The sad thing about slavery was that the slave had no hope for a better future. The slave was the “property” of the white man who could do what he wanted with him/her. Slavery was an evil institution that was quickly spreading toward the west. Lincoln had the foresight to see this. Sadly, it took the death of thousands of soldiers to stop it.
Many Different Things so crazy how other white men needed the help. So devilish and lazy... sell crops is bullshit. Morally fucked up, I don’t care about how technology was created by us black folks under the white mans name. The whole United States is a forgery institutionalized area in the world that will forever be.
Slavery wasn't spreading, even then it was declining, it is always the mark of an economically stagnant society. The North won because it relied on technology, not slavery. Today, West Africa remains the centre of slavery in the world, as it has since the 9th century, it remains backward and poor.
Slaves sometimes bought their way out of slavery by deeds or cash or barter. Not every slave stayed a slave. Some even owned slaves after obtaining freedom
Actually Lincoln was not for stopping slavery. He was for stopping the spread of slavery to the west. The North did not fight to free slaves. In President Lincoln's 1st Inaugural address he said "I have no purpose, directly or indirectly, to interfere with the institution of slavery in the States where it exists. I believe I have no lawful right to do so, and I have no inclination to do so." The North fought only to preserve the Union not to free slaves. Slavery did not end until the passage of the 13th amendment. Hope this helps.
One of my great, great grandfathers was in bondage somewhere in that area. So far, nobody has a photo of him. Makes my mind wonder if he could be in some old photos like this unnamed 😖 But I still honor you, Papa Ellick 🙏🏾
Schools teach it too much. Slavery was in every single country. Schools only teach about American slavery. Even though slavery was invented by Africans.
My daughter is an AP US history teacher in the public schools down here. I can’t tell y’all how little there is taught about slavery. Remember watching “Roots” and trying to tell my daughter about when Brown v Board was being read, Thurgood Marshall couldn’t get a cab. AND HE WAS THE ONE WHO HAD ARGUED THE CASE IN FRONT OF THE SCOTUS. I don’t think that I made a dent until one of my daughters took a graduate course in Civil Rights. She came home breathing fire and brimstone.
Why should they? It's over in this country, has been since 1865 and isn't part of the family history of most Americans. Mention it? Okay. But spend huge amounts of time dwelling on it? That's ridiculous.

I have family lots of them new berry south Carolina i never been there was going to go before this virus started my father family there an i wanted to go see my grandmother grave an grandpa
This comment may go nowhere but my "people" were from SC also. I have tons of info from my older family people that show people giving slaves as gifts when someone gets married. Given by a first name only. 1 book I have was made from people going to libraries, congress buildings, family history before ancestory.com/internet was ever thought of. I am old. When I was young, I had a uncle drop me off at a black family's house, tenants? (in a row of a dozen little white houses) while he went to make a deal on a catfish farm. The black people offered me water, snacks and talked 100% about local and state government issues. West Columbia and a 50 mile radius.
@0:50 I believe the preacher is a black man. Typically, it was illegal for a black man to preach. There were some rare exceptions. Reverend John Jasper being one. He began his career in the early 1840s, preaching at funerals of slave and free black parishioners and giving occasional sermons at the First African Baptist Church, in richmond, VA. His popularity grew quickly and not only among Richmonders; after giving a guest sermon to the Third African Baptist Church in the nearby city of Petersburg, Jasper was invited by that congregation to preach every Sunday. Jasper’s accomplishments are even more remarkable given the fact that he was a slave in the tobacco factories and iron mills of Richmond during the first 25 years of his ministry work, and during a time when Virginia law expressly prohibited blacks from preaching. Following the Civil War, Jasper became a full-time pastor and in 1867 organized the Sixth Mount Zion Baptist Church in Richmond, ministering to hundreds of local black Baptists, but many whites as well. I suspect this image may be from the period at or around 1867 as it mentioned Mount Zion Church on Rockville Plantation.
You mentioned something rarely brought up. Free blacks. I don't know how many but I've read there were many free blacks. And General Stone wall Jackson taught Sunday school classes to black children.
In my family from Georgia, they literally took the Slaves to Church with them. I saw their names on the Church Membership Rolls. The Churches were not segregated in the Antebellum period

No! The "human traffickers" were the OTHER African tribes who attacked, captured, transported to market, held captive and then SOLD their African brothers and sisters to the White, primarily Portuguese, slave traders who took them to Europe and North and South America and sold them to ANYONE AND EVERYONE, NOT JUST SOUTHERN PLANTATION OWNERS! The bottom line is that the PC left conveniently forgets that it was black Africans SELLING black Africans into slavery in the first place! The weaker Africans were captured and sold by the stronger Africans. And they did it for centuries! And for money! Lots and lots of money! If you wanna educate people about slavery in America at least have the guts to tell the whole story!
At 2:43 you say they are supposed slaves. Well, they're very well dressed ! The FACT is that there were many more free blacks than has often been reported. Some if which owned slaves themselves. I sorry that I cannot provide a source presently.

