- Watch the full Nexus episode on TRT World: • Church of England’s ON...
Our Senior Fellow Rafe Heydel-Mankoo took part in a panel debate on Turkish television's TRT World, to debate whether the Church of England should create a £1 Billion fund to atone for its investment fund having an historic link to slavery.
Why should we pay reparations to Nigerians who sold their own people, is absolutely insane.
Because it wasn’t dehumanising as the European one. According to a grifter who wants money. No basis there.
@T.DeCervantez grifter is the only term for people like him I’m afraid.
You cost his family who owned slaves money and free labour abd much more thats what hes demanding to be paid its ridiculous honestly
This Yemj guy thinks his ancestørs suffering should be raised above any other suffering, it’s an absurd mindset. On top of that, he’s from Afríca and his ancestørs actually sold słaves.
I am a Nigerian and agree the guy is a grifter and has some nerve demanding reparations…
Reparations for slavery, the greatest and most blatant grift in history.
It's a career gift as well, you can build an entire career about it, and no matter how much money will be paid, it can never be enough because if it is than an industry of grifters with no skills loses their jobs. Racial Racist Communism is what it is. Nothing more.
@@chrisbennett6260 Chris are you black? do you think you deserve free money for historical slavery? that's what that reply screams to me.
@@chrisbennett6260😂 you're as dumb as Yemi on the FACTS of the matter
@@chrisbennett6260it is a grift. The descendants of slaves living in the West are much better off, than Africans, because their ancestors were enslaved. The incessant whining for $ is absolutely a grift and everyone knows it
Juss give me sum muny and I will be soo much happy
As a person with Slavic roots I demand Reparations from the Arabs that enslaved my ancestors. I am deeply offended that the word slave comes from the White Slavic people that were enslaved by the Moors from Africa. Africa invented and profited from slavery, Africa should pay all the reparations.
Absolutely correct, they should be paying you for centuries of this treatment.
As well as Turks, Monglos also should pay slavic people reparations
knowledge bomb initiated..thats probably THE STRONGEST CASE for reperations... The term slave *literally stems from* your people...being enslaved...by africans...fuck me mate you win the internet, im genuinely applauding.👏 well said friend! Well said! Do me a favour and randomly drop a mic the next chance you get! Its all thats missing here.
LOL
Ditto! LOL
I am a black woman. British born, my parents are Jamaican. My grandparents are Jamaican, I don't know about their parents and further back.
I am not oppressed, I do not feel oppressed, I do not feel anything about slavery - I don't even wanna talk about it because I'm sick of the milking of it. I wasn't there at that time - though I sympathise with the people, I wasn't there. I haven't experienced racism in my whole life in the UK. I don't know why some black people are clinging to this like it's something? We all need to move forward in life and do better as human beings. The past is the past. Leave it alone and look to the future. We need to unite as human beings under God.
you need to do more research sister. Jamaican tax payers have been paying REPARATIONS to former BRITISH SLAVE OWNERS all the way into the 1990's. If the slave owners received reparations , (Britain, France, United States slaveowners) then the formerly enslaved folks DEFNITELY deserve reparations and a whole lot more!
HEY STOP throughing intelagence into this! We can not have it! We can not have smart people saying smart things! (I know, I am 1 of the dumb ones from western canada - white/native by the way)
Sensible reply... at last!
The point that you are making is that YOU dont feel oppressed or robbed by History. There is a whole continent of your black brothers and sisters living in Africa, U.S., U.K., Jamaica, West Indies, South America, that are prejudiced against, experience racist insults as a result of this crime against humanity. It is a given for millions. Do you think they chose to feel that way? Oppression is REAL.Racialism against black people is particularly evident almost everywhere globally. You are one in a million. Congratulations. Black Africa history in terms of slavery and colonialism and neo-colonialism are fundamental chapters of history. Africa has been pillaged and plundered relentlessly. Countries that are interested in Africa's resources continue to capitalise using strategy, tactics, interference and are motivated by greed. The mighty economies of Europe owe much to territories that they stole from. Its in the past? Imagine if your loved ones were packed on a ship to slave away for ever, somewhere never to be heard of again. At least there is tomorrow hey? Because that is then the past.
What an an unfortunate view. Truly radical. God bless you sister.
Slavery reparations: where people who have never owned slaves are forced to give money to people who have never been slaves
I demand reparations from the Italian government, following their illegal invasion and enslavement of my islands, 2000 years ago.
Ancient British Druid Lives Matter.
@davidthomas 3826 🤣🤣🤣 You SUMMED it up perfecly.
Perfect.
They would only waste it on trainers,jewellery and cars 😂
I replied to you a couple of hours ago.
I've returned and my reply has gone.
Nigeria was one of the worst slave selling countries.
They were actually angry when the British stopped the trade.
You are so foolish for saying that. Most of the stroies told about we blacks selling blacks to europens were all lies and manipulated.
They still are
It still is, slavery is still strong there as is the provision of sex workers to many countries.
@@andyxox4168 yes known in Nigeria as the Italian Job
Paying reparations for slavery would be like paying child support for a kid you never had, to a woman you never slept with
It is quite clear where your mind is. Perhaps, you take the time re-orient your mind.

