I beg to differ.
Having Grand Parents SOLD between Elite Eastern Europe Family members. Transported in a $hit Hole called steerage to NYC.

Then hauled to Chicopee Mass.

Forced to work at the Elite family member's cotton mill for over a generation.

Forced to live in the Company owned housing, use the company's stores for food and etc. Or family member still owned back in the Old Country would be jailed, beaten and punished.

I'd say those Millions of Whites between 1870-1910 that underwent this type of Slavery OPPRESSION earned some rights.

Unlike the few militant Black Community members always running to the camera for fame and $$$$$. It seems the White oppressed millions simply decided to blended into the American Dream. Seek to be independent, be self-supporting, build their own wealth via their skills/labors, marry and raise kids in a 2 parent FAMILY.

#3 The reason Africans were imported as slaves was because the Indigenous couldn't handle the work dying in droves and they couldn't get enough white Europeans. Thieves and malcontents were shipped off to the New World to labor. The English were good to end slavery at home, but kept it alive in their overseas colonies and territories. Ever watch Captain Blood, fiction but based upon history.

#6 Eh. Political theater is all the American left have for at least two years. They need to use it to consolidate their base behind them for 2026.

#8 100 years ago there were signs all over Boston that read 'No Irish need apply.' I'm pretty sure most Irish were 'dragged across an ocean' but I'll double check the maps...

#9 In fact, as Thomas Sowell has written, Blacks had an easier time buying/renting a place in Boston than the Irish did.

#12 BTW Princess do you know where the word for slave came from?

The classification and stigma of slavery is referred to in medieval Latin as sclavus, in relation to the Byzantine Greek sklábos, being a derivation of sklabēnós, which translates as ‘Slavic’, originally as a self-reference for the Slavic people, as slovĕninŭ.

NB Black Russian is a cocktail of vodka and Kahlúa not a person of color.

The Slavs of the Transcaucusus did a fair amount of slaving themselves.

#14 ..yes a history as long as mankind. Then something got into white Western European culture in the early 18th Century to rid themselves of it unlike every other culture in the world.

#17 #8 A couple of my great aunts starved to death during the potato famine while waiting for passage to the U.S. Many Irish were "indentured servants (basically slaves) until they could buy their freedom. Crockett should read more and talk less.
