That was the point. Bc the original xtians (a sector of Jews) were the niggers of their world. In that they were a conquered ppl - enslaved too, at times. The whole point was that Jesus and the promise of salvation was their way out of the hell inflicted on them by the Romans (and some of their fellow Jews). Which is why our enslaved ancestors were attracted (massa insisted but they were all about it after a while bc the lessons about freedom from bondage and shit resonated - Black Liberation Theology and all that jazz).