Great analogy 😂I'll remember to use that👍

Yemi is such a hypocrite. His own family owed slaves and he has the cheek to ask for reparations!. Rafe is spot on with his analysis.
YAMI is a race hustler...
Exactly, this guy’s own family did this and he wants money from “whíte” ppl for something his own ancestørs did. He says his ancestørs treated them better, what a bunch of crap. Cannibalísm and human sacrifíce isn’t treating them “better”.
Yes Rafe is right. This African simply sees an opportunity to load fake guilt on Englishmen simply because he wants FREE MONEY. He is using the US Democratic party victimhood to try to get FREE money. He should instead inspire Africans to follow Norman Tebbit's advice.
Christian ministers should be about God's business. Preaching Jesus, getting people saved. This black Anglican should be defrocked unless he gets saved and preaches the gospel.
The church wont pay the victims of those who were 3ecks u ally abuzed by their members of their kult do you think they would pay 🌚 😂 i wont hold my breath 😂😂😂😂
To quote Morgan Freeman, "The way we stop racism, is to stop talking about it."

If you go back that far you’re related to approximately half a million people, so there’s no way you can be sure of that.
@@therightarmofthefreeworld4703How far back do you stop looking? Slavery did not make the people of Britain rich, 99.9% of the British people were living in poverty!
Even if there were, what's it got to do with you?
The audacity of this person! His own people were enslaving and selling them and he wants reparations.....
He is the one who should be providing reparations.
If i have understand (i"m french...) he want britain paid compensations because britain have stop slave trade, and his family revenues come from slave trade. I have good?
Give the 1 Billion to the pensioners who’ve toiled for this country. Sick of patronising people who slag GB off. We haven’t been angels but we abolished slavery.
Slavery was never about racism. Black slave traders sold their black neighbours. If you want reparations go back to the source, which is black African slave traders.
Yes because that’s where the actual money which was used to buy people lies. British taxpayers paid the owners to buy the slaves back and bought their freedom. Plus the British spent a lot of money and British peoples lives ending slavery. Now the money paid to the black people who sold other black people needs to be given back. That’s where the debt is, with black people who profited by selling black people.

