I think the main point she is trying to make is that the powers at be will not stop talking about what makes us different and widening the divide between races and cultures because when "you" and "me" becomes "us" *they* are screwed. Pray to God we get there fast.
The first slaves in the Americas were Irish. The first chattel slave owner was black in the colonies. As she said, history is complicated and no one of any race is without guilt. Time to move forward instead of keep looking back.
No the first slaves in American were American Indians captured by other American Indian tribes. Why do we forget about the history of America before the white man?
Irish slaves where fighting for the Union in the Civil War. They would take illiterate people coming off the ships. Tell them make your mark here and you will have a job and pay, feed you and clothe you. They didn't know they where signing up to join the army and go fight and die. If they ran away the sentence was death.
One thing this video didn't mention was that after slavery was abolished in the western world countries like England and France sent navy ships to the Persian Gulf and off the east coast of Africa to try and stop slave ships from going to the Middle East and Asia. After slavery ended in America it was still going strong in the Middle East. The reason there isn't a large population of slave descendants in the Middle East is because they would castrate all the male slaves so they couldn't reproduce.
It's arguably still going on in the Middle East. Apple threatened Meta to remove its products from their app store in 2021, because of rampant "slave for sale" posts on their platforms (Instagram and Facebook), mostly originating in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. News of this sort gets disappointly little press in the West- BBC News Arabic ran the story, but not the main BBC News in the UK. US Congress passed a law outlawing the slave trade in 1807, the same year UK Parliament did. The main difference, is the UK one went into effect immediately, the US went into effect Jan 1, 1808. Within a few years, both countries had classified slave trading as an "Act of Piracy." Starting in 1820, the US Navy had the USS Cyane attached to the Royal Navy's West Africa Squadron to assist with the Blockade of Africa. So, a slight correction of what you said. In both the British Empire and the US, efforts to stop the slave trade were taken PRIOR to either country ending slavery within their own borders. The opinions of societies don't change overnight, nor all at once. It was a series of incremental changes, over the course of several decades.
Before that, Thomas Jefferson sent war ships to the Barbary coast (North African Muslim areas) to fight Barbary pirates, who were taking Americans as slaves from merchant ships. These were called the Barbary wars.
So apparently Africa had 1.2 million white slaves at the end of slavery. The USA only had 300 000 African slaves in total. Bunch more Irish. Brazil had 5 million. I wasn't there but I think these numbers are pretty close. Yhere was black slave owners in the USA.
Unfortunately slavery is a part of EVERYONE'S history. I wish it was different but it's NOT. The narrative we have created around slavery is totally political. It's sad we no longer teach facts. I wish we would get back to teaching the facts in public school!
Here's something that'll blow your minds... In 1776, when the USA declared its' Independence from England, then fought the Revolutionary War, there were three times as many White Europeans enslaved in Northern Africa than there were Black Africans enslaved in the USA. That's like 1,200,000 White slaves, and 400,000 Black slaves. There were White slaves in America too! There were commercial Black slave owners in the USA. Every country in Europe enslaved there own at one point, not just the Slav's. When Candace states England ended slavery in 1833, there were three exceptions; two islands and India, they kept slavery going there until at least the Civil War time in the USA. Within a generation of our Independence from England, the Northern states abolished slavery. Some states did it immediately in 1782 when we won the Revolutionary War. So, I know the Brits' claim they were the first to formally abolish it, technically they allowed their England owned East India Company to continue the practice. I just wanted to point the last fact out to you in case you check out the video of the "British Crusade against slavery" that's out their. In the video the narrator claims that the very thought of slavery being bad was alien to other places in the world, which simply isn't correct. In 1804, our third President Thomas Jefferson sent our Navy to North Africa to stop the White slave trade happening their. If England was against slavery why didn't they stop it? They had the strongest Navy in the world at that time. Hence the Marine hymn lyrics... "From the Halls of Montezuma, to the shores of Tripoli" we will fight our countries battles... Tripoli in North Africa was where the battle took place. Just look at the time line throughout modern history of what took place and when. So, possibly France was technically the 1st to formally put an end to slavery. I'm not picking on England, I'm just a European mixbreed. I have both Celtic and Germanic tribal genes in me. Right now I'm pissed at my English side for what they did to my Irish side throughout history. LOL
In 1804, the Royal Navy was a little bit busy with the French and Spanish navies (heard of Napoleon?), a war that didn't finally end until 1815. Also, please note that the British taxpayers finally finished paying off the cost of abolition in 2015.
There was never slavery as such in India as there was never a shortage of cheap labour. If you mean the menial work was done by low caste Hindus then India is still struggling to suppress that but it is not the same as slavery.
@@Andy-ng9lzvery true. Let's not. Also forget the white indentured servitude/slaves that were sent to work on plantations and such by the British to the new world. You worked off your debt and then you were free. No money but you were free. Was better than leaving them all. Rot in the prison and having to feed them. for the government of England it was easier to sell them or sell their debt rather.
Those in power use many tactics to keep the people divided. Race has been the biggest one lately, but other things too. The one thing they dont like is a well informed population that comes together and looks for similarities rather than differences.
Yeah they just want to artificially create as many dichotomies as possible in order to generate more daily tax dollars. The absolute last thing they want is peace & harmony, though they of course pretend the opposite. The cartels have a firm grip as well, creating the gun/gang culture to facilitate their pipeline.
yep, its always about power and class. Race is just an easy marker, but genetically, apparently the difference is a mere 0.6%. We have so much more in common than differences
Slavery also has different names. My great grandparents were indentured servants; my G'ma was born into it. Not long after my grandmother's birth, my great-grandfather's contract was sold to a wealthy european and he was shipped away, never to be seen again. When my great-grandmother's contract was fulfilled, she was thrown off the property and not allowed to return to see my grandmother. She was also never seen again. My grandmother ran away at 16 because she'd tired of being raped since she was 10. I am white and so are my ancestors. Can anyone please tell me how this is any different than that of slavery, be it whatever you call it?
