Yes, White Folks Know a Lot About the Evils of Slavery

White men with Bibles were the ones to argue successfully for the abolition of criminal kidnap-slavery.

US Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett wants the Trump administration to keep Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion polices because no white man was ever enslaved, she claims.

Writes Raymond Ibrahim, "In response to Crockett’s rhetorical questions—“which white man was dragged out of their homes!”—we can safely say that at least 4.25 million Europeans were enslaved by non-whites (Mongols and Arabs) between just 1450-1780.

"Records for specific years also exist. In 1438, Bartolomeo de Giano, an Italian Franciscan described the Turkic slave raids throughout the Balkans. From Hungary, 300,000 were enslaved and “carried off in just a few days.” From Serbia and Transylvania, 100,000 were “led away in iron fetters tied to the backs of horses … [and] women and children were herded by dogs without any mercy or piety. If one of them slowed down, unable to walk further because of thirst or pain, O Good Jesus! she immediately ended her life there in torment, cut in half.”

"The slave markets of the Ottoman sultanate were for centuries so inundated with European flesh that children sold for pennies, “a very beautiful slave woman was exchanged for a pair of boots, and four Serbian slaves were traded for a horse.”

More than 21 plague-vaccine candidates are under development, spanning mRNA, self-amplifying RNA, recombinant protein, viral-vector, live-attenuated and other technologies.
