I don't think it was all about jealousy even though there may have been a little bit of that hidden in there. I don't feel they had any respect for black people and hardly saw them as human, more as 'creatures'. I think they wanted the big strong black people to do all the labor for free, not much more than that. Maybe the fat little white guy in the plantation house was jealous that his slaves were in better physical shape but I don't think jealousy was the reason behind keeping them in the first place! They honestly believed the black people were stupid savages since they didn't speak English or follow those customs. I do think that those slave owners feared them though and knew that the slaves were capable of much more. It was a crime to teach slaves to read because they wanted to keep them dumb so they couldn't 'out smart' the Master. It's probably why they were treated so badly (whippings, etc.) , the slave masters were afraid and needed to try to scare the slaves into submission. It was probably very frightening to own slaves back then. You treat someone like crap for years and beat them constantly and see that they still have the will to live, it shows how strong the person really is. You would have to know that you were in over your head and the only way to 'control' them would be with ridiculous and brutal punishment.

No. It was in history books. It wasnt just white men. You think its just white man because we're in America and slavery was part of our history. Plus America was one of the last large countries to abolish slavery over the past few centuries, so the memory is recent. Mostly all societies did this to other groups for different reasons: 1) their religion made them feel superior to others (like in the Bible, the non-Christians were deemed inferior because they werent children of God) so the European, Christian man took this seriously and hard, plus having different cultures and languages helped it on; 2) greed; 3) cheap labor which ties to the inferior, superior thing (if you didnt think a person was a person, you treat them like an object and use them); and 4) their advanced weapons and military strategies coupled with their alliance with large, powerful nations.
Mainly, its how they were taught. Im just glad we are taught to be more open and compassionate for all (humans, animals, environment). It shows how much we have grown as humans.

as quickly as lower back a dumb remark. certainly the guy with the biggest penis is a white guy from brooklyn. His call is Jonah Falcon, and his penis is 13.5 inches. So what the hell are u speaking approximately black adult males have it the biggest? certainly documents prepare that black and white adult males are those with the biggest, and it quite is hispanics and asians that are at the back of whilst it includes length. So the commenet which you made isn't real, and it quite is purely in step with stereotypes. And it replaced into exceptionally England who enslaved united states of america of america. And besides, many blacks enslaved their very own human beings, even throughout the time of on the instant there is slavery in Africa, no longer led to via the "white guy", yet particularly via Africans themselves. they are enslaving 5 3 hundred and sixty 5 days previous females. Please do somewhat diagnosis earlier leaping to such idotic conclusions. Have a competent nighttime.

White men weren't jealous, they were just plain lazy. Instead
working hard and building wealth for themselves they were
just insecure people who blame black people for all their
problems in the world. In other words they had to step on
someone to make themselves look good. This is what
middle class america does today because they cant handle
their own financial siuations. The difference is now both black
and white middle class americans are blaming each other
while the rich are getting richer. So instead of taking control
of their financial futures they just whine like babies. It's a sad
situation because they spawn most of the racial fustrations
we have today.

I sure which you could go live in the Congo for about a decade. According to the 'Black Almanac', 95% of all slaves who were imported during the Transatlantic Slave Trade were imported by HISPANICS, all the ships were JEWISH owned, and all the human cargo were captured in the jungles by ARABS and AFRICAN chieftains.

Jealous of them...uh, no.
It was all about economics, free labor to make the slave owners wealthy.

No, I don't think so. I believe he just wanted someone to do the hard labor. Simple as that.

1.) I've never met a White person who was jealous of a Black for any reason, much less because of how they treat "bitches and ho's." (O.J.Simpson...).
2.)Blacks enslaved Blacks, Whites set them free.
3.)You're just trying to justify your skin fetish.
