I continue to be amazed at the propoganda that says that traders captured negroes from africa as slaves. They bought them, fair and square, from negroes who had captured and enslaved them. It was and continues to be normal in africa.

A few years ago an african (egyptian) couple was caught with a slave in Irvine, California. She was living in their garage. She was purchased from her family. This is Orange County, the "OC". Both the family, their offspring, and the slave herself considered this normal.

Yet fiction like "Roots" portrays europeans as capturing them. Fail. How could europeans manage a foreign environment like that? All they did was engage in commerce with the negroes who traded negroes as slaves. Its all tribal warfare like crips (tm) and bloods (tm).

But its not PC to say that negroes sold negroes, so the blame is on others. Don't buy it. Its not even plausible.
