First American slave owner was BLACK.

[John T. Ford]

You are completely incorrect.

Yep ...

And, I'm 6 foot 5 and a billionaire playboy too ....

But, just because you make those claims on the Internet doesn't necessarily mean they are true, now does it?

You are parroting revised history bullshit ..... with nothing to back up your claim.

 

[IM2]

Wrong. States had legalized slavery long before Johnson and it was Hugh Gwynn who got the court to decide he could own his indentured servant for life as property.

Now would you like to explain how blacks implemented vagrancy laws, convict leasing, black codes, sundown towns, jim crow, redlining and restrictive covenants.

Which Virginia Court was Huge Gwynn sentenced in?

What was the exact year this occurred?

Uh-hmm .....

You are parroting revised history bullshit.

No, that's what you're doing.

John Punch was was sentenced to slavery in 1640 by the Virginia Governors Council. He was owned by Hugh Gwynn who was a member of the Virginia House of Burgesses. This was 15 years before Johnson.

You have posted a common white racist meme promoted online.

This thread is pushing a white racist lie. It is not about surveillance. Surveillance happened here long before trump started lying about it happening to him.

Surveillance is abused by people. By anyone who has access. That includes all people including African Americans. I say this to you because there is a lot more then Police Body Cams. But you know this. I say this because not one, not one person who has messed with social media, video and audio devices on people has stood up to admit it. This over decades. You must include this in your reform packages. Besides, there are people who have been messed with from before anything happens that will never be satisfied. What this means is that it makes our nation easier to self destruct. And that technically, would bring vengeance.

[wamose]

But is Black on Black slavery any better than it is in the CHOP? Not really. They have slaves in there too not to mention one of the highest murder and crime rates in the nation.

For those denying that the Irish were also slaves, not just indentured servants:


Irish Slavery in America
" To hell or Barbados....." a book written by Sean Callaghan reveals the truths behind the Irish who were sold into slavery.
After the Battle of Kinsale 1601, the English had captured some 30,000 military prisoners, and thus created an official policy of banishment, or transportation. James II encouraged selling the Irish as slaves to planters and settlers in the New World colonies. The first recorded sale of Irish slaves was to a settlement on the Amazon River, in 1612.
In 1625, an offical Proclaimination ordered for Irish prisoners to get rounded up and sold as slaves to English Planters. Between 1629 and 1632 a large numbers of Irish, men and women, were sent to Guiana, Antiqua and Montserrat. By 1637 approx 69% of the population of Montserrat were Irish slaves.Negro slaves had to be purchased, 20 to 50 pound sterling, Irish slaves were captured and sold for 900 pounds of cotton. The Irish became the largest source of slaves for English slave traders.
From 1641 to 1652, over 550,000 Irish were killed by the English and 300,000 more were sold as slaves. As more men were transported, leaving their wives and children behind, they too were also rounded up and sold as slaves. Irish women and their daughters were of lighter complection than the black slaves and were considered more valuable as domestic slaves.
In 1649, Cromwell began a campaign of terror on Ireland. All captured soldiers were transported to be sold into slavery. A few months later, in 1650, 25,000 Irish were sold to planters in St. Kitt. During the 1650s , over 100,000 Irish children, generally from 10 to 14 years old, were taken from their parents, and sold as slaves in the West Indies, Virginia and New England. In fact, more Irish were sold as slaves to the American colonies from 1651 to 1660 than the total existing “free” population of the Americas! In1652, Cromwell ordered that the Irish were to be transported overseas, starting with 12,000 Irish prisoners sold to Barbados. The infamous “ To Hell or to Connacht ” proclamation was issued on 1 May 1654, confiscating all Irish held lands, and the native Irish were to relocated west of the Shannon or be transported to the West Indies. To expediate the process in 1657 the law was further clarified to read: : “Those who fail to transplant themselves into Connaught or Co Clare within six months... Shall be attained of high treason... are to be sent into America or some other parts beyond the seas... those banished who return are to suffer the pains of death as felons by virtue of this act, without benefit of Clergy.”
It was not a crime to kill any Irish, as soldiers were encouraged to do, but the slave trade proved too profitable to ignore. As a result 52,000 Irish, were sold to Barbados and Virginia alone. Another 30,000 Irish men and women were taken prisoners and ordered transported and sold as slaves. In 1656, Cromwell’s Council of State ordered that 1000 Irish girls and 1000 Irish boys be rounded up and taken to Jamaica to be sold as slaves to English planters. Still there were more as little record was kept of this activity.
Few people realize from 1600 -1699, more Irish were sold as slaves than Africans.
Servant indentures were a mutual agreement whereby a servant would sell a period of time in exchange for passage, in return he would receive housing, food, clothing, and usually a piece of

