Original Note:
The origin of the word is debated. One possibility is that it comes from a specific Slavic tribe who were often enslaved, not white people generally. Another possible meaning is that it comes from Byzantine words referring to looting killed enemies, and spoils of war. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavery
