About the "blacks were dehumanized . .. " yes, sure, but so were many other races. The very partial and inaccurate versions of the history of slavery offered by DiAngelo and Ibram X. Kendi and Nikole Hannah-Jones have been debunked--in fact, see Thomas Sowell's Intellectuals and Race, pages 118-121. For starters.

Oh, where to begin? Could start with the Irish. But did you look at that YouTube link I sent of Sowell's work? It's less than 12 minutes. Take a look at that and then we'll talk!
While youтАЩre looking for that can you also point me to the following? The historical records that document the trans-Atlantic Irish slave trade, the Irish underground railroad, the Irish abolitionist movement, the contemporary work of literature that recounts the horrors of Irish slavery (Uncle OтАЩMalleyтАЩs Cabin?), the Constitutional Amendment that counts Irish as 3/5ths a person, anti-miscegenation laws for Irish, the Irish Civil Rights Movement (who is the Irish Rosa Parks or Dr. King?), redlining policies directed towards Irish, Jim Crow laws for Irish, Lynching post cards with Irish victims, GI Bills that excluded Irish Americans, the Christian theology used to justify Irish slavery, and any other history I have missed about Irish racism in America.
Yes, I completed my assignment. Very interesting bit on the migration patterns from British Isles to the Southern states. Can you please point me to the research that has been done that shows the significant and persistent economic and educational disparities between whites and Irish?
Sowell's point, Jeremy, is that these disparities have wended their way from one culture to another--from white hillbilly culture (and the problems continue there! See J.D. Vance) to ghetto culture.

Please educate me on which other groups of people in America were discriminated on a level even remotely commensurate to African Americans?
Indigenous people; Native Americans. -_-

It's hard to give a full answer in a small box here. I would, again, recommend Douglas Murray, but here's a brief summary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QqbYoO-m6iM
The bottom line: slavery was what the west got right, ending it before others did. A few more words to that effect: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2RKIlPQvpzY

A black slave was worth more than an Irish immigrant-- they were given the deadliest jobs. WhereтАЩve you been?
Dog, I donтАЩt think anything I could say will resonate with you.
Anyone want to tell Dog what is wrong with his statement? Anyone? Melissa?
