves with them to the Americas, but there was the African Slave Trade, which was the trade of African slaves between America, Africa, Europe, and Asia.

The first slaves arrived in the New World as part of the San Miguel de Gualdape colony in present-day South Carolina. They were brought by Lucas Vasquez de Ayllón in 1526.
