I just finished reading a book called The Book of Negroes by Lawrence Hill. (Dan Hill's brother,Everytime we touch the honesty is too much, and I think related to Malcom Gladwell who in turn is related to Colin Powell, I think is how it goes) It is about a woman who was stolen from Africa and literally shipped over to the USA in the mid 1700's and her horrendous tale of disgusting slavery. They threw folks off the ship on the regular, it was where you went when you died or were bad. It annoys me when it seems anything folks question/talk about other than what you find in the mainstream/pablum media coverage gets called a freaking Conspiracy Theory. I do like all the cute names we make up when folks faction off and ask question or make even ridiculous claims, Crackers, Teabaggers, Birthers etc etc etc etc.
