After the difficulties endured by Sir Walter Raleigh in Roanoke, the English attempted to forge colonies in the New World once again. This time, the English adopted a plantation type stance, that would allow the settlements to sustain themselves (Shultz, 2013). Rather than setting their sights on gold, they looked to colonize. After successfully growing tobacco crops with the help of the Indians, the English then sought to force the Indians to work. The Indians objected, as they did not agree with farming for profit. The English lacked the ability to enslave the Indians, so they came up with another option. The English and the Dutch conspired to ship Africans to the area to tend to the land. This became known as indentured servitude
