Contrary to leftists lies America wasn't based on slavery

What the left is trying to do is convince our youth that America is the only place that ever allowed slaves and that as a result America is evil.

The problem is that not only is the slave trade still going on today in the Arab world but the vast majority of Africans who were enslaved didn't go to the US.

Also it turns out that historically far more Blacks were enslaved by Muslim countries than by countries in the Americas. Muslims enslaved roughly 17 million Blacks vs the 12.5 million who were shipped across the Atlantic.

Leftists are saying that the Revolutionary war was waged to protect slavery in the US which is amazingly dishonest.  America revolted because of oppressive English imperialistic policies.  The vast majority of Americans who supported independence didn't own slaves so why would they risk poverty and death for a cause they had no stake in?

That's just another Democrat Big Lie to cover up the racist history of the Democrat party.  If America is all about slavery then why did America fight its bloodiest war to end slavery?

The reality is that Democrats fought for slavery and they fought to oppress Blacks after slavery was ended.  

America isn't all about slavery and oppressing Blacks but the Democrat party is.

Even today Blacks can't get a decent education in Democrat run cities and thousands of Blacks are shot in Democrat run cities and Democrats do nothing to stop it.  Clearly Democrats today don't car any more about Blacks than the Democrats who fought for slavery did.

None of this makes slavery in America an ok thing but to pretend that at the time slavery started in America it was some sort of oddity is clearly wrong.  At the time, and for thousands of years prior to then, slavery was part of life.  A huge portion of people in the Roman Empire were slaves for example.

What's interesting though is that the Democrats who are condemning the US for slavery belong to the same party that fought the Civil War to preserve slavery, that founded the KKK, that fought school integration, and that instituted all the Jim Crow laws.

But with the usual amazing hypocrisy of leftists Democrats are saying that it's Republicans, who freed the slaves, who are at fault.

Clearly if America is all about slavery, which is what the Democrats are saying, then we wouldn't have fought a war, the bloodiest war in American history, to end it. Republicans wouldn't have passed the 14th Amendment, and we wouldn't have elected a Black man as President twice.

But truth is no impediment to Democrats trying to diss America.
