The British colonies in North America received about 10% of the total.

Did you know that blacks owned slaves in America including whites?

Did you know the first legal case in America legalizing slavery was won by a black slave owner?

Did you know 3K blacks owned slaves in New Orleans alone?

Will the descendants of white slaves qualify for reparations from the descendants of black slave owners?
