What the original post seems to fail to
realize is that while it's true that Africans captured fellow Africans
(albeit of different tribes than the tribe of those doing the capturing)
to put into slavery, it was European traders who were doing the buying of
the unfortunate captured Africans.
If there wasn't a market for slaves amongst the European powers, there
wouldn't have been a slave trade of the scope it grew to become...
