Odd compliment but good for you - it means you never stopped learning. I learned this weekend that Volkswagen ran slave farms in Brazil in the 80s. They were just ordered to pay money. And yes, I mean the 1980s.

The slave trade was taught in my middle school for sure in Virginia, as we sadly are the first English colony to purchase slaves. However, I remember it being taught as the “transatlantic slave trade.”

Always learning something new and usually horrendous.

That I knew. I’ve seen estimates of up to 90% of the Native American population being wiped out by small pox etc. but they (allegedly) returned the favor with syphilis.

I am. Is it the transatlantic slave trade? I just googled, and yes the slave trade.

Oh I know that quote. Isn’t it from A Rule Against Murder? A miss translation from French.

I thought you were referring to French voting Trump in 2015. But if not, okay.
