I wonder how many white folks here would discovery that they are the ancestors of indentured servants from Ireland or England? How many fell under the flag of some feudal Lord that basically owned them? How many Chinese here today come from Coolies that were basically slaves who built the railroads? etc.
We all come from some place or time where things were screwed up BY TODAY'S STANDARDS. Those caps are important. The SJW's of today insist on judging folks from history based upon standards which they did not have. They worked from the rule book that was valid for their time and place. Was evil done? Sure.
Needs more upvotes. This revisionism has been pushed by the left since the 60's when the Dems switched tactics from cruel overlords to pushing black victimhood. Quite the trick LBJ and it worked politically. During the Depression through the 50's, despite Jim Crow, black out of wedlock birthrate and literacy rates were only a few percentage points behind whites. Then the Dems screwed them over, again.
