Actually when there in the Caribbean I found most all the inhabitants (black) were indeed the decedents of slaves brought over through places like Bonaire.

What no one will mention here is that there used to be other ORIGINAL ISLAND populations before the current almost all black ones that DIED because the slaves brought diseases that killed them all. (Kind of like Columbus and Indians)...
So there are NO original folks left to sue IMO. This is just another ploy where a crying population is trying to use the courts to get rich quick.
IMO they need to get a life and go away.

On the positive side of slavery (yes there was one); wasn't good ethically at all, but it saved the lives of all those sold who would have been killed by the opposing tribes anyway.
So my point is that if there was no slavery, there would have been none of these people to be descended from because their forefathers would have been slaughtered in tribal warfare. How about going back to sue the victorious tribes that captured and sold them? (their own brothers) PS: Slavery is still going on from Africa through the Arab nations and where is the outrage? Anyone hear word one about that and who is doing anything about that today?

And a secondary point, all of Europe and the Americas didn't import near the number of African slaves muslim Arabia did.

Yet there are few blacks in Saudi Arabia.

The muslim arabs preferred their slaved castrated!

(This is a fun fact to share with any NOI type you happen to talk to)
