I'm saying that the conversation of slavery that's brought up today shouldn't be used to guilt whites since the majority didn't have slaves.

And I (and most important historians) say that the majority of whites benefited from slavery (and Jim Crow), regardless of whether they owned them or not. We don't have to feel guilty about it but pretending as if we are all on the same level is ridiculous.

We have just as much right to talk about it as anybody else.

Middle easterners didn't own too many slaves back in early America, so I'm not sure what you mean.
