Sorry, Kim, but I think you missed the thrust of the discussion with Adam, above.

The "abuse" -Negro chattel slavery itself- with all the debasement, degredation, and horror that it entailed was not and is not rendered less of an "abuse" (and "abuse" by the way, is a somewhat mild way of describing, for example, murder by mutilation) no matter how many examples are trotted out of certain Black folks developing attachments (Stockholm Syndrome aside) for certain White folks, and vice versa.

Best, Greg
