One final time, for grins and giggles.
Asian railroad workers were paid, had limited rights (admittedly VERY limited), and could eventually somewhat determine their own future. White indentured servants had limited rights, were eventually paid, and were eventually required BY LAW to be freed to become full citizens. Poor whites were paid, had somewhat limited rights, but were full citizens. In the worst of those circumstances there was at least the possibility of their hardships ending. Native Americans, on the other hand, were declared non-human, had no rights, and were systematically annihilated. THAT CYCLE WAS NEVERENDING! Africans were declared non-human, had no rights, and were treated as property every minute of entire their lives. IT TOO WAS NEVERENDING! How much simpler of picture can we paint here??? Termed indenture was not LEGALLY allowed to be the same as slavery!
Still too complex???
No man lies so boldly as the man who is indignant.
