-Caveat Lector-
Of course the issue here is a lot more complex than the origin of the slave trade and
also as to races in slavery. But rather it is one of the decimation by imperialism of
the entire African continent. Whether that domination is from within or without is
secondary to the end result. Slavery has been an abominable practice for all of human
history, it should be acknowledged as such rather than minimized by trying to blame
the other guy. Every race has done so, and continue to do so, but much more
stealthily these days.
