happen to be fifty one years old and I remember my childhood just fine. So your dumb fricking argument doesn't hold water. Just like the stat you posted that said 49% percent of a states population were slave owners. So how about you Go frick Yourself you lying sack of shite. If

I wouldn't't admit my age & then post something so ignorant. You didn't disprove my assertion that you are an idiot with it.

It's not my problem you wish to find the proof positive your ilk would like to find in slavery because of a few hundred Slave Narratives retold 70-80 years later by Seniors who were children at the time.

It's not my problem that you cannot understand perspective .

Ariel Castro Kidnapped 3 women & abused them sadistically for 10 years in his basement. Castro's 7/ 8 year old daughter cried herself to sleep every night begging to go back to her 'happy' household.

In 70 -80 years I doubt if that child's twisted memory of her 'happy' home with the 3 women being locked upstairs ,raped, beaten to miscarriage , pistol whipped ,not allowed outside',etc.. Would be of equal value to the ADULTS in that house.

Jaycee Dugard's children(who loved & wanted to visit the Garridos in jail) will have fond memories of their childhood with their sex slave Mother abused & living imprisoned in squalor in a tent in Garridos backyard. I bet their childhood recollections in 70.80 years won't square up with Jaycee Dugard's ADULT perspective.



Most Historians who study these 70-80 year old recollections of Mostly Children understand this & read many of these Narratives accordingly. It takes Authors ,like your Precious piece of Neo-Confederate Propaganda ,to use/abuse some of these people recollections as some proof of the benign nature of slavery.

Booker T Washington was the age of most of these WPA Slaves & admits he barely remembers his childhood nor understood what was going on around him. .A few fond memories of him playing, Mother sneaking him food, doing menial tasks,Celebrations by adults(that confused him) after Slavery ended.
