Umh...good point. But by the time slavery had really taken root in the US, all the Native Americans who would have died from European diseases would have already died. And the African-American community had already begun as a nation, whether or not slaves were still being brought to the US. Basically, the time I would choose to change things would be sometime in 1830. After the African-American culture had begun. I know zilch about African history. And one really wonders if there would have been anything like an African-American or Western Hemisphere Black culture if slavery hadn't existed. I kinda doubt the white culture would have allowed migration. So --basically-- I want Africans here. (Slavery being a necessity) Then once African-Americans, Afro-Cubans, etc exist then we can take the continent.
As for the Native Americans. If they hadn't warred against each other they might have united against the Europeans. Call me a wuss but I just wanted all the minorities to get along. and fight the power. -C --- In [email protected], "damamilcarandhisdamego" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > About the question on Native Americans and Africans conquering > European countries.
