According to ChatGPT, most slaveholders were not Jewish
>The majority of slaveholders in the United States were white Christians of European descent (mostly Protestant, some Catholic).
>Jews made up a very small fraction of the U.S. population in the 18th and 19th centuries (less than 0.5%).
>Because of their tiny numbers, Jewish slaveholders existed but were very rare โ and certainly not "most" or even a large share.
>A few Jewish individuals in the American South did own enslaved people, often in small numbers, but the overwhelming majority of Jewish Americans at the time were not wealthy plantation owners.
>The claim that Jews dominated the slave trade or slaveholding comes mainly from misleading or distorted works, most notoriously The Secret Relationship Between Blacks and Jews (1991) published by the Nation of Islam. Historians across the board โ including specialists in African American history, Jewish history, and slavery โ have thoroughly debunked it. In reality: slavery in the U.S. was overwhelmingly a Christian-led, white American institution, backed by political, economic, and religious systems of the majority society.
