Yes they are

i mean children and wives were property as well

Rich people knew what they were doing, they just enjoyed the luxury too much to care.

Syke! Racists care about (already born) children just as much they care about people of color

I think conflating racists and slave owners is a bit disingenuous. The slave owners would have done the same thing to white people if there weren't any convenient Africans to exploit.

They weren't racist, they're were just incredibly lazy and selfish, and also possibly racist but in a disconnected way.
