        Slaves are the eurpean too. They were sold as Saqaliba in islamic society. From saqaliba is origin of word "slave".

        The root of the word slave is Latin/Greek. The word has nothing to do with Islamic society. Sadly, every continent has had people enslaved.

        Sadly, the Islamic world does not acknowledge their slaveholding past, or build museums to commemorate, or examine that past.

        Slavery has NEVER been abolished in the U.S. Just look at the "wages" that both State and Federal inmates get paid. If that's not slave wages, than Idk what is?!!

        How do you figure that? By pointing out the fact that a lot of aspects of Slavery are still being practiced in the U.S. Penal system throughout the country? Care to explain?

        White people, motivated by their amazing altruism, were the first race to outlaw slavery! In contrast, millions of people in Africa are still enslaved.
