Slavery in one form or another had existed across the world, for all recorded history right up to the point that white Christians began to denounce the practice in England. There were slaves here in North America before white people ever set foot in the place, held by various native tribes.

You seem to believe that it’s deflection to look at the entire picture rather than the cherry-picked white guilt-inducing window of time and place leading up to the US Civil War. You’ve been browbeaten and manipulated, and don’t even appear to realize this.

The United States and white people didn’t invent slavery, and weren’t the first let alone the only people to enslave black people, who were indeed enslaved by their own people as well.

Wake up. What you’ve been taught is politically motivated and contains lies of omission designed to cause you to carry the burden that you’re apparently laboring under.

Free yourself from that form of slavery, mental slavery.

Your assumption about what I know about slavery is not justified by anything I posted

I posted a comment in regards to the story posted.

My relatives fought for the grey as well as the blue. My ancestors were Scots. You need not lecture me about slavery nor anything else
