Not that all Africans allowed it to happen. But there were some that worked with the Europeans to capture other africans. How do you think they were able to navigate through the jungles. They had to have guides that knew the terrain.
And if they were lucky enough to find an African who would trade that service for weapons to use against a rival tribe, better yet lead them to the rival tribe for enslavement. What tribal chief wouldn't help.
Its a known fact that it was some Africans that did help. Just like it were some Jewish people that helped Hitler in his quest.
And I've studied the works of Dr John Henrick Clarke and Dr Sulayman Nyang (professor of African studies @ Howard university)
The highlighted part is mostly what I have believed about our own involvement in this process. It sounds logical to get rid of you lifelong enemies this way. Tribalism still rears its head in Africa today. I know lots of that is fostered by the Colonialism that took place there, but how much of it was existant back in the days of slavery.