????? What got on what boat? Black people were already here! Slavery was told to you in reverse! They took indigenous people of the America's and shipped them out!

@@Justque_88 Thank you, I thought I was the only here who knew this. The only issue is, people are so comfortable with the lie that it’s hard for them to believe the truth. The majority of us are not African. Even Africans know this. We are not the same people, some of us just look similar.
@@Justque_88 "Black people" were not here before, Indians certainly were, and some of them did get shipped out. The only religion that got spread was Christianity, that was not known by the "slaves" who were not white.
A great many of those SC slaves were "black native americans". The reciepts are there to be found in the census records and writings of the time. Yes we were here first but nobody is going to admit it much.
Don't understand how both Europeans and Africans both went to church, the Europeans must have justified their actions.If so that makes me wonder what else did they justify?
The African did as well, very large numbers of slaves sold into America were slavers caught by other tribes when they were raiding to catch others for slavery. West Africa was the biggest slave market in the world when Europeans first went there, it still is.

Wow! They lived better than most Americans are living today and although they were supposedly enslaved, look at the life they had on those plantations….much better lives than most Americans have today. They had access to horses they could ride and groom. They spent their days growing crops and tending to the fields……much better than working at Publix or McDonalds. They also had nice clothing and nice little houses they lived in. Try to buy one of those little houses today and it will cost you about $300,000. They had free food to eat. I wish someone would enslave under those same conditions plus give me a free place to live and teach me a trade. They also didn’t have to deal with disgusting customers or co workers. All they had to do was their job. I wish I could have a life like that.
William Ellison from Sumter South Carolina was a slave at one time, became a business man and owned about 70 slaves himself. Had a reserved front pew in the local church. So don't hate the players, hate the game
@Sherri Marenkovich bad decisions? That was their way of life back then. Bet you're reading this from the comfort of your air conditioned townhouse near the beach so no possible way you could relate to what was a bad decision. People tend to make it a black and white issue so I was just pointing out hidden facts nobody talks about. I'm pretty sure we wouldn't have liked their way of life back in bible days either so you need to stop thinking you know what people went through and stop trying to airbrush history. 2 wrongs? I've seen plenty of ugly parents that had beautiful children so your statement has no factual basis.
When I zeroed in on my ppl in the pics,I felt the depression and misery of their horrors. I didn't see any posing! This is what "they" want AGAIN! We hv 2 make sure it never ever happens!
Bro lets make sure you understand who "they" is. I felt depressed when I thought about how the North destroyed the infrastructure and only institutions slaves and the rest of the South had ever known. I felt depressed when the Union Army ransacked the entire South and took anything and everything, including shoes and clothing. How come all that slave labor made all that money in the South, yet the North was better developed, etc?
@@melanatedo.g6652 Absolutely! The bad part is that for history, where slaves were bought, sold, etc, all that documentation was kept. Part of the problem is the same people who burned that stuff at the end of the war, still won't admit the dirty little secret about NYC, LA, and most other big cities. Ok last thing man, we have to ask ourselves, did the North really want to ban the atlantic slave trade??? Or did they just want to fill the country in with "their immigrant slaves". Be safe man, we have to make sure the truth in history stays, the good, the bad and the ugly!

Wonderful pictures, wonderful exchange in the comment section.. I truly believe in "Freedom of Speech" and I truly believe Americans should comment freely,of course, respectfully...
“Black” people were already here because we are indigenous to this land. We were lied to about US history. We were enslaved on our own land. The majority of us are not African, some of us just look similar. Even Africans know this. In fact, some of us were taken from here and brought to other foreign lands.

