Should the empire pay back?

Tell me how Germany could have led the movement in Europe when slavery no longer existed in Europe when Germany was created.

I already said the Germanic states. Just because Germany wasn't officially a country does not mean it did not exist.

As for evidence since you don't want to believe anything I say even though I studied this in-depth, then I will find it later...

I read this in a textbook for the history class I took.

Slavery was practiced everywhere, and the fact is that slaves in British North America and the US were amongst the best treated anytime or anwhere. They were the only slave population to successfully self-perpetuate, which means two things.
A) These Slaves were incredibly well treated for their time, leading to increased survival rates.
B) If US slavery was so terrible, why did the above mention slaves continue to have so many children. They clearly didn't care that they were bringing lives into a world of pain, suffering and bondage.

Slavery was cruel and vicious, but I would not say by any chance that slaves in the British/US domains faced the brunt of it. By far the most savage instances of colonial slavery occured in the Spanish and Portuguese colonies. Even until the very modern era, slavery was rampant in Africa and still is. If these slaves were not transported, chances are that they would be still slaves, or only freed very recently. If we pay reparations, then every nation on earth should start payments to the decedants of all former slaves.

Without slavery there would probably be less racial integration in the world, so it has a silver lining, but still quite a big cloud.

Leave it to Berkeley to revise history in order to fit their PC ideology. Read my post above.

Yes. It's a very 5hit university.

Is it still called the People's Republic of Berkeley?

Do you want to find me the quote where I said that?

Berkley isn't even worth the s**t it produces.

Ah yes. At least it's not called Dictatorship of Chancellors of Berkeley.

Seriously, why do you feel threatened by our university? You think it's a cesspool of what liberal intellectuals? Fact is, I'm glad we have ethnic studies; i'm glad you guys can bathe in goodness of what people like the students at our universities achieve--for example HUMAN RIGHTS.

Howard..what university do you attend exactly? Because I don't really want to remind you of uh how esteemed mine is..but I will if you insist.

I believe I used the phrase "playing the victim". Yes, black people are still discriminated against, but they are not slaves and haven't been for two hundred years. No living Briton in the UK has kept slaves ever, so why on earth should we apologise/pay reparations? Whoever mentioned civil rights-its irrelevant to this debate.
