slavery was not born of racism: rather, racism was the consequence of slavery.”Slavery was not born of racism: rather, racism was the consequence of slavery.” Are you saying that it was the fault of the ones who were captured and demanded to do free labor that we now have racism today?
- No it was not their fault, in the beginning, they were captured and forced to commit to free labor. Racism has to deal with opinions in skin color which isn't right.

Some factors to consider between the two types of workers are that African slaves are cheaper, larger in population, and are used to the work conditions. White indentured servants were more expensive, smaller in population and some weren't used to the work conditions and dying from diseases that weren't really affecting the African slaves.

Mr.Zinn, I acknowledge that other than hatred, Slavery and the plantation system grew because the number of whites that came to the new world was not enough to meet the requirements of a plantation, nevertheless, how would you change the population at the time to be more whites just as there were blacks or minority?
I would change the population to have more whites just as there were blacks or minorities by either not taking as many blacks from Africa or by asking more Europeans to come work for labor.

Mr. Williams, I recognize that instead of what most people think the reason slavery was brought up, it was the opposite, racism was the result of slavery. However, how would this information be useful if you were trying to incorporate it in a debate against a large number of people who think the opposite of you?
This information would be useful in a debate against the people opposing me because the reason they took slaves from Africa was that they had a better fit in the conditions of working so it made sense on the Europeans side, the only reason it was bad and turned into a bad thing was because Africans were forced against their own will to work for Europeans or Whites and because they were forced, people that were growing up seeing this happened thought of Blacks and Minorities of someone less than and carried that on through history which leads to racism.

Mr. Williams, I see that you are saying that racism was a consequence of slavery, so what are the long trem conseuqesnce of racism?

 2. Mr. Zinn, I understand that you stated "Slavery grew as the plantation system grew. The reason is easily traceable to something other than natural racial repugnance [hatred]: the number of arriving whites, whether free or indentured servants (under four to seven years contract), was not enough to meet the need of the plantations." However, what would result if the majority of white indentured servants didn't leave the plantation system? 

3. Mr. Willam you claimed, “Slavery was not born of racism: rather, racism was the consequence of slavery.” However, what examples can you find to support the claim that racism was a consequence of slavery?

 

Mr. Zinn, I understand that the arriving white people population was not enough for the plantations, so what can you infer about racism in the future and if it would still be as big in America if there was enough white people?

Mr. Williams, I understand that you believe that slavery was the thing that created racism, but how does enslaving a race you just approached cause you to bring so much hate to that same race?
