If we’re to believe the left, white people invented slavery and were – indeed are! – the only people ever to practise it. Virtuous ‘People of Colour’ would never do anything so wicked.
Forget about all those centuries of brutal Arab slavery – especially their predilection for white Europeans. Forget that the Ottomans had entire armies of castrated slaves and harems filled with abducted women.
And, whatever you do, pay no attention to who’s still keeping the slave trade alive.
A housewife found guilty of keeping a woman as a slave in her Melbourne home has been described in court as a beacon of her community who instilled into her children the need to help others.
She must be white and probably Christian, obviously.
Kumuthini Kannan and husband Kandasamy Kannan were in April found guilty of keeping a woman as a slave in their Mount Waverley home for eight years.
Umm…
Authorities only uncovered the offending when the woman, then in her 50s, was found by ambulance paramedics lying in a pool of her own urine inside the home on July 30, 2015, emaciated, weighing 40 kilograms and suffering from a urinary infection and undiagnosed diabetes. Mrs Kannan had raised the alarm.
The woman, who cannot be identified, later claimed Mrs Kannan physically and verbally abused her, including pouring boiling liquids on her, throwing hot tea in her face, hitting her with a frozen chicken and pushing her down stairs.
Prosecutors successfully argued to a jury the woman was a prisoner in the house as the Kannans denied her freedom to leave and to communicate with her family in India.
Yeah, but apart from all that, they’re really nice people.
Gideon Boas said Mrs Kannan’s conviction brought her exceptional hardship as the 53-year-old had a major depressive disorder involving struggles that dated back to her experiences as a “war child” in her native Sri Lanka during the country’s civil war, and were now linked to those of her children, who have psychological disabilities[…]
Dr Boas said character references described Mrs Kannan as a highly-valued member of Melbourne’s Tamil community who had a “passion” for assisting others such as cooking meals for the elderly during periods of COVID-19 lockdown.
“She’s doing these charitable acts and instilling into her children the importance of doing them and helping others,” the barrister said.
Y’know, like throwing boiling water at them.
Mr Maidment said the couple recruited the woman from India in 2007 with the intention of keeping her as a slave, and their neglect of her health aggravated their offending. Defence lawyers argue the couple’s offending wasn’t premeditated.

Of course. I mean, who hasn’t kept a slave or two by accident?
I mean, it even happens to upstanding People of Colour in New Zealand.
Yeah, well, that’s because of, um, colonialism, or something. And, uh, reparations and stuff.
