Mary Ratliff, were you a slave?

No? Then sit down and shut up.

You didn’t inherit ownership of the issue.

Nor does the history of slavery pertain only to blacks. All people of all races were subjected to slavery at one time or another, some even more recent that blacks in America.

The only slaves in the history of the world were the black slaves in ante-bellum USA.

The only people to have every owned slaves in the history of the world were white Americans, more specifically the Founding Fathers,
