ORIGINAL: thompsonx ORIGINAL: BamaD The point is that the color of the seller is irrelevant yet you seem to think it is otherwise why have you brought this red herring to the table? The point is you claim it is based on racism. This means one of two things. A Blacks were as racist against Blacks as Whites were Do you realize how stupid this statement is or do you just open your mouth to change feet. For an adult who claims to have a college degree to not recognize the difference is astonishing. If white people from georgia kidnap white people from alabama and sell them to black people who claim they are racially superior to their slaves do you really think the kidnappers from georgia are racists? Do you really think that those who claim racial superiority are not racists? B It was economics. Since the first slave owner in the colonies was black I am inclined to think it is B. Once again you are full of shit. The first slaves in america came in 1603. There is documentation from the jamestown colony in 1620 of black slaves being purchased by white colonist. http://www.mythdebunk.com/first-slave-owner-african-american/ from wikepedia In 1654, John Casor, a black indentured servant, was the first man to be declared a slave in a civil case. He had claimed to an officer that his owner, free black colonist Anthony Johnson, had held him past his indenture term. A neighbor, Robert Parker told Johnson that if he did not release Casor, Parker would testify in court to this fact; which under local laws, may have resulted in Johnson losing some of his headright lands. Under duress, Johnson freed Casor, who entered into a seven years' indenture with Parker. Feeling cheated, Johnson sued Parker to repossess Casor. A Northampton County court ruled for Johnson, declaring that Parker illegally was detaining Casor from his rightful master who legally held him "for the duration of his life".[10] Those brought in in 1603 were indentured servants, like the Irish. And were freed at the end of their servatude, like the Irish. As I stated earlier economics was the original reason, race became an excuse as time went on. You suffer from the delusion that since I do not condemn the entire white race and say no black had anything to do with anything that happened I am a racist. I say that since you can see nothing but race you are.
