    Throughout human history, were there more white people enslaved by black people, or were there more black people enslaved by white people?

    Who took more people, black or white, initially into slavery, blacks or whites? Not who bought them, who took them from freedom into slavery?

    When were the largest number of slaves held, at one time, in one continent, and who held them?

    Answers:

    Far more white people have been enslaved by blacks than the converse.
    Black people have taken more black people into slavery than any other peoples have.
    more black people are held in slavery today, by other black people, than at any other time in human history. Granted, those people represent the lowest percentage of the human population than ever before, but it is what it is. They are still at the bottom, bringing up the rear.
