Slaves did not build this country, also interesting fact, only 1.5% of African Americans today are descendants of slaves, only 1% of whites today are descendants of slave owners. Also the first slaves weren’t actually technically slaves in 1619, they were indentured servants who were going to be given freedom after 7 years of work, slavery didn’t become a thing until the 1660s. Most slaves picked cash crops like cotton, sugar cane, and only 1.4% of whites owned slaves.
