His name was John Howland.
It is truly an amazing story. Yes, an indentured servant. I mean can you believe it? A white slave? Huh, I did not know they were allowed to be slaves. Go figure.
Aaaanyway, he was thrown overboard by powerful waves during the voyage of the Mayflower to the new world. He was somehow saved and this is what happened.

White indentured servant.
According to the left, white indentured servants were NOT slaves.
Black indentured servants were slaves.
Not kidding.
No indentured servants were slaves. Their color doesn't matter. If they had a contract that freed them in a specified number of years, they were an indentured servant. End of story.
My patience is wearing thin with the sort of stupidity you are exhibiting as in you are either not reading the posts or have some sort of cognitive problem that does not allow you to understand what is being said.
Once...more the so called 'contracts' that Indentured Servants supposedly had with their masters were bogus...not enforceable as in they were not enforced as in there was no one to enforce them as in......the masters could either abide by them or not......thus essentially these so called contracts were worthless....not even to mention the majority of these so called indentured servants were worked to death before the specified time for them to even be released came up.
Of course your idea that only Africans were enslaved in America fits your pc agenda but it does not fit the truth.
no question ----indentured servitude was no picnic----but----
THE CONTRACTS WERE ENFORCABLE. Just living in
the Americas back then was kinda deadly. You got a link
to your idiot claim that indentured slavery was no better
that chattel slavery? You may be referring to those
people who were made into indentured servants as a
CRIMINAL ----ie SENTENCED. Large numbers of indentured servants did to paid passage
