I can't think of his name right now, but there is a black
reporter for the Wall Street Journal who wrote a book about
how glad his ancestors were slaves in America, so he doesn't
have to live in Africa.


I'm not aware of any book like that, but Walter Williams has often pointed
out that the descendants of slaves in the US today benefited from the slave
trade because their ancestors were removed from Africa and brought to what
is now the US.
