We're all Africans...if you care to trace it back far enough. Ditto for us all having ancestors that were slaves. Well, except for the very first slave owner ever anywhere I suppose.

I've wondered about getting reparations from the Romans etc. myself. The back interest on it alone would set me up nicely I bet.

You mean slavery existed before colonists came to America?? Wink

My concern is the number of liberals addicted to such kool-aid.

When will the liberals get upset and do something about the current slave trade in the US? I'm speaking about all the people forced into the sex trade, I.E. human trafficking. If you count them, there may be more slaves in the country now than when slavery was legal.
