This particular article is about enslaved people in the US in 1860 and the events and systems that led to demand for the labor those specific people were forced to perform.
While it is true that other cultures/races/ethnicities throughout history and geography suffered enslavement or enslaved others, that is not relevant to this discussion about this specific group of people in this specific place at this specific time.
