Yeah but black people where subject to the most evil type of slavery and when We where so called free, still subject to murder and injustice... Why when the slave holder's freed the slaves they didn't give the slave anything to go for himself with after the slave built a country for the slave holder... Do the math.

Slavery, in the US, wasn't anywhere close to the most barbaric slave trades.
Nor was it remotely close to the largest, or the most current.
The only thing that seems to have imparted any 'exceptional-ism' to the US slave trade was that it occurred in the US.

I guess maybe ol Abraham Lincoln was right. The former slaves should have been sent back to Africa because there would be too much division between former slaves/slaveowners for the country to ever truly be united.
Your posts seem to indicate as much. Too bad he got shot after the war ended, There would be no racial divisions in the US becasue everyone would be white. And all the blacks could live happily ever after in Africa running from Hyenas and Lions and whatnot.
Nobody alive today has ever owned any slaves so get over yourself already.
The popular opinion regarding slavery in the United States is that it was a simple matter of racial oppression of blacks by whites. However, the presence of black slaveholders in North America prior to the Civil War shows that slavery was not based solely on color but on economics. Black slave owners, for the most part, were complicities in support of the institution deriving from it wealth and privileges denied to other groups.
The same black people who built the pyramids, the white man brought Us here. We made mountains and We made you.
white people kidnapped soe of Us...

Don't you mean the white man brought you here after the black man sold each other to him? I'm pretty sure the mountains were made after millions of years of geological processes, not slave labor. And my mama made me, blue eyes and all. I sure was'nt built by any slave.
Funny how there is always at least one like you on these threads, go ahead and troll away about how blacks are so oppressed. Maybe it will make you feel better about how slavery (from 150 years ago) screwed you over so bad.
