Then, you do NOT support the notion that slavery was somehow "good for the negro."

I don't support slavery.

I find it hypocritical for the PC crowd that is on the bandwagon of moral relativism and "consider the context" to single out slavery as one case to be absolutist...

the majority of slaves sent to the western hemisphere were prisoners of war OR war booty as a result of the tribal wars in 18th & 19th century Africa.

those who were NOT sold into slavery were KILLED;therefore, perhaps "slavery was good for the negro" who was NOT KILLED?

while slavery was a hideous evil, it certainly would beat stoning,crucifixion,beheading or being beaten to death with sticks.
