Thinking about your black ancestors being slaves must be very painful but did you ever ask the black college students in your class if they would rather be living in Africa today or where they are living in the USA?

I chatted with some black girls in a plantation house in Louisiana while we were touring it. They had just learned that the owners of that plantation were black and they had owned black slaves. They were devastated.

Louisiana had the largest number of black slave owners if history serves me correctly.