It's no different than slavery at all. I was able to trace part of my family history to Jamestown... where my first relative in the colonies was an indentured servant that came over on a ship.... she ran away with an "unnamed native" that was also an indentured servant. The other part of my family history is lost to war, famine, persecution. (Irish, Ukranian).... and no record can be found of them. They worked in mills as children, were treated horrendously. Humans have done heinous things to each other throughout history.
Regarding the selling of black slaves by black people, it is important to consider that one of the main misconceptions is that "black Africans" were a thing... Sub-Saharan Africa was a melting pot of hundreds, if not thousands, of different tribes, often at war with each other. They didn't have a common " black" identity. They identified as a member of their particular tribe and the rest where the others. To be conquered, or feared, or avoided... Or enslaved.
Slavery in England has actually been illegal since 1066 when the king said "as soon as a man's feet touch English soil he's a free man" (or something very close) but it wasn't until Englishman Granville Sharp decided America shouldn't have slaves that we put our navy on the case .
I'm glad you guys took the time to learn more, with an open mind. And btw I'm pretty sure there WERE black slave owners in the southern US as well. Just as there were black people fighting on both sides of the Civil War
Reparations are hilarious, lazy bone idle people wanting payment for something that didn't happen to them, or anyone they know, from people that didn't do anything to them!
One thing Candice Owen didn't say in this video is that about 1/3 of the owners of African slaves in the Americas were black. That's something repairationists never talk about.
I can see it in his eyes that the man in this reaction wants to be the victim of something that never happened to him. I have a lot more that I could say here about that. But I'll just leave it with one word, pathetic.
Someone led me to look into the Moors that went into Spain. No matter who the people they all were cut from the same stone. Look at Spain and the architecture, I think it brings a lot to the topic that got us to what we're normally focused on.
I love your videos and thank you for this lesson. And I'm hoping you guys can maybe react to the rap artist DAX. I love his music and I would love to see you guys react to his music.
Great video. I love history. Since you liked Thomas Sowell so much (as well as me) he has a video exactly about this topic and how it was never about race. At least not at first.
I think the real truth of this video is that slavery happened. But in no way does it define who you are today. Unfortunately she is right the United States does seem to be the only country for the most part that dwells on its slavery past. Like Samuel L Jackson said when asked how to stop racism he answered stop talking about it. Perhaps it's time we stop talking about slavery and move on. Nobody that has ancestors that were slaves are any worse or better than I am, we all are "We the People"
It's difficult to escape the Democrat plantation because it lives in the mind. It pervades through your education, your friends, your family. Some people need a little time, once heard it can never be unheard, he'll start noticing truths in his daily life.
I forgot to mention, in the 1600s White Indentured Servants had a slight edge because they were Christian, Aficans and Indians were not. The 1669 Virginia law on the baptism of slaves - This law stipulated that baptism did not alter the legal status of a slave. Heres the law: "An act declaring that baptisme of slaves doth not exempt them from bondage" (1667) WHEREAS some doubts have risen whether children that are slaves by birth, and by the charity and piety of their owners made pertakers of the blessed sacrament of baptisme, should be vertue of their baptisme be made free; It is enacted and declared by this grand assembly, and the authority thereof, that the conferring of baptisme doth not alter the condition of the person as to his bondage or freedome; that diverse masters, freed from this doubt, may more carefully endeavor the propagation of christianity by permitting children, though slaves, or those of greater growth, if capable, to be admitted to that sacrament.
No race is without guilt. The reason why the black slave trade is so relevant today is because it's only been about 100-200 years since it was abolished so it is still pretty fresh. Maybe in a couple hundred years it won't be as relevant. Honestly we need to be more concerned with the gap between rich and poor is far too big.
I'm glad young people are exposed to Thomas Sowell. I consider him a hero... I'm not sure the guy here understands all that Sowell is talking about nor does he accept the parts he does understand. The young lady accepts the message and attempts to explain in a language younger people would understand
Ask who's pushing a certain narrative, follow money and control. For most people, staying dumb is a choice they've made. It's crazy how long the powers that be have got away with it and continue to.
82% of the U.S. black population immigrated into the United States after the ending of slavery. The last U.S. census taken prior to the state of South Carolina's secession from the Union, shows 94.5% of whites in the state owned zero slaves. (This census is housed in the library of congress). There was a catch 22 for the confederate states in listing the institution of slavery as being the top cause for seceding, because it was considered a state Right, & therefor in order to make it constitutional for a state to leave the Union, the confederate states needed to legally show a state Right was being trampled upon not only by the federal government, but other northern states. It did not, nor does it justify slavery in any way, but it was a legal stance to make their withdrawal constitutional. Keep in mind it was southern states that took the first steps to end slavery, long before any northern state. Virginia, as well as Tennessee, were the first two states early in the 1800's that attempted the first ban. Thomas Jefferson introduced a number of bills to end slavery. Tennessee actually passed legislation to phase out slavery over a 20 year period. The Northern states came in & ended it with their import tariffs on southern goods. As the north needed the money from the southern textile to help fund their industrial revolution. But winners of wars get to decide the history of wars, & reality or revision, of speaking for themselves, and for others, while the losers are painted as being the bad guys.
