That both blacks and whites were kept as slaves the Americas and that whites and blacks at one time were kept as indentured servants and that at one time blacks could own slaves in early colonial america is a fact though I don't know what it has to do with the price of tea in china or what it has to do with dragon age.

 

Simply put it was economically cheaper in early colonial america to have indentured servants who were let loose with some supplies to fend for themselves than to keep slaves and then later as the colonies became more established it became cheaper to keep slaves and that many of the later black codes were to prevent poor whites and poor blacks from getting together to launch revolts which had become a issue with such high profile rebellions such as bacon's rebellion.

We never kept slaves in America or took part of any chattel slavery, they are whitewashing history do they can erase the truth that it was Europeans who started enslaving Africans in America.

The only whitewashing is the claim that blacks never kept over blacks as slaves or kept indentured servants.

2: ...What? What makes you think there wasn't nationalism in the middle ages compared to Thedas?

 

 

"Nationalism" was born in the battle of Valmy in 1792.

Who sold you that line?  Did they also tell you that blacks were the morally superior race who would never stoop to the level of those dirty Europeans?  By denying the historical fact of black africans who owned and traded other black africans as slaves, its you who's doing the whitewashing.

* Yes we did

* We owned plantations too - we ain't innocent in this matter of slavery. Becuase a black man can look white and get away with shite like that.

* No. Did you even read history books? No, no, no.

History books are fabricated by whites to demonize us, and I have read history since grade school. It seems to me you rather believe a lie than facing the truth, but if that's what you believe that's fine and a little sad.

You know what I think? You just want to be right so by ridiculing me so you want me to submit that I was wrong. Not going to happen and I think iyou know it's not the truth that we sell our own people to European invaders, you just don't want to accept the truth that it was them who forced us into slavery against our will, and we suffer the most out of everyone! But that's for you to decide.
