      Slavery came in alle colors though,in Europe or at least in what is now Holland for instance it was normal for rich farmers tot have so called lijfeigenen and horigen..Those were poor people they could just pick from the street and enslave.
      Same went for the people that had to work on the ships that brought the African slaves to the West Indies and what is now the US.
      They werd treated even worse because they were cheaper and easier to replace, the slavetraders only had to pick them up from the street.
      The kings and leaders of African tribes sold their defeated enemies to the European traders and profited a lot from the slavetrade.
      It was always more of a 'those who have' against a 'those who have not' than a black or white thing...
      Still doesn't change a thing about all the damage slavetrade has done and still does.

    !!LYRICS!! Because I want my brothers and sisters to know what the word is . Much love ♡
    What men won't and what they will
    Working for a dollar bill
    Sad to see the old slave mill
    Is grinding slow, but grinding still...
    Walking home, a youth gets killed
    Police free to shoot at will
    Sad to see the old slave mill
    Is grinding slow, but grinding still...
    Nine to five you know the drill
    Weekends are a short lived thrill
    Sad to see the old slave mill
    Is grinding slow, but grinding still...
    Cup runith over till it spill
    Take until they've had their fill
    Sure hurts to see the old slave mill...
    Is grinding slow, but grinding still....

    At 26 I dropped out of school to chase success. At 27 I’ve made $100k but it feels like I work on a slave ship. “Weekends are a short lived thrill” I work 6 days a week there are no real weekends.
    Chasing success is a very dangerous game. You may win but you may not be happy. Find something you love or enjoy to do and let success find you.
