So we were in class in summer school, (cause I'm a failure) and our teacher told us to get in little groups and express our views on slavery.

So, we got into groups and we started talking.

Then we started talking about the fight that happened outside the bus stop. This was part of the convo that we had;

The fight was between a black guy and a white guy.

And the black guy kept saying; "You can't beat me white boy I'm black I know how to fight naturally! I'm tougher that all you crackers cause I'm black!"


So then, my friend just commented; "If blacks were so tough, then why were they our slaves? If they were so tough they could've fought back."


What do you guys think? :[

Whites had guns. And friends with guns.

But fighting ability isn't really racial.

Are you fucking serious? Your friend is an idiot. Tell her dumb ass, and I know she is, since after all, she is in summer school, no offense to you, to go open her textbook and read about slavery and how blacks were enslaved. I can't even be bothered to list all the reasons as to why her statement is stupid and incorrect.

*sighs* .. you can always tell who's an idiot, the minute they open their mouth

Yeah just as everyone else is saying, they had guns and in Africa, they didn't have any. So you can't really fight against something that could instantly kill you.

The black one is wrong for saying that because thats a stereotype and if he got beat up then he woulda made himself a target.

Your friend is wrong because now and slavery are two different times. Does she know the type of mind control the slave owners had over their slaves. They used the damn bible to minipulate them. It had nothing to do with fighting back and being tough. Back then blacks were way different.