History Debunked just posted about black slave owners in the South at this very time. How many of us knew there were many free blacks in the South then, and that some of them owned their own plantations and bred and sold slaves? One of the wealthiest slave holders in South Carolina was a black man, one among 171 others in the state. ua-cam.com/video/n14RB8Zvjyo/v-deo.html
I wonder if any of them are my relatives my grandfather was bought from west Africa to the West Indies and sold to the Johnson plantation in South Carolina my dad was 67 when I was born and that's how I has Grand parents who were slaves because of that I traced my lineage through African ancestry and my results came back Bissa tribe In Burkina faso one day I'll return and when I do my ancestors who dna within me we'll to.

They dont look like they're doing too bad. Ni e clean church to attend service, housing provided for free, leisure fishing time. Nothing really hasn't changed. Now it called HUD and foodstamps. Shit, you're welcome
1865 was the last year all blacks were gainfully employed members of US society and even then got free housing, medical care and food. Shit, you're welcome.
@HorizonGaming791 You are overlooking the fact that the majority of early immigrants to the American colonies were indentured servants, which is classified as a form of slavery, and those "servants" were white. They were frequently treated with brutality and many died before their contracts expired.

@@Justque_88 "Black people" were not here before, Indians certainly were, and some of them did get shipped out. The only religion that got spread was Christianity, that was not known by the "slaves" who were not white.
posing?
A great many of those SC slaves were "black native americans". The reciepts are there to be found in the census records and writings of the time. Yes we were here first but nobody is going to admit it much.
That last photo. Quite eerie. Bishopville’s not too far away frm me.
This was from the 1850/60s? I saw this yesterday.
And trump was the planter!
Don't understand how both Europeans and Africans both went to church, the Europeans must have justified their actions.If so that makes me wonder what else did they justify?
The African did as well, very large numbers of slaves sold into America were slavers caught by other tribes when they were raiding to catch others for slavery.
West Africa was the biggest slave market in the world when Europeans first went there, it still is.
@stk stk Thank you for sharing this information. Agree that so much truth has been hidden.
No words will sum up the emotions I feel about these pictures.
I didn’t even know they had cameras back than . Where the pictures cam from ?
Cameras go back to the 1840's.
The very first photograph was taken in 1836.
Great Videos 👍
Are these Negreanu posing or did someone just take a picture of them.
Dueteronomy 28:68
They are clearly not getting any damn work done.
Photography in those days used long exposure times. Movement wasn't captured very well. The results would've been ghost like people or blury blobs. In order for any of these people to have shown up on camera at all is they had to sit perfectly still. Sometimes for minutes at a time. Therefore they are in fact posing for the camera.
Must have been a pretty big Plantation, look at all the Cabins 😮
I live in Charleston,SC and this part of my hometown is something that makes me ashamed even though I had nothing to do with slavery..
It's a myth that whites kept slaves
Check their last names they owned the slaves but looked white as well
So you are ashamed a black king sold black people to the Portuguese that in turn sold them to a American 200 years before you were born,, dam
@Francisco Duran really ! 🤣
@@venomouslizardlover8459 Your anime pfp implies that your opinion doesn’t mean squat
Posing?!?!?!?!?! Slaves? No enslaved pepple.
Whoo chile i said the same thing smh
Enslaved people and slaves are synonyms. A slave is an enslaved person
I really don't understand why blacks are so upset about doing some manual labour in exchange for a better life than in africa, and to still be upset about it to this day.. really interesting race of "people"
@@thetrulytyson4935 Your freedom came from the decision of your ancestors to stay in the USA instead of returning to Africa. Countries in Western Africa didn't have freedom in the 1800s.
Kristin P. Do you really not see the hypocrisy and ignorance in that statement?
Seeing a whole lot of relaxin', and no slavin' in these photos.....
WTH
I think posing is the wrong word to use...
Oh here come the outrage police. Serious question do you have to make a conscious effort to look for something to complain about in every aspect of life or does it just come naturally to you
@@jaypoe5843 outrage??? I guess lol I literally was just correcting the word but yeah y'all have to make us all angry black women and don't say you didn't know I was black my name says it all have a great day

