Which tragedy do you think was worse, The Holocaust or Slavery?

Slavery. It lasts much longer and establishes social institutions that are very hard to eradicate. See America.

Slavery, by far. Slavery has affected millions of people since the dawn of time, and today claims the freedom of many people all over the world.

Despite the British Empire making it illegal to sell people from 1811, and making it fully illegal to own a slave by 1833, slavery persisted in the USA, and though make illegal after the civil war; the inequality that followed from it was not legally resolved until the 1960s.

Many think that the inequalities run so deep that racial prejudice continues to blight the lives of many non-whites.

In other places on the world, even where slavery is illegal, it still continues.

The holocaust was a tragic and deplorable event. And might seem more horrific for happening over such a sort period, but slavery, it seems, is always with us.

Hard to compare. Assuming you mean the enslavement of the African Americans over the past couple of hundred years... On one hand, slavery introduced a huge amount of racism that persists even into today's society, essentially propagating the idea that black people are inferior. Of course, much of this mentality probably would have existed regardless, since humans are actually quite vile creatures.

The holocaust was, however, a planned mass torture and murder of hundreds of thousands of innocent people. If not for the 'medical' experiments that were performed on many Jewish victims towards the apex of the Holocaust, I would give the vote to slavery. However, when there are doctors performing live autopsies, removing people's bones from their body without anaesthetic, test to see what temperatures they die at, and so on, I start to lean towards the Holocaust.

Slavery has existed since ancient times. if you refer to African slavery in particular, it was of course a terrible thing, but the intention was to enslave people rather than wipe them out. From the point of view of mass slaughter, the Holocaust was worse. Slaveowners wanted their slaves alive, and it was even possible for some slaves to attain freedom eventually. the Holocaust was an attempt to completely destroy the Jewish race, as well as many other people.

While The Holocaust was man's inhumanity to man. Slavery was an acceptable norm as part of conquest and the machinery of industry.

For that reason one cannot make a comparison.

Holocaust killing groups of people in a factory of death is much worse than slavery.

slavery is just a little thing compared to the horrors of the fascists reich.

You're comparing thousands of years to about three.

There is no league table of inhumanities, it is a waste of time to try to create one.

You cannot measure such things. Both were terrible.
