The slaves didn't learn skills. It was the other way around. They taught skills. They taught blacksmithing, sailing, rice farming, shyt farming in general, cattle herding, carpentry, and almost anything else. White people, especially in the Carolinas, we're sent to learn from slaves.They aren't trying to touch the Holocaust, you're right. As for slavery, look up some of the things pushed for by conservatives they want to 'All Lives Matter' the subject by talking about the Barbary trade Irish indentured servants. They talk of how American slaves 'benefitted' from slavery by 'learning skills'. They want to eliminate mention of 'white supremacy' and 'systemic racism'.
If the legacy of systemic racism still exists, it begs the question of what needs to be done about it.
These fukking losers are really trying to spin history.
