Technically, white Europeans are guilty of tons of bad stuff all around the world in days of old, often to benefit themselves at the expensive of the native population.
I wouldn't go as far as to punish the descendants of those settlers. That's about as stupid as paying the descendants of slaves, for crying out loud.
Yes, I agree. Basically.

Haha. I know.
They blame white people for slavery, their own people sold them to us, so if they're going to blame anybody for slavery blame your ancestors.
Um, what? Yes, there was slavery among a lot of African tribes, but it was a bit different from what the US did-- it wasn't racial slavery, for one thing.
And... blame your ancestors? Probably not.

He's paranoid.
There are alot of issues facing black people, but they're not exclusive to black people. These guys need to stop playing the victim and both sides need to start fixing the problem.
Look, yes, that's true, but you know what's also true? There IS a discrepancy along racial lines. Why? That's the issue.

Lol. Britain? Their own people in Africa got them on ships and took them to America and sold them to us. Britain wouldn't have gone into Africa, taken them and then brought them to America. Britain was about to go to war with Spain. Most slaves were brought to us by their own people. Just look at how bad the Civil War is in Africa now, it's been like that forever. Clans vs Clans, Tribes vs Tribes.
Um, what? Very, very few Africans ran slave ships. Arabs and Africans did some slavetrading IN Africa (again, African slavetrading was frequently different from European and Arabic), but slavetrading ships were mostly European. The Dutch are particularly famed for it, but before the trade itself was banned US, British, Spanish, Portuguese, and just about everyone else shipped them.
(Also, yes, I know I necromanced a bit. Ooops.)
