So Native Americans being slaves, and in turn having owned their own slaves isn't mentioned by you.
Ulster Scotts and actual Scotts, Irish, and general petty criminals in England sent as indentured slaves get no mention huh?
An indentured was to be held for five years, most had their sentence prolonger as punishment for infractions based only on their masters say so.
First black slaves in history were also brought over as indentured, but in South America (modern day Brazil) a free black man owning other black slaves actually is on record for being the first one deny a black slaves freedom.
A whit indentured was just let go penny less after serving their time, were as the original black slaves were to be given 20+ acres of their own (before life long slavery got adopted).
Black slaves actually given better options after their freedom.
A white child indentured would be forcefully seperate from their parents, and was to remain a slave until age 21, but then they would just lie about the true age to keep them longer.
Most all African slaves were sold to white tradesman by other Africans.
Whites are blamed for slavery even though not all...actually most...white European countries did not partake in the slave trade.
And if not for whites risking their own lives with the underground railroad and taking up arms against the Confederacy, none would be free today.
What about reparations for the white union soldier who lost limbs fighting for black freedom then lost everything he owned, their farms, because they couldn't work and pay off debts or taxes?
Also England in the end actually did outlaw slavery and the crown paid reparations equaling nearly triple as any profit they may received.
But I guess that would actually require someone to honestly research the history of slavery and reparations.
All I hear is how whites are evil, how it's all whitey's fault and how whites should be made to pay.
After the civil war some blacks were given the chance to go back to Africa, others were given a chance to own (a shoddy) piece of land...so how do track down who was offered reparations and refused it vs those who didn't get offered anything?
1619 was when a Dutch independent slave merchant ship landed in Virginia with some 20-30 black slaves.
But North America had black slaves nearly a hundred years before that.
Maybe teachers need to actually take a class and past a test about slavery.
It's terribly convenient when people with agendas either cherry pick history or stop in a place and time that supports their agenda.
