Slave owning was a pretty diversified and inclusive operation at the time. The chief suppliers to the slave trade were black Africans. The middle men and consumers were mostly white.
Who needs racial quotas?
Are you able to prove that any were? What proportion? Scumbags and criminals will use any religion, as you know, if it gives them good cover.
Others made money out of their behaviour, like drug-runners in South America now, but the real slavee-owners were 'white' and 'Christian' citizens of the US.
What Barbarians! Why everyone knows the market value for a girl is at least $10,000.The bidding opens at $9,000. For sale? A Yazidi girl.
She is said to be beautiful, hardworking, and a virgin. She's also just 11 years old.

I'm sure there will be no outrage over this among liberals, there never seems to be when it comes to Islam, just Christianity.
ISIS and folks like you are the best argument for atheism.But there are a few on this site and elsewhere who say they are the same as Christians, aren't there?
No, the white Christians/non-Christians [who said you had to be Christian to hold slaves?] US citizens were the consumers, in that analogy. But the slave industry itself, like the US drug industry, was reliant on black Africans slave traders [suppliers, technically].
In much the same manner the drug industry is reliant the Mexican drug cartels. Nearly a perfect analogy.

You remind me that cataracts are the third leading cause of blindness. Religion and politics being the first.
Meh...pikers. Read about what the Catholics did in Mexico.ISIS barbarity:
dropping into sulphuric acid. tossing off buildings. setting fire to people in cages. crucifixions . heart eating.
torture for cigarette/cell phone possession (Mosul). Mass executions/beheadings -putting heads on pikes. recruitment of children for suicide bombing
ethnic cleansings...historic site destruction (wanton)...
these are routine -not extraordinary....There is no force on the earth that compares to this
well torture is as old as mankindMeh...pikers. Read about what the Catholics did in Mexico.
Your religious bigotry. Christian History is littered with murderers bearing crosses and thieves holding Bibles. Do you condemn all Christians for some of the most horrific mass murders in human history? No, yet seem all to willing to condemn all of Islam for the terrorism and wars of a few, that are evil to be sure, but also child's play compared to the evils of past Christian history.What have I said or done to make you say that?
oh no and the U.S. under the George W. Bush administration had absolutely no blood or their hands and never tortured anyone and those tens of thousands of innocent Iraqis didn't die from collateral damage from the U.S. immoral invasion of Iraq but died from embarrassement at annoying the greatest nation on earth.well torture is as old as mankind
but on the planet now ISIS would be the most depraved.
It's the current "radical ( don't say Islamic) violent extremist" winner.

Just stop it, stop it now. Quit playing the holier than though hypocrit.

And did you bother with silly things like proof when you posted YOUR claim?.....