It’s part of the human history like most stuff is there’s very rarely things this big that come Down to one ethnicity or one group at all we all dabbled back in the day doing some fucked up shit but that helped us learn today to not recreate those times which we seem to be doing
What you now need to ask is *who* wants you to hold a grudge against the descendants of one particular group of people, who happen to have been the ones who formalized the end of slavery, and *why?* Who experienced the greatest loss from the end of global slave trades?
I love this ❤ maybe we can finally all embrace each other regardless of skin colors in this incredible American experiment. Daniel Tosh has a great bit about America is the only country that has any real diversity. Look at the Olympics teams. Almost every other country have teams exclusively one race. Just check out the Chinese teams. They always have and always will be Chinese only teams. I'm not saying erase the past, but we all have to learn the same history or none of us will be standing on similar foundations. The past was f-ed up but if anything was changed, none of us would be where we are right now, for better or worse. If we dont know the past we are doomed to repeat it. Nothing gives me hope for the future like seeing 2 smart, young people taking time to check out the past.
I have a couple of slaves in my lineage back in the 14th century (and also an 8th born daughter princess and a baron) and my husband can trace one branch of his family tree back to a concubine of August Caesar, so basically a sex slave. We are both completely white. Does any of it affect us? No. We pulled ourselves up by our bootstraps, put ourselves through school and worked hard to get where we are today. There was no poor me. It was just nose to the grindstone until we had a fairly comfy life. At least until the last three years hit. Now it is more like a barely comfy life.
Youre channel is awesome and so is Candace Owens. You should react to her testifying in front of Congress . They were trying to gaslight everyone about Candace Owens because her 5 minutes were up but a Congressman gave her his time.
@2:30 "I never thought about who ended slavery. I didn't know Britain was the first to do that." Technically, it wasn't. It's the first country THAT STILL EXISTS TODAY, to abolish slavery. Follow along here, if you read the Treaty of Paris (1783) which ended the American Revolutionary war, Britain released each of the 13 former colonies as a separate and independent country. So the thirteen colonies, are now each 13 separate countries. They ratified the US Constitution in 1789, forming the United States of America. By that time, eight of the thirteen had abolished slavery- and those eight, never re-instituted it. Haiti also had a slave revolt around that time, and abolished chattel slavery... but then instituted serfdom, which is a form of slavery.
In American history there was more than just black slaves. I believe the Irish were the first slaves in America. There was also a lot of Chinese slaves. The first black slave owner in America was black. Was slavery a horrible thing in our country - absolutely! But it wasn’t just a black thing yet as horrible as it was it also gave our country a very diverse population and variety of cultures mixed together and I love all our people. Our nation is truly a melting pot of great cultures from around the world and it is and will always be what makes us the greatest nation in the world.
My question has always been, who pays me and who do i pay? My white family owned my black family until in the 1830s those two groups became simply "family" then over the next century family added American Indians, more white and black people, then in 1934 another side of the family came LEGALLY from Mexico, and added more white and black folks to their mix.. So who do i pay? Who pays me? History is way more complex than skin tone.
Look at how many African slaves were brought to Central and South America and the Bahamas. "Estimations and Distribution: Total Numbers: Estimates suggest that about 12.5 million Africans were shipped across the Atlantic, with approximately 10.7 million surviving the journey. Central and South America: The vast majority of these individuals were brought to Portuguese and Spanish colonies in South America. Brazil alone received about 4.9 million enslaved Africans, making it the single largest destination in the Americas. The Caribbean: The Caribbean islands, including the Bahamas, also saw a large influx, receiving around 4 million Africans. Specific to the Bahamas, the numbers were considerably smaller given its size and economic structure at the time but still significant in the context of the local population."
To be clear, not using that to say "the US was better" (though, empirically, that can be argued) but to show that while people love to fixate on the number of African slaves in the US, and how important the institution of slavery was in the US... it was MUCH more important south of the United States. And do you know why so many more were transported to Central and South America and the Bahamas? Because they literally did not give a shit about their slaves and they would die so regularly because of the terrible conditions, they were forced to import more. While being a slave in the US wasn't "fun" or "nice", you had a much higher probability of survival than if you were shipped to Central, South America or the Bahamas.
I dunno what it is.. yet, you both are so darn cute together.. never stop loving and growing together.. Your journey together is helping others grow too.. In ways you may never know. Forehead kisses… now get back to work.! 🙏💞💞💪:.😁. Jc
Here's an interesting challenge: do some searches about the history of slavery on your favorite search engine. Do the majority of the results talk only about slavery in the USA? Do the majority of the results lean left or right? I suspect what you will find is that very, very few show the totality of slavery in the world and even how that translated to slaves being sold to the traders to come to the USA.
Unfortunately anger is at an extreme level these days, human history is filled with horror. In the States the suppression of the story has added fuel to the fire. Trying to push patriotism and trying to clean up the story & especially with suppressing of advancement by racism the anger boiled. We have to all know the past and all it ugliness as well as achievements to grow healthy. After Apartheid ended, they held Truth and Reconciliation Trials . All the the horror was outed ,it aloud the country to begin to move on .
In my point of view..everyone has been a slave and or owner regardless of what their color or race etc etc was. Jesuits and Venetians. You own the trade route you own the people
There are more black slaves today than there were during the Atlantic Slave Trade. It's crazy to me that people cry about their ancestors being slaves and ignore the fact that people are ACTUALLY suffering right now (as you read this).
Slavery is a HUMAN problem. As long as there have been humans, the strong have enslaved the weak. And people will say indentured servitude was not the same because you could theoretically earn your way out. True, IN THEORY. but the reality was often a lifetime of servitude because you were SUPPOSED to work for 7 years to pay for your passage to America. At the end of that time, your "owner" would say "you've paid for your passage, but I fed, clothed, and housed you for 7 years. You owe for that" ...people died in servitude, never able to work their way out because WHERE could they go to complain, to appeal? They came over from Europe, the deal was made THERE. Slavery has come under so many different names
My ancestry is British. My ancestors were enslaved by Rome for 400+ years. I'm still waiting for my Maserati to be delivered. Probably not going to happen.
