Seen: an advertisement for a TV show about slavery in America.
Granted, it wasn’t intentional, but slavery was actually good for Blacks. Because of slavery, Blacks are now “modern,” “educated” and “Western”[1]. They no longer live in grass huts in the jungles of Africa. They live in White countries. They have indoor plumbing, refrigeration and cell phones. They are now cops, firemen, teachers, mayors, judges, even Supreme Court justices. Furthermore on the subject, most White slave owners treated their slaves pretty well (slaves were very expensive, and sick, injured or malnourished slaves couldn’t work) [2]. Yet, the Blacks and the liberals regularly moan about the horrors of slavery. (Think about what would happen if you asked a modern negro if he would be willing to travel back in time to live in the jungle in Africa, just like his ancestors did. You can guess his answer!).

[1] actually, Blacks are not really Western, they are only superficially Western (wearing tennis shoes and t-shirts doesn’t make you a Westerner)
[2] male negro slaves sold for 260 pounds in South Carolina in 1758 (that was a lot of money then)
