Slavery is not a beginning job that gives you skills to upgrade.
Slavery was for life. And for the kids lives.

Whipped Peter is a good example of the “personal benefits” of slavery when racist slave owners got mad at their slaves

And what “benefits” did 14-year old Celia get from slavery?

According to SFist, the shutdown halfway through “left the 10th Street side of the building with a sign that only said “er.””

From the essay:

The worldview of U.S. Conservatism has its roots in Calvinism. Its dualism is a mirror of Calvinism’s dualism. We decidedly see this in religious Fundamentalism, where Calvinist doctrines have been the core dogma of the “religious right” for centuries. Part of the legacy of Calvinism is an ideology in which those of different ethnicity or creed are placed under the classification of evil. Those considered different are vilified and marginalized. Foreigners are the enemy, especially if they are non-white. Non-whites, even though they are Americans, are considered lesser members of society. That black people are cursed by God has been a long-held conception, especially for the Mormons.

The Calvinist dualistic worldview has spilled over into secular America. A corollary to this conception of evil is that attempts to help the disadvantaged in society is actually not just a waste of time but morally wrong. In essence, it is aiding evil. The poor are poor because they deserve to be poor because of their sinful nature.

FUCK THE CALVINISTS!
