Vandy rape case: "That's for 300 years of slavery, bitch"

Didn't slavery in north America start around 1619 and end in like 1865? Not quite 300 years.
If you count Barbados, West Indies, and Caribbean then you got systematic slavery by the mid 1560s.
In the "new world."
Brazil didn't outlaw slavery until 1888.

And they didn't outlaw "preserving my manly honor" as a defense when you killed your wife and/or her lover until maybe 1988.
But Brazilians aren't Caucasian, so I don't know how relative their record on slavery is.
