Ever since The 1619 Project was published, Story 3 has become oddly popular on the Left. They apparently think (if that it the correct word) that slavery was something invented in 1619. On the contrary:
- Enslaving foreigners goes back at least to the Egyptian Empire.
- Kidnapping foreigners to enslave goes back at least to the Assyrian Empire.
- Western Europeans joined the party in the 15th century or earlier.
Zoe sent me here. Am in Brazil and cannot tell Santos from the rest of The Kleptocracy, so maybe you should brag, not confess. But the 1776 paper is the topic here. Congress later signed one called We the People which said in Article IV, Section 2, Clause 3 that it's OK to send US Marshals to chase Eliza from ice floe to ice floe lest she escape slavery. The newest sequel leave out the ice floes but includes the Colorado, Red and Rio Grande Rivers. Is that better?
