One glaringly inconvenient truth that, odds are, few folks of any race are aware is that the very first legal slave owner in America was one Anthony Johnson — a black man.

BLM is a politically correct movement.
The opposite of politically correct is factually correct.

An interesting set of novels is the Benjamin January series by Barbara Hambly. January is a free man of color in New Orleans in the 1830s. He was born a slave but freed by his mother’s “protector” - a white planter. His father was all African and his mother was mulatto. His mother was also freed and owned slaves. Interesting look at the system back then in NO.

Interesting. Sobering.
If White Racism is, indeed, eternal and irremediable, then there are two choices for behaviour in that light; learn to live with it and deal with it or kill or enslave all white people. Moslems and BLM seem to have reached similar conclusions as to how to proceed.

I spent some time in Liberia.
You know what the freed slaves from the US did when they got back to Africa?
You guessed it, they enslaved the backs that were already there.
If it wasn’t for African slave-raiding and muslim slave-trading in Africa, there would have been no slavery in the New World.
The great majority of New World slaves toiled in the Caribbean and in South America. Slavery in what become the U.S. was small in comparison.

Slavery as practiced in the old South and in 16th Century Europe was introduced by muslims. Had there been no Islam then it is doubtful that slavery would have ever arisen in Europe and America.
Mohammed & Charlemagne Revisited: The Epilogue by Emmet Scott

Relative to their numbers in the population (27 million according to the 1860 census), a miniscule number of whites owned slaves. Eight million whites lived in the South, but of these, fewer than 325,000 owned slaves. What this means is that only 1.4 percent of the total white population consisted of slave owners, and only 4.8 percent of the white Southern population did so.
In glaring contrast, in this same year, there were 4.5 million blacks living in America, and 500,000 blacks in the South. Over half of these—261, 988—were freed men. In the city of New Orleans alone, more than 3,000 blacks owned slaves. That is, 28 percent of the free black population consisted of slave holders.
If I am reading this right, there were 325k slave owners, but only 250k slaves (500k in south, 261k freed men)?
Another non discussed fact is the number of American Indians who owned slaves. In fact, the “native” Americans took the slaves with them when they were relocated from Georgia and Alabama to Oklahoma in 1832. Those slaves were not even freed by the 13th Amendment.
I wish more people would understand that slavery was legal in the US for 80 years (from the treaty of Paris in 1783 until the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863); illiterate blacktivists have used “400 years” ad nauseum, and it is just BS (quintupling the grievance).
This country will never have an honest discussion about race because the grievance industry is simply too lucrative...