Now I see why my comment got deleted. I did not see in the description that this history was provided by Candace Owens. If you don't toe the line your comment will get deleted.
@24studios61 they all white people just from a different part of Europe ...i'm just say the white race started it so of course they would end it when it wasn't beneficial for them anymore
@24studios61 they all white people just from a different part of Europe....all I'm saying is that white people Europeans started the atlantic slave trade...and of course they would end it when it wasn't beneficial for them anymore
@24studios61 this video tryna make it seem like the white Europeans did Black Africans a favor a white man ends slavery... but start systematic racism and oppression....great
The arabian slave tarde was far worse and was going on years before and after it ended. The isalmic world still does slavery today yet its the country that ended it that receives the most criticism.
First one to abolish slavery was Republic of Ragusa today know as Dubrovnik located in Croatia. Yes it was a small republic but a pretty strong one for its size. So no British people where not the first this is wrong.
it seems like the guy is only doing this video because his girl told him too. He is sneak dissin the entire time. My advice to homegirl is this. Find someone that is constantly challenging his perspective. Men/Women with that ability are the only truly intelligent people.
president of Uganda, told an audience including Bill Clinton: "African chiefs were the ones waging war on each other and capturing their own people and selling them. If anyone should apologise it should be the African chiefs. We still have those traitors here even today." However African modern Chiefs. "In my experience it's mainly the African diaspora who want an apology. People aren't milling around Lagos or Accra moaning about why chiefs don't apologise. They are more concerned about the everyday and why they still have bad governance." You should also UA-cam or google modern slavery in Libya, "Sub Saharan Slaves are often ransomed to their families and until ransom can be paid are tortured, forced to work, sometimes to death and eventually executed or left to starve if they can't pay for too long. Women are often raped and used as sex slaves and sold to brothels and private Libyan clients."
My father was sold to a farmer in Oregon when he was 9 years old; my Grandmother, his mom, sold him... they arre white. Some will call it "indentured servant," my dad called it slavery. He had to sleep in the loft of the barn; he was not allowed in the house. He was beat daily. My grandfather found out about it 5 months later, (he thought my dad had run away from home). He went and got my dad back... Somehow, my dad forgave his mom, and many times helped his mom and dad when they didn't t have money or was losing their home. I get frustrated when I hear all the crap about reparations, institutionalized racism and all the other race baiting stuff being said; it is brainwashing by the deep-state and media. My Dad ended up becoming very successful with his own business and took very good care of my mom. So, there is not anyone keeping anyone "down," it is all about the perspective that an individual chooses to perceive.
Welcome to the rabbit holes of truth! Wait tillya find out about the Barbary pirates,white(Irish) slaves, and native American tribes with black skin! Oh and let's not overlook the giants...🧐👍
Im into genetic genealogy, so i get to see history differently than textbooks. I also know most Black Folks dont give a rats patooey about who their ancestors were. I know because research requires cooperation, and most of the time it isnt there. The 1619 Project appears to be totally erroneous. The first slave is said to be John Punch, who, as an indentured servant, ran off with white indentured servant and was sentenced to a life in servitude in 1642 NOT 1619. Blacks, Indians and Indentured servants were treated the same. Back then CLASS counted for far more than RACE.
Its a guilty pleasure of mine to watch black UA-cam channels see whats really going on and not just blindly follow the Democrat talking points that arent true, good on both of you!
Please go and read some literature on the topic. "How Europe Underdeveloped Africa" and other books on the topic. This is an outrageous case of revisionist history. A very misleading video, and it should be criminal(Candace Owen's video). I feel for a lot of our young people with this misinformation. Please read some books if you want to learn. The last video I saw is with Thomas Sowell, he is also a very misleading individual. Please learn the facts and you will see these individuals for what they are.
Italians were hung and lynched also. Catholics were fed to the lions . We all had it bad back in the day but as horrible as it was we have to be thankful for the sacrifice they made so we can be where we are today. Nobody alive today is to blame for it .
We were colonized and slaved by the Spaniards. We have managed to moved on. I have no problem visiting Spain or them visiting us. After all the ppls that colonized us are, have been dead. I understand that it was how things were, as mess up as it was.
This is a very childish and simple explanation for the history of slavery. She missed a lot of important details. For example, Britain outlawed slavery IN Britain 500 years prior to 1833. The slavery abolition act was aw Britons attempt to outlaw slavery WORLDWIDE.
It's funny he doesn't realize there were black men and women that owned slaves in America and I want to say that Louisianna was the state with most slave owners who were black. Also there were black people that were property owners including some owning slaves that could vote and white people who didn't own land or slaves that couldn't...I'm glad to see these two doing their own research to get more onfo...History is to so great you can only touch on certain key points in school.
I think the main point she is trying to make is that the powers at be will not stop talking about what makes us different and widening the divide between races and cultures because when "you" and "me" becomes "us" *they* are screwed. Pray to God we get there fast.
The first slaves in the Americas were Irish. The first chattel slave owner was black in the colonies. As she said, history is complicated and no one of any race is without guilt. Time to move forward instead of keep looking back.
No the first slaves in American were American Indians captured by other American Indian tribes. Why do we forget about the history of America before the white man?
The first country to outlaw slavery was Mexico and they are not white look it up
Irish slaves where fighting for the Union in the Civil War. They would take illiterate people coming off the ships. Tell them make your mark here and you will have a job and pay, feed you and clothe you. They didn't know they where signing up to join the army and go fight and die. If they ran away the sentence was death.
