That is not persepctive. That is rationalization.

Historical fact is "rationalization"?

The two events you connect above are totally mutually exclusive.

Selling of captives from inter-tribal wars to white slave buyers is "mutually exclusive" to what?

That they were allowed to live, being sold for profit by some conquering tribal chieftain/king, instead of being slain?

I'm sorry.. that's NOT mutually exclusive. That's historical fact.. and the economics of slavery.

Btw, do you even know the origin of the word "Slavery"?

It existed long before blacks were shipped to the US and the rest of the Americas (Brazil, Haiti, and a multitude of other countries. And it will exist for many more years until we show suffficient resolve on an international level to stamp it out.
