Read about serfdom, and how widespread it was. It was another form of slavery, and plenty of white people toiled under it. The reality is that human beings can be very cruel to one another, and those things that were done wrong in the US were not unprecedented. That doesn’t excuse them, but they weren’t in any way the exclusive sins of the US.

The idiot who wrote this doesn't know how the phrase "black Irish" is used.

Who were the Black Irish, and what is their story?

Second paragraph is incorrect. The Baptist church taught that a persons dark skin was the mark of Cain and hence that blacks were inferior because God proclaimed it

"Africans had been capturing, enslaving and selling each other for thousands of years before Christopher Columbus discovered a huge new market for African slave traders. Africans continued to enslave each other after the end of North American slavery."

Actual facts that far too many in our society are ignorant of.

What you as usual gleefully smear with was merely the utterance of a few folks very long ago justifying segregation in a few baptist congregations

Sure doesn’t mean it’s Gods proclaimation anymore than some Jews saying shvartze or kushi which today is the equivalent of “nigger” signifies Gods proclaimation either

I know you can’t resist south bashing and now apparently baptist bashing but try to be accurate

You are aware that like most Protestant sects that Baptist includes all spectrums from southern and white to northern and blacks and from Uber social conservatives to las liberal as evangelical Lutherans

“Read about serfdom”

It is remarkable how similar serfdom is to modern day socialism....where socialism has become “ripened” to the point that the government (ruling class) has taken all prosperity from the masses under the guise of benefiting the masses...and all of the wealth winds up with the ruling class...with crumbs left for the masses.

Dinesh D’Souza has some real knowledge of the history of Dems and slavery. For example did you know that before the civil war only dems owned slaves? No republican ever owned a slave. It was also the dems who were the KKK, White supremicists and racists. They still are. How else can you exlain the fact that all inner cities run by dems are still run like plantations? Dinesh is on you tube. Give him a listen. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=blJKdNr5VSU

In a time when the average life spen was a little over 30 years 5 to 10 years could be a life sentence.

In the Caribbean suger plantations feildhands seldom lived more than a few years. Being sent there was considered a death sentence.

Name a nation without a form of slavery in 1775.

In fact name a nation without a form of slavery legal and/or illegal today.

Except if one reads a little further, Cain's lineage didn't survive the flood.

There was a lot of rationalizing that had to be done in order for a culturally christian people to accept slavery.

I wasn’t south bashing. I live in the south and love it.

Your defensiveness is silly in light of what is factual.
