White Missouri woman's slave cabin sparks race talk

[Chris]

I don't know. You'd have to ask them.

Yet you're being asked because you made the claim.

History of serfdom is interesting -- Unfree Labor: American Slavery and Russian Serfdom. My ancestors (Russian Jews) were partially enserfed in 1828-1858. Russian Serfs were freed in 1861. Descendants of Russian serfs got reparations in 1918 -- after the 1917 Communist Revolution.

American Slavery was a tremendous injustice against African Americans. Unlike descendants of Russian serfs, African Americans did not get anything and still face racism.

Is this the reason the Jews changed there homeland from the USSR to Israel after WW2?

I don't owe them anything. No one alive is owed anything.

You have absolutely no idea how DNA works!

Not what the thread is about. Sell that social justice elsewhere, please.

I can not speak for African Americans. I do not know much.

I know that in 1918, Russian Nobles had to give up most of their property to the State and descendants of serfs. I am proud of my great-grandparents.

Mainly because Anti-Semitism came back to USSR in late 1940s.

[Lummy]

Yet you're being asked because you made the claim.

It's a completely valid claim. You know you've heard it a thousand times, with another 10 million yet to come. Forever, in other words.

[Mr.Soxes]

Why does this seem to keep happening?
