A little added context for ya... that nigger was the first "person" in America to own a blavk slave and at the time he purchased that slave, he already owned white slaves.
Bonus fax: according the 1860 census, 66% of American slave OWNERS were black.
I think its important to point out that blacks bought their family members as slaves to get them out of slavery. I assume that this accounted for the overwhelming number of black slave owners.
I doubt too many had really large plantations. But there might have been a few middle class light skinned Don Lemon types that owned a few George Floyds.
Most slaves were not plantation workers but house servants. This claim that it "must have been" family buying family reeks of leftist factoidism. It must be true because it is a woke claim. My experience with black people makes me doubt that they would be spending money to help family. If they had the money to buy a slave they would buy one to work for them. Black people do not have loyalty to each other. Their collectivism is always self interested. They will fight others in a group, but they will never sacrifice for the group.
What a lot of people forget is that for many, slavery was a general upgrade in life.
Another note worth mentioning, while there were for sure some sadistic fucks who owned slaves...
Good slaves were not cheap. Do you know what a farmer does to an expensive piece of farm equipment that's necessary for the operation of his farm?.... Looks after it
