I Have a Few Questions

I hope I didn't come off as being "pious and above-the-fray."

Slavery was just the most obvious form of racism. There is plenty of blame to spread around for it, including to those African tribes that sold their own people into slavery (from what I understand). Racism is still here today, but in a more disguised and twisted form, and it's not just white people who are racist, by any means.
