A) GEOGRAPHICAL MIGRATION
It is FALLACIOUS AND UNTRUE that africans (blacks' ancestors) COULD NOT HAVE emigrated en masse to America without slavery.
IF HUMAN SLAVERY WERE OUTLAWED IN THE EARLY DAYS,
* Africans would STILL have migrated en masse to America,
because the caucasians would STILL have imported africans en masse into America because africans would still remain the cheapest, most-preferred source of labour in the labour market
* the blacks would have achieved better rights and wealth
MANY DECADES EARLIER
(without the need to go through decades fighting to extricate themselves out of the slave status).
B) ABOLISHMENT OF SLAVERY
Secondly it is clear that ..
.. it is
NOT SLAVERY,
but the
ABOLISHMENT OF SLAVERY ..
.. that facilitated the new generations of blacks (and many other previously-enslaved races) to enjoy the current human rights, education and living standards etc.
*** So, imagine if slavery is still enforced in America today, the blacks children would still be deprived of the rights of salary, education, voting power etc. ***
C) CULTURAL IMPLICATIONS
Slavery stripped the African-American slaves from their culture, stolen and sold-off from the richest land of all the earth. They lost their languages, values, etc. It implemented schemes such as the Willie Lynch plan, which encouraged slave owners to turn slaves against one another and to discriminate against each other on the basis of skin color, etc. because slave owners knew that a united group of slaves would pose danger to him and the continuing existence of slavery. Furthermore, black men were forced to "breed" with multiple women to increase the slave population and to produce strong offspring, and were sold away from their families often. After hundreds of years of these practices that were FORCED onto this race, the Black community still suffers from schemes that were bred into their ancestors to this day.
CONCLUSION
So to answer your question,
NO, slavery itself DID NOT benefit the blacks.
YES, in fact it is the ABOLISHMENT OF SLAVERY
all over the world that allows slaves all over the world to have a better future.

When did slavery in New York end?
1833 with the Abolition of Slavery ActOopsThat act only applied to British colonies, for example in the West Indies. Except for a brief period in the 1700s there was no slavery in Britain in any exact sense unless one goes back to Roman times.In the Middle Ages there were serfs. They formed part of their lords' estates, were 'bound to the soil' but they couldn't be freely bought or sold. Serfdom prevented the free movement of people and after the Black Death it fell into disuse and was finally abolished in 1568.In the early 1700s some rich people bought black slaves as domestic servants and/or as a status symbol. This slavery was made illegal in 1774.For ClarificationIn 1772 it was ruled that slavery in England be illegal. The Slave Trade in and out of the British Empire was outlawed in 1807. The Abolition of Slavery Act of 1833 abolished slavery in the rest of the British Empire

They certainly do, although like any ethnic group, some might prefer a shower rather than a bath.

The only period in American history when this might have had any truth was during slavery, when southern black people did not have regular access to bathing; but in modern times, black people are as likely to be clean as anyone else.
