Africans Did Not Do This.

"What happened is beyond comprehension. It was horrendous and wrong. Why do you continuously post these things? History can’t be changed. No white guilt, we didn’t participate."

Slave backed securities created the wealth your family was able to live on and allowed such things as guaranteed government backed loans whites got to purchase the type of suburban home you more than likely live in now. You, by your denial of todays white racism, are participating in it's continuance.

I post these things because people like you want to talk shit about how Africans sold other Africans. You do that to excuse what whites have done just like your we did not participate line is used by those like you to deny the racism you participate in today.

You have run your mouth about blacks. I am running mine about whites. It's just that when I run my mouth, I can show you what whites did that the laws allowed. When you show me what blacks do, you are showing me people who face just punishment for crimes.

Africans did not create sex farms. They did not rape men, women, little boys and little girls. Africans did not force blacks to sleep with their mothers, fathers, daughter, sons, sisters and brothers. You guys want to tell us your story about slavery that allows you to deny what slavery really was. You want to blame blacks for slavery in America telling us its our fault then when shown reality, "I did not participate." Fuck that, the days of white excuses is over.

You will be made to understand what Africans did not do. You racists bought this on yourselves.
Where did I make excuses? What racism do I participate in today? Damn you are an ignorant asshole!
 
The joke is on you wb.

Slaves worked for free. But that did not mean they had no value. Indeed, slaves were literally more valuable than gold. Ned & Constance Sublette wrote “The American Slave Coast: A History of the Slave-Breeding Industry “ the following passage is from a blog titled “A History of the Slave-Breeding Industry in the United States,” by Jason Kottke who quotes a Pacific Standard review of the book:

“By a conservative estimate, in 1860 the total value of American slaves was $4 billion, far more than the gold and silver then circulating nationally ($228.3 million, “most of it in the North,” the authors add), total currency ($435.4 million), and even the value of the South’s total farmland ($1.92 billion). Slaves were, to slavers, worth more than everything else they could imagine combined.”

Ned & Constance Sublette, The American Slave Coast: A History of the Slave-Breeding Industry

Slaves were worth more than the total currency plus all the farmland in the South combined yet did not receive a dime. As I writes this America has 1.9 trillion dollars of total currency in circulation according to the federal reserve. In 1860 the total value of slaves was 17- and one-half times more than the money circulating in the economy. Giving todays amount of currency in circulation, the same equivalence in comparison to the value of slaves would make slaves worth 33,250,000,000,000 dollars. Remember that slaves were considered property. Because they were, the following activity could occur.

During slavery, more specifically during the 19th century, wealthy slaveowners looking for a way to get additional capital to buy more slaves came up with an idea- slave backed securities. Your eyes are not playing tricks on you. Slaveowners securitized slavery. Cornell professors Edward E. Baptist and Louis Hyman detailed how it was done in an article published by the Chicago Sun-Times on its website dated March 7, 2014. This is from the article:

In the 1830s, powerful Southern slaveowners wanted to import capital into their states so they could buy more slaves. They came up with a new, two-part idea: mortgaging slaves; and then turning the mortgages into bonds that could be marketed all over the world.

First, American planters organized new banks, usually in new states like Mississippi and Louisiana. Drawing up lists of slaves for collateral, the planters then mortgaged them to the banks they had created, enabling themselves to buy additional slaves to expand cotton production. To provide capital for those loans, the banks sold bonds to investors from around the globe — London, New York, Amsterdam, Paris. The bond buyers, many of whom lived in countries where slavery was illegal, didn’t own individual slaves — just bonds backed by their value. Planters’ mortgage payments paid the interest and the principle on these bond payments. Enslaved human beings had been, in modern financial lingo, “securitized.”

As slave-backed mortgages became paper bonds, everybody profited — except, obviously, enslaved African Americans whose forced labor repaid owners’ mortgages. But investors owed a piece of slave-earned income. Older slave states such as Maryland and Virginia sold slaves to the new cotton states, at securitization-inflated prices, resulting in slave asset bubble. Cotton factor firms like the now-defunct Lehman Brothers — founded in Alabama — became wildly successful. Lehman moved to Wall Street, and for all these firms, every transaction in slave-earned money flowing in and out of the U.S. earned Wall Street firms a fee.

