I suppose that depends if you consider the Cavaliers that ramped up the 
tobacco industry as 'Americans'. I doubt they did. Cotton was a minor crop 
until Whitney invented the cotton gin in 1793. Slavery was on its way out 
until then.

As a side note the indigenous Cherokees in the southeast enslaved captured 
members of other tribes. However, they realized Africans were much more 
tractable and started buying slaves. When they were expelled they took the 
slaves with them to Oklahoma. The Cherokee had many more scruples about 
breeding with the Africans. I think they're still fighting over allowing 
blacks on the tribal rolls.

Only in the US can blacks claim indians have white privilege.
