Blacks were not tortured on a daily basis. In fact the vast majority were treated much better than our current history books want to portray. The slave owners did not break the bones of their slaves nor did they perform other medical experimemts on them like the Nazi’s did on the Jews. I am not trying to imply that slavery was right or justified. I am saying that they were two distinct and different occurrences that cannot really be compared as equal.
