In 1900-1960 there were no slaves in the United States. Slavery was abolished in 1867, but there was a false view concerning slavery in the past from white supremacist philosophy. Until recently world maps showed nations that were typically populated by people who were not white as smaller in size than nations with white majorities. This displays a cultural view of the world. History books in the past also made reference to slavery as needed and that slaves were happy to be slaves. This is all wrong, of course, but it was a view of history that is skewed to a particular discriminatory philosophy. Often a society has cultural clues in other ways that state particular groups of people are less than the larger population. These can be as simple as a joke, a word, a picture, or an story, but they support the majority view that they are superior to the groups that they represent.
