History is replete with people of many nations capturing those of  
conquered nations and putting them into servitude.

We have yet to become civilized in how we treat our fellow humans. How  
long before you think we will rise above our animal status? Ever? In  
ways, it is necessary that the strong use those weaker. It is still  
survival of the fittest.

Thanks for the Cherokee bit. I have a great-grandmother, named  
Elizabeth Wood, who family says was Cherokee. This was in Northern  
Michigan and northern Wisconsin.
