I dont see how this has anything to do with it being a democracy. The democratic process decided that black people should not be represented equally and decided what rights they did and did not have. The democratic process can decide who can and cannot vote. Through democracy, your government decided that your ancestors should not be viewed equally and that they should work for free. The majority can vote the rights away from the minority, this is how democracy works.
