    Dude a goodly number of the slaves in the Roman empire were black. There is a reason about the only Europeans that have some experience of sickle cell anemia among their members are Italian.

    And those principles, established in holy scripture, are present within the legal system. So our laws are based on the bible. Greek philosophy is based on the bible. The greeks were savages before they encountered the wisdom of africa when they invaded israel and egypt and stole all of the manuscrpits from the library before burning it down so nobody else could have the knowledge.

    Romans did not codify a law permitting the enslavement of "black ppl". You must be referring to the papal bull that declared non christians perpetual slavery. Thats not RBS.

    Greek philosophy was not based on the Bible, lol.
    You do realize that, even as a Christian, that non-Christians can arrive at the same conclusions as other cultures? Almost every civilization has banned murder and theft, as an example.

    I’m a Christian, but Jews and Christians both took good things from Greek philosophy to bolster their arguments. Aquinas, of whom I’m a huge fan, did the most work synthesizing Greek philosophy with Christian beliefs.

    Muslims enslaved whites and blacks. No exceptions for them, they saw everybody as weak apart from themselves.

    Youve got it mixed up. Greeks took everything from the egyptians. All greek philosophy is egyptian based.

    he is telling the truth. color coded chattel slavery was invented in virginia as a reaction to bacon's rebellion (about 1675) black slaves and white indentured servants were defeated, and the "elite" decided that by time limiting the indentures of white servants while confirming the black's status as property would prevent future alliances of people with hope and those without.

    Chuma Ogunwole (gprep.org)

    Bacon’s Rebellion, which occurred in 1676 in the colony of Virginia, significantly impacted the growth of slavery in early America. The socio-economic dilemma between the poor whites and the gentry-elite in 17thcentury Virginia came to a head in Bacon’s rebellion, and was ultimately solved by institutionalized slavery. Paradoxically, greater freedom and opportunity for ordinary whites in Virginia were inextricably tied to the increasing debasement and enslavement of Africans. As historian Edmund Morgan points out, the two seemingly contradictory but intertwined notions of freedom and slavery constitute the central paradox of American history.

    Americans didn’t buy slaves because they were black. They bought slaves because blacks that sold them into slavery sold them for the cheapest. Irish and Scottish slaves and indentured servants existed, too. Roman citizens were not slaves. Muslims were not slaves. American tribes took slaves based on the slaves not being from their tribe.

    Nope. At the time, black slaves were merely the cheapest.

    That is long since proven revisionist fallacy.

    They took nothing from the egyptians and the claim is nothing more thsan spin

    Irrelevant because there were black slaves here before his rebellion. It was institutionalized and had nothing to do with race.

    Greek philosophy is not based on the bible it predates the bible. They did not do as you claim.

    Apparently you miss the point that one can be in debt and still ne prosperous.

    America or more prexisely capitalism has in fact reduced poverty more than any other nation or system in human history. Debt not withstanding and debt is not a counter argument to thaty claim.

    History shows no such thing. No one depopulated Africa except africans. African slaves originated as slaves o other africans and were bought and transported here primarily by Carribean slave traders who then sold them to people in the American colonies.

    Most African slaves weren’t even sent to America. Most went to South America. You love rewriting history. Only 4-6% of African slaves came to America.
