RE: First to own a black slave for life
I remember hearing about this recently also. Not in as much detail as you wrote. It was kind of in passing, at the tail end of the discussion. Maybe on the radio. But I never remembered hearing it in school. It would have definitly stuck with me. But maybe that was the point.
Another part of History that I never learned about in the classroom but have been hearing about lately is the Irish slave trade in " The New World. " Example: http://www.irishcentral.com/roots/histor...93261.html " Any man who thinks he can be happy and prosperous by letting the American Government take care of him; better take a closer look at the American Indian." - Henry Ford |
