13312874, The "indentured servants" comments a boondoogle because he's right

He's actually exhibiting that he knows the history because the first black people to arrive to the colonies close to Jamestown in 1619, arrived as indentured servants (maybe in name and of course many scholars debate it).

People from the area might know that (like myself) or people who have studied up on it, but the twitter masses reacting to that statement don't.

Anyway, seems to me dude was trying to display his knowledge of that history, not necessarily downplay the status of those black people.
