It was mostly white Christians who bought the slaves from the slave traders in the United States.

It was mostly blacks who enslaved them in the first place.

“It was mostly white Christians who bought the slaves from the slave traders in the United States.”

And one particular slave rendered her own personal take on the matter:

‘Twas mercy brought me from my Pagan land,
Taught my benighted soul to understand
That there’s a God, that there’s a Saviour too:
Once I redemption neither sought nor knew.
Some view our sable race with scornful eye,
“Their colour is a diabolic die.”
Remember, Christians, Negros, black as Cain,
May be refin’d, and join th’ angelic train.

~~Phyllis Wheatley

All is not as it seems.
