Though it's true that 1619 is the founding of black America, but I wouldn't go beyond that. And I question whether your interpretation is anything more than an expression of your own antipathy to blacks.

American wasn't founded SOLELY on the backs of slaves, though it PARTIALLY was. As for slavery being the cause of the Revolution, how could that be given that Britain only began to emancipate slaves in their empire in 1833?

we owe everything to Black people. Without them, we would be no greater than, say, Mexico or Canada.

Two other countries that once had black slavery.
