There was also a white slave trade by the wealthy Africans who came to Europe to take back caucasian slaves hundred of years ago, not many people know this.
There were many black people, enslaving other black people in the past, as Murray pointed out. Since she is a middle-class British black woman, there's a better than even chance that her ancestors were among those, and she has benefited directly from it.

There are many individuals, organisations and institutions that benefit financially this very day from the profits and investments made during the slave trade. Those investments and purchases like landed estates still exist, they didn't disappear the day slavery was abolished! The Church of England is one example. The Banks are another. The Royals and extended family are a third example. Universities, a forth.
@@ohdearism If that reasoning would be effective then no one on earth would resist or endure to such type of analysis. Including in African societies, in which slavery and other issues that nowadays people regard them as evil existed prior to any involvement of Europeans in the continent.

People move one, including because in the end, we all are sinners and have skeletons in the closet. Everyone. And not has the right to pass that kind of judgments over others, including judgement on past generations, considering themselves as better than those past generations, completely ignoring the circumstances and context of their life. If you act like, one day, in the future, your descendants will judge you in the same manner, as make not mistake, often live is surprising and perhaps many of today´s individual that are so keen to pass judgment on the past generations and past events, perhaps they will get a real surprise how their one choices and behaviors will be judged in the future. It is called hubris.
As a Nigerian man living in Nigeria but keenly attentive to events around the globe, I am deeply appalled at some of the madness I hear my fellow Africans regurgitate on international media on matters like slavery and reparation, colonialism and migration. From my perspective, I don't even think any African with a shred of pride in him or herself should be running off to Europe to escape the disgustingly hard living conditions in Africa. Yes, there is wholesale misgovernance, there is corruption and decay everywhere one looks, but remember, we hurled the same Europeans out of our shores claiming we were adults enough to manage our own affairs and govern ourselves. It didnt take long for everyone to see all of that was BS. But now guess where "our tired, our poor, and our huddled masses" troop to: it is to the same Europe that we thumbed our noses at not more than a half a century ago. I have told as many as would care to hear me that we Africans are mighty lucky I'm not European else I would've driven every last man-jack migrant back with the helpful advice to go back to their god-given land and to run their affairs there. The fact that the white man in trying to make amends (though I wonder what for) has flung open his doors, is no justification to subject him to such discomfort in his own god-given land. We all know what would've happened to any migrant doing the same any other place in the world. Our arrogance and temerity when we should be meek and compliant in another man's land is what kills me. And I must repeat that every black African migrant in Europe is mighty lucky I'm not European else they would've learnt a lesson in manners by now.

The colonial powers just kept the lid on those issues as letting it erupt would - if nothing else - impact on their profits, but it still prevented the bloodshed we see today.
Actually its worse than that. That "past" isnt even properly understood because when you actually look at how the UK ended slavery for itself and many other countries by force its something to be very proud of
@user-SubvurzIV how many times are you going to move the goal post and redefine what words mean in order to suit your social agenda? When the "prison industrial complex slavery" is ended, what is the next "slavery"? "Low wage slavery"? "Not enough paid leave slavery"? The only slavery that persists in the Western world is weak minds being shackled to an ideology that's only acceptable to someone without the capacity or moral integrity to take accountability for their own lives. No one is coming to save you, and no one should. Can't provide value to the village, don't eat at the village table. End of discussion.
@user-SubvurzIV Is that your alternative history as taught by you ? If anything the prison system in the Uk is too soft, too many crimes are ignored and sentencing too short mainly because they have too few prison spaces. By Disparity i assume this is another example of what we have been talking about ? Victim culture, self pity ? Lol I hate to break it to you pal, if most of the people committing crimes are one ethnic group or another then they are going to deservedly "dis-proportionally" dominate in prison.

