∙ 6y agoIt looks like you may have run two separate questions together. Why would American Indians need to pay to journey to America, given that that's where they already lived?
Becoming a servant (it wouldn't necessarily mean working on a plantation or farm, but it COULD mean that) in exchange for passage to the New World (often, though it could also be for payment for other things) was called "indentured servitude", and those who did it were "indentured servants". It was, in effect, a form of debt: a wealthy person would essentially pay your wages in one lump sum "up front" and then you would work at no pay (other than, usually, room and board) for an agreed-upon period.

How did the Columbian Exchange contribute to the Atlantic Slave Trade?
the Colombian exchange caused the slave trade because European plantations in the Americas demanded extensive laborers to man them. Native Americans first were forced to become the laborers, but disease and lack of training made them incapable of completing the work. Therefore Europeans shipped Africans to America in order to man the plantations. The reason behind this was to get strong labor that already was exposed to European diseases. Since Africa is very close to Europe, the Africans had more exposer to the diseases, and thus, were better suited for the job.
