One Century of Honoring Black History

[IM2]

Matt Walsh has started a great series on the history of slavery.

This episode is mostly on the Dahomey nation in Africa that brutally enslaved, tortured, and murdered millions of Africans.



Also interesting that America only received less than half a million African slaves, the vast majority went to central and South America. Yet the propagandist would have us believe the US was the worst perpetrators of slavery.

I won't be watching that load of lies and white fragility bs. I know about Dahomey. I also know how many slaves landed here. But there are all kinds of things Walsh won't show, and of course you will gladly watch the blame blacks for slavery angle that racist punk Walsh will push.

So while Walsh will try to absolve the white man by saying less than 1/2 million slaves landed here, Walsh will not show you how that 400,000 became 4 million by the time the Civil War started.

America had every chance not to implement slavery. We are told how the so-called founders of this country created a way to end slavery when they wrote the Constitution. Many will cite the fact that 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.”

“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.”

“According to database-backed estimates by David Eltis and David Richardson, only about 389,000 kidnapped Africans were disembarked in the ports of the present-day United States, the majority of them before independence. By 1860, those few hundred thousand Africans had given way to four million African Americans.”

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

According to this information, 389,000 slaves landed on the shores of what is now America. By 1860, four million slaves were living here. The importation of slaves was made illegal in 1808. So from 1808 until 1860, the number of slaves increased by at least one thousand percent. If we allow for the Africans selling each other, Africans would be responsible for approximately 389 thousand slaves. What about the 3.1-4 million additional slaves? Africans did not create them.

This was done by forced slave breeding for business, pleasure, and entertainment. Walsh won't tell you that. So do not soil my thread with that disingenuous garbage.

In other words you’re too much of a coward to watch the video.

Africans were far more brutal to their slaves than Americans ever were.

It was the “colonizers” that ended slavery. If Africans were able to, they’d be slaughtering rival tribe members and enslave their “brothers”. Well they actually still do that in Africa, but it would be happening on a much bigger scale if it weren’t for the white colonizers you hate so much.

Here is another example of a white person doing what is necessary to erase the racism that whites started in this country.

No, I don't need to watch what I already know. The colonizers didn't end anything. It was the Africans fighting them that forced the change.

The Schomburg Center for the Research of Black Culture has excellent information about the African slave trade that provides a stark contrast between what happened and what some use as an excuse to discount the experiences of blacks in America. The website is named “The Abolition of the Slave Trade-African Resistance.”

“Africans started to fight the transatlantic slave trade as soon as it began. Their struggles were multifaceted and covered four continents over four centuries. Still, they have often been underestimated, overlooked, or forgotten. African resistance was reported in European sources only when it concerned attacks on slave ships and company barracoons, but acts of resistance also took place far from the coast and thus escaped the slavers’ attention. To discover them, oral history, archaeology, and autobiographies and biographies of African victims of the slave trade have to be probed. Taken together, these various sources offer a detailed image of the varied strategies Africans used to defend themselves from and mount attacks against the slave trade.

The Africans’ resistance continued in the Americas. They ran away, established maroon communities, used sabotage, conspired, and rose against those who held them in captivity. Freed people petitioned the authorities, led information campaigns, and worked actively to abolish the slave trade and slavery.

In Europe, black abolitionists launched or participated in civic movements to end the deportation and enslavement of Africans. They too delivered speeches, provided information, wrote newspaper articles and books. Using violent as well as nonviolent means, Africans in Africa, the Americas, and Europe were constantly involved in the fight against the slave trade and slavery.”

African Resistance - The Abolition of The Slave Trade

Whites enslave each other, and today, whites in Europe still do so. They are mostly sex slaves. You can just drop this argument because you don't know what you are talking about, and the fact that you need to watch Matt Walsh to learn something proves that you are just plain ignorant.

This is rich coming from the white right wing that whines incessantly about non existent anti white discrimination.

You’re so retarded. “Africans” didn’t stop slavery. The Dahomey Slave kingdom didn’t come to an end until the white French colonizers kicked their asses and took over the land.

Obviously you admired the Dahomey King and all the butchering he did of other Africans. It was the white French colonists that were “the real bad guys” because they put a stop to all this barbarism, which to you is just “African culture”?