It’s because people like her don’t like hearing that facts are not feeling and hurt feelings do not change facts. The fact remains whether she likes it or not slavery is not a white phenomenon nobody ancestors regardless of skin color stand guiltless or victimless. The word slave actually comes from the slavs, who inhabited a large part of Eastern Europe who were all white were taken as slaves by the Muslims of Spain during the ninth century AD right now in Africa there still slave owners who are infiltrating the pain of slavery on people and the slave owners.
Absolutely right. It is the last refuge of the "no-hoper". Better and more efficient to change cultures that don't expect effort from the next generation or make decisions that trend toward success, than to celebrate lawlessness and stupidity and continuously reduce the effectiveness of police powers to combat crime through selective reporting and bias from complicit multi national corporate media that want to protect the funnelling of cheap labour into the west to continuously depress wages.

As a British man of Caribbean origin, Douglas is absolutely right. Reparations for what exactly? Slavery has been a part of history for thousands and thousands of years. The sins of the father are NOT the sins of the son.
Do we still hold Germany and Japan to the fire every day. No, it got sorted and we moved on. There must be many people with much more recent grievances that we have moved on from. Cannot undo history, it was very messy.
Yep all 6 thousand years of it seen a lot of wrongs by one civilisation to another. Whole world can accuse everybody else of being wronged if you go back far enough. Thats why the whole reparations thing to me is just absurd.
Douglas, you hit the nail right on the head! For goodness sake look at what our ancestors did to the Native Americans. Living on a reservation isn't FREEDOM. They had no choice.

Douglas Murray hit the nail on the head, and I'm pretty sure many people in Britain would agree with him. Will Paula be looking for an apology from the African countries that sold her people into slavery? Will Paula also be looking for reparations from those same African countries? I very much doubt it, because she knows full well that she would be wasting her time and it would be far easier in shaming Britain into paying up. I don't see why people who have never owned slaves should pay reparations to people who have never been slaves.

'I am so sorry that Douglas is bored'. Do you have to feel sorry for everything? I'm with Douglas when he says 'the age of grievance is over',because it is absurd to try and compare the moral and ethical standards of the west with,for example, the Islamic lands of the Middle East.For all of my life the Middle East has been astoundingly wealthy,but that wealth does not trickle down to the ordinary people,resulting in the desire to migrate to western countries where at least there is a chance of a moderately reaonable economic standard of life(I exclude refugees from war or oppressive zones).Being sorry in this context is a comforting feeling and a methodology for avoiding modern reality.
The problem is that people seek empowerment by being the victims, or being "offended" instead of by their own merit. I suppose it's less work that way.

Douglas Murray is thoroughly acquainted and knowledgeable about the great achievements and enormous gifts the West has given to the world. He makes no apologies, nor dwells in self loathing or guilt. I am with him in this matter. The fact that people go out of their waythese days, to a preposterous degree, order to lavish praise other cultures, no matter how miserably primitive and repellent they are, in order to score points in the game of virtue signalling, is a tedious and tiresome exercise, that has grown old, stale and cringeworthy. No other area in the world has created the vast storehouse of cultural riches produced in the West. And yes, it's one of the reasons so many desire to come to the West, in order to indulge in those riches, which are sorely lacking in their native countries.
As a Canadian I'm tired of it. Every year on CANADA day (July 1st) for the past ten years there are calls to "cancel" it. Because you know, we're horrible people. Things done hundreds of years ago by people not even related to me were horrible and yeah that sucks. Instead of celebrations I guess we should all cry and hate ourselves... I'm tired of it too. Its disgusting
By their standards, all countries should cancel all national celebrations since all were formed by war, genocide, and colonization. Things could be worse. I’m also Canadian, and my family is from Portugal. If one views Portuguese history, before Portugal became a country, there were indigenous people living there (the Celtic people and the Iberian people) who were essentially obliterated by Roman and Moorish invasions. The Iberian language and culture is gone. Much like the decimation of ancient Egyptian people and their culture and language (which would have been completely lost if not for the discovery of the Rosetta Stone). Those cultures weren’t given reservations or a chance to keep their traditions anything. I’m not minimizing the loss for the indigenous people of Canada, especially with the residential schools scandal, but the history of humanity is filled with these stories, except that in most nations, the indigenous were just wiped out and/or assimilated.