The infant American financial industry nourished itself on profits taken from financing slave traders, cotton brokers and underwriting slave-backed bonds. But though slavery ended in 1865, in the years after the Civil War, black entrepreneurs would find themselves excluded from a financial system originally built on their bodies.


Edward E. Baptist and Louis Hyman, American Finance Grew on the Back of Slaves
Slaves participated in building this country but give credit where it’s due. You post as if no white people worked in this country or that all whites had slaves. Wake the hell up.
 
Another ignorant white racist. As expected.

So since you decided to make that kind of comment, you can stop crying about the government because the government was mage to provide whites with all the free shut they need to make it. Free land, Land grant colleges, extension agencies, low interest loans paid for by the government if you defaulted, GI Bill, etc. I won't be thankful for slavery white boy.
Wow, my ancestors didn’t get any freebies
 
The only people ignoring things are whites who try talk about what happened everywhere else but in America.
What happened everywhere else that connects back to this country puts you in denial. You aren’t bothered that some of your ancestors were probably sold to slave owners in other countries?
 
The fact is this thread is not about slavery. None of the shit that happened in America has nothing to do with Africans. Nor do the 155 years of continuing racism after slavery by whites to this point. I could not blame the dope man for the addiction I have for MAKING THE CHOICE of buying the drugs. Whites MADE THE CHOICE to buy slaves and they made other choices.

The major problem with the excuses is that America had every chance not to own slaves. We are told by some how the so-called founders of this country created the way to end slavery when they wrote the constitution. Many will cite the fact they made the importation of slaves illegal by 1808 as evidence. But refusing to stop importing slaves did not end the slaving business in the United States. What it produced was an original American industry-slave breeding.

You see, if America had continued to import slaves, it would have diluted the market thereby driving down the costs of slaves. Slave sellers could not have this. So instead of the truth, we are told that “our nearer to God than thee” founders in all their benevolent glory, looked towards a future whereby slavery would be no more. According to some, the so-called founders had a dream whereby little black boys and little black girls would no longer be enslaved because of the color of their skin. This is the story we are supposed to believe. However, reality does not show that.

“In fact, most American slaves were not kidnapped on another continent. Though over 12.7 million Africans were forced onto ships to the Western hemisphere, estimates only have 400,000-500,000 landing in present-day America. How then to account for the four million black slaves who were tilling fields in 1860? “The South,” the Sublettes write, “did not only produce tobacco, rice, sugar, and cotton as commodities for sale; it produced people.” Slavers called slave-breeding “natural increase,” but there was nothing natural about producing slaves; it took scientific management. Thomas Jefferson bragged to George Washington that the birth of black children was increasing Virginia’s capital stock by four percent annually.”

Ned & Constance Sublette, The American Slave Coast: A History of the Slave-Breeding Industry

To be blunt, America had slave breeding “factories” where slaves were forced to breed. I call them factories but in most cases they are described as farms. These “farms” generally had at least a 2:1 female to male ratio. In some states, slave production was the number 1 industry. Virginia led the nation in slave production and PRESIDENT Thomas Jefferson was one of the main producers. The slave breeding industry has been hidden and left out of the annals of American history. This was done on purpose.
You do blame whites for selling drugs to blacks
 
Since I am the OP, it is my responsibility to keep this thread on topic. This thread is not about what Africans did, hence the thread title. So I will repost the OP and see if people are adult enough to discuss the issues presented.

This was done on purpose.

After reading how this was done it becomes very easy to see why. There are just some wrongs that cannot be excused by the belief that holding past generations to modern standards is wrong. Basically, the slave breeding industry manufactured human beings to be sold into labor. It is very difficult to read the atrocities associated with such a practice and not get angry. To hear whites today just dismiss the entire enterprise of slavery like it was just some short term inconsequential inconvenience this country experienced for a little while that we as blacks should just forget is for the lack of a better word, crap. For someone black to mimic that opinion is just pure accommodationist lunacy. If you think that is a radical opinion, consider the stories from former slaves you are about to read.

