The enslaved of this country were not "owned" they were pressed into involuntary servitude, held in bondage and exploited for their labor for the vast majority for life, and as icing on the cake, their descendants could hope for nothing greater than to labor for the benefit of some devil for whatever of their natural lives they were able to obtain, committing no greater crime than to seen as a object able to bring wealth to the truly evil of that time. No, a human can not be owned!
