Well, my ancestors were whitey folk sent to the prison colonies of New England, (thats australia) from Scotland, ireland, in prison ships containing hundreds of persons, destined for the new world, for crimes as simple as stealing a loaf of bread.
Unwed teenagers, thieves, fraudsters, robbers, murderers, mostly petty criminals-were shipped-slave brides, convicts under the whip and lash of da'man.
Does that help, black folk with issues in the US, that whitey was equally screwed by the system?
