So, in your opinion, slavery didn't involve any discrimination.

Of course it involves discrimination but discrimination doesn't automatically lead to slavery any more than arguments automatically lead to murder.

If you kill somebody it's murder, if you force somebody to work for you it's slavery.  If you have an argument with somebody it's an argument but no substantial harm is done.  If you discriminate against somebody, it's lost business.
