Anything Tribalism or Indigenous, they don't want to teach.

I tell people that africa's birth and existence was a tribal one, and then the Arabians and Europeans came, which totally changed the dynamic of the African continent.


Also, Native Americans and Indigenous people had slaves before Europeans came over. However, it was not based on the perception of race inferiority, it was based on war with other tribes. War captives were enslaved, and often used to trade for goods with other tribes, and later on used to trade with Europeans. So native americans did participate in the slave trade, which lead to them being enslaved.....which didn't last for a long time, because they refused to stay enslaved and would constantly rebel.

Slavery has nothing to do with race or what ethnicity you're from. It's simply a country or tribe having the power and resources to conquer and enslave another country or another tribe. It's basically a byproduct of war, and is used as a tool. And slavery was born out of tribalism.
