Africans did NOT sell their own people into slavery
Even in this modern world there are wars and rumors of war almost everywhere you go. There were wars in Europe in those days and there were wars in America. There were wars almost everywhere in the world. There were tribal wars in Africa too. The difference between the tribal wars in Africa and the wars in the outside is that, in the outside world, the conquered were often butchered whereas the conquered in Africa became part of the conqueror. In other words, while no enemy was left standing in the outside world, the conquered enemies were left to live and serve in Africa. So it is true there were slaves in Africa in those days before the White man came. However, those slaves were not taken by force purposely to become slaves of another Kingdom or empire. They were just victims of tribal wars and it was better than what was happening in the outside world where no enemy was allowed to live.
I read an article online today and I was shocked to read so many people believe Africans just sold their own into slavery just like that. I wanted to comment on the article but the comment section had been disabled so I couldn't comment that is why I am making this post to let people know that Africans weren't that stupid to have sold their own brothers and sisters into slavery. We were stupid to have allowed the white strangers into our land in the first place but we weren't that stupid to have sold our own brothers and sisters into slavery just like that. We allowed the white strangers into our land because they said they "come in peace".

The Invisible Child Soldiers in Africa
In 1986 in Uganda, Tito Okello the president from the Acholi tribe and his National Resistance Army (NRA) were overthrown by the now incumbent president Yoweri Museveni in the Ugandan Bush War. The president's homeland, Acholiland in northern Uganda, has many guerilla groups with widely popular Holy Spirit movement led by Alice Auma (Lakwena). However, the conflict in the north amongst themselves begin after their relative loss, Tito Okello being overthrown.
Lord's Resistance Army (LRA), a guerilla group engaged in violent campaign to establish a government that is subject to or ruled by religious authority, has earned reputation for its activities in the north. It's leader Joseph Kony, the son of a lay apostle father and an Anglican mother, and himself a former altar boy. At teenage hood he was the village witch doctor under his older brother Benon Okello. Originally the group was called United Holy Salvation Army (UHSA) but wasn't perceived as a threat by the NRA, with the addition of remnant troops from other groups and accords and the forced recruitment of children, UHSA is becoming a formidable resistance army.
If the group's mission is to have a nation based on the Christian bible and the Ten Commandments why are they feared?
