pipedreams Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 "When will Black History Month be … history? Apart from the bizarre notion that educators should set aside one month to salute the historical achievements of one race apart from and above the historical achievements of other races, Black History Month appears to omit a lot of black history. About slavery, do our mostly left-wing educators teach that slavery was not unique to America and is as old as humankind? As economist and author Thomas Sowell says: "More whites were brought as slaves to North Africa than blacks brought as slaves to the United States or to the 13 colonies from which it was formed. White slaves were still being bought and sold in the Ottoman Empire, decades after blacks were freed in the United States."" https://www.wnd.com/2021/02/left-wing-educators-dont-teach-black-history-month/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
railfancwb Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 The first slave owner in what became the United States was a black man who went to court and convinced it to convert an ending time certain indenture into lifetime chattel slavery.
