Yup! No more than like 1000 individuals at a time benefited from slavery when it was a thing, and even then a surprising number of slave owners, slave catchers, and slave sellers were black.
The insane left tries to pen this insane narrative that somehow every white family owned a slave or two. The reality is that keeping humans who don't want be there to be on one's property was an activity that required people to run a prison-like operation with extreme levels of overhead and a full staff of security. It was something only the wealthy could manage.
If one goes back to Angola and the Ivory Coast where most of the slaves came from, those people have practiced slavery, lifetime cattle-slavery, as long as any of them can ever remember. Today even they practice slavery though they are not supposed to. Its their culture. Africans are slavers. And no only do they take slaves for life, but the children of slaves are also slaves. Its an adaptation of genocidal tribal warfare where instead of outright killing entire families and all children, they take them as livestock and "kill" their family names by enslaving their entire bloodline.
I wouldn't go so far as to call the whole custom savage I mean, surely if I didn't have respect for their genocidal ways I would surely be a racist. See after all genocide is only bad when white people do it amirite?
The fun fucking thing is the practice of lifetime cattle-slavery wasn't even legal in the English commonwealth until an Angolan (aka black man) sued in the courts and won to keep a man for life. Before that it was the english custom of indentured service, which was to contract 2-7 years of service in exchange for either a loan, or to have the contractee pay for your passage to America. In fact vast numbers of whites were delivered to the America colonies under indentured contracts. But hey mentioning that Irish, even poor British citizens were routinely kidnapped off the street and pressed into indentured service in the colonies is now racism, weird.
So when the English encountered the Angolans and others in Africa they were literally offered and sold slaves as property as was the Angolan way but legally the English had to handle them as indentured servants, and so would release them after a term of service, hence that famous phrase "7 years a slave*
It was an Angolan colonist who actually sued on colonial english courts to keep another black man for life, that actually established the legal precedent of permanent slavery, and the right to claim the children of slaves as slaves. Which was the African way, and he actually argued the case that it was his culture to do so.
But this is history the left wants buried because its doesn't fit their Black=Goodly victims, white=absolute inherent evil narrative that best fits people with the mind and intellectual capacity of children.
It was probably likely such a custom was going to evolve from chattel-slavery/indentured service to full-bore slavery for life anyways, but it insanely curious that a black man was actually the catalyst for the transition.
And funny enough the English Commonwealth actually completely ended the practice of indentured service in the 19th century. Its also why they didn't have any slaves to free because they simply stopped the trade and over time the contracts expired.

It took a black man to change this system. After all didn't you now its racist to not respect African culture?
