Can use it's own thread. Slavery in Africa.

Slavery in contemporary Africa

The continent of Africa is one of the regions most rife with contemporary slavery.[1] Slavery in Africa has a long history, within Africa since before historical records, but intensifying with the trans-Saharan and Indian Ocean slave trade[2][3] and again with the trans-Atlantic slave trade;[4] the demand for slaves created an entire series of kingdoms (such as the Ashanti Empire) which existed in a state of perpetual warfare in order to generate the prisoners of war necessary for the lucrative export of slaves.[5] These patterns persisted into the colonial period during the late 19th and early 20th century.[6] Although the colonial authorities attempted to suppress slavery from about 1900, this had very limited success, and after decolonization, slavery continues in many parts of Africa despite being technically illegal.[7]

Slavery existed everywhere in the world until western reformers got rid of it, but of course, Western Civilization gets no credit for that from the self-loathing liberals, nor do they exhibit any shred of gratitude to the predominantly white Union army soldiers who died to get rid of it.