@@thembakhumalo-li7blnope, that’s absolutely what happened, and the arab countries took ten times more slaves than western countries, and were also responsible for the barbary slave trade which was the largest in history with over a million white European slaves
Gimme your money. Yemi is Nigerian, the biggest slave traders in Africa, centuries before the transatlantic slave trade, who bought slaves on the African market, from Africans.
And whites. There where Irish sent there
Pretty sure they still have them over there; "indentured servitude".
Spot on
Gimme money money is the motto 😮... Absolutely shameless to use god when the Nigerians were complicit in the slave trade! They even have a square and statute dedicated to a famous female slave trader called Efunroye Tinubu . Absolute double standards 😠
Well said, Dr.
Just watched to the end of this discussion and Yemi is saying that black on black slavery was OK because it was normal in those days and should be forgotten. But apparently white on black slavery, which ,however deplorable, was also normal in those days but mustn't be forgotten and deserves reparation !! Talk about double standards.
This is the norm from theses types of scum, this is why in America everyone accepts black on black killing is the norm, but in reality its equally deplorable, say it all and has never been dealt with especially within those black communities!
This black priest is totally ignorant of slave history. He needs to get some education on this
Absolutely NO ……. Reparations to anyone !!!! None !
The hypocrisy of the African guy is embarrassing.
His family were slavers but that has been forgotten by him and those in Nigeria. Really? They only remember slavery by British and the slavery imposed by black people who used and sold them in the first place no longer counts or has implications! . How about trying to get all the other Empires who had more slaves and carried on well after Britain stopped it to cough up! Good ñuck with that one! They will tell you where to go as we should!.How about his family who gained from slavery pay themselves? What a terrible hypocrite!
Reparations from France for the Norman invasion NOW!

No shit...
He's Nigerian!@! Nuff said 😅😅
His people were the worst offenders for it, they took slaves and sold them to Europeans yet never paid a penny back.
None of them knows there own history. Said it was all in past and for gotten about. Because he got hit with his own family selling black people into slavery.
@@margaretbright3988 They mess around in school and refuse to learn so are as dumb as stumps, they either don't work or get carried at work by others.
This sums up their lazy ways and lack of intelligence, the only skills they have is blaming others and violence.
How embarrassing is it that outsiders know more about his history than he does?
All he did was make himself look dumb and confirm every stereotype about his people.
The people in the comments are laughing at him now.
I think that Nigerian already contacted me about winning "millions" or some such. What, are we supposed to go back to the beginning of time and try to "right" every "wrong" that has ever been done. Just ridiculous.
Oh. Rafe is a great debater. He knows his stuff!
The outcome of slavery is racism. What are you talking about. History shows slavers were often of the same race. Slavery isn’t white on black. This is insulting.
Carefully ignore the slavery pre transatlantic slave trade or the African slavers or the Arab slave trade and Barbary slavers. Many Arab nations only made slavery illegal in 1962 and the Houthi's brought it back to Yemen. There are more slaves in Africa and Asia now than during the Transatlantic trade, but these grifters care nothing about them, just about getting paid by people who never owned slaves. If you want to talk about Africa being poor. Well, socialism and corruption are far more pertinent than slavery.
@@simanothername3035 And these grifters hardly ever mention contemporary human sex trafficking, one of the worst forms of slavery there is (degrading, violent, humiliating). But they love to point fingers at white people now, who never owned a single slave, blaming them for a human institution that goes back into the darkness of early history.
And the really funny thing is, until the British empire went to places like Africa they had never seen or experienced or partook in slavery, the British Empire pretty much learned everything it knew about slavery FROM BLACK SLAVE OWNERS AND SELLERS, so when you see the bigger picture in its full form, BLACK PEOPLE ARE THE ACTUAL INVENTORS AND CREATORS OF THE WHOLE SLAVE TRADE AND EVERYTHING THAT IS SLAVERY.
What a grift, create the most heinous evil and disgusting things to ever do to human beings AND THEN BLAME WHITE PEOPLE FOR IT AND DEMAND MONEY FOR IT!!
You couldn’t make it up could you.
Ive two words for them, and they end in, OFF.