I believed he meant to say brought over, but thats a good point you brought up @@davidtullis2810
Lol who told you the first “slaves in America” was the Irish? Can you give us proof
Blacks, we're not the only slaves in America. Thomas Sowell talks about this. I would say continue checking him out.
Blacks the only people who still get treated wrong by white racism to this day not Irish
Omar Sowell work should be mandatory reading in high schools across the country!

Oh wow. Taught us something new.
It's arguably still going on in the Middle East. Apple threatened Meta to remove its products from their app store in 2021, because of rampant "slave for sale" posts on their platforms (Instagram and Facebook), mostly originating in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait.

Brazil had 5 million.
I wasn't there but I think these numbers are pretty close. Yhere was black slave owners in the USA.

Typical American! Distorting the Truth to make the US look like Saviours! Sorry I forgot, the US won world war 2 as well!
In 1804, the Royal Navy was a little bit busy with the French and Spanish navies (heard of Napoleon?), a war that didn't finally end until 1815. Also, please note that the British taxpayers finally finished paying off the cost of abolition in 2015.
There was never slavery as such in India as there was never a shortage of cheap labour. If you mean the menial work was done by low caste Hindus then India is still struggling to suppress that but it is not the same as slavery.

Rot in the prison and having to feed them. for the government of England it was easier to sell them or sell their debt rather.
Actually, the fighting in Tripoli had to do with piracy, not slavery.
Those in power use many tactics to keep the people divided. Race has been the biggest one lately, but other things too. The one thing they dont like is a well informed population that comes together and looks for similarities rather than differences.
Yeah they just want to artificially create as many dichotomies as possible in order to generate more daily tax dollars. The absolute last thing they want is peace & harmony, though they of course pretend the opposite. The cartels have a firm grip as well, creating the gun/gang culture to facilitate their pipeline.
yep, its always about power and class. Race is just an easy marker, but genetically, apparently the difference is a mere 0.6%. We have so much more in common than differences
I’m glad others see this race gender anything they can cause an argument over they’ll use it’s fucked up
The mental slavery of modern media keeps most people in a prison without walls that people cannot see.
Thomas Sowell has several videos about slavery and how the British Navy ended it. Stuff you cant learn in school.
Sir Richard is in the house
Good to see you again
Either these videos are a magnet for us or we are strangely destined to appear on the same channels😉
Slavery also has different names. My great grandparents were indentured servants; my G'ma was born into it.
Not long after my grandmother's birth, my great-grandfather's contract was sold to a wealthy european and he was shipped away, never to be seen again. When my great-grandmother's contract was fulfilled, she was thrown off the property and not allowed to return to see my grandmother. She was also never seen again.
My grandmother ran away at 16 because she'd tired of being raped since she was 10. I am white and so are my ancestors.
Can anyone please tell me how this is any different than that of slavery, be it whatever you call it?
It's no different than slavery at all. I was able to trace part of my family history to Jamestown... where my first relative in the colonies was an indentured servant that came over on a ship.... she ran away with an "unnamed native" that was also an indentured servant. The other part of my family history is lost to war, famine, persecution. (Irish, Ukranian).... and no record can be found of them. They worked in mills as children, were treated horrendously. Humans have done heinous things to each other throughout history.
Regarding the selling of black slaves by black people, it is important to consider that one of the main misconceptions is that "black Africans" were a thing... Sub-Saharan Africa was a melting pot of hundreds, if not thousands, of different tribes, often at war with each other. They didn't have a common " black" identity. They identified as a member of their particular tribe and the rest where the others. To be conquered, or feared, or avoided... Or enslaved.
Slavery in England has actually been illegal since 1066 when the king said "as soon as a man's feet touch English soil he's a free man" (or something very close) but it wasn't until Englishman Granville Sharp decided America shouldn't have slaves that we put our navy on the case .
Damn these are tough topics and history will always end up more complex than you'd initially thought.
She's spot on, he still wants to hold on to that victim card.
Logical, flawlessly logical. 🖖😎👍
AMAAAZINGGGGG GUYS HUH? 😊BUT YOU'D NEVER HEAR ABOUT THE REAL TRUTH UNTIL YOU DISCOVER IT! 👍 WAY TO GO BIG AND SLIHM, KEEP ON LEARNING! 💯
I love how calm your videos are.
I'm glad you guys took the time to learn more, with an open mind. And btw I'm pretty sure there WERE black slave owners in the southern US as well. Just as there were black people fighting on both sides of the Civil War
She makes him so uncomfortable. It’s like he is walking in a mine field or up on a tight rope. Meanwhile she just glows.
Reparations are hilarious, lazy bone idle people wanting payment for something that didn't happen to them, or anyone they know, from people that didn't do anything to them!
It's like treating their race as a disability, and reparations are effectively the welfare checks for it.
Yalls souls compliment eachother and Im all for it!
One thing Candice Owen didn't say in this video is that about 1/3 of the owners of African slaves in the Americas were black. That's something repairationists never talk about.
I can see it in his eyes that the man in this reaction wants to be the victim of something that never happened to him. I have a lot more that I could say here about that. But I'll just leave it with one word, pathetic.
Someone led me to look into the Moors that went into Spain. No matter who the people they all were cut from the same stone.
Look at Spain and the architecture, I think it brings a lot to the topic that got us to what we're normally focused on.
I love your videos and thank you for this lesson. And I'm hoping you guys can maybe react to the rap artist DAX. I love his music and I would love to see you guys react to his music.
Great video. I love history.
Since you liked Thomas Sowell so much (as well as me) he has a video exactly about this topic and how it was never about race. At least not at first.
