  I appreciate your call for more research into what really happened and why it happened, but selling people for money and then turning around and claiming they're immune somehow because they thought the slave would be treated justly is ridiculous -- shipping someone off for money away from their home against their will is WRONG from beginning to end.

  It is very strange to me that like every other group the Africans also want us to believe they treated their slaves like children! And they didn't sell slaves, as evident why would they sell their own strong warriors! Like they continue to do in Africa, enemies were captured, and sold! Now they just kill their enemies! They also sold slaves to one and other and to Arabs! African's and especially African-American's lie and diminish their own involvement in slavery like everyone else involved!
