What does this mean
- CaptainNegative 3y agoThere's a long-standing effort by Nation of Islam (the American hate group that is only nominally Islamic) to rewrite the history of slavery in the US as largely orchestrated by and for Jews. Nonetheless the actual numbers show that they "possessed far fewer slaves than non-Jews in every British territory in North America and the Caribbean" [1] though the reason why is still not well understood.
