Thank you wikipedia bot!
And I'll let you know that they do teach that in Portuguese schools. They also teach that portugal was amoung the first countries to abolish slavery.

And I'd also like to say 3 things:
*I sayed your ancestors owned slaves not judging by your country, but by you being a right extremist.
*I know for a fact that an ancestor of mine owned slaves, and I also know that an ancestor of mine married a slave.
*I have no power over what happened then, I do however have power over what I can do now, which is to not be a xenophobe and a fascist.

One more thing, just because you have access to the statistics from where I'm accessing your (blogger.com's) webserver It doesn't mean you can divulge them, I own the right to post as anonymous, just as you own the right to delete my posts, or just simply to deny anonymous posting.
Also I could be under 5k proxies and you would just sound ridiculous. (and maybe I am ;p)

To Anonymous:
Before you go saying that my ancestors owned slaves, I suggest that you look at your own involvment in slavery. PORTUGAL had a thriving slave market in the 16th century. In the city of Lisbon alone,10% of the population consisted of black African slaves. The rest of the slave population came from various reigions of the globe. It was this market that supported a large section of your population with jobs and wealth. You prized the African slaves which you sold for Gold to the Tropical colinies in the Americas.
Maybe they have erased that from your history books. So chances are you also may have an ancestoror two that not only owned slaves but sold them.
Here endeth the lesson!

Only an idiot would identify himself as anonymous and then in the next line say , "this is Santa." Besides, Santa already granted one wish on this list, so you must be an imposter!