Couldn't of put it better myself. Life is unfair. Deal with it. or as someone I know used to say Life is unfair, so just get on with it.
No two people on earth are the same and they call for equality. Why would anyone want equality.
@@sprsmoke Brilliant answer👍👍😃😃
These people aren’t bothered what happened to their ancestors, they just want the money 🤬🤬🤬
just like BLM
100%
That's right! And there were many slave owners that were very good to the slaves. These reparations bullies want everyone to believe that every black slave was starved, beaten, raped, ect. by every slave owner. Once again, they have NEVER researched THE ENTIRETY OF SLAVERY. They pick and choose the parts that will support their narrative.
Are you concerned that you and your ancestors have been the worst criminals the world has ever seen?
How do you know? Your ancestors were never commodified and traded like animals, forced to lie in their own waste among rotting carcasses and then sold to monsters who whipped the hell out of them. Er...for 4hundred years. These comments are making me ill.
When someone cant even pronounce the word 'human', there is something seriously wrong!
I’m glad we have intelliegent people that can argue the facts correctly

Yemi: your typical “ok for me but not for thee”
A priest claiming it is wrong to lay the sins of the father on the child is in direct contradiction to the entire basis of his religion.
You are referring to Exodus 34: 6,7 which mentions Jehovah being merciful to those who love him and punishing the guilty’s children up to 4 generations.
Two things:
One, it’s God the Father who does this, because unlike us he can read hearts of men. We don’t have the ability to even know if this is happening.
Two, this Old Testament verse shows this is only 4 generations. Even if what you say was true, that this is “the entire basis of his religion”, (I wouldn’t know) … it’s been more than 4 generations.
I’m only commenting to direct you to the scripture, not support his personal faith. I have my own.
If this is true, then the basis for religion is obliterated. There is no need for baptism to remove “original sin,” and no need for Jesus saving us on the cross. Oh well…
@@briandobbelaere3918 That’s a leap, like saying “the entire basis of his religion.” Simply put, details matter, but saying them doesn’t make something else absolutely true. I was just pointing out one scripture in this case. I'm not sure how you went all the way to disqualifying baptism.
Shouty racist black man scores big own goal
Priest my arse, he’s a auld grifter of the worst kind.
From the school of Al Sarpton.
As always, it’s all about is free money for Africans, on grounds of race. 200+ years of bellyaching and whining about a trade that emanated from Africa and included the white slave whereby millions of white women and children slaves were taken from Europe for the sexual pleasures of sub-Saharan Africa whilst white men were worked to death. Why are we, the people of no colour, not being compensated by Africa? Slavery is still endemic in Africa and it has less than nothing to do with white people.
People like him go to church in my neighborhood. They use poor donations for people with SUV's that drive here from New York State. I live in London Ontario Canada. They have so much money and time to worship themselves and play victim. Its gross, its not wonder their women are so HHHUUUUUUGGGGGGEEEEEE!!!! That much free stuff anyone would be.
Slavery had nothing to do with racism.Check the origin of the word slave.Slavery has existed for thousands if years and all societies,countries and empires took part in it.The British Empire was the first empire in all of human history to try and abolish it at great human and finanial expense.
Why don't they tell the Arabs to pay reparations?
Exactly!!
Because all Arabs will fart in their general direction.
Because the Arabs would quite rightly tell them where to go in no uncertain terms. We should be doing the same thing.
Arabs got round this by saying that "slavery doesn't exist in Islam" so long as the slaves became Muslim, they cannot be enslaved.
Some arabs are still practicing slavery
Britain Ended Slavery, yet Ethiopia was still dealing in slavery up to 1942 and Nigeria not that long before of their own people.
I can't believe this is even a conversation still
Yemi’s reparations can be a first class one way ticket back to Nigeria where he’ll be safe from racism

"the slaves my family kept were not dehumanised" - is this guy for real?
Yeah, I guess they woke up each morning and thanked God for their lives. Honestly, beggars belief.
Sheer blatant hypocracy! Hope he remembers to ask for forgiveness for his own famoly and coughs up loads of money himself as he obviously benefitted personally from slavery, unlike us, as he was a slaver and has got on very well in the church here because of it! Risen above the poor white indigenous church leaders who had no benefits from slavery which ended 2 hundred years before they were born, and whose ancestors grew up in extreme poverty and virtual slavery themselves in Victorian times, between the 2 wars and after the last one!
Coming from Royalty or not they didn't teach him the good manners not to speak ver others when they're answering him. I could hear his spittle landing from here!

