Why are slaves black?

Africans or black people are less human, not as smart as whites and don’t have common sense. Blacks are lazy and want a free ride, this is why most blacks are democrats in the America’, even though they were freed by the Republican parties. Black are easily swayed and can’t think for themselves. In the days of slavey, in the Americas, they could not think for themselves or provide for their families, a lot like today. If it was not for government help & job placement by force, the black man/women Would all be on government assistance. Blacks in 1966 help pass a law that makes employers hire them matter if they can do the job or not. 13% of the USA Today is black and want to hold 75% of upper management jobs that they are not qualified to hold. Blacks even want to marry out side of there race, to help the children and their intelligence to increase.

Where does red hair in a black person come from?

Red hair is caused by having two recessive genes.The English elite used English and Irish slaves in the carribean, before using Black people. Whites were a large majoirty for a long time before the importation of Black people. This touch of White in the Black population causes red hair to appear ocasionally in Afro carribeans.The Irish were used as indentured workers/slaves in America, where African Americans are 23% White. This also gave an opportunity for people to mix, hence red hair in African Americans.


Is it true that white slaves were replaced by stronger healthier black slaves?

No. The reason why the majority of slaves before (and modern day as well!) are black is because the countries inhabited by black people are, on the whole, weaker, poorer and its citizens basically much more vulnerable of getting abducted or dragged into the slavery industry. The countries where white people live (e.g. United States, Europe e.t.c.) are MEDCs- they have money and the protection that those black countries in Africa don't. Those countries have a lot of slaves that are black today, too. But slavery long ago mostly happened when countries went to war. People from the country that lost would be enslaved by the people from the country that won. Since long ago, Africa has been conquered by other countries, not conquering other countries, so that should be why there were and are so many black slaves rather than white ones. Therefore, it is not true that white slaves were replaced by black slaves. Actually, I think the number of white slaves are increasing due to abduction and the sex slavery industry?