100% black employment
lol
Lmfao
My people still live in Rockville mere walking distance from where those pictures were taken......
All look so much more comfortable than a Scots crofter, an Irish bog hopper or a Russian serf of the same period. Yesterday’s gone.
This video wouldn’t be complete without some idiot trying to minimize slavery or what the slaves went through. 🙄
Why do
And much were comfortable. The slavery of the south was less cruel than that of the mills and railroads of the north
WOW. Thanks for sharing. #MrsDonna
I don't think they had a choice or hope. But, here we are
Me dói na alma 😢
Thank you for this great photos. More grease to your elbow. These slaves really suffered.
Wow! They lived better than most Americans are living today and although they were supposedly enslaved, look at the life they had on those plantations….much better lives than most Americans have today. They had access to horses they could ride and groom. They spent their days growing crops and tending to the fields……much better than working at Publix or McDonalds. They also had nice clothing and nice little houses they lived in. Try to buy one of those little houses today and it will cost you about $300,000. They had free food to eat. I wish someone would enslave under those same conditions plus give me a free place to live and teach me a trade. They also didn’t have to deal with disgusting customers or co workers. All they had to do was their job. I wish I could have a life like that.
Would you want the sodomy too? Evil u are and I pray God make u eat them words.
Do you not know what Posing means?
Posing? I’ve heard it all.
GetReal 4Real: All fake for the masses for the division.
Who was the slave owner William Ellison Jr. ?
I just watched a video about him
And what did you learn?
Probably Col. Joshua John Ward
The first record it slave owner was a Black man.
I would really like to slap the shit out of you.
William Ellison from Sumter South Carolina was a slave at one time, became a business man and owned about 70 slaves himself. Had a reserved front pew in the local church. So don't hate the players, hate the game
@Sherri Marenkovich bad decisions? That was their way of life back then. Bet you're reading this from the comfort of your air conditioned townhouse near the beach so no possible way you could relate to what was a bad decision. People tend to make it a black and white issue so I was just pointing out hidden facts nobody talks about. I'm pretty sure we wouldn't have liked their way of life back in bible days either so you need to stop thinking you know what people went through and stop trying to airbrush history.
2 wrongs? I've seen plenty of ugly parents that had beautiful children so your statement has no factual basis.
@@unstableminded I think the 'game' has been hated since Egyptian times. Care to join the 21st century.
But we can’t talk about that can we 🧐
For the record, the enslaved people in the portraits are also unidentified. JS
They were not posting at all I salute these Kings an Queens my great great great great grandparents my strong soldiers 🖤💚❤️💯
When I zeroed in on my ppl in the pics,I felt the depression and misery of their horrors.
I didn't see any posing!
This is what "they" want AGAIN!
We hv 2 make sure it never ever happens!
Bro lets make sure you understand who "they" is. I felt depressed when I thought about how the North destroyed the infrastructure and only institutions slaves and the rest of the South had ever known. I felt depressed when the Union Army ransacked the entire South and took anything and everything, including shoes and clothing. How come all that slave labor made all that money in the South, yet the North was better developed, etc?
@@tofan2622
You make a strong factual point! It wasn't only the south;the north played a major part in slavery.
@@melanatedo.g6652 Absolutely! The bad part is that for history, where slaves were bought, sold, etc, all that documentation was kept. Part of the problem is the same people who burned that stuff at the end of the war, still won't admit the dirty little secret about NYC, LA, and most other big cities. Ok last thing man, we have to ask ourselves, did the North really want to ban the atlantic slave trade??? Or did they just want to fill the country in with "their immigrant slaves". Be safe man, we have to make sure the truth in history stays, the good, the bad and the ugly!
Bro. It will never. I got a good link for you with some good info. U will love. Let me know if u want it bro. Stay up!!!
@@sarahchambers867
Peace sista Sarah,
Yes,I wud love to get the information you are talking about.
If it's FBA & informative,I'm all for it.
Understand this was not long ago at all.
There are a lot of black. People living to day.growup in these same conditions. I'm one them
I don't think they were "posing".

They were wearing clothes and living in nice modern housings. In Africa, they were naked, living in mud holes.
IKR.
Doubt they were "posing"...
Absolutely right my friend, they are not posing

Conceptual art who said they are slaves maybe they were forced out of they homes and that was a refugee camp ,
Of course that was then and this is now. Water over the dam long gone.
One should never forget their history.Some time history has a tendency of repeating itself.This trauma done to our ancestors is handed down to us,their offsprings in the diagnosis of post traumatic stress syndrom.They weren't allowed to express their frustration and emotion of hurt and pain.These evil folks abused them all including the very young innocent boys and girls.That dark pit God throwed the fallen angels into,hopefully,he did the same to these evil folks.
Thank you .
They are enslaved not slaves.
Wow, real enlightened of you. It's almost as if the word "Slave" refers to an enslaved person.
That's the same thing.
How is this possible. Camera's did not exist untill 1885. That would make them free people with no opportunity, not slaves.
Cameras were invented in the 1830s. You can search on UA-cam for "photos from the 1840s."
No one in these pictures are posing. They're just standing or sitting there thinking of a way to escape.