Well done Ian and Rafe, yemi needs to return to his own country
Yemi was born in Nigeria and immigrated to the U.K. So not a descendant of slaves but descended from people who owned slaves. Why the hell would he deserve to get any money?
😂he is greedy😅😅😅
Nigerian Kings in the past didn't dehumanise THEIR slaves totally laughable
Of course not. They fed them on honey and spices, massaged them 24/7 and gave them luxurious divans draped in silk for them to lay down upon.
They were the nice slave owners.
Surely you jest🤣🤣🤣?@@drewburdett7886
This religious man should know that thousands of slaves were murdered in Africa during African ceremonies, such as funerals of tribal leaders. Most people would consider this dehumanizing. Even more people were forced to walk across the Sahara, despite the reality of a very high mortality rate for this trip. The muslim slave drivers didn't care, because they purchased the slaves so cheaply from African slave dealers, like the ancestors of this religious man.
If I remember correctly, I once read that the Nigerian slave owners would cut off the hair of the slaves so they could not be identified as to which tribe they were stolen from.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Surely reparations are owed by the Nigerian slave owners.
If he knew his own history he wouldn't be asking for reparations the fool.
Would need to learn it.
@MaryJoyce-ov1di Rafe was trying his best to teach him, but he's not interested because it will end his race grifting career.
He can ask Islam for reparations.
Its not his history though. Just like other white people dead or alive wasnt mine. He thinks being from.the dame country embues him with that knowlegde. It doesnt. Only study or passive-learning does. Hence why Rafe knows "his history" more than him. I just cannot take these people seriously.
But his slave owning ancestors treated their slaves like family, (according to him).

I think people should have an intensive course on slavery, most people don't know anything on the history of slavery. Fed up with the black community thinking they're the only ones who have a blighted history.
Whites from all over europe suffered terribly from slavery at least 600 years before the 1750.
From what I have learnt, a very low percentage of black slaves were gathered by white slave traders. The vast majority were sold into slavery by not only neighboring tribes but also by people from within their own country. Another thing that gets over looked is that over the centuries actually the majority of slaves were from a white back ground. I wish humanity as a whole could come together, abolish all hatred between peoples because of race, religion, country and other dividing mindsets and start from a clean slate. We are all human, we all need to live on this planet together. Just imagine the advances in science and living conditions if countries didn't need to spend huge amounts of GBP on military armament. Imagine what could be done in America if they didn't spend trillions of dollars on a war on terror, the changes in Africa if natural resources went towards breaking famine rather that lining the pockets of dictators. Our race, the human race could be so much more advanced if we stopped looking backwards and started looking forwards.
Cannot believe race hustlers are attacking the only reason they are free in the first place. These people sicken me.

How can foreigners dictate to British people about spending money ?
I'm in agreement with the reverend here. All my Grandparents came to UK from Ireland after the war and were not treated well. So should all people in our positions be saying we want compensated for this. I also lived in Kuwait for a few years when I was young. I was spat on, beaten up a few times and even kicked off a moving school bus. Should I be contacting the Kuwait embassy to get things rolling with the repatriations? Oh... and I also sat next to an Ethiopian boy in school there, who used to sharpen his pencil and try and stab me in the leg with it most days. So maybe I should look at getting compensated from them as well. What utter nonsense. Nothing is ever going to get resolved on this planet, as long as people want to hold onto the past and try and blame people now for things they had no hand in.
If Yemi is suffering such horrible racism here, maybe he should use some of his grift money to return home.
My thoughts exactly 👍but he wouldn't be much of a victim there as he has been indoctrinated to believe he is here.
Typical example of someone who has no understanding of their own history , and then to admit his own ancestors were practicing the same thing . And to sit there and say , are well that was different . I can accept that ignorance is bliss , but this chap takes it to a completely different level . But I’ve no doubt the guy in charge will send the money, because he’s a complete fool . But don’t expect me to give anything in the future , while this nonsense is going on .
He shouldn't have the opportunity to use his grift money, he should go back to his Nigerian paradise on his own bank account.
Excellent comment!

