1) I identify slavery as being a morally neutral institution
2) american slavery was not across the board "roots bad" Underscoring point one in history there are both good and bad examples of slavery
3) Even if it were "roots bad," in Korean people migrating to the US after 1950 we have examples of people who across the board had it "roots bad" when imperial Japan annexed the Korean peninsula after WWI, Kill all the royal families enslaved their children and put them to work in their own family's farms for 50+ years and still they Meaning the generation who were enslaved (being hated by the americans (back and white) who were at war with them) had nothing to over come outside their own pride. Which is why so many come here and by even our own standard become successful.
So you see I did answer your question with a history lesson. why? because you can't argue historical fact. Slavery doesn't/didn't just touch black skin. yet black people seem to be stuck on it, while other races simply move past it. again why? Harper Lee has a great answer.
"Setting a Watchman" was not conceived by Harper Lee. It was a typical excuse by white supremacists like Jefferson Davis and Thomas Jefferson.
I identify slavery as always morally evil. That is because freedom has great value to me. I must extend that to others.
I dare you to provide an example of "good slavery". Name one human being who this was "good" for.
God thinks it's fun to confuse primates. Larsen's God!
