The joke about slavery that nobody talks about is that blacks were selling their people to whites.
They weren't being round up like wild animals in the jungles.
They were sold... by their own.
I pointed this out to a kid in houston that was bitching about whitey owing him "dem bills" because of slavery, he told me I was full of shit. I then asked him if he was ever a slave, and he told me it didn't matter because if one black man was a slave "den we all been slaves yo".
His logic is that white people owe the entire black race a comfortable life because people that may not even have been related to them were slaves, just because they were the same skin color.
Derp.
