Slavery is wrong when practiced by anyone.

While the media is focused on the Evil Whites Europeans side.
They and the usual race pimps for $$$$, tend to overlook that slavery is still very much practiced by:

Most of Africa,
the Middle & Far East,
Arabs & Communist / National Socialists Gov's.

SOME OVERLOOKED FACTS REGARDING SLAVERY
A vast majority of the millions of slaves brought to the Americas, were captured by other Africans and sold to the slave traders.

In fact many a Rich $$$ Northern Family owned the slave ships. They also controlled the shipping of produced items from Southern Plantations.

The US Northern States were the major purchasers of Southern slave states goods, foods and etc.

The Northern US States had it share of legally owned Slaves right up to the 1860's and some still years AFTER the Civil War was over.

The South has more freed slaves walking the streets than the North.

The Northern version was called Indentured ~~slaves~~ servants.
It was practiced under the table all the way into the 1900's.

There were about 4,000 black slave owners in the US in 1860. US Black owning Blacks was close to 100,000 slaves.

OBTW:
One of the 1st documented slave owners in American Colonies was Anthony Johnson (he was black) he even took his case to court and won ownership of John Casor (sp), around 1620

2 The Northern US States had it share of legally owned Slaves right up to the 1860's and some still years AFTER the Civil War was over.

That would be Kentucky, Maryland, and Delaware which did not secede from the union and therefore were not subject to the Emancipation Proclamation. However, the 13th Amendment ended all slavery. BTW, the Northwest Ordinance of 1787 barred entry of slavery in the territory that would become Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, and Wisconsin.

Indenturing involved a contract based upon an agreement between two parties. Today that is still practiced in a modified form for professional sports. Some technical companies claim 'ownership' of the skills of certain employees that by agreement can't sell their skill and services to another employer in the same field.