She is amazing and brave💯🙌
Hope your man will keep up with you🙏
God bless the both of you💯🙏
I think the real truth of this video is that slavery happened. But in no way does it define who you are today.
Unfortunately she is right the United States does seem to be the only country for the most part that dwells on its slavery past. Like Samuel L Jackson said when asked how to stop racism he answered stop talking about it. Perhaps it's time we stop talking about slavery and move on. Nobody that has ancestors that were slaves are any worse or better than I am, we all are "We the People"
Sorry it wasn't Sam Jackson that said that, it was Morgan Freeman 😅
Your girl is speaking facts. Seems like he wants to keep his mentality.
It's difficult to escape the Democrat plantation because it lives in the mind. It pervades through your education, your friends, your family. Some people need a little time, once heard it can never be unheard, he'll start noticing truths in his daily life.
I forgot to mention, in the 1600s White Indentured Servants had a slight edge because they were Christian, Aficans and Indians were not.
The 1669 Virginia law on the baptism of slaves - This law stipulated that baptism did not alter the legal status of a slave.
Heres the law:
"An act declaring that baptisme of slaves doth not exempt them from bondage" (1667)
WHEREAS some doubts have risen whether children that are slaves by birth, and by the charity and piety of their owners made pertakers of the blessed sacrament of baptisme, should be vertue of their baptisme be made free; It is enacted and declared by this grand assembly, and the authority thereof, that the conferring of baptisme doth not alter the condition of the person as to his bondage or freedome; that diverse masters, freed from this doubt, may more carefully
endeavor the propagation of christianity by permitting children, though slaves, or those of greater growth, if capable, to be admitted to that sacrament.
No race is without guilt. The reason why the black slave trade is so relevant today is because it's only been about 100-200 years since it was abolished so it is still pretty fresh. Maybe in a couple hundred years it won't be as relevant. Honestly we need to be more concerned with the gap between rich and poor is far too big.
The African race didn't inslave them selfs & steal from them self & destroy there own history the European nations did and still do today
I'm glad young people are exposed to Thomas Sowell. I consider him a hero...
I'm not sure the guy here understands all that Sowell is talking about nor does he accept the parts he does understand. The young lady accepts the message and attempts to explain in a language younger people would understand
No such thing as ‘truthism’. Finding good (correct) information vs. opinions. Is where truth exists. Peace out ✌️ big fan of your work
Ask who's pushing a certain narrative, follow money and control.
For most people, staying dumb is a choice they've made. It's crazy how long the powers that be have got away with it and continue to.
Censorship is mind control.
Subbed. Coz y’all like to learn 😎✌️
*how does anyone not know this* !?!
82% of the U.S. black population immigrated into the United States after the ending of slavery.
The last U.S. census taken prior to the state of South Carolina's secession from the Union, shows
94.5% of whites in the state owned zero slaves. (This census is housed in the library of congress).
There was a catch 22 for the confederate states in listing the institution of slavery as being
the top cause for seceding, because it was considered a state Right, & therefor in order to make
it constitutional for a state to leave the Union, the confederate states needed to legally show
a state Right was being trampled upon not only by the federal government, but other northern states.
It did not, nor does it justify slavery in any way, but it was a legal stance to make their withdrawal
constitutional.
Keep in mind it was southern states that took the first steps to end slavery, long before any northern state.
Virginia, as well as Tennessee, were the first two states early in the 1800's that attempted the first ban.
Thomas Jefferson introduced a number of bills to end slavery.
Tennessee actually passed legislation to phase out slavery over a 20 year period.
The Northern states came in & ended it with their import tariffs on southern goods.
As the north needed the money from the southern textile to help fund their industrial revolution.
But winners of wars get to decide the history of wars, & reality or revision, of speaking for themselves,
and for others, while the losers are painted as being the bad guys.
You should react to the british crusade against slavery
It’s part of the human history like most stuff is there’s very rarely things this big that come
Down to one ethnicity or one group at all we all dabbled back in the day doing some fucked up shit but that helped us learn today to not recreate those times which we seem to be doing
To my knowledge, Korea had the longest-running slave trade at 1500 years total.
360,222 Union soldiers gave their lives to help end slavery
What you now need to ask is *who* wants you to hold a grudge against the descendants of one particular group of people, who happen to have been the ones who formalized the end of slavery, and *why?* Who experienced the greatest loss from the end of global slave trades?
I love this ❤ maybe we can finally all embrace each other regardless of skin colors in this incredible American experiment. Daniel Tosh has a great bit about America is the only country that has any real diversity. Look at the Olympics teams. Almost every other country have teams exclusively one race. Just check out the Chinese teams. They always have and always will be Chinese only teams. I'm not saying erase the past, but we all have to learn the same history or none of us will be standing on similar foundations. The past was f-ed up but if anything was changed, none of us would be where we are right now, for better or worse. If we dont know the past we are doomed to repeat it. Nothing gives me hope for the future like seeing 2 smart, young people taking time to check out the past.
I have a couple of slaves in my lineage back in the 14th century (and also an 8th born daughter princess and a baron) and my husband can trace one branch of his family tree back to a concubine of August Caesar, so basically a sex slave. We are both completely white. Does any of it affect us? No. We pulled ourselves up by our bootstraps, put ourselves through school and worked hard to get where we are today. There was no poor me. It was just nose to the grindstone until we had a fairly comfy life. At least until the last three years hit. Now it is more like a barely comfy life.
The school you go to matters.
Youre channel is awesome and so is Candace Owens. You should react to her testifying in front of Congress . They were trying to gaslight everyone about Candace Owens because her 5 minutes were up but a Congressman gave her his time.
