Even slavery is still around.

while vilifying single Black mothers as “welfare queens”?

You forgot the "best" part: poor people renting apartments end up subsidizing wealthier people living in single-family homes, because suburban sprawl doesn't generate enough tax revenue per acre to fund the infrastructure and services it consumes. The white middle-class bigots doing the vilifying are, themselves, the real welfare queens!

There was also a tiny sliver of reconstruction for 12 years in there too. Then the killing sliver at the end of that.

there aren't even really extra steps considering slavery is perfectly legal in prisons according to the constitution

And after that, VRA, loving vs Virginia, fair housing act. Ending segregation was a gradual process that, by many metrics, still isn’t complete, but any date before 1964 or 1968 is a big fat lie.

Its worse than that slavery against native Americans was earlier even if we only count territory that would be in the united states eventually and only by Europeans and their descendants, and the last person sold as a slave and the "owner" not being sentenced to life without parole was in world war 2.

My ex's family would talk about what they'd do to a black person if one ever stepped foot on their property. Within the last 10 years btw.

I was going to comment something along these lines with the war on drugs, but legal slavery for imprisoned persons is a huge part of why the war on drugs was pursued and persists.

In August 1619, the first recorded slaves from Africa to British North America arrived at present-day Old Point Comfort, near the Jamestown colony, on a British privateer ship flying a Dutch flag.

It was when enslaved African people were first brought to Jamestown. Exactly when the start is more broadly is kind of harder to say since some things are more disputed

The arrival of the first captives to the Jamestown Colony, in 1619, is often seen as the beginning of slavery in America—but enslaved Africans arrived in North America as early as the 1500s.

It’s when England began colonizing the americas. Which is kind of arbitrary since there were slaves in the Americas before that and the founding of The United States of America was over 100 years later.

I really don't where this influx of mispelling misspelling paid as payed over the last few years has come from, but it seems to be becoming more and more common.

For what it's worth, "payed" is a very old nautical term that means to spread tar on the deck of a ship.

Nah you're right it's nonsense

While the Brits outlawed slavery around 1830s for themselves, they had no problem loading slaves onto their ships and smuggling them to the Americas for a good while after. Plus they openly supported the Confederacy throughout the Civil War to keep the cotton rolling in. And of course we don't need to mention colonialism that lasted until after WW2 now, do we? Of course the French, Dutch, Spanish, and Germans also colonized every inch of some else's dirt to exploit them back to the Stone Age. And there was little hesitation to kill any and all that objected the "civilizing" effect of European influence.

And slavery is ongoing even as we speak in certain parts of this world. But we do nothing and care little about that. As long as they keep it on the down low we need not be overly concerned.

Still in the Americas, I suppose?

England started ending slavery before the revolutionary war.

That's a major reason why the founding enslavers of USA concocted their own regime, but that reality has been mostly obscured.

Car brained audience

This is a dumb take. The horrors of capitalism aren't the same as the horrors of slavery.

The lashings are psychological now

That's the date the first enslaved Africans arrived in Virginia?

To me it looks more like the pinnacle of equality startend 1955 haha

Edit: which is even more dog shit
