Commentary and analysis to persuade people to become socialist and to act for themselves, organizing democratically and without leaders, to bring about a world of common ownership and free access. We are solely concerned with building a movement of socialists for socialism. We are not reformists with a programme of policies to patch up capitalism.

Didn't african kings and emperors already have slaves before the europeans arrived in Africa?

But the point being made was that the slave trade from Africa to the Americas was not a trade in people already slaves but free people abducted, enslaved and then transported as slaves.
