Black slaves were undoubtedly the bigger benefactors of slavery than white people. Jews were the biggest benefactors of slavery overall. White people were the biggest losers of slavery. If anything jews and blacks should pay reparations to white people over slavery.
Probably referring to the fact the blacks were employed, fed and sheltered at the expense of poor whites who were unemployed and thus struggled to feed and shelter themselves & their families.
Ding, ding, ding. Only about 10% of the antebellum South owned slaves. About 3/4 of slave owners owned 4 or fewer slaves, and about half of the big slave owners were non-white. The myth of Johnny Reb who owned a dozen slaves and fought to keep them is just that.
