@mitonaarea5856 I'm not allowed to post links for fear of violating user agreements and getting ban. But yes, SOME did eat better than nobility. Multi grain bread was for the poor. White bread is less healthy do to processing strips it of nutrients, the royalty wanted it because it took longer and more expensive to make. Wheat bread was peasant food, but turns out to be more healthy. Early colony days, the homeless were fed crabs and lobsters because they were so plentiful at the time...the rich would not sink so low to eat such foods. Vikings ate very healthy as well.

School has a very small window to cram as much as they can into narrow preoccupied minds. Nothing stops people from learning more by reading and research at libraries. YouTube is just convenient. Even then, never take the content for granted, there are so many trying to rewrite history...just as wrong as not teaching all of history.

No one ever wants to talk about. 1. The African Tribes that captured and sold into slavery their African enemies. 2. White slavery in America. 3. Freed black slaves who in turn owned their own black, white, and Native American slaves.

So how did so many Africans become enslaved? African Tribes conquering their enemies sold them to European merchants...but no one likes to bring that nor the fact that black slave trade is still alive in Africa to this day. Native Americans and White people were enslaved too, as well a few reports of freed black slaves in turn ended up owning others as slaves. But I guess you only want to talk about your version of slavery and not historical facts. Whites this, whites that. Yet it was white people who risked everything to help escaped slaves in the underground railroad, it hundreds of thousands of whites that fought and died in blue uniforms to free slaves. But here we are today, no one talking about those sacrifices either.

@alexandralaye41 Most of those constantly crying about slavery actually can't trace their family's history back to being a slave...not to say records don't exist, but several generations coming to America AFTER the end of slavery. It's not that history isn't important, but the pity me party is out of control. I'm a white man being blamed for the current conditions of black people, and they actually live a better life than I am and I can trace my family history back to several relatives that help end slavery. Imagine ever Union Soldier, and person who risked everything to run the underground railroad, being able to see into their future families being tormented, harassed, and bashed by the future ungrateful slaves they freed.
