Discussions of slavery in media are always framed as white on black. The effect in the public memory is that this is the only instance of the institution. Indigenous peoples took slaves from opposing tribes. I have a middle eastern friend who showed me his family photo from the 50s. There was a lone white person in the photo. Turns out he was a slave from modern day Yugoslavia. The term "Slavic" refers to enslaved people. The Slavic countries are all white. I continually read about black on black slavery in Darfur and Chad. The framing of all slavery discussions as white on black is historically inaccurate and intellectually dishonest. The result has been a cottage industry in the demonization of white people. I submit that white folk are no more or less evil than any others
