Ph.D. in idiocy: “slavery is a white people…thing”

“Slavery is white people…thing” tweets Boston University Saida Grundy,  Assistant Professor of sociology and African-American Studies at Boston University.

Grundy shows stunning ignorance of slavery both past and present in various cultures.  Where was this professor educated?  How was she vetted?

Grundy didnâ€t stop there.  She asks: “is white peopleâ€s new deflection from dealing with slavery that ‘all races have had slaves†thing? is this the new ‘#AllLivesMatterâ€?”

Professor Grundy added other enlightening tweets:

“for the record, NO race outside of Europeans had a system that made slavery a *personhood* instead of temporary condition;

“there is also no race except Europeans who kidnapped and transported human beings in order to enslave them and their offspring for life;

“before Europeans invented it as such, slavery was not a condition that was de facto inherited from parent to child.”
