CRT opposition based on political expediency not actual factual history

[IM2]

What is white racist?

You.

 

[IM2]

Obviously liberal terminology.

No, it's a proper description of a subculture in the white community that practices racism.

 

[sakinago]

You can "come to conclusions" after reading many things...usually by applying logic.

That concept scares the shit out of racists

Lol. So it is CRT. I mean, do y’all have any concept of how to make consistent arguments? This is why people are done with your CRT bullshit.

It’s also fan fiction. The majority of founders tried to abolish slavery at the founding. It was the delegates from 2 states that held out, and threatened to go back under British rule, and create an impossible to defend against foothold for the British if slavery was abolished. Then 80 years later a quarter million white folk fought and died for black folk they never met to actually abolish it. Mind you the rest of the British colonies around the world were still practicing slavery. It’s arguable they were still practicing it until the 1960s.

 

[sartre play]

More total insanity from the political propaganda masters, to create more hate & keep us divided. Each school & each teacher will now add a political twist, instead of just teaching from the text books adding there own view point, some harsher on our country some softer.

It’s bullshit like this that makes teachers want to teach an accurate accounting of how our country was founded.

That’s not CRT… that’s just non racist history

The Founders had no intention of doing away with slavery

Your "understanding" of American history is nonexistent...at best.

Slavery was reluctantly tolerated when Southern slave holding states threatened to boycott the new American
nation unless slavery was left alone to stand as a legal practice.

The fact that we indeed did abolish slavery, after a long bitter war to settle the matter, in part,
seems to make no impact on you at all!

You also seem unable to separate the teaching of US History from the teaching of CRT racist agitprop
that says all whites are naturally prejudiced and inclined to bigotry by nature. That's called racism,
if you couldn't tell.
Your stupidity seems boundless. Crack open some history books, idjit!

So Black Lives Matter members are also racists?

Did you know that the First Official Slave Owner in America was Black?

AnthonyJohnson

Did you know that a large percentage of Blacks Owned Slaves?
Many free Negros owned black slaves, in fact, in numbers disproportionate to their representation in society at large. In 1830, a fourth of the free Negro slave masters in South Carolina owned 10 or more slaves; eight owning 30 or more.

BlackOwners

Did you know that thousands of White people gave their lives to free Black people?

Yea...after 250 years of it the North had to fight people like YOU to "settle the matter"...and you want a cookie ?

Bullshit. First slavery was ended in Haiti before 1800 and the British ended slavery before America.

"The idea that the South fought a war so that it could be left in peace to have slavery merely within its settled boundaries is sometimes voiced as a cherished myth today, but it does not fit the facts on the ground, nor did anyone think so at the time. Quite the contrary: the war was fought over the expansion of slavery."

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

America had every chance not to implement slavery. We are told 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.

"During the fifty-three years from the prohibition of the African slave trade by federal law in 1808 to the debacle of the Confederate States of America in 1861, the Southern economy depended on the functioning of a slave-breeding industry, of which Virginia was the number-one supplier."​

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.”
​

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.

And not only did most of the Founders own slaves...those who recognized the evil of it did very little

The Founding Fathers and Slavery | History, Impact & Legacy

Although many of the Founding Fathers acknowledged that slavery violated the core American Revolutionary ideal of liberty, their simultaneous commitment to private property rights, principles of limited government, and intersectional harmony prevented them from making a bold move against slavery.

How Many Slaves Did Blacks Own?

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.

Did Black People Own Slaves?

For those who are wondering about the retro title of this black history series, please take a moment to learn about historian Joel A. Rogers

www.theroot.com

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 about black slave ownership is untrue.

 

[healthmyths]

The first slaveowner was not black.
A large number of blacks did not own slaves and the majority who did purchased family members.
Blacks have died in every war or military action this nation has had, even when they were not free.

PROVE IT! I PROVED A LINK! YOU...NOTHING BUT YOUR PERSONAL OPINION WHICH IS WORTHLESS! PROVE IT!

 

[IM2]

Slaves were here long before 1655. The Spanish had black slaves in the 1500's. Slaves got off the ship in 1619. If you want to dismiss that, Massachusetts made slavery legal in 1641. Hugh Gywnn a member of the Virginia House of Burgesses made a black man named John Punch a slave for life. Anthony Johnsons case was in 1655. So he was not the first person to own slaves and the fact is the WHITES MADE SLAVERY LEGAL IN AMERICA!

Your link was bunk. I stsated facts and backed them up. Everything you posted was a bullshit lie.

Because teaching anti-white racism is not a good idea.

Not to mention untrue.

Africa is again the world’s epicenter of modern-day slavery​

Armed conflict, state-sponsored forced labor, and forced marriages were the main causes behind the estimated 9.2 million Africans who live in servitude without the choice to do so, according to the 2018 Global Slavery Index. And despite these practices being widespread, slavery has remained a largely invisible issue, in part, because it disproportionately affects the most marginalized members of society, such as minorities, women, and children.

Slavery was especially prevalent in Eritrea and Mauritania, where slavery has even been, at times, an institutionalized practice. In Eritrea, for instance, the one-party state of president Isaias Afwerki has overseen a notorious national conscription service accused of drafting citizens for an indefinite period, contributing to the wave of refugees fleeing the country. Workers that have claimed that they were forced to work in the nation’s first modern mine are also currently suing the Vancouver-based mining company Nevsun that owns a majority stake in the mine.

Africa is again the world’s epicenter of modern-day slavery

Armed conflict, state-sponsored forced labor, and forced marriages were still prevalent in Africa.
