I have noticed movies generally like to talk about how bad slavery was and how it is great that it is over, then they mention that it happened to africans as whole??? Where are they getting this information from?
The historical rules of slavery regardless of empire was war booty, there were only four times where slavery was exclusively one type of people, the slavery by the americans in the cross atlantic slavery of west-african peoples, the slavery of the israelites by the ancient egyptians, the slavery of the eastern european slavics by the ottoman empire, the slavery of south asian indians by the dutch/british in south africa.
There are people who are descended from slaves all over the world from various backgrounds, why are the hollywood movies only ever made about the igbo west africans that were enslaved by the americans and the brits?