Plenty of the colored women have children by the white men. She know better than to not do what he say. Didn’t have much of that until the men from South Carolina come up here [North Carolina] and settle and bring slaves. Then they take them very same children what have they own blood and make slaves out of them. If the Missus find out she raise revolution. But she hardly find out. The white men not going to tell and the ****** women were always afraid to. So they jes go on hopin’ that thing won’t be that way always.

W. L. BOST, enslaved in North Carolina, interviewed 1937 [WPA Slave Narrative Project]

The slave traders would buy young and able farm men and well developed young girls with fine physique to barter and sell. They would bring them to the taverns where there would be the buyers and traders, display them and offer them for sale. At one of these gatherings a colored girl, a mulatto of fine stature and good looks, was put on sale. She was of high spirits and determined disposition. At night she was taken by the trader to his room to satisfy his bestial nature. She could not be coerced or forced, so she was attacked by him. In the struggle she grabbed a knife and with it, she sterilized him and from the result of injury he died the next day. She was charged with murder. Gen. Butler, hearing of it, sent troops to Charles County [Maryland] to protect her, they brought her to to Baltimore, later she was taken to Washington where she was set free. . . This attack was the result of being good looking, for which many a poor girl in Charles County paid the price. There are several cases I could mention, but they are distasteful to me. . . .

RICHARD MACKS, enslaved in Maryland, interviewed 1937 [WPA Slave Narrative Project]

One time dey sent me on Ol’ man Mack Williams’ farm here in Jasper County [Georgia]. Dat man would kill you sho. If dat little branch on his plantation could talk it would tell many a tale ’bout folks bein’ knocked in de head. I done seen Mack Williams kill folks an’ I done seen ’im have folks killed. One day he tol’ me dat if my wife had been good lookin’, I never would sleep wid her agin ’cause he’d kill me an’ take her an’ raise chilluns off’n her. Dey uster [used to] take women away fum dere husbands an’ put wid some other man to breed jes’ like dey would do cattle. Dey always kept a man penned up an’ dey used ’im like a stud hoss.

WILLIAM WARD, enslaved in Georgia, interviewed 1937 [WPA Slave Narrative Project]

Durin’ slavery if one marster had a big boy en ’nuther had a big gal de marsters made dem libe tergedder. Ef’n de ’oman didn’t hab any chilluns, she wuz put on de block en sold en ’nuther ’oman bought. You see dey raised de chilluns ter mek money on jes lak we raise pigs ter sell.

SYLVIA WATKINS, enslaved in Tennessee, interviewed ca. 1937 [WPA Slave Narrative Project]

One white lady that lived near us at McBean slipped in a colored gal’s room and cut her baby’s head clean off ’cause it belonged to her husband. He beat her ’bout it and started to kill her, but she begged so I reckon he got to feelin’ sorry for her. But he kept goin’ with the colored gal and they had more chillun.

Unnamed former slave, enslaved in Georgia, interviewed ca. 1937 [WPA Slave Narrative Project]

This industry included the first employer-based health care program. Female slaves were the first people in America to get free health care. I do not say this to be funny because the reason why that happened was both sad and simple; after the importation of slaves was made illegal, white dependence on slave labor hinged on the continued births of healthy children. After importation was made illegal, the only way left to maintain the system was by increasing the number of slaves through births. Due to this, a black women’s ability to reproduce was of the utmost economic importance to southern planters and to the slave breeders.

I think we need to understand how depraved things were during these times. The range of sexual abuses black slaves included buck breaking, whereby slave masters would rape enslaved black men. Buck Breaking was used as a method to control slave uprisings. If a male slave was considered a trouble maker, the slave master would give that slave a severe beating. Once the slave was beaten basically unconscious, the slave master made the other slaves lay him over a tree stump where his pants would be taken off and the slave owner would perform sodomy on that slave. Enslaved men were forced to have sex with each other in front of their families and they were also raped in front of their sons. Many of these men would kill themselves or run away after this happened to them. However buck breaking was not only used to stop potential slave rebellions.

Black men were also raped for pleasure. Gay people are not a product of modern “liberals.” Gays and lesbians have always been part of the world community. Gay slave owners existed. Gay slave owners bought male slaves. Gay slave owners raped their slaves. Buck breaking got so good to some that “Sex Farms” were created to breed black men for gay white men to have sex with. Gay white men would travel from plantation to plantation in order to rape slaves. I really do not know any other way to describe this because the black men involved really had no choice in what was happening to them.