Hundreds of Christians have been murdered in Nigeria in the last few months. Will they be paying compensation to their families?

Never mind that, let's focus on the Ottoman Empire slavery...that regime captured over 1m slaves & castrated the boys/men. Now that is a bona fide genocide in comparison as Prof. David Starkey pointed out, somewhat undiplomatically a few years ago!

Reparations just for a certain demographic? NOOO enough of this ridiculousness!
They are ignorant and lazy and do not want to work. So they spew what ever lunacy they want to get free stuff. F them.
Basically "white people need to be made to work for me, because slavery is bad". The irony definitely is lost on him.
Nobody let him know that his countrymen sold his ancestors into slavery? That slavery is still a thing in Africa?
Oh he knows.
Did you watch the whole video?
He actually said that his own family were Nigerian royalty and so owned slaves which was ok as it was normal then and everyone in Nigeria has forgotten it now! Apparently, his slaves didn't mind being enslaved by his damiiy! Total hypocracy! Probably wants compensation because we stopped it!
Thankyou👏👏 great discussion!! Love it❤
Many women over the age of 70, like myself, were blatantly discriminated against. We didn’t receive equal pay, we were forced to resign when we married, we couldn’t get bank or other loans as single paid women without a male guarantor , we were denied certain professions ( Eg pilots) and many university courses had limited quotas for women ( Eg 10 % women allowed to study medicine in the early 1960’s). There was blatant sexism and sexual discrimination socially as well. And these women are still alive - unlike the slaves of history.
North Africa colonized Europe from 700 to 1400, so does that not mean Africa did it first?
Plus Northern Africa used to have quite a lot of Christians before Islam conquered the area.
The word 'slave' is a derivation of Slav, the Slavic people of Southern Europe who were taken in to bondage by The Moors of North Africa
But that was beneficial and non violent 😂😂😂
@@gumnut6922lots of breeding (raype)
Not according to Europeans. Because you keep claiming North Africans are and were Europeans. 😂
It’s a money grab, bear in mind we the British spent a lot of money and lives banning and freeing slavery worldwide.
they also transported the most slaves to north america
Who were sold to them by black slave owners@@davidjones-vx9ju
@@davidjones-vx9ju No they didn't. The Spanish and French did. Fucking learn something
i did maybe you should look it up too@@beastminer147
British involvement in the transatlantic slave trade began in 1562, and by the 1730s Britain was the world's biggest slave-trading nation. The triangular route from Europe to Africa, to the Americas and back to Europe was highly lucrative.
@@beastminer147
We need to stop this discussion of redistributing money to people that didn’t suffer the injustice of slavery. Everyone just get on with life.
Tell them to f off.. this is absurd, we owe nothing.
My ancestor died in the navy freeing slaves , where do i send the bill ? , it seems Yemi thinks its ok for his family to have slaves but not anyone else , he couldnt care less about slaves he just wants money , disgusting
I was listening to Alastair McConachie, the Scottush Unionist (for GB & N.Ireland) who proposed there should be a fitting memorial to the men who died in the West African Squadron of the RN. I agree. RN veteran here. 🇬🇧
Its just a stick to hit the white man with ,it's revenge they want not reperations.
@@steadynumber1 That would be brilliant , I think those brave men deserve to be remembered. Thank you for letting me know about this , my Dad was also in the RN and he would have loved to have known this too
And the British government spent an incredible amount of taxpayers money on ending the western slave trade a debt that was only paid off in 2015, how about reparations for that to the British taxpayer?, No I didn't think so.
Fake news, civil war wasn't about slavery. The slaves came in to help the north. The North was losing. Once they added the slaves it changed the war. After the war slaves couldn't leave the plantation
He’s a priest not a historian, YET got angry at an ACTUAL historian for telling him facts! 🤣🙄 How embarrassing…
