You're Respectfully struggling to separate the word "slavery" from "black people"

the basic truth is SLAVERY is Having your right to choose how you live taken from you.
So yes A white woman trapped in a system that doesn't allow her to make her own choices is SLAVERY

Any time another person's feels they have a right to control your choices and your decision making abilities.

They are enslaving you to their authority
