I never said that only Africans were enslaved though. You want to move on but you seem to lack a historical understanding of how slavery still impacts people today. I am outraged at all racism and all slavery, no matter who the people are. So not only are you wrong about me being hypocritical. You have a poor point to make if your only comeback is that we should move on. I suggest you read about the impact slavery has on the lives of people in the modern era.

Here is an excellent resource about the topic:
