Maybe you're busy rubbing semen on your teeth since it's "good for you" according to your website. But, take a gander at a dictionary and learn to spell, "indentured, indefinitely, and heartfelt" if you want to talk about "facts" in a condescending manner.

However, if not for a landmark legal case, slavery in the US would have had a much different history. Prior to 1650, whites and black endentured servants had limited terms to "serve", after which they would be released and not be held in servitude indefinately.

That landmark case involved a black man who petitioned the courts to retain the unpaid services of another black man indefinately. This case created legal precedent for the institution of slavery in the colonies. Of course, no liberal or CRT agenda would bring this up, as facts are always ignored by libs. Hate the history of slavery in the US? Thank a black man for legalizing that institution.

lol Yea that's it. As if those in charge then actually gave a rats patootie about rights. If that case wasn't decided that way, do you actually think there would have been no slavery in America when it was practiced in just about every country that mattered?

I’m waiting for the local expert on all matters of slavery to give an opinion.

De Aylin brought the first black slaves to the coast of what is now the United States in 1526 to do the labor of building a colony near What is now Georgetown, S.C.

It’s disgusting that none of this nor the OP’s post is taught in our schools, especially to blacks.

I’m so glad that someone on here debunked this claim. I’ve been getting so tired of conservatives trotting out this false claim over the years.

Yet, here we are still discussing reparations. Heck, here in Woke CA, a reparations bill was passed and now an expert committee is figuring out how we can all pay for it.

Awesome, right?
You do know that Jamaica was a large slave colony, right? No one is literally saying that every black person in the U.S. is a descendant of slaves. It is a high chance that if you meet a black person that has familial ties to the U.S., that they are descended from slaves. Why is this so triggering to conservatives?

Man I swear y’all are the ones with extreme white guilt.

So .. Is the point one action 400 years ago justifies the horrid treatment of a race of people ever since? If not, just what is the point?
