As you say, the lib dismissal doesn't do much to counter the white Supremacist narrative of slavery as a binary. That's why I think performers should take care to distinguish between US slavery of Black people - a fairly unprecedented development in white supremacism - and other forms of slavery in the US.
Huh, good point. I sent a follow request on Twitter since his profile is private-ish (i am not good with computer), so hopefully it'll let me dm him to mention it once he accepts