Buck breaking was part of the slave breeding industry. As I wrote earlier, breeding factories were in business to increase the population of black people by forcing them to have sex in order to maintain cheap slave labor. In many cases black men had to sleep with their daughters, mothers or sisters. If they refused, they were killed. The derogatory term motherfucker originates from this practice. Conversely, black women were forced to sleep with their sons and brothers. Black women were routinely raped by slave owners who felt they were doing these women a favor.

Slaves worked for free. But that did not mean they had no value. Indeed, slaves were literally more valuable than gold.

So whites didn't have to own slaves. They could purchase slave bonds or other slave backed securities. Not only in America but in Europe.

Africans did not do this.

Your posts are being refuted, that’s what people do on message boards, agree or disagree with others. Did you not expect people to call you on your bullshit posts?
 
We don't fully understand the mentality of those people. Slavery was also voluntary, agricultural colonization was the resettlement of slaves, and the slaves were happy with this.
Not all slaves rebelled, but only those who were from enslaved peoples. Unfortunately, slavery is a way of life that shaped the mentality of agricultural peoples.
 
Less than 2% of whites owned slaves in the USA. Over 13% of the free blacks owned slaves here, however.

Looks like more blacks suffered from their own kind than from whitey.

Again, your claim is disingenuous.

So what do the actual numbers of black slave owners and their slaves tell us? In 1830, the year most carefully studied by Carter G. Woodson, about 13.7 percent (319,599) of the black population was free. Of these, 3,776 free Negroes owned 12,907 slaves, out of a total of 2,009,043 slaves owned in the entire United States, so the numbers of slaves owned by black people over all was quite small by comparison with the number owned by white people. In his essay, " 'The Known World' of Free Black Slaveholders," Thomas J. Pressly, using Woodson's statistics, calculated that 54 (or about 1 percent) of these black slave owners in 1830 owned between 20 and 84 slaves; 172 (about 4 percent) owned between 10 to 19 slaves; and 3,550 (about 94 percent) each owned between 1 and 9 slaves. Crucially, 42 percent owned just one slave.

Pressly also shows that the percentage of free black slave owners as the total number of free black heads of families was quite high in several states, namely 43 percent in South Carolina, 40 percent in Louisiana, 26 percent in Mississippi, 25 percent in Alabama and 20 percent in Georgia. So why did these free black people own these slaves?

It is reasonable to assume that the 42 percent of the free black slave owners who owned just one slave probably owned a family member to protect that person, as did many of the other black slave owners who owned only slightly larger numbers of slaves. As Woodson put it in 1924's Free Negro Owners of Slaves in the United States in 1830, "The census records show that the majority of the Negro owners of slaves were such from the point of view of philanthropy. In many instances the husband purchased the wife or vice versa … Slaves of Negroes were in some cases the children of a free father who had purchased his wife. If he did not thereafter emancipate the mother, as so many such husbands failed to do, his own children were born his slaves and were thus reported to the numerators."

Moreover, Woodson explains, "Benevolent Negroes often purchased slaves to make their lot easier by granting them their freedom for a nominal sum, or by permitting them to work it out on liberal terms." In other words, these black slave-owners, the clear majority, cleverly used the system of slavery to protect their loved ones.




Let's do the math. 3,776 blacks owned 12,907 slaves. That's 3 slaves per each black person. Blacks owned 12,907 slaves. There were 2,009,043 slaves in the U.S. Blacks owned 0.006 percent of all the slaves in America. Whites owned the other 99 plus percent.13.7 percent of all blacks were free at this time. This means 86.3 percent were enslaved. So the claim made is inaccurate.
 
We don't fully understand the mentality of those people. Slavery was also voluntary, agricultural colonization was the resettlement of slaves, and the slaves were happy with this.
Not all slaves rebelled, but only those who were from enslaved peoples. Unfortunately, slavery is a way of life that shaped the mentality of agricultural peoples.
Bullshit.
 
