I Went to School in Alabama. We Desperately Needed Critical Race Theory

[IM2]

You've never posted a fact here.

You are a racist demagogue. Black people were unskilled labor. You are a lying moron.

Incorrect. I know you would like to believe that, but that's delusional.

CRT teaches that AA blacks are too dumb, lazy, stupid or whatever else to be able to assimilate into American culture. Literally anyone from anyway can do it. Nigerian Americans make more $$ than white on average. Haitians make more than AA's.

No that's not what it teaches.

The architects of our society were White. Blacks, Indians, and the Chinese didn't add any ideas to the building of this country, they just did the schlep work.

That is incorrect. Furthermore whites were too scared to let other have equal chances.

Say that to the next white person that talks about the constitution. We are talking about what made 2021, and the fact is, you and the others show that the same racism that existed in the 1700's, 1800's, and 1900's still exists.

That's because we did.

So Blacks were the architects of our society? Nope.

Look at Africa, it's still a total mess. You really think anyone's going to let them build another society? lol, that's pretty funny.
The only thing Whites are rightly afraid of is to go into an inner city Black hood.

Whites fucked up African when they colonized it. The only thing blacks are rightly afraid of is being alone in a white neighborhood at night. We have more reason to be scared of that than you do of going into the hood.

The slave economy of the southern states had ripple effects throughout the entire U.S. economy, with plenty of merchants in New York City, Boston, and elsewhere helping to organize the trade of slave-grown agricultural commodities—and enjoying plenty of riches as a result.

“In the decades between the American Revolution and the Civil War, slavery—as a source of the cotton that fed Rhode Island’s mills, as a source of the wealth that filled New York’s banks, as a source of the markets that inspired Massachusetts manufacturers—proved indispensable to national economic development,” Beckert and Rockman write in the introduction to the book. “… Cotton offered a reason for entrepreneurs and inventors to build manufactories in such places as Lowell, Pawtucket, and Paterson, thereby connecting New England’s Industrial Revolution to the advancing plantation frontier of the Deep South. And financing cotton growing, as well as marketing and transporting the crop, was a source of great wealth for the nation’s merchants and banks.”

“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​

In today’s money slaves in 1860 were worth over 127 billion dollars. According to the Sublettes that is a conservative estimate, meaning the amount could be even more. In 1860 the total value of slaves was 17- and one-half times more than the money circulating in the United States economy. Slaves were worth more than the gold, silver, total U.S. currency, plus all the farmland in the South combined in 1860 yet did not receive a dime. Remember that slaves were considered property. Because they were, 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.

Most nations in Africa have been self-ruled for a really long time, and look at their cities, a total mess. A lot of them are even trying to escape to Europe. They must all be tired of the good times in Africa, lol.

The only things US Blacks are afraid of are condoms and staying in school.

You are an ignorant racist (redundant)

{
By 1860, 90 percent of the nation's manufacturing output came from northern states. The North produced 17 times more cotton and woolen textiles than the South, 30 times more leather goods, 20 times more pig iron, and 32 times more firearms. The North produced 3,200 firearms to every 100 produced in the South. Only about 40 percent of the Northern population was still engaged in agriculture by 1860, as compared to 84 percent of the South.

Even in the agricultural sector, Northern farmers were out-producing their southern counterparts in several important areas, as Southern agriculture remained labor intensive while northern agriculture became increasingly mechanized. By 1860, the free states had nearly twice the value of farm machinery per acre and per farm worker as did the slave states, leading to increased productivity. As a result, in 1860, the Northern states produced half of the nation's corn, four-fifths of its wheat, and seven-eighths of its oats.}

Slavery was highly inefficient. Free whites in the North had over 3 times the yield that Negro slaves in the South did. A coerced workforce is neither efficient or effective.

Not only did the slaves not build anything of significance, they retarded the economic growth of the nation.

Unskilled, brute labor builds nothing.

The issue is that virtually all major cities in Africa were build by Colonial Europeans. Once the Europeans left, the indigenous populations lacked the skills to maintain the cities. The Dutch built Nairobi into a magnificent city, but then left. The decay is the result of neglect by a populace incapable of maintaining systems they have not yet developed.

We see the same thing in California, where the state is crumbling due to the third world influx driving out the Americans.

according to an article on africanexponent.com a big factor is political corruption

American Blacks grew up in a White-built country. There may have been Blacks doing some of the heavy lifting, but the architects of American society were White. To CRT, that means institutionalized racism, even though at that time, Asians, Arabs and Blacks WERE inferior to Whites in every way you could mention. Africa is STILL a mess, and nobody's moving to Asia, they're all coming here.

Due to racism, you've failed to learn the truth of USA and world history. In 1400, West Africa was richer than Western Europe. What happened? In 1500, Mexico was richer than Spain. What happened? Hint: it was not natural law.

Google: Benjamin Banneker to find out about how it was whites engineering the country.

Utterly racist and incorrect. Did Europeans build Djenne? Or those ancient stone remains of cities in Nigeria and Benin? Or Meroe? And you never heard of any of that. Yet you presume to post online about African history and culture. What makes someone behave like that? Poor upbringing, exposure to white-right cultist propaganda, an innate sense of inferiority, fear...

 

[Sinajuavi]

America needs to be mostly White. Like 95% White. The 5% should be all the diversity we allow. Maybe even that would be too much. We would be a much better and more prosperous country then.

What idiocy. And just what would you have us do, deport tens of millions of people? We'd be FAR better off just deporting YOU! Problem solved. Das vidanya.

You are confused Moon Bats.

This would be a much better country of we got rid of the Blacks and Browns.

By "get rid of" I don't mean genocide or anything. Just send them to Africa or Mexico or wherever.

Facts are facts Nazi.

Stone remains? Stone age people with stone remains..

The issue is the failure to advance past stone age.

It has nothing to do with race. Tropical climates where living is easy result in stagnated growth, Humans thrive on adversity.

Harsh climates in Europe and Asia forced humans to develop intellectually in order to survive. Lazing in the sun and picking fruit off trees in Africa did not force such development.
