If that doesn't destroy the Critical Race theory myth of group identity I don't know what does. Not only did blacks in America own blacks, but Africans were the ones who mainly enslaved people from other tribes and sold them to the Europeans for "export"
The Native Americans themselves owned thousands of black slaves.
This "white privilige" Marxist nonsense does not hold water. All humans are capable of evil, it's not a white thing. We need to work as one country united against evil. This Critical Race Theory is pure evil
You're wasting your time.
When these thugs and rioters hear something that goes against their ideology, and find that they cannot refute it, they will employ the standard far-left response: They will ignore it and wait for you to go away.
Don't make the mistake of thinking they are interested in the truth. They aren't. They are only interested in destroying anyone who opposes them. Never mind that the opponent is right and they are wrong. Unimportant to the far-left.
Black Slave owners probably numbered in the thousands. They owned around 10,000 slaves. Considering that there were over three million slaves and 300,000 free blacks. Their involvement in the slave trade seems inconsequential. It would be like bringing attention to African Americans today who support the Confederate flag.
And they were mostly mixed race. To label them as “black” is willful ignorance considering that so many of them were children of slave owners. They were able to be in their position for that reason.
This is the largest theme of these two studies of William Ellison, a man whose life spanned the seemingly familiar terrain of the antebellum South. A brown- skinned man who today would be called black, Ellison considered himself, and was considered by others, a man of color, a mulatto, neither black nor white, but brown and self-consciously so. Born a slave in 1790, the son of a black slave mother and probably of a white planter father, Ellison worked his way out of bondage, changing his name from April - a slave appellation - to William.
Quote:
Like others who have studied the brown elite, Mr. Johnson and Mr. Roark see the free people of color as trapped on the middle ground between the desperate fear of falling into black slavery and the pathetic hope of rising into the rarefied heights of the white plantation elite. To this end, free people of color disdained blacks, free and slave, and mimicked whites, widening the social distance between brown and black as they edged toward the unattainable white ideal. Slave ownership was one way brown people could establish credentials for racial reliability. Ellison used this tool to the fullest.

As far as I'm concerned, one single black slave master alone is sufficient to completely discredit the pure "black aryan" victimhood complex and Marxist group concept of Critical Race Theory
True but odd that the focus is on white southern slave history no other point of focus
Huge current open slave market in Libya
No interest
Makes me think it’s not about slavery

Not even sure how this is news. All over the Americas mixed race individuals could be found owning slaves. Far more were white but sometimes their children/descendants occupied a middle status (not white, not black) which permitted them to own slaves.

Here's another tidbit they "forgot" to teach you. Whites were slaves as well owned by other Whites.
And there were thousands of freed Black slaves that were beholden to no one.
To teach you that humans owned other humans (race omitted) would not further some kind of agenda.
History has been whitewashed over the years and basically rewritten.
seems like the point went right over your head. It was not "whites", it was humans.
And the people of America righted that wrong, the Union fought and defeated the Confederacy to defeat the notion of owning people. The Union is what became today's United States
No true at all. 5 Union states were slave states. The Union fought the Confederacy to prevent the breakup of the United States. They didn't fight to end slavery. The Emancipation Proclamation was issued to gain favor from abolitionists within the Union and abroad because many didn't see the value in warring with the Confederacy just to force them to stay.
I question your motives with a statement like that. There has been a huge movement building to abolish the United States because almost all the founding fathers owned slaves. The fact that black ancestors themselves owned slaves would logically mean the Critical Race Theory crazies now need to cancel themselves
Unless you are completely naive, you should recognize that abolishing the United States is not coming from black people, it's coming from the white university marxists who want to take down free markets and capitalism to replace it with their communist utopia