Bullshit.
And you think about the fact that there would be no American blacks at all if it were not for that colonization. The resource of Africa alone is limited. Yesterday they were slaves, and today they inhabit the Great Plains and the West Coast, and they are going to be half the population of the United States. Who is the winner?

Now the Chinese live in extreme poverty and they have no rights, almost like slaves. But they are actively developing Siberia, their settlements are already in Chelyabinsk. Today they are labor migrants there, and tomorrow they will start inventing the history of Chinese Siberia and raise the Chinese flag there.

Prussian colonists first settled in Austria as peasants, and then proclaimed that Austria is Germany.

Etc.

You really don't know what you're talking about.
 
You might crunch some numbers, the interviews were done in 1937, the interviewees would be eighty two years old IF they were born the year slavery ended. To have the memories they claim, they would have to over a hundred years old in 1937. So what if American slaves had children who became slaves. Every culture that held slaves enslaved the children born to slaves. You are always trying to make slavery in America unique and uniquely horrible when it wasn’t. I agree that by modern standards slavery was evil and reprehensible, but you can’t morally judge past actions by current standards. Prior to the nineteenth century everyone held slaves and the US was the only country to fight a bloody war to end the practice. The US and RN were the countries that operated the naval anti-slaving patrols that choked off the supply of slaves at the source and went a long way towards making slavery economically unfeasible. Believe whatever nonsense you like, but it was the actions of idealistic white people that ended slavery in the western world. Blacks and Islamics still practice slavery today and show no willingness to end the practice.

What Islamic country is that?
 
I am trying to find a brilliant article about the economic impact of the slave trade on Africa by an African female economist.. I think her name is Tundi something. African kings an cdhieftains did raid sister tribes and sell them to the Dutch, Portuguese etc.

The Europeans had no ability to penetrated Africa beyond the coast.

I'll keep looking.

Who owes what to whom?
The supply line of history rarely lies. If the ancestors of people who enslaved people owe reparations to the ancestors of those who were enslaved, then perhaps it is time for a “conversation” -- as the left likes to put it -- about paying reparations to the descendants of people who fought and died to help free enslaved people.
Someone ought to put the question to CNN’s Don Lemon -- who endlessly lectures about the moral necessity of paying reparations to the descendants of the enslaved -- even if the people who will be “asked’ (another term the left likes to use when the left means forced) to pay them not only had nothing to do with enslaving anyone but had ancestors who fought and died to free the enslaved.
Thus was Don Lemon schooled by Hilary Fordwich, an expert on the British Royal family, who was recently interview-attacked by Lemon following the death of Queen Elizabeth II. She had come to discuss the royal succession. Lemon invited her there to gaslight her about “

Commentary:
Lemon’s response to being schooled about the truth? “Well, that’s an interesting concept.”
Perhaps Lemon should check the facts first. History shows that only 5% of all slaves brought to the Americas came to the US. The other 95% went to Central America South America and the Caribbean. Why do the blacks in those places never cry for reparations?
Answer: No Maoist/DSA Democrat Commies pushing their racist agenda.
Meanwhile, we see np outcry about current slavery, and human trafficking being practiced in the Muslim world today....

Perhaps Lemon should check the facts first. History shows that only 5% of all slaves brought to the Americas came to the US. The other 95% went to Central America South America and the Caribbean. Why do the blacks in those places never cry for reparations?
Answer: No Maoist/DSA Democrat Commies pushing their racist agenda.
Meanwhile, we see np outcry about current slavery, and human trafficking being practiced in the Muslim world today....
Lemon was not schooled.

Approximately 400,00 Africans were shipped to America by 1808. By 1860, there were 4 million blacks here. Africans dif not create 9 times more blacks than got shipped here. Whites breeding slaves did. Africans did not create Black Codes. Africans did not create Jim Crow by the Plessy decision and Africans are not practicing systemic racism now. That Englishman was disingenuous but thats how racists do things. The British army was posted in Africa and not every African that ended up a slave was sold willingly by other Africans. The English gave favored tribes guns to use in exchange for war captives in a whole lot of cases.

Seems like this part of the story evades some white people.
 
Where in the Muslim world? Be specific.

Yeah, he was. AFRICANS enslaved fellow AFRICANS.

You want reparations? Go whine to them.
