You do realize that first the native Americans were enslaved but because they knew the territory so well they easily escaped. Then slaves were brought to America. Some were traded, and some escaped. But together the natives and slaves walked the trail together, when they wanted to give up it was the slave that propped them up and carried them through. Then once reaching a new destination, they were all enslaved. It was the white man who started it all. And if nobody came to this country in the first place there would be no bad history to dwell on. Why live like history is now?
