What types of migrations were voluntary vs. involuntary?
Involuntary migrations included those of enslaved peoples, indentured servants, especially from China and India, and convicts forced to do labor. These slaves or indentured servants were usually sent from various places in Africa, where slaves were captured from neighboring tribes, to the Americas through the Atlantic Slave Trade, before the slaves were emancipated in both North and South America in the latter 1800s. However, people who chose to migrate due to oppression or to find better job opportunities are considered voluntary migrants. These migrants usually migrated to urban centers in Europe or in India, or to the United States for the freedom of choices.
