    You are not purchased, branded or beaten against your will.

    You vote, can seek grievances against anyone in society, you can own property. No one can take your children and sell them, rape your wife and the rest of society not bat an eye. The Law of the land does not wholly ignore any grievances and you are allowed to serve on a jury and testify and if you’re in the USA you are not denied owning weapons or voting.

    You were taught to read and write. Your history was not denied you, more or less.

    You guys are a joke with this “slavery was good” shenanigans.

    Even if a majority of slaves had it easy, the lack of freedom is incomparable to what people have today.

    As we can see throughout history they don't really function well when they have a lot of freedom though.

    They function as well as possible for their standards.

    Or perhaps there is a theory presenting slavery in America as a good deed ?

    It was a good deed because it got them out of Africa. Smart colored guys like Jesse Lee Peterson understand that.

    I think a good deed is supposed to be intentional.

    Either way, it turned out well enough for their descendants.

    Correct.

    But Sméagol is about as dense as they come.

    State sponsored segregation, Jim Crow, KKK, and then later LBJ's free stuff isn't really a fair fight. Nigerians in the USA are the highest demographic with a graduate degree. Family values first, get married then have kids etc.

    Yes.

    There are a lot of Creole of Color (Creole being French culture) Blacks who are very well represented in education.

    If anyone is interested take a look down in southeastern and southwestern Louisiana.
