Well, she’d be technically more correct, or at least closer to the real number.
Slavery has been used for millenia. The ancient Egyptians used slaves to build the pyramids. To say that America is the only nation to have ever existed with slave labor is to ignore the grand majority of human history.
I’m so tired of the ignorance of history by so much of American society.

The Corsairs and Barbary pirates were raiding Europe for slaves in the 1500s so she’s technically correct.

There’s been slavery in the Americas for 10,000 years or more.
