White people were in bondage well before the first black slave and white humans were held in bondage long after the end of our Civil War.

""More white people were bought as slaves in North Africa, than Black people bought as slaves in the United States.
White people were still bought and sold in the Ottoman Empire, long after the last slave was freed in the USA"". - Thomas Stowell.

Just a fun fact, for those that want to be paid and made whole, for the past they never experienced.

BB has been reading Stormfront again. This absurd meme has been well debunked by an Irish Historian.

I'm not even gonna tackle this thread. Slavery existed before Europe was a world power. Understand the context though. And how it relates to our current conditions. Will be eye opening.

Chattel slavery effected Blacks who were in fact declared inferior by our Supreme Court. Trying to soften the US position by "it was done to Whites too" is not going to fly.

Even today slavery exist... modern slavery (from all races, whites, blacks, asians). It's called the sex trafficking trade. When you watch a porn movie many of those girls are sex slaves. And yes, it exists in the U.S. People are still hung up on slavery that occurred over 100 years ago and ignore modern slavery.

When we work to make money and the gov't wants to keep taking more money from us through high taxation, someone else benefits from my work, we essentially become slaves.

Bent Bow, I guess you didn't get the memo. .Only Blacks could be slaves . All slaves from Africa were sent to the eastern United States and nowhere else .
The Araba slave trade that lasted in Africa from the 1200s to the early 1900 was just a myth..
