Didn't slavery in north America start around 1619 and end in like 1865? Not quite 300 years.

The only point I was trying to make is that you can't hold the USA accountable for slavery that took place before there was a USA.

If you count Barbados, West Indies, and Caribbean then you got systematic slavery by the mid 1560s.
In the "new world."

You beat me to it. All of these supposed history experts giving the LSU guy shite apparently think that the slave boats from Africa got here about 30 years before Columbus did...at least the guy with the 400 year crack.
