I've already seen one stamp about this, but I wanted to make one on my own :)

Well, the most repetitive arguments everybody hears about this matter usually are:

"But whites were never enslaved!!1!1!"

 - False. White people were enslaved.
Iberians, celtiberians, celtics, gaulics between others, were barbarian populations which were enslaved by Rome when they were conquered.
In addition, when the Holy Roman Epire was created and almost all of the previous mentioned "barbarian" tribes learned Latin and were considered Roman citizens, the ones who started being considered as slaves were Slavic people.

Also, if you do a little ressearch you will find that "the North African slave markets traded also in European Slaves. The European slaves were acquired by Barbary Pirates in slave raids on ships and by raids on coastal towns from Italy to Spain, Portugal, France, England, the Netherlands, and as far afield as Iceland. Men, women, and children were captured, to such a devastating extent that vast numbers of sea coasts towns were abandoned" so keep the "Educate yourself!!1!" words where they belong.

And if you are not still aware, the "big ones" when it comes to slave trade were Arabians, not Whites; so please, go a bother them as you do with us.
Here you have a link from a very known page you can read en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arab_sla…

"White people conquered my land!!1!", "White people took my gold!!1!1", etc.

- First of all, your land is not the only one which has been conquered or invaded. If I remember correctly, almost the entire Mediterranean was conquered by Rome, and guess what, they took all the gold and minerals those lands had and taught them their language; and same with the Mongol empire, the Otoman Empire, Phoenicians, Carthaginians and many other tribes conquered lands and took benefits of them. And if we take the discussion to more "nowadays" terms, we have the perfect example of Nazis during WWII in western Europe and the CCCP in the Eastern one.

Plus, why do you think that the African and American tribes we know are usually the "big" ones? Yeah, because they conquered their neighbours as well, there were not only Maya an Aztec people, there were not only Zulu and Masaai people, there were way more tribes, but the stronger ones beat the weaker ones so they could keep surviving, matter of life.

As you may see, the world is a big drama bubble which does not only revolve around you. Every country was invaded, conquered, starved, forced to learn a language or even some of them disappeared because of this, and if you are not able to understand it several centuries after it happened, too bad.