That guy is not a historian of black history. He didn't even know that Britain created Nigeria in 1914, long after slavery. That most of the slaves came from Angola and Mozambique. His information and reasoning was basic.
Are you trying to say a priest can't be a historian? You're too funny.
@@uchenna127by the way, googling a question doesn't make you an expert on any subject. In case you were wondering.
@@smartazz61 hhmmm...that would make sense, if I was actually "googling" a question. I've been studying the history of slavery for over 20 years. I don't need to google anything.
Any person of Religion or morality can get angry at PURE EVIL, it’s the main effect of moral enrichment. Anger at evil. Who would criminalise this reaction but a Devil…!?
it's impossible to have a constructive conversation with someone like him.
The audacity of asking for reparations when your own ancestors were the ones who enslaved those people in the first place... The double standard of dismissing slavery as an "old custom" for africans but playing victim for the same "old custom" of europeans... And denying the current and widespread issue of slavery TODAY in Africa, trying to gaslight everybody as if he knows more just because he was born there. Absolutely revolting and dishonest.
Taking a billion dollar fund from a church would be like pulling teeth...Thank you to Raffe for saying what ive been thinking for many years.
Black man shaking his head when faced with the truth about slavery. Shocked I am
Education is free in the UK, we dont need to throw money at people that have no connection to slavery for them to be educated
Free at the point of use you mean?
Education is not free Its paid for by the Tax payer.
@leedeehan the education is free because it's crap , don't forget to add that 😂.
He’s not talking about education for them, he’s talking about ‘re-education’ for US 🤬
@@greendragonspirit1646 its only crap because of the woke ideology they get taught in schools. .
It cost britain £20 million to fund the Slavery Abolition Act 1833. In 1833, this was equivalent to approximately 40% of the Government's total annual expenditure.
The former slave owners often squeezed another 6 to 12 years of further service as unpaid 'apprentices', meaning slave owners were compensated to the tunes of millions - and continued to get free labour.
The market for enslaved people did not disappear following abolition in Britain. Traders continued to meet demand in places like Brazil and Cuba. To combat the illegal trade in African people who had been enslaved, the British Navy organised anti-slavery patrols off the West African coast. The was called the West African fleet.
The kingdom of Dahomey ( you know the one in "Woman King" ) was a major center in the Atlantic Slave Trade until 1852 when the British imposed a naval blockade to stop the trade.
I think any reparations should be paid by rich descendants of the slave owners. The money should be used to fight modern slavery in Africa. in 2021, there were 1.6 million individuals living in modern slavery in Nigeria.
"How dare you presume to tell me my own history?" It works both ways Yemi. You have no reservations about lecturing us on our history.
"but but but I have to have my way!!!!!" And this is why we avoid them
@@seankingwell3692 Exactly , BLAME LEVELING MENTALITY .
its also an idiotic idea. If im from England, that does not mean i would know the countries history better than someone else simply by the fact ive lived there.
Whos to judge.
Black guy telling Rafe (a historian) not to tell him factual history because it doesn't help his case is pure gold
So if funds can not right the wrongs of the past, why demand such "free" funds?
I laugh when he said "yeah we owned slave but this was different"
Google - "There were millions and most of the slaves were of Spanish and Slavic origin. A silenced history: the traffic of European Christian slaves at the hands of Muslims" - who is going to compensate for this???
the galley slaves
Under pressure from western nations the Gulf countries only abolished slavery as follows, Saudi Arabia 1962, Oman 1970, Qatar 1952, UAE 1963, North Yemen 1962, South Yemen 1967. funny despite it involving hundreds of thousands of slaves you don't see the media full of activists fighting for reparations for these slaves even though plenty of them are still being alive today only 50-70 years after the abolition's and most of these countries are super rich. 🤔
