Black People Owned Slaves, Too!
<p>In my recent piece, “<a href="https://medium.com/zora/the-big-lie-of-slavery-a0b616499c24" rel="noopener">The Big Lie of Slavery</a>,” I pointed out that the number of Black people who died as a result of the slave trade was millions higher than we were incorrectly taught.</p>
<p>I typically get thoughtful responses to my essays, including ones that disagree with me. I tend to learn the most from those.</p>
<p>But this time in response, I got the following email:</p>
<p>“You know that Black Americans owned slaves, too, don’t you?”</p>
