First American slave owner was BLACK.

[John T. Ford]

I call BS. Show me a grade school history book that teaches blacks owned slaves.

It doesn't exist ....

And, there is a reason for that.

 

[John T. Ford]

Does this somehow absolve him of enslaving people?

Johnson not only owned the first slave in the US.

He set a precedent that led to Slavery in the US.

Within three years of Johnson's successful court ruling .... the Common Wealth of Virginia passed similar laws stating that ALL free Black, White, and Indian, could own slaves as property.

Thanks to a Black man.

I'm white, and I don't feel guilty. I just learn from history and let my own moral compass tell me what's right. I never owned slaves so I feel no guilt about that. But, what I do know is, Blacks are subjected to modern day white power and money, and have never been accepted into white society. How do we know? Whites would have never created the conspiracy of section 8 housing to keep them segregated, if whites truly believed in their inclusion.

Oh! So we should stop all Section 8 and EBT, amirite? I'm all for that!

Race and Belonging in Colonial America: The Story of Anthony Johnson

Learn about Anthony Johnson, a Black forced laborer who became free in seventeenth-century Virginia.

www.facinghistory.org

Many White Supremacist groups have developed an argument that Anthony Johnson was the first legal slave owner in the British colonies that became the United States. That claim is historically false and misleading. Anthony Johnson was, in fact, enslaved by an English settler on his arrival to North America. The development of the institution of slavery in North America was complex and nuanced. In the 17th century, the enslavement of Africans co-existed with indentured servitude, and laws governing both were in flux. Some of the enslaved, like Johnson, were able to gain their freedom, own land, and benefit from the servitude of others. By the beginning of the 18th century, however, colonies began to make legal distinctions based on new racial categories; the legal status of African Americans deteriorated while the rights of European Americans gained increased protection. A system of slavery in which enslavement was lifelong, hereditary, and based solely on race was established.

Yeah, when it was found out Johnson was the first slave owner, the revisionist had to change history for the Democrats just like they have tried to distance themselves as the owners of slave, fought to keep slaves, terrorized the exslaves and then keep them subjugated to the white Democrats who feed them and give them a home.

no dufus! the ilks like you, are trying to rewrite history!

he was not the first slave owner in America, and he never owned a slave for life... they were indentured servants at the time, and once they served their time, paying back the person who paid for their journey here, they were freed. He was an indentured servant when he first came here, he worked and served his time for the passage here, then was freed.... and then he paid for others to come here, and they were indentured to him, until their time and bill were served and paid....

Unwillful and hereditary Slave ownership for life, came a time after him...

And, blacks owned some of those slaves.

 

[John T. Ford]

I'm white, and I don't feel guilty.

Then goes on to express white guilt.

I just learn from history and let my own moral compass tell me what's right. I never owned slaves so I feel no guilt about that. But, what I do know is, Blacks are subjected to modern day white power and money, and have never been accepted into white society. How do we know? Whites would have never created the conspiracy of section 8 housing to keep them segregated, if whites truly believed in their inclusion.

Folks you can't make this shit up.

 

[John T. Ford]

Anthony Johnson was ONE of the first black Africans to legally own a slave in America. Slavery was legal at the time.

Slavery was not legalize until after the Courts ruled that Johnson could own his indentured servant for life as property.

 

[John T. Ford]

Did I say that, dumbass? Even the founders owned slaves.

And, our Founders also created a Constitution that could be amended to outlaw what Johnson started.

Everyone knows that except maybe a select few dumbasses.

 

[John T. Ford]

Why are you so triggered into defending your point of view in a "useless" thread?

Because the truth interferes with their revised version of history.

 

[John T. Ford]

There was a white man that was a court appointed slaver before Johnson even came to the US.
its time to move past this BS

And, what was his name?

 

[John T. Ford]

What!? There should be reparations....blacks need to give to blacks.

Reparations hell ...

They need to give reparations to me for lying to my ass about all this White Privilege I'm suppose to have had....

This is some of the dumbest shit I've ever read.

We had a black president for 8 years. We have an abundance of black actors & musicians. The NFL and NBA are overwhelmingly black. We have black judges, congressmen, mayors, police chiefs, professors, scientists, the list goes on and on.

How fucking stupid are you, seriously.

Because you are too ignorant and narrow minded to see forest for tree. A black president does not and cannot change white power and money. And if there is a next one, he or she won't either.