Correct, nobody tells the History of Islamic Slavery that continues in parts of Africa to this day!
@Mi-bi6ez absolutely correct!
As soon as the historian calls out his BS, he says "you're reading too much history" and starts trying to talk over everyone.
How can someone whose ancestors kept slaves not see the hypocrisy of his own comments. Rafe is correct factual history does not care about feelings.
@@lorna5193, he does not see the hypocrisy, but he is lining up to make a lot of money for them grift.
if you can find someone that was a slave, pay them
I love how these "activists" never talk about people like William Wilberforce
Black man: "It's different when we do it."
Once you go black or something along those lines. Goes for slavery too, it seems.
Typical black victimhood that was once again annihilated by an absolute chubby wizard.
exactly
Also Islam..."its different when we do it"...Only completely innocent white people need to pay. YES there are slave markets in Libya, Africa and the Middle East TODAY but who cares?
Slavery is not about "dehumanisation"; it is about being pushed and forced to work, work, work to a certain degree that you are at the end of your powers.
Many of Europe's peasants were treated as bad as the slaves and to be satisfied with modern life where they are being replaced by technology.
NO REPAY! PREPOSTEROUS CLAIM FROM CONTEMPORARIES !
We are not responsible for the actions of what our ancestors carried out,no reparations should be paid to any country
We have already paid reparations with all the trillions we give in aid to these countries! Why is he not asking other Empires for recompense? Belgium had far more slaves than British Empire and French, Spanish, Portuguese and Dutch were all involved in slavery. Why just us? Because he is an anti-white British racist! Tried to say black people suffer more than white under discrimination! Victim mentality and laziness is why people in any country do not succeed. Look where he is and all the MPs, business owners, laywers, doctors, etc.who are black and how they have achieved what they wanted in our country which is still majority white! All our leaders are now immigrants in England, Wales, Scotland and our Capital, London.
100%
Unfortunately, many whites have been convinced that they are.
Did he really just say, "I think you are reading too much history"? 😂😂
We can blame Hollywood.
When the west would have swept this part of their history under the rug,like so many other cultures/country's did including in Africa this whole collective trauma would be non existent.
A church man or not, Yemi is a grifter and is drunk on power, he sat there shaking his head as the other two spoke, why is he even getting a chance to speak. Using the race card, coming from a ‘man of cloth’, is disgusting.
Yes ,he's bogus...talking about "education" when he's visualizing a new Audi sports car...and a role x watch.
Don't educate me on my history while I educate you on yours. Yemi ranting on at the end showed this man's unhinged and irrational arguments

"It ws a normal thing for kings"
it was also considered normal for orhers to own selves at the time.
"But they didn't dehumanise them"
Literally being owned in it's self is dehumanising.
And he seems less concerned about actual slave's living to day.
Shocking.
That historian is a wealth of knowledge. He totally smashed that debate with facts, the black guy doesn't even know his history. Hesaid how can you can you know my history more than me!, well he does. I put that question back to you sir.
These spurious claims for reparations are just a shakedown.
"How can you tell me my history?", While he's in their country telling them their history.
Why is he speaking on behalf of the Caribbean. Does he realise the Irish were also sent to the Caribbean as slaves and you had the indentured Indian's.
It's the same illogical response that anyone uses when you criticize them.
Like when cops do something stupid, you criticize, and they respond "are you cop"?
You don't have to be a fish to know about fish.
