There’s more to the story.
“Well over 90 percent of enslaved Africans were imported into the Caribbean and South America. Only about 6 percent of African captives were sent directly to British North America. Yet by 1825, the US population included about one quarter of the people of African descent in the New World.”
“In the Caribbean, Dutch Guiana, and Brazil, the slave death rate was so high and the birth rate so low that they could not sustain their population without importations from Africa. Rates of natural decrease ran as high as 5 percent a year. While the death rate of US slaves was about the same as that of Jamaican slaves, the fertility rate was more than 80 percent higher in the United States.”
“US slaves were more generations removed from Africa than those in the Caribbean. In the nineteenth century, the majority of slaves in the British Caribbean and Brazil were born in Africa. In contrast, by 1850, most US slaves were third-, fourth-, or fifth-generation Americans.”
“Slavery in the US was distinctive in the near balance of the sexes and the ability of the slave population to increase its numbers by natural reproduction. Unlike any other slave society, the US had a high and sustained natural increase in the slave population for a more than a century and a half.”

Nonetheless, the quotes were in her speech speaking to, speaking about, speaking in reference to the administrations 'intention to seek election' to the UN Human Rights Council.
She portrayed the US as a racist country founded in white supremacy; echoing the words of the Chinese government representatives to Blinken in Anchorage.
"And it's the bullying, discrimination, brutality, and violence that Asian Americans face every day".
"That's why the Biden-Harris administration has made racial equity a top priority ...."
Two days later, Biden's press secretary has no idea where Biden is when the 1st foreign leader to be greeted at the White House by this administration arrives.
Biden did, however, hail the 'Japanese boy' who won the Masters.
No doubt, that made the day for Japan's PM.
In our hopes to 'improve' Are we sticking with Uighur genocide now, and getting away from it's a difference in 'cultural norms' ?