There was also a white slave trade by the wealthy Africans who came to Europe to take back caucasian slaves hundred of years ago, not many people know this.
There were many black people, enslaving other black people in the past, as Murray pointed out. Since she is a middle-class British black woman, there's a better than even chance that her ancestors were among those, and she has benefited directly from it.
Pay the decendents of Sir Issac Newton, a Britisher, who ended slavery by discovering the laws of physics and ushering in the industrial age to build machines that spared humans from hard labor.

People move one, including because in the end, we all are sinners and have skeletons in the closet. Everyone. And not has the right to pass that kind of judgments over others, including judgement on past generations, considering themselves as better than those past generations, completely ignoring the circumstances and context of their life.

It is called hubris.
As a Nigerian man living in Nigeria but keenly attentive to events around the globe, I am deeply appalled at some of the madness I hear my fellow Africans regurgitate on international media on matters like slavery and reparation, colonialism and migration. From my perspective, I don't even think any African with a shred of pride in him or herself should be running off to Europe to escape the disgustingly hard living conditions in Africa. Yes, there is wholesale misgovernance, there is corruption and decay everywhere one looks, but remember, we hurled the same Europeans out of our shores claiming we were adults enough to manage our own affairs and govern ourselves. It didnt take long for everyone to see all of that was BS. But now guess where "our tired, our poor, and our huddled masses" troop to: it is to the same Europe that we thumbed our noses at not more than a half a century ago. I have told as many as would care to hear me that we Africans are mighty lucky I'm not European else I would've driven every last man-jack migrant back with the helpful advice to go back to their god-given land and to run their affairs there. The fact that the white man in trying to make amends (though I wonder what for) has flung open his doors, is no justification to subject him to such discomfort in his own god-given land. We all know what would've happened to any migrant doing the same any other place in the world. Our arrogance and temerity when we should be meek and compliant in another man's land is what kills me. And I must repeat that every black African migrant in Europe is mighty lucky I'm not European else they would've learnt a lesson in manners by now.

Great. We're not going to make Democrats pay because they historically enslaved people to run their southern plantations are we?
Actually its worse than that. That "past" isnt even properly understood because when you actually look at how the UK ended slavery for itself and many other countries by force its something to be very proud of
@user-SubvurzIV how many times are you going to move the goal post and redefine what words mean in order to suit your social agenda? When the "prison industrial complex slavery" is ended, what is the next "slavery"? "Low wage slavery"? "Not enough paid leave slavery"?
The only slavery that persists in the Western world is weak minds being shackled to an ideology that's only acceptable to someone without the capacity or moral integrity to take accountability for their own lives. No one is coming to save you, and no one should. Can't provide value to the village, don't eat at the village table. End of discussion.
@user-SubvurzIV Is that your alternative history as taught by you ? If anything the prison system in the Uk is too soft, too many crimes are ignored and sentencing too short mainly because they have too few prison spaces. By Disparity i assume this is another example of what we have been talking about ? Victim culture, self pity ? Lol I hate to break it to you pal, if most of the people committing crimes are one ethnic group or another then they are going to deservedly "dis-proportionally" dominate in prison.

She had no other option tbh, her argument was owned and had no comeback.
It’s because people like her don’t like hearing that facts are not feeling and hurt feelings do not change facts. The fact remains whether she likes it or not slavery is not a white phenomenon nobody ancestors regardless of skin color stand guiltless or victimless. The word slave actually comes from the slavs, who inhabited a large part of Eastern Europe who were all white were taken as slaves by the Muslims of Spain during the ninth century AD right now in Africa there still slave owners who are infiltrating the pain of slavery on people and the slave owners.

