Surviving industrial level mass-enslavement is now considered the winning side of colonialism or you still don't consider native Americans and African descendants as people?
- asdff 2y agoWell surviving it till today sure beats being part of a lineage that was snuffed out by some evil slave owner in 1846.
- busterarm 2y agoWhen colonizers first arrived in the Americas, ritualistic human sacrifice was common practice and contact between different tribes meant violence and death. Also the African slave trade largely existed off the back of tribes conquering each other and selling the losers into slavery, which is also commonly how slavery works back into antiquity. The alternative to being sold into slavery is that they kill you.
