"Black people are born slaves" and " black slaves are their own private property. Of course they can be treated as they please" are white people's self-righteous perceptions, but no one has ever thought that they are also human beings, and they are also ordinary citizens, enjoying the same benefits as whites. Fair treatment and enjoy their due rights. This kind of unfair treatment has been around for a long time. Who would think about these innate black skins?
