Original Note:
The first documented instance of slavery in the English colonies that would later become the United States dates back to 1619 in Jamestown, Virginia. A common false claim is Anthony Johnson, a black man, was the first slave owner - but he would not be free until years later https://time.com/5653369/august-1619-jamestown-history/ https://www.aaihs.org/the-curious-history-of-anthony-johnson-from-captive-african-to-right-wing-talking-point/
