> In the United States, historical data and estimates provide insight into the percentage of Whites who owned slaves and the percentage of Blacks who are descendants of slaves:

> 1. **Percentage of Whites Who Owned Slaves:**
>   - At the height of slavery in the antebellum South, approximately 25% of White families owned slaves. This statistic varies by region, with higher percentages in the Deep South and lower percentages in border states.

> 2. **Percentage of Blacks Who Are Descendants of Slaves:**
>   - The vast majority of African Americans today are descendants of enslaved people. Estimates suggest that around 90% or more of Black Americans have ancestors who were enslaved in the United States. This high percentage is due to the extensive impact of slavery on the African American population before emancipation and the continuity of African American lineage from that era.
