America’s Founding Fathers are seen by some people today as unjust and hypocrites, for while they talked of liberty and equality, they at the same time were enslaving hundreds of thousands of Africans. Some allege that the Founders bear most of the blame for the evils of slavery

The people most reponsible for slavery are those that SELL another human being to a person to be a slave. In the case of the African slaves, most were sold by either other Africans or by muslim slave traders. While in no way do I desire to lessen the evil of a person that would own a slave, I do want to see those that profited and sold the slave held up to at lpeast the same standard as the slave “owner”
But it is more beneficial and profitable for many to try and lay all of the blame on white Americans.

The men who sold humans into slavery are not most responsible for slavery but rather equally as responsible as those who bought and transported humans into slavery.

However, the people that are most responsible are those who bought, sold and held humans in slavery for generation after generation after generation for hundreds of years.
