So
Slave auctions had many effects on the slaves and the white men. For the slaves, it was a huge effect negatively. Slave's families were separated. Even new born babies were separated from their mothers. Also the slaves were made to do akward things such as walking around and even taking some parts of their clothes off. Some health of slaves were also affected. They sometimes had either a drop in nutrition or sudden increasein nutritions. Sudden changes affected their state.
For white men it was a time when it was great and bad times. It was good times for they got more slaves to work for them. Also, more slaves were the same as more money. But the bad part was that they sometimes felt scared that anytime the slaves might revolt and the master would be killed.
