Appreciate it. Like I said Palestinians COULD have engaged in the Arab slave trade but I have not seen solid sources yet. But me? I personally don't consider Palestinians/Levantines or North Africans to be TRUE Arabs.Good response, you seem knowledgeable on this topic. I think you’ll admit that all the people you mentioned identified as Arabs whether or not they were from the Arabian peninsula.
Nope. Can't compare the two. All White-Americans benefited from slavery either directly or indirectly. In fact poor Whites were most angry when slavery ended. The Gulf Arab states made the most money off the Arab slave trade.If we accepted your explanation couldn’t most White Americans say they have nothing to do with slavery because slave ownership was limited to an elite group of British descendants?
Be careful when addressing the Arab slave trade because its a favorite argument from cacs to deflect blame from them when it comes to African colonization. Now not saying Arabs were squeaky clean because their form of slavery was just as bad or WORSE than the Euros but.... We just gotta be careful.
Yes. ADOS/Haitian.Just out of interest are you black (not being sarcastic)?
