The left wing education system strikes again.

The world of the Romans lasted more than two thousand years, and throughout its entire existence an estimated 15% of their population were slaves, virtually all of them white people.
With an estimated population of 120 to 200 million, the Romans held more than 20 million people in slavery for more than two thousand years.

Contrast that with the 4.5 million for 250 years here in America.

Slavery under ANY pretext is abhorrent, but the past is gone and never coming back.

Actor Morgan Freeman said the best way to deal with America’s sin of slavery is to stop talking about, but there’s too much political power in keeping this hornet’s nest alive.

America’s political left are incapable of feeling ashamed, and this issue is front and center for them.

Only 10% of African people transported to the New World went to the colonies that became the USA.
