You are showing your ignorance. Sharecroppers were not exclusively "Black".
Slave owners were not all "White". Google "Black Slave Owners".
In the 50's I remember a Black teacher who drove by home every day in his 1956 Chevrolet, to work. My family didn't own an automobile.

With respect...this is the problem with attempting to argue with these clowns. You end up getting into some historical debate which, at its heart, has NOTHING to do with whether or not any rational person would equate owning a sports franchise with owning people.

Bringing up slavery, sharecropping, Jim Crow, etc is just a pharmaceutical grade non sequitor on their part designed to get you and others to argue a non point.

Don't be baited into that.

When they did, they frequently became tenant farmers or sharecroppers. By 1900, 36 percent of all white farmers in Mississippi were either tenant farmers or sharecroppers (by comparison, 85 percent of all black farmers in 1900 did not own the land they farmed).

Proven wrong again

Just log off dude

No they weren’t and those aren’t my numbers

So log off dude

They both owed money both ran land both rarely overcame poverty

You need to know the difference which is none. But hey you’re an insider of the Lakers so you’re either a liar or a con

Next thing you’ll try to tell us migrant farmers are people who hold land rights

I bet you also think rednecks were held in higher regard than slaves

So log off dude

his whole schtick is to never prove anything, just say shite like "if you think ______, then wow I can't help you." never any facts to disprove, just a "wow how could you possibly be that dumb" attitude and nothing more.

very much like boom, jr here

I didn't mean it as good.

It's just a schtick to play.

Because Stephen A is playing a part on tv

Surely we knew this was coming. In the age of "everything is racists!!!!", the concept of rich old White dudes "owning" a collective of physically primed black men was sure to rile up the Woke Scolds on Twitter...and LeBron.
