Should have America sent the slaves back home after slavery was abolished?

This has basically been tried already. It's called Liberia. Most blacks wanted to [i]stay[/i] in America but those who didn't started a colony in Africa with help. It's such a failed state that our Marxist education system tends to skip over that bit. [quote]In the United States, there was a movement to resettle American free blacks and freed slaves in Africa. The American Colonization Society was founded in 1816 in Washington, DC for this purpose, by a group of prominent politicians and slaveholders. But its membership grew to include mostly people who supported abolition of slavery. Slaveholders wanted to get free people of color out of the South, where they were thought to threaten the stability of the slave societies. Some abolitionists collaborated on relocation of free blacks, as they were discouraged by discrimination against them in the North and believed they would never be accepted in the larger society. Most African-Americans, who were native-born by this time, wanted to improve conditions in the United States rather than emigrate. Leading activists in the North strongly opposed the ACS, but some free blacks were ready to try a different environment.[/quote]

Like I'm sure other people have said, they had been gone from their native country long enough to where the no longer shared the same culture or language. Many of them probably didn't even know anyone in Africa and possibly didn't even know that's where they originated from. It would have been better to integrate them into our society and accept them as they were.

And if one of them gets killed by a native cop they found a "Black American lives matter" movement and riot. [spoiler]I know it says should have but it's more interesting this way.[/spoiler]

1 답변We tried, it was call Liberia. Come to find out, continuing to live in a country that kept you and your ancestors in slavery for 200 years is still better than living Africa.
