How was slavery in the Americas different from slavery in Africa and Muslims?

Slavery in the Americas was characterized by chattel slavery, where enslaved individuals were considered property with no legal rights, often subjected to brutal conditions and a lifelong status of servitude. In contrast, slavery in Africa and among Muslim societies often included systems where enslaved individuals could sometimes earn their freedom, hold positions of influence, or integrate into the family of their captors. Additionally, while slavery in Africa was often tied to warfare and debt, the transatlantic slave trade in the Americas was driven by a demand for labor in plantations, leading to a massive forced migration and a racialized system of oppression.
