All these slavery threads might give one the impression
that slavery was a uniquely American phenomenon.
Then I usually mention that there are more slaves right now than at any time in history.

How is that relevant to an American history textbook for kids?
The text book was not condoning slavery it was just stating a historical fact. Unfortunately liberals hate truth---"show me a liberal and i'll eventually scratch you out a fascist"
What percentage of American slaveholders were black?
Hey, good question. MORebelWoman, you seem to have the facts at the ready - an estimate?
Not that it shifts the fairness of the institution to one side or the other - black people can of course be as cruel and uncaring as white ones.
