You’re aware that we’re ALL descended from slaves - right?

Don’t give in to racist hate.

That is absolutely true. I’ve been doing my family tree for about 25 years, and I know the mathematics involved - by the time you get back 30-40 generations (750-1200 years, with an average generation being as short as 25 years and as long as 30), the odds of one of your ancestors having been a king/queen and another one of your ancestors having been a slave are astronomically high. Go back 10 more generations from that point, and you theoretically have 1,024 times more ancestors, and that much more certainty of being descended from both kings and slaves.

That was kind of the point of the story of Adam in Genesis - to point out that we are ALL human, that none is better in God’s eyes than anyone else because of their position, because we are all descended from Adam and Eve.

As for me, I know that my ancestors were slaves - it’s in the Bible. So I don’t put up with the BS being shoved down our throats by the race baiters.
