3. While the slaves themselves were clearly worse off in America, their descendants are better off. (This fact is obviously relevant to the reparations issue.) Muhammad Ali captured this truth when he said about his roots in Africa, “Thank God my granddaddy got on that boat” — PolitiTweet.org

5. Virtually no Republicans owned slaves. Out of 4 million slaves in 1860, historians have found around 10 owned by Republicans. The overwhelming majority of slaves were owned by Democrats, revealing that slavery was not just a regional divide but also a partisan divide — PolitiTweet.org
