      No but then Caucasian people didn't get forcibly taken from their home countries, chained with people that couldn't speak their language, and had their heritage disintegrated - hence a more amorphous 'black' identityhttps://twitter.com/JuliaHB1/status/1020244502722859008 …

      Why should they? Should Caucasian people celebrate the success of other Caucasian people simply because they’re white? This is utterly bizarre. https://twitter.com/DavidLammy/status/1020231313201270784 …

      African slavery was horrific and unjustifiable but slavery has been a feature of human history across the world and not the unique crime of white Europeans.

          Since everyone's coming in, let's send them to somewhere more in-depth than Twitter. Because white slavery sure didn't result in Europe being seen as a "Dark Continent"https://www.huffingtonpost.com/dwayne-wong-omowale/why-our-african-identity-matters_b_8947996.html …

          The problem with the victim/grievance mentality is how far back do you look? 1. Arabs, Turks and Africans have a dark history of abuse and slavery. 2. Things go round in circles, white Europeans used to be the victims. http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/british/empire_seapower/white_slaves_01.shtml …

          Slavery has been turned into a black vs white thing and it is WRONG , it was African tribes that sold other tribal members to the Arab slave traders who then started to sell to the Europeans it was common practice to take slaved from the people you had just defeated .

          Slavery can be traced back to the earliest records, such as the Mesopotamian Code of Hammurabi (c. 1860 BC), which refers to it as an established institution, and it was common among ancient people.©Wiki

          The Egyptians were using slaves way before that. Its a pointless question really, but it does all some groups to feel victimised despite never having actually been slaves.

          Indeed members of black communities were complicit in enabling slave trade. Perhaps similar to modern day slave trade.

          Hundreds of thousands of Europeans living in coastal areas were kidnapped & sold into slavery in North Africa by Barbary Corsairs during the 16th & 17th centuries.

          Yes, and other societies are responsible for interrogating their own histories as we are responsible for ours. Not sure what that has to do with African people celebrating the success of other African people through.
