If they still owned them it is slavery. Don't try make owning a person sound good.
not all white peoples are bad
Yeah, but it wasn't necessarily ownership moreso than it was absorption of one group into another. African slaves tended to come about when two tribes or kingdoms fought and the winner would either kill the captives or the captives were to give their hand in service in exchange for mercy. African slaves in some villages became integral parts of the society, they would marry and have families and not be separated from them at a whim, they would essentially become their own little ethnic group within the nation that conquered them although subdued by the slave status. It was only in kingdoms/empires that had more outside influences where you'd see more familiar traits that we'd associate with the slavery we know of now. European and Arab styled slavery was no comparison to slavery in Africa, those forms depopulated the continent and set it up for further exploitation.

Which surrounding "African" groups invaded or conquered the Igbo/Ibo to send them into slavery? and Why were the Igbo so susceptible to slavery?
Deuteronomy 28
68 And the Lord shall bring thee into Egypt again with ships, by the way whereof I spake unto thee, Thou shalt see it no more again: and there ye shall be sold unto your enemies for bondmen and bondwomen
Exodus 20
2 I am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
Deuteronomy 28
45 Moreover all these curses shall come upon thee, and shall pursue thee, and overtake thee, till thou be destroyed; because thou hearkenedst not unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which he commanded thee:
46 And they shall be upon thee for a sign and for a wonder, and upon thy seed for ever.
47 Because thou servedst not the Lord thy God with joyfulness, and with gladness of heart, for the abundance of all things;
48 Therefore shalt thou serve thine enemies which the Lord shall send against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in want of all things: and he shall put a yoke of iron upon thy neck, until he have destroyed thee.
49 The Lord shall bring a nation against thee from far, from the end of the earth, as swift as the eagle flieth; a nation whose tongue thou shalt not understand;
50 A nation of fierce countenance, which shall not regard the person of the old, nor shew favour to the young:

True..Im not a cac. Black African kingdoms sold other blacks who were their prisoners, off to the white man. Theses cacs didnt suprman their way in an took them nikkas. If it wasn't for that then the slave trade wouldn't have been so sucessful. Truth hurts doesn't it?
make it sound as nice as you want I still look at as an horrible pratice done by any cultrue. Just because they did it nicer then whites and Arabs does not abslove them of the fact that they owned a person which strips the slave of dignity and freedom.
You are a Hamite, so this doesn't pertain to you.
Dress like power rangers and get your facts from a cac King James bible brehs.
I'm not making it sound nice, I'm just tellin you how it was. African slavery didn't have the dehumanizing trait of other forms of slavery. Those "slaves" were more like domestic servants rather than chattel property gettin whipped and beaten. African "slavery" is incomparable breh, I'm not sayin its the right thing but it also isn't equal to euro cac/sand cac slavery.
What stopped these people from leaving and being free after they were captured?
There had to be some form of discipline you are making it seem they could have gotten up and walked away.
Well, their village was destroyed for one, for two the price of staying alive was being bound to the conquering group. I'm not saying it was right or wrong, but that there were levels to this slavery shyt. The culture and modes of production in Africa made it so that chattel slavery never came to be except for a very small minority of kingdoms. So as I was saying, slavery in Africa was a way of absorbing a conquered group into the conquering group.
i am against slavery at any level fukk the purpose or their reasoning.
