So i was asking to explain how that is any better then below:
From before Roman times, slavery was prevalent in Britain, with indigenous Britons being routinely exported.[18][19] Following the Roman conquest of Britain, slavery was expanded and industrialised.[20]
After the fall of Roman Britain, both the Angles and Saxons propagated the slave system.[21] One of the earliest accounts of slaves from early medieval Britain come from the description of fair-haired boys from York seen in Rome by Pope Gregory the Great, in a biography written by an anonymous monk.[22]
Vikings traded with Gaelic, Pict, Brythonic and Saxon kingdoms in between raiding them for slaves.[23] Saxon slave traders sometimes worked in league with Norse traders, often selling Britons to the Irish.[24] In 870, Vikings besieged and captured the stronghold of Alt Clut (the capital of the Kingdom of Strathclyde) and in 871 most of the site's inhabitants were taken, most probably by Olaf the White and Ivar the Boneless, to the Dublin slave markets.[23] Maredudd ab Owain (d. 999) is said to have paid a large ransom for the return of 2,000 Welsh slaves

And if there is not difference why do we are considering to pay reparations to people of african heritage but not to either or own or other family of victims of slavery in europe. it just doesn't seem fair now does it?
Really? i didn't wrote below:
Many nations such as the Bono State, Ashanti of present-day Ghana and the Yoruba of present-day Nigeria were involved in slave-trading. Groups such as the Imbangala of Angola and the Nyamwezi of Tanzania would serve as intermediaries or roving bands, waging war on African states to capture people for export as slaves. source:

A bit further down that same article ''around 90% were enslaved by fellow Africans who sold them to European traders.'' in other words warlords.
Can you now answer the questions why we should only pay black family of victims of slave trade? And secondly if we would pay how would we make sure we don't pay the slave trading warlords (more likely their family) you one post ago claimed didn't exists?
