some slaves were white

In fact half the europeans transported by ship from the 1600's were brought over as slaves. Indentured servitude.

Africans were also Indentured servitude, until some black serving another black chose to not fulfill the contract and was sentenced to slavery for the rest of his life. That worked as a juridical pattern setting model and eventually so many blacks served in slavery that it became the norm.

Meanwhile, Africans enslaved Africans, Europeans enslaved Europeans, Asians enslaved Asians and Arabs and Jews enslaved everyone and drove the global slave trade for ages. For some leftist racist reason though, it's just white people anywhere in the world somehow being solely responsible for slavery reparations in the form of multiculturalism etc due to the short period of African-American slave trade by Jews.

All?

No, not all of them. Only the ones brought over the Atlantic to English colonies, where they quickly replaced the Irish slaves (which were about to go extinct on Ireland) and the Africans were deemed more valuable workforce because of their stronger bodies better evolved for sunshine. The French had their own thing going on in Haiti etc, but since the topic was the American slave trade, it's the former English colony legacy being relevant.

Tatars in Russia also would come here to Finland to pillage a village at a time, taking the most beautiful children and murdering everyone else, then selling the children who survived the trip as child sex slaves to Arab harems.

Sweden also did evil things to our people (among others) and that's a reason they're having their version of white guilt going on so strong. First their Viking kings were slain when they tried to raid the Häme pelt trade center (a single pelt was about as valuable as a small farm and a horse) and instead the troops of the Finnish chieftains trapped the Vikings in some stream, killed most of them and destroyed most of their "navy". The ones surviving burned some unrelated Finnish town to the ground as a revenge and returned to Sweden telling their old Norse gods had abandoned them. They then converted to christianity and got the Pope's knights as reinforcement to be crusade conquerers of Finland (including mid and north parts of what's considered Sweden now). Then once America was discovered, they had their short-lived period of "New Sweden" in the bay of modern-day Maryland, Delaware and Virginia (around the bay of Baltimore etc). They brought Finns there since being a Finn was made outlaw status in Sweden, which is how they did their ethnical cleansing of the western part of their kingdom (modern-day Sweden). The Finns however wouldn't stay slaves in the colonies and instead headed for the forests and made friends and families with the American natives. It's those Finns who brought the log house building tradition to America with them from Finland.

What a lovely and insightful answer!

To top your story with a cherry: The russian kings were Swedes :D

Sweden also ethnic cleansed Skåne when they conquered that area from Denmark.

The russian kings were Swedes

Actually, their dynasty (Rurik's dynasty) is genetically Finnish. Swedes just took the honor after conquering Finland and therefore declaring everything Finnish Swedish if it was positive, otherwise it was just negative. Finland/Novgorod held up well against the Mongols, whereas the rest of modern-day Russia was laid into wastelands by the Mongols, so in the 1400s, it was easy expansion into vast areas since Mongols had retreated and there was a vacuum of power and population.

When you say this do you think the Finnish are/were mongoloid/samoid or nordics?

Also do you have a source on this?

I was thinking more along the Africans that raided coastal Europe and kidnapped the White Europeans and kept as slaves

The first slave owner in America was black and he had to sue for the right to own slaves so he really wanted them.

[–]peety 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

Yeah, what I read about Anthony Johnson, is that the 'slave' he didn't let go went to work for someone else and ol' Tony sued the fella his slave worked for and won the wages the slave made.

That was nice of him. I’m sure he was just holding onto the money for safe keeping.

I'm a bit surprised someone was that smart that long ago, was black
