While it is probably that some Blacks did own slaves, where did you

Lots and lots more out there..need more?


Yes, I believe some more might be useful. Your reference states that
there were a number of black slave owners in Louisiana in 1860 and
lists approximately 550 slaves owned,,,, out of a slave population of
some 331,726. So according to your reference Blacks owned some 0.1% of
the slaves in Louisiana.

I must say, that is something to really get excited about!

You may wish to read this..all nicely cited with names and numbers

And climb down off your high horse..you might get a nose bleed up
there.

As usual, Gunner is full of crap. The largest number of slaves owned
by a black, as noted in his article, was 163. Numerous white
slaveholders owned more than 500; in one case, 1,200 at one time.

So his claim is ****. Not that we should be surprised.
