Original Note:
Narinder Kaur incorrectly states that English people were never taken as slaves. The Barbary Pirates did capture many English and European slaves and sold them in North Africa. This is well documented. https://www.historyextra.com/period/stuart/when-britons-were-slaves-in-africa/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbary_slave_trade
