And black African’s are still selling black African slaves to the Arab world 🤷♂️ but it’s hard for some to hear, White Privilege is a myth
And what about the North’s soldiers and families like mine who fought and won liberating slaves in the south?
You hear a British accent and automatically think the person is correct. She is so wrong! No African sold his own people to European slave drivers.
Both parties would be responsible the buyer and the seller. This passing the buck is lazy and unprofessional. Be honest you don’t have a plan and you just wanna ride the coattails of those who have a larger platform then your self.
My great, great grandfather joined the Union army, was wounded in the battle of Atlanta, captured by confederate troops, then survived starvation and disease in Andersonville. Not that we would want it, but if reparation were to become reality, why is our family not entitled?
The money trail of the Slave Trade started and ended in Britain at its most lucrative point. No monetary system equivalent in Africa during this point in history friend. Black people didn’t sell sh’t, ain’t get sh’t. The 💰 is still in Britain. They paraded a bit of it this week.
That’s what I tell my people “The Aztecs had slaves yet you celebrate them” 🤷🏻♂️ They don’t want to talk about that!
Are you saying the African Countries that profited from selling Slaves should pay? That makes more sense.
A return ticket would do for them and their ilk, with @donlemon on the first boat to Liberia.
If reparations were really considered they would have to come from both Africa and Europe. I would also point out that nobody talks about Arab colonialism. Muslim nations are in Africa today yet the world is fixated on tiny Israel which makes up only 0.11% of the world's land. pic.twitter.com/j8nKQwmPU1
i’ve been so far removed from the cooning i forgot it existed… have you no shame?? be fr
In fact, in Africa, we marched ourselves to the slave ships, and had women whose sole purpose was to birth little slaves to march up to the slave ships. #Revisionists
Actually it was the Spaniards or brown people who brought every slave to North and South America. The English colonies got slaves by pirating Spanish ships who were carrying slaves. British never did the slave trade. .
You are just as clueless as the interviewer and the interviewee. His question to her was about reparations for Colonialism not slave trade I guess you are unable to tell the difference between the two. Disappointed in @donlemon for having zero response to her nonsense
Still mad that Obama didn’t endorse your senate campaign huh.
Worth noting, england, Portugal and Spain were the human traffickers... As @VernonForGA said, they were willingly sold by their own people to the traffickers.
You loss and your continuous pandering to become the “black best friend” isn’t working. STFU and go away already!
Like they just woke up and started selling slaves? Arabs, white people came with GUNS, killed black people easily, so what choice did they have?
There’s no in the America that’s absolves one from participating in a crime.
What about the Irish, statistically no other recognized nation had their population decimated so much by the direct actions of the British Empire looking specifically at the mid 19th century.
Did Africans Call them to Africa to come buy slaves or did they go there while Africans were on their own in Africa. F00L at 50
Just when I think humans have reached the apex of stupidity you find another vein to tap.🙄
Actually it was the Spainiards who brought the slaves to South & North America . British pirated their slave ships for their gold. British slaves were not bought were pirated by mistake. British fought to stop the slave trade. So did many white Republicans during civil war.
White slave masters got reparations. Why shouldn't the descendants of actual slaves get some?
Sorry to say but every race had slaves also African kings rounded up there people and sold them.! Historian spilled the beans on Don Lemon last night and on newsmaxx !!!
She's not correct. If we were talking about selling child sex slaves, we wouldn't say the buyers weren't culpable or we should give them a pass and only prosecute the sellers. BOTH parties owe reparations. Period.
Barack and Come-La are both descendants of slave owners. In addition there were 3,777 black slave owners. Their descendants are hiding in plain sight among ADOS. The most rabid black Democrats like @ElieNYC @esglaude @MichaelEDyson etc. could be descendants of black slave owners
Not only did they sell them, they were brutal on them while keeping them in cages
