...it's actually hundreds of thousands of white slaves. The success of white slave labor paved the way to bring in African slaves. The African slaves were seen to be much more valuable to slave owners, which after time, stopped most of the white slave trade...they weren't worth anything. These poor whites were contracted for the most dangerous jobs, because if they died or got injured from the job, it wouldn't matter to the slave owners.

Though the Catholic Church is guilty(with basically everybody else being guilty at the same time), they still did some good...the buying of my forefather's freedom, among many others, being fine examples.
