Black slavery looks like racism. The white races would treat any other race inhumanely, given the opportunity.
What the bible says or not says is irrelevant. The issue is that the Curse of Ham has been applied to blacks to justify their enslavement and persecution. Although slavery is not new, no slavery prior to the Atlantic Slave Trade was as brutal and dehumanizing.
The Isrealites in Eygpt.
Not even close.
The Jews think it was horrible.
You think that African slavery was horrible.
For the thousands of years for the Jews and hundreds of years for the New World Africans, it is a Generational Pre-occupation. Keeping it alive. It is a Generational Curse and should be in the History Books.
Christ sets such things free-a new mind.
