Slavery facts *

What do you really know about slavery??

Did you know?

Overwhelming Majority of Americans never owned slaves. Only 1.9% did and it was typically plantation owners. Were you also unaware that there were also free black men throughout America's history even from the beginning. And free black men also owned plantations.... they owned white & black slaves. This is something they havent taught this in schools in 45 years.... which is why people today (from MZ gen onward) are clueless about anything except the revisionist history being taught in schools from non reputable sources, (cuz there is an agenda going on with a destructive purpose).

And also in the teaching going on they conveniently dont teach and act like they have amnesia about the  lives lost fighting to end slavery in civil war. That price for freedom was shed mainly by white blood 🤷‍♀️.

What about them? what about all those white lives lost to ensure slavery ended in the US?

620,000 died.... approximately equal to all the American fatalities in: the Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, the Mexican War, the Spanish American War, World War I, World War II, and the Korean War, combined. So what about their families of generations left behind? What about the ones who survived who fought the war and their ancestors? And why would any blacks not here during slavery, and any who were always free people then, and why would any black plantation owner and their generations of families be entitled to "reparations"? Also why would anyone in CA?... there were no slaves in California! The entire thing is a circus show for free money from everyone else right into black pockets today - for those who never worked for it. Just more nefarious attempts to steal others hard earned money. Like the BLMers who raked in millions and walked off w the money to buy mansions in rich areas. Its a sham and a scam. It's time to stand up against this nonsense. Today everyone has equal opportunities. Even the 25 million poor white people in USA, tho they dont have access to the black scholarships and free "Affirmative Action" money and benefits. It is time to stop the nonsense. 

A brief history of slavery

Here’s the first thing you need to know. 

Slavery was not “invented” by white people. 

It did not start in 1619 when the first slaves came to Jamestown. 

It existed before then. WAY before then.

It did not start in 1492 when Columbus discovered the New World.

In fact, when the intrepid explorer landed in the Bahamas, the native Taino tribe hoped he could help them defeat their aggressive neighbors, the Caribs. The Caribs enslaved the Taino and, on occasion, served them for dinner.

Slavery existed in Africa, Asia and the Middle East. 

The word “slave” actually comes from the Slavs of Eastern Europe. Millions of them — all white by the way — were captured and enslaved by Muslims in the 9th century and later by the Ottoman Turks.

Slavery existed when the Roman Empire controlled the Mediterranean and most of Europe from the 1st through the 5th centuries.

Slavery existed when Alexander the Great conquered Persia in the 4th century BC. It was so common that Aristotle simply considered it “natural.” The slave/master model was just how the world operated in the great philosopher’s day.  

It was not new to the world just since the biblical days of Joseph or Israel or the ancient Romans. 

Slavery existed during the time of the ancient Egyptians five thousand years ago.

As far back we can go in human history, we find slavery. 

As renowned historian John Steele Gordon notes, from time immemorial, “slaves were a major item of commerce...As much as 1/3 of the population of the ancient world was enslaved.” 

Here’s the second thing you need to know. 

White people were the first to formally put an end to slavery. 

In 1833, Britain was the first country in the history of the world to pass a Slavery Abolition Act. They were quickly followed by France, who in 1848 abolished slavery in her many colonies. Then, of course, came the 13th Amendment to the United States Constitution. After centuries of human slavery, white men led the world in putting an end to the abhorrent practice. Americans got rid of it in 200 years; the fastest of all nations. We put an end to it. 

That includes the hundreds of thousands of Union soldiers, overwhelmingly white, who died fighting during the Civil War.

Am I saying that this makes white people better than anyone else?

Of course not.  

But to vilify white people, and claim they are all racist and all owe black people something is wrong, and satanic. Because the white people are the ones who fought to end slavery. Not just any slavery, not proper ancient slavery, but to end wrong slavery. 

My purpose here is to simply tell the truth, and the truth is that human history is complicated; no one, regardless of skin color, stands guiltless. 

Yet today we are never told to consider the murderous Persian Empire or the cannibalism of indigenous tribes of North and South America, or the heinous actions under the imperialistic Muslim, Chinese, Mongol, or Japanese Empires, to name just a few.

Instead, we’re told that slavery is a white phenomenon.  

Like all persistent lies, this lie spawns a bunch of other lies.  

On social media I come across extraordinary depictions about how Africans lived liked pharaohs before Europeans came and laid waste to their paradise. 

I wish any of this were true. But it’s not. It’s a fantasy. 

The truth is that Africans were sold into slavery by other black Africans. And in many cases, sold for items as trivial as gin and mirrors. 

Whites didn’t go into the interior and round up the natives. They waited on the coast for their black partners to bring them black bodies. 

The stark reality is that our lives had very little value to our ancestors.

Here’s the third thing you need to know. 

If you think slavery is a relic of the past, you’re wrong. 

Not across the last 200 years, not in the last 2,000 years, but every year in recent years there's millions still enslaved and being enslaved globally...

Theres 1 million black men, women and children still slaves right now. They are bought, owned, sold, and traded by Arab and Muslim masters in 5 African countries. 

👉This does not include the ones enslaved in the Middle Eastern countries!

For context, that’s almost twice as many slaves as were ever brought to the United States. In addition, child soldiers, human sex trafficking, forced labor—these are the conditions that currently exist within the same sub-Saharan region where the transatlantic slave trade originated. 

African bodies are being sold today like they were sold then—and no, they are not being purchased by any country of white men. In fact, slavery, by any traditional definition, is exclusively practiced today within nonwhite countries.

But you hear almost nothing about this. 

Just as you hear nothing about this:

Muslims through out slave history used to castrate male slaves to ensure there were no reproduction happening among the black slaves, they ensured there were no offspring of the slaves... unlike America which gave the slaves their dignity and humanity by allowing them to have children. 

Nor about sex trafficking and sex slavery happening worldwide.

Just like we are taught nothing in public school about how slavery was historically happening, and universally happening, until good people in Europe and USA ended it two centuries ago, and continue to stamp it out globally. 

Why?

Because todays so-called “leaders” — black and white — wouldn’t profit from it. Black victimhood industry is nothing if there's no profit. It elects politicians and funds racial grievance groups. It divides America so we are not united. Division and Hatred makes a profit. It also allows Satan to continue to perpetrate hatred "human against human" and instigate and continue all the evil that stems out of such hatred and division.  

And so if black Americans began to view themselves as equals and partners in the American dream… 

If we embraced the patriotic spirit that holds all men are created equal, the patriotic spirit that is our real heritage…

Then the evil "race hustlers" would soon be out of business.

And who wants that?

They don't, but I hope you do!

Love One Another, and thus defeat the evil people profiting and Satan who is behind this entire plot. If they have no hold on your mind and cannot get you to hate others, then their agenda loses steam and fizzles away. Together we can defeat evil, but you can only overcome evil with good. 

Remember that problems you have between yourself and another person is an individual problem not a problem with an entire race. Also that the core issue is a sin issue not a ethnic one. 

Remember that only love conquers evil and hate.
