umm. one good reason is because whites have always outnumber blacks 6:1. similar proportions even after the civil war.
ummmmm. did you know that black people also had white indentured servants. and african tribes sold the slaves in the first place.
not excusing anything but this is interesting to know. read the comments from that article also. very informative

"Another disturbing fact is that some black slave owners, such as William Ellison Jr, engaged in actual slave breeding. which was a practice frowned upon by most white slave owners. Ellison himself became quite wealthy breeding and selling slaves."
and alot of the breeding programs practiced back then were the breeding of white irish slaves with black slaves. Something for people to remember is that every race has been sold into slavery at some point and if all of the discussions keep rotating back to "well, my ancestors were slaves" then we can't move forward as a nation. FYI so called "white" nations were the fist to outlaw slavery. If we are supposed to feel ashamed that our ancestors might have owned slaves than can we also feel proud if our ancestors were the ones who helped abolish slavery?
Slavery still exists in a number of nations around the world... anyone want to guess where most of them are? The middle east and Africa.

I would think though most people would just claim that these were blacks buying other blacks to save them from being bought by potentially more ruthless whites.

i'm sure that may have been the case but it is proven that many of them did it for profit.

I'd be curious if any black slave owners threw their support in with the Confederacy.

i never learned anything like this in school. my interpretation was that europeans just kidnapped africans. you never see this in movies either.

Well yeah, it almost reminds me of how people tend to gloss over a whole lot of stuff about the native americans and just frame it in a sense of "whites came and took these peaceful peoples lands and also gave them diseases" but yeah the reality of the matter is a lot different.
But yeah that is an entirely different topic. Though I was taught in school that some blacks actually also sold blacks as slaves. But apparently at least some of them did it thinking the slaves would be treated well. I think sometimes it's not really taught much because some people would take it as trying to make an excuse for what happened in America with slavery.

Watch Amistad, the main character is captured by a rival tribe and sold to slavers.
The practice of capturing or buying captured slaves slowed down once the US had a sizeable slave population where slaver owners could "breed" more slaves or just import slaves that where already born into slavery. Far easier than capturing people who might resist.
i wanted to see that movie but never got around to it.
rob. i'm being called a racist for this thread. is this your opinion too? i know who i am and i'm no racist. i genuinely don't think a lot of people know about this stuff.

But there is a whole bunch of stuff from that era we aren't taught, even when it comes to Lincoln and the reasons he wanted to free the slaves. So it's a lot of stuff that gets left out.

Yep, though I was at least taught that slavery was different there, at least at the time. At least in terms of the treatment of the slaves. Though yeah slavery is still slavery.
