As a matter of fact, West Indian slavery was much more brutal than American chattel slavery and some of the barbarism that U.S. slavery got came from there. But, that still does not negate that the norm of W. African slavery was nothing like the norm of American slavery. It was a totally different system, altogether, actually.
And, thanks for not being too condescending to me  ... but I have done the research, thanks. Have you done thorough research and not just read the things that would support the position you already held? 
Yes, there were a FEW black slave owners in America, too. There have always been blacks that didn't identify with other blacks. So what? |
I guess we don't know better....