If slaves are available for purchase, folks tend to get slaves.
@2:30 "I never thought about who ended slavery. I didn't know Britain was the first to do that."
Technically, it wasn't. It's the first country THAT STILL EXISTS TODAY, to abolish slavery.
Follow along here, if you read the Treaty of Paris (1783) which ended the American Revolutionary war, Britain released each of the 13 former colonies as a separate and independent country. So the thirteen colonies, are now each 13 separate countries. They ratified the US Constitution in 1789, forming the United States of America. By that time, eight of the thirteen had abolished slavery- and those eight, never re-instituted it.
Haiti also had a slave revolt around that time, and abolished chattel slavery... but then instituted serfdom, which is a form of slavery.
I always thought it was weird how Black people say they are kings and Queens. However big and slim actually look the part 😂 .
Columbus wrote journal entries about how the natives would make great slaves
In American history there was more than just black slaves. I believe the Irish were the first slaves in America. There was also a lot of Chinese slaves. The first black slave owner in America was black. Was slavery a horrible thing in our country - absolutely! But it wasn’t just a black thing yet as horrible as it was it also gave our country a very diverse population and variety of cultures mixed together and I love all our people. Our nation is truly a melting pot of great cultures from around the world and it is and will always be what makes us the greatest nation in the world.
My question has always been, who pays me and who do i pay? My white family owned my black family until in the 1830s those two groups became simply "family" then over the next century family added American Indians, more white and black people, then in 1934 another side of the family came LEGALLY from Mexico, and added more white and black folks to their mix.. So who do i pay? Who pays me? History is way more complex than skin tone.
Europeans among the different tribes enslaved each other for centuries.
NO country on this little blue dot we call home is blameless. No flag is pure this planet is dripping in blood.
Look at how many African slaves were brought to Central and South America and the Bahamas.
"Estimations and Distribution:
Total Numbers: Estimates suggest that about 12.5 million Africans were shipped across the Atlantic, with approximately 10.7 million surviving the journey.
Central and South America: The vast majority of these individuals were brought to Portuguese and Spanish colonies in South America. Brazil alone received about 4.9 million enslaved Africans, making it the single largest destination in the Americas.
The Caribbean: The Caribbean islands, including the Bahamas, also saw a large influx, receiving around 4 million Africans. Specific to the Bahamas, the numbers were considerably smaller given its size and economic structure at the time but still significant in the context of the local population."
To be clear, not using that to say "the US was better" (though, empirically, that can be argued) but to show that while people love to fixate on the number of African slaves in the US, and how important the institution of slavery was in the US... it was MUCH more important south of the United States.
And do you know why so many more were transported to Central and South America and the Bahamas? Because they literally did not give a shit about their slaves and they would die so regularly because of the terrible conditions, they were forced to import more. While being a slave in the US wasn't "fun" or "nice", you had a much higher probability of survival than if you were shipped to Central, South America or the Bahamas.
I dunno what it is.. yet, you both are so darn cute together.. never stop loving and growing together..
Your journey together is helping others grow too.. In ways you may never know. Forehead kisses… now get back to work.!
🙏💞💞💪:.😁. Jc
Yall Beautiful all the way around ❤
Please give your reaction to Japanese boy group Number_i GOAT. please. The song is crazy and the music video is amazing.
Here's an interesting challenge: do some searches about the history of slavery on your favorite search engine. Do the majority of the results talk only about slavery in the USA? Do the majority of the results lean left or right? I suspect what you will find is that very, very few show the totality of slavery in the world and even how that translated to slaves being sold to the traders to come to the USA.
Beautiful couple love from Ireland
Keep checking out Thomas Sowell. Candance gets a lot of her sources through him.
Unfortunately anger is at an extreme level these days, human history is filled with horror. In the States the suppression of the story has added fuel to the fire. Trying to push patriotism and trying to clean up the story & especially with suppressing of advancement by racism the anger boiled. We have to all know the past and all it ugliness as well as achievements to grow healthy. After Apartheid ended, they held Truth and Reconciliation Trials . All the the horror was outed ,it aloud the country to begin to move on .
SURPRISE.
Everyone went through it , it’s just not everyone lives in the past and thinks about it . Great reaction you two sending love x
In my point of view..everyone has been a slave and or owner regardless of what their color or race etc etc was. Jesuits and Venetians. You own the trade route you own the people
There are more black slaves today than there were during the Atlantic Slave Trade. It's crazy to me that people cry about their ancestors being slaves and ignore the fact that people are ACTUALLY suffering right now (as you read this).
Slavery is a HUMAN problem. As long as there have been humans, the strong have enslaved the weak. And people will say indentured servitude was not the same because you could theoretically earn your way out. True, IN THEORY. but the reality was often a lifetime of servitude because you were SUPPOSED to work for 7 years to pay for your passage to America. At the end of that time, your "owner" would say "you've paid for your passage, but I fed, clothed, and housed you for 7 years. You owe for that" ...people died in servitude, never able to work their way out because WHERE could they go to complain, to appeal? They came over from Europe, the deal was made THERE. Slavery has come under so many different names
My ancestry is British. My ancestors were enslaved by Rome for 400+ years. I'm still waiting for my Maserati to be delivered. Probably not going to happen.
We only pay reperations in the currency of the day the harm was done to you. Three turnips on their way to you.
Now I see why my comment got deleted. I did not see in the description that this history was provided by Candace Owens. If you don't toe the line your comment will get deleted.
