SHHHHH, you'll burst his bubble.
Don't forget modern day Sudan (modern being used loosely here).

Or the tribes that fought his ancestors and sold them to the slavers.
If he's looking for currently slaveholders, perhaps he should try suing the government of the Sudan.
If he's just a fool out looking to cause trouble with people who have money, and no ties to slavery less than 130 years old, then he's on the right course.

The Chicago Tribune correctly points out that slavery was legal. In addition, it was sanctioned, prescribed and encouraged by the Koran, the Caliphate and the Ottoman Sultans.
Instead of descendants of slaves suing for slavery, I would advise the present day Africans to sue the Arabs and Europeans for depriving their ancestors of a chance of participating in the slave life, and escaping Africa.

Yes, he should sue the Sudanese Arabs who still keep slaves and ditto the Yemenis and Saudis
