“The Europeans followed suit, outdoing the Arabs and Turks in their appetite for, and mistreatment of, the people brought to the slave ships anchored off the west coast.”

It’s not actually possible to mistreat people more than the Muslims do on a regular basis. This is just another example of anti-White bias and historical revisionism.

Oh, and the Muslims took millions of slaves, not thousands. In India alone, they worked more than 100 million slaves to death in well documented history.

Seductive though these after-the-fact geographic explanations may be, we should remember they do explain why a 1000 years ago, the people of what is now the US, using their innovative sea-going vessels, flooded EurAsia and dominated the newly connected world for a time.

Well, not the whole world. Australia was easy, but sub-Saharan Africans, safe from predation behind natural barriers of tropical diseases, waterfalls, and the Sahara, developed technologies far beyond those of the rest of the world.

But that’s another story.
