Nothin new duuuhhhh....It would appear that some Native American tribes kept prisoners of war and other different tribal members as slaves for thousands of years before the Europeans even set foot in Massachusetts? During the St. Anne`s War & French and Indian War, Native American tribes would kidnap women and children from Massachusetts towns and keep them as slaves. Even some tribes bought and sold African-Americans as slaves after 1620? French kept records now in St. Sulpice, Canada, of buying off/rescuing white slaves from Massachusetts, etc. from Iroquois and Algonkoin captivity.
soory typo Queen Annes War
A lot of male Native Americans captured during and after after the King Phillip’s War were put on boats to spend the rest of their lives in enslav ement on plantations in the Caribbean.
Let’s not forget the first Indian who talked to the Pilgrims was Squanto who had escaped enslavement in England and made his way back to Plymouth before the Pilgrims arrived.