All great the same people that started it ended it....there just good people...they try to praise them like who else was gone stop what they started
The Portuguese started it, read some history
@24studios61 they all white people just from a different part of Europe ...i'm just say the white race started it so of course they would end it when it wasn't beneficial for them anymore
@24studios61 they all white people just from a different part of Europe....all I'm saying is that white people Europeans started the atlantic slave trade...and of course they would end it when it wasn't beneficial for them anymore
@24studios61 this video tryna make it seem like the white Europeans did Black Africans a favor a white man ends slavery... but start systematic racism and oppression....great
Goodness, this woman is sweet as grape soda. ❤
After the Civil War, slavery continued for some American blacks. Some Indian reservations inside America continued slavery. Look it up!
The arabian slave tarde was far worse and was going on years before and after it ended. The isalmic world still does slavery today yet its the country that ended it that receives the most criticism.
First one to abolish slavery was Republic of Ragusa today know as Dubrovnik located in Croatia. Yes it was a small republic but a pretty strong one for its size. So no British people where not the first this is wrong.
it seems like the guy is only doing this video because his girl told him too. He is sneak dissin the entire time. My advice to homegirl is this. Find someone that is constantly challenging his perspective. Men/Women with that ability are the only truly intelligent people.
president of Uganda, told an audience including Bill Clinton: "African chiefs were the ones waging war on each other and capturing their own people and selling them. If anyone should apologise it should be the African chiefs. We still have those traitors here even today." However African modern Chiefs. "In my experience it's mainly the African diaspora who want an apology. People aren't milling around Lagos or Accra moaning about why chiefs don't apologise. They are more concerned about the everyday and why they still have bad governance."
You should also UA-cam or google modern slavery in Libya, "Sub Saharan Slaves are often ransomed to their families and until ransom can be paid are tortured, forced to work, sometimes to death and eventually executed or left to starve if they can't pay for too long. Women are often raped and used as sex slaves and sold to brothels and private Libyan clients."
Check out Thomas Sowell
Slavery still exists its jist changed form now its not jist certain groups its every1
As a Canadian, your 13th Amendment makes me REALLY uncomfortable...
To write a law that says "No more slavery" AND THEN include "except for..."
I Denmark we had white slaves. Actually every one poor before 1800 was a slave here.
I must say ma'am, you are stunning😍
There were also, black slave owners and white slaves... there's a lot more to the slave stories.
The race baiters keep bringing up slavery to keep you down
Any1 workin 4 minimum wage any1 on sa is a slave
Hi, check, please Falling in Reverse: The Drug in me is Reimagined ❤ you gonna love this
My father was sold to a farmer in Oregon when he was 9 years old; my Grandmother, his mom, sold him... they arre white.
Some will call it "indentured servant," my dad called it slavery. He had to sleep in the loft of the barn; he was not allowed in the house. He was beat daily. My grandfather found out about it 5 months later, (he thought my dad had run away from home). He went and got my dad back...
Somehow, my dad forgave his mom, and many times helped his mom and dad when they didn't t have money or was losing their home.
I get frustrated when I hear all the crap about reparations, institutionalized racism and all the other race baiting stuff being said; it is brainwashing by the deep-state and media.
My Dad ended up becoming very successful with his own business and took very good care of my mom.
So, there is not anyone keeping anyone "down," it is all about the perspective that an individual chooses to perceive.
For me, as slavic man, it is almost funny listening about slavery in US. You have no idea...
A lot of Irish died in Revelation years just coming here for food
Hey🙌
Lets do this 🍿

I'll be back for more🤓
Rule Brittania
Welcome to the rabbit holes of truth! Wait tillya find out about the Barbary pirates,white(Irish) slaves, and native American tribes with black skin! Oh and let's not overlook the giants...🧐👍
Im into genetic genealogy, so i get to see history differently than textbooks. I also know most Black Folks dont give a rats patooey about who their ancestors were. I know because research requires cooperation, and most of the time it isnt there.
The 1619 Project appears to be totally erroneous. The first slave is said to be John Punch, who, as an indentured servant, ran off with white indentured servant and was sentenced to a life in servitude in 1642 NOT 1619.
Blacks, Indians and Indentured servants were treated the same. Back then CLASS counted for far more than RACE.
Its a guilty pleasure of mine to watch black UA-cam channels see whats really going on and not just blindly follow the Democrat talking points that arent true, good on both of you!
Please go and read some literature on the topic. "How Europe Underdeveloped Africa" and other books on the topic. This is an outrageous case of revisionist history. A very misleading video, and it should be criminal(Candace Owen's video). I feel for a lot of our young people with this misinformation.
Please read some books if you want to learn. The last video I saw is with Thomas Sowell, he is also a very misleading individual. Please learn the facts and you will see these individuals for what they are.
I’d suggest you start reading some more informative books instead of books promoting an agenda.
Italians were hung and lynched also. Catholics were fed to the lions . We all had it bad back in the day but as horrible as it was we have to be thankful for the sacrifice they made so we can be where we are today. Nobody alive today is to blame for it .
We were colonized and slaved by the Spaniards. We have managed to moved on. I have no problem visiting Spain or them visiting us. After all the ppls that colonized us are, have been dead.
I understand that it was how things were, as mess up as it was.
This is a very childish and simple explanation for the history of slavery. She missed a lot of important details. For example, Britain outlawed slavery IN Britain 500 years prior to 1833. The slavery abolition act was aw Britons attempt to outlaw slavery WORLDWIDE.
It's funny he doesn't realize there were black men and women that owned slaves in America and I want to say that Louisianna was the state with most slave owners who were black. Also there were black people that were property owners including some owning slaves that could vote and white people who didn't own land or slaves that couldn't...I'm glad to see these two doing their own research to get more onfo...History is to so great you can only touch on certain key points in school.
Candace owens is sick,
Exactly!
With what illness?
You don’t like the truth. It’s hard for some people. I will pray for your deliverance from evil.
