If black people were always in Europe, why would we have travelled to Africa to enslave the ones there? There should have been plenty available right next door.
well Europe and the British isles do have a rich history of slavery, especially amongst the Viking cultures. they just enslaved other Europeans and British isles natives because that's what was available.
slaves being primarily black is 100% a post revolution American thing, and that was only because Africa was the best place to get cheap slaves at the time. Britain had long since stopped sending over convicts to be indentured servants.

Or the Arabic slave trade.