land at the end of the term of service. But the Irish were more often an exception. Sometimes the slavery was not recorded as such, or not recorded at all.
From 1625 the Irish were sold, with one purpose -as slaves. There were no indenture agreements, no protection, no choice. They were captured and turned over to shippers to be sold for their profit. The profits were huge, 900 pounds of cotton for an Irish slave. Everyone in the slave trade from Ireland made a profit, except for the slave.
Irish and African slaves were housed in the same facilities and were the property of the plantation owner. The planters had to pay more for a black slave. African Negroes cost generally about 20 to 50 pounds Sterling, compared to 900 pounds of cotton (about 5 pounds Sterling) for an Irish. Blacks were treated better.
The Pope and all Roman Catholics were considered an enemy of God and civilization. Any infraction was treated harshly and severely. Many Irish died as a result of their treatment. It was not a crime to kill an Irish slave, mearly a loss.However Parliament saw the need to enact certain protection for slaves. In 1677 , the Parliament passed the Act to Regulate the treatment of Slaves on British Plantations, designating authorized punishments to include whippings and brandings for slave offenses against a Christian. Irish Catholics were not considered Christians, so these protections did not apply.
The planters began breeding the Irish women, because it was profitable. Children of slaves were themselves slaves. Planters then began to breed Irish women with African men to produce more slaves who had lighter skin and brought a higher price. In 1681, legislation was passed “forbidding the practice of mating Irish slave women to African slave men for the purpose of producing slaves for sale.” Not out of moral consideration, but because slave traders saw it as competation .
In 1691, following the Battle of the Boyne and the defeat of King James , the Irish slave trade had a fresh supply of captives ready to transport. For the next 100 years or more the policy remained with transportation of Irish men, women and children , to be sold into slavery- a policy of ethnic cleansing .
Finally, in 1839, a bill was passed in England forbidding these activities, bringing the Irish Slave trade to an end.

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

Oh it's clear you feel guilty, you're in denial...

I just learn from history and let my own moral compass tell me what's right.

So where's your moral compass in regards to abortion???

Blacks are subjected to modern day white power and money, and have never been accepted into white society

White power and money??? Do you honestly think there are FACTS to support your stupid assertions???

If you haven't figured out by now who has all the money and power, you've been living in a cave this whole time.

As for your off topic morality question on abortion, the fact that abortion is morality, unless you can prove otherwise.

I'm in denial? Really? How so?

Why do people continue to believe this consistently debunked bullshit? First of all the picture used in the bullshit scam about Anthony Johnson is actually a portrait of Lewis Hayden born in 1811.

Lewis Hayden - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

Secondly you have to be one poor, silly, illiterate bastard to believe that Black people were the first to own a slave when whites had been bringing them over from Africa as slaves for almost a century prior. Slavery started in the americas as early as 1619

First Enslaved Africans Arrive in Jamestown Colony

Some 20 Angolans, kidnapped by the Portuguese, arrive in the British colony of Virginia and are then bought by English colonists. The arrival of the enslaved Africans in the New World marks a beginning of two and a half centuries of slavery in North America.

www.history.com

On this day in 1619, “20 and odd” Angolans, kidnapped by the Portuguese, arrive in the British colony of Virginia and are then bought by English colonists. The arrival of the enslaved Africans in the New World marks a beginning of two and a half centuries of slavery in North America.

Even so the first documented slave was a guy by the name of John Punch owned by a white guy named Hugh Gwynn.

John Punch (slave) - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

For this reason, historians consider John Punch the "first official slave in the English colonies, and his case as the "first legal sanctioning of lifelong slavery in the Chesapeake." Historians also consider this to be one of the first legal distinctions between Europeans and Africans made in the colony and a key milestone in the development of the institution of slavery in the United States.

 

[BWK]

I don't believe it. They couldn't possibly have good record keeping back then.

we have records that go back thousands of years,,,and this one is court records and they are heavily protected and preserved,,,

There was white on white slavery thousands of years ago, and your point is?

That it's all bullshit.

Slavery is not bullshit. It's real.

Indeed, and still practiced heavily in Africa. Why don't their black lives matter?

We don't live and rule in Africa. Next?

Reality is Slavery still exists around the World and North Korea is considered one of the biggest Slave States on this planet and yet everyone act like Slavery is rare and only Whites ever did it.

You just wrote about how White Society does not accept the Black community while ignoring reality slavery still goes on in this country with sex slave labor to Hispanics, Asians and Africans along with Eastern Europeans being kept as slaves but let ignore reality and pretend it does not exist like many on the left do...

Is that your idea of an excuse? Sex slaves? All you are doing is trying to cover for what happened yesterday and today. You are part of the problem by mentioning other forms of slavery, instead of wanting something done about it. Mentioning it, doesn't stop it. So stop being part of the problem.

Exactly ...

That's why we need a secure border.

Republicans are still trying to stop Democrats from allowing Slavery in this Country.

An un secure border enabled the US to take over Central and South America, creating the slave labor and refuge crisis we face today because of our invasions into this country. I think you are too confused on who's borders need protecting.

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.

And blacks were the owners of some of those slaves.

Freed blacks primarily purchased family members, spouses and children.

"primarily" LOL

Even today there are slaves in China, North Korea, South America, Africa, and other 3rd world nations. Most of them are the SEX - slave trades, but you dont hear about that do you? Maybe now and again, but it is just a passing phase, just ask Jeffery Epstein...Oh, wait a minute..Maybe we should ask Bill Clinton who visited the island of Jeffie, and flew down on Jeffery Epstien's Air Force one....
