Loretta;
Your suggestion does not fit the generally accepted, and politically
correct, interpretation of the institution of slavery being nothing more than white
people whipping, raping and exploiting black Africans. Evidence to the
contrary (such as the WPA slave narratives) is not credible to the academically
trained historians on this list.
I appreciated your input, however. Very enlightening.