Wonderful pictures, wonderful exchange in the comment section..
I truly believe in "Freedom of Speech" and I truly believe Americans should comment freely,of course, respectfully...
wow great photos
Amazing photos;😨😭
Great pictures I’m not gonna say thank you. We were not slaves were prisoners😤😤😤
No that was slavery, worse than being a prisoner
The crazy thing is black people were already here who you think brought Columbus here go look up mansa musa pretty sure he showed him the way
I think Mansa Musa reached Brazil.
But his sailors never came back.
“Black” people were already here because we are indigenous to this land. We were lied to about US history. We were enslaved on our own land. The majority of us are not African, some of us just look similar. Even Africans know this. In fact, some of us were taken from here and brought to other foreign lands.
Black is real Israelites
Lol.
And those people are laborers not slaves there’s a difference they were getting paid why not show the black planters with actual white slaves
Every race has been enslaved, yet today’s discussions only ever focus on the black slaves.!!!
Pirates of the Barbary coast. It’s another side of slavery that’s ignored .
Notice how clean the areas are.
Now look at Baltimore and other.big cities.
Mmmmm
Looks like a scene from today. They haven’t improved themselves at all.
You can see their masters were caring.
Ragged clothes, constantly depressed faces.
Yep sounds good
I am a free thinker and some of these pics dnt portray slaves ijs.
See the video's description for sources.
Posing? I think not!

I don't see no white people
Who told you these people are slaves.. insult...do some research instead of what you learned in school.

Just as they ( the RACIST white south) is silent on the ISSUE, the of playing music remains silent here.

@Private Privacy ~born of jackal, you are the beast
So the "bill" comes due...what then??
Lol
History Debunked just posted about black slave owners in the South at this very time. How many of us knew there were many free blacks in the South then, and that some of them owned their own plantations and bred and sold slaves? One of the wealthiest slave holders in South Carolina was a black man, one among 171 others in the state. ua-cam.com/video/n14RB8Zvjyo/v-deo.html
In modern times the slaves are in the NFL
I wonder if any of them are my relatives my grandfather was bought from west Africa to the West Indies and sold to the Johnson plantation in South Carolina my dad was 67 when I was born and that's how I has Grand parents who were slaves because of that I traced my lineage through African ancestry and my results came back Bissa tribe In Burkina faso one day I'll return and when I do my ancestors who dna within me we'll to.
Dam who made tis possible
at least there were no gangs polluting the streets
At least there is police for gangs and bad guys u dont know or no clu of there every day life situations oh yea cuz ur racists

Highly doubt the Slaves were posing. One of the Greatest sins and stains on America the Sin of Chattel Slavery.
No posing in those photos. All the "posers" are alive today!
Don't like how the word "posing" is used, which is far from what any of people are actually doing..
If they were not posing then the people in the photos would be blurry.
They look really clean and polite. Lucky people.
Who dislikes a video like this??? Wtf 🤬
People from the North that want to make it out like only the South supported slavery. I mean they could never talk about their dirty little secret that is NYC, that would be a travesty!
If I live in those times I will be a outlaw and live in the mountains where there’s no one around miles and miles away just me in a house and kidnap three beautiful women’s

I have been to Africa. Not good.
Hmmmm.... and how would it be if they're weren't forced into slavery.... Europe and US had humanitarian aid and education to the continent... Provided educational and technological insights... instead of just saying 'not human'? Where would we might be?

@@Anecdotal1 - You always want something from others. Asians were enslaved, too, and now look at them. Europeans were also enslaved by the Romans.

@@monicahaymes4361 Fuck karma.
Besides, that only applies when I do someone wrong. Which in this case I stated as an opinion.
@HorizonGaming791
Wow that's original.
So pointing out facts is racist now.
Well at least your one word comment gave so much clarity.
1865 was the last year all blacks were gainfully employed members of US society and even then got free housing, medical care and food. Shit, you're welcome.
@HorizonGaming791 You are overlooking the fact that the majority of early immigrants to the American colonies were indentured servants, which is classified as a form of slavery, and those "servants" were white. They were frequently treated with brutality and many died before their contracts expired.
