I have to talk globally because that's the only way to remove the log in the eyes of SJWs. What you described is better explained by cognitive diversity instead of by slavery.
One of my favorite examples is that of Trinidad and Tobago. Please explain to me why the fuck the descendants of indentured Indian servants are doing much better than the descendants of black slaves who were freed before them?

They don't have either the genes or memes necessary to do well in a modern civilization.
