This is the way. Push back against the Left's moralized fake history when given the opportunity. History is complicated, morally and otherwise. The Woman King movie is a travesty of history that cleanses the hands of the (black) Kingdom of Dahomey, which was central to the transatlantic slave trade, kidnapping rival Africans and selling them into slavery to Europeans (see here).
This is not to absolve Europeans for the crime of slavery; it is to say, however, that the line between good and evil regarding the African slave trade does not pass between whites and blacks.
A terrific book to read is Out Of America, by Keith B. Richburg, who spent three years in Africa in the 1990s covering the continent for the Washington Post. Richburg is black. The book opens with a staggering set piece in which he stands on a river bank watching bodies, and parts of bodies, float down from the genocidal massacre in Rwanda.
