Indians would not make good slaves because it’s their country and they can flee into the wilderness which they can survive in or they can join another indian tribe. Blacks were foreigners and would die if they tried to escape. Also they did not have genetic immunity to diseases like smallpox let alone tropical diseases like malaria which blacks did.Some would say that blacks were sought for slavery because they are docile. Red Indians were massacred, only few of then were enslaved, but they were annihilated because they rather die than be enslaved.
We Somalis got colonised in 1927 and got our independence 1960, a mere 33 years. AA were enslaved for 400 years. No documentation of widespread resistance, no armed revolt, no mass killings of slave owners. As Kanye said '400 years? That sounds like a choice'
