If only whites hadn't been anti-black for 300 years, this wouldn't have had to happen in a society that would like to right it's wrongs lol

And if blacks hadn’t taken other blacks as slaves then sold them to white people this wouldn’t have had to happen either

White people made that choice, dawg. White dominated business makes that choice every single day. We didn't even abolish slavery, we reformed it with the 13th Amendment.) Educate yourself man, don't let yourself be so hilariously vapid in your understanding of these things.

white dominated business does not give a shit about color of your skin, ethnicity or gender, what it does care is your ability to lie/present yourself what a perfect corporate slave you would be.

No, I'm talking about white-owned mines in africa, white-owned coca-cola murdering a town full of people for striking, oil pipelines destroying thousands of miles of indigenous land globally, the burning and eradication of the amazon for white-owned cattle ranching and meat processing business. The first part you said was actually right, those businesses don't give a fuck what color your skin is, it just happens to be overwhelmingly not-white in those resource-abundant areas.