Yeah, because imprisoning people you disagree with always works out well.
That’s where they belong
Douglas Murray is a hero, she had nothing after it except keeping on, because she makes a whole career out of it.
Why the hell should we apologise for something we weren't guilty of?!
because we're hopeless pu****s???!!
ffs people, how about standing your ground?!
we have NOTHING to be ashamed of. history is brutal. life is brutal. and the world is NOT your mom.
Well there is one argument that you’re living the lifestyle you are today on foot of previous slavery, invasion and theft of land etc. England wouldn’t be what it is today without it. That said, I think it’s wrong that the focus is always on the same countries when others did it too.
Would people that identify as Democrats ever apologize for their kind enslaving people to keep their southern plantations running?😢
@@BASSER81 How far should we go back in time back? You could also say that we are living the lifestyle we are living today because large meteors hit the planet.
Yeah well have to go back to the ice age ffs lol
'I am so sorry that Douglas is bored'. Do you have to feel sorry for everything? I'm with Douglas when he says 'the age of grievance is over',because it is absurd to try and compare the moral and ethical standards of the west with,for example, the Islamic lands of the Middle East.For all of my life the Middle East has been astoundingly wealthy,but that wealth does not trickle down to the ordinary people,resulting in the desire to migrate to western countries where at least there is a chance of a moderately reaonable economic standard of life(I exclude refugees from war or oppressive zones).Being sorry in this context is a comforting feeling and a methodology for avoiding modern reality.
The problem is that people seek empowerment by being the victims, or being "offended" instead of by their own merit. I suppose it's less work that way.
Actually, it IS probably harder! It takes a LOT of energy to maintain that false 'rage', day in, day out!
The victim card seems to trump all others...for now. But I sense old whitey's starting to get fed up with this crap.
The problem is BAD government that even listens to this crap!
yea because Australia/Australians have everything off of their own merit
right 🙄
the delusion is real
Comes with that race sadly. They haven’t accomplished or invented anything of note and never will. I wish we could just be done with them altogether. Our countries would certainly benefit
Douglas Murray is right about all of it, AND we are so sick of the constant talk about this subject.
We don't give af. I'm sure most of the slaves were sick of being in bondage for hundreds of years too.
you can never do enough to placate the Blacks. The hypocrisy is the wealthy entertainers do not go back to the ghetto.
@@taroman7100 Reporting you, racist.

Douglas Murray brilliantly expressing what every civilized European is thinking.
@DouglasMurray is not brilliant. You’ve been fooled by his fake Etonian accent. He is completely ignorant about payments still being made to European countries for ending slavery. Do your research.

Just followed Douglas Murray on twitter. His speeches are compelling and a therapeutic antidote to all the nonsense we are forced to endure.
I will NEVER in my life get an apology for the enslavement of Europeans by North Africans for galley slavery.
NEITHER am I entitled one, I was never a galley slave and nor was anyone close to me.
FINALLY SOMEONE SAID IT! THANK YOU DOUGLAS MURRAY YOU LEGEND!!!!!!

Douglas Murray is thoroughly acquainted and knowledgeable about the great achievements and enormous gifts the West has given to the world. He makes no apologies, nor dwells in self loathing or guilt. I am with him in this matter. The fact that people go out of their waythese days, to a preposterous degree, order to lavish praise other cultures, no matter how miserably primitive and repellent they are, in order to score points in the game of virtue signalling, is a tedious and tiresome exercise, that has grown old, stale and cringeworthy. No other area in the world has created the vast storehouse of cultural riches produced in the West. And yes, it's one of the reasons so many desire to come to the West, in order to indulge in those riches, which are sorely lacking in their native countries.
If this is the case then is Africa going to chip in for selling those slaves 🤔
As a Canadian I'm tired of it. Every year on CANADA day (July 1st) for the past ten years there are calls to "cancel" it. Because you know, we're horrible people. Things done hundreds of years ago by people not even related to me were horrible and yeah that sucks. Instead of celebrations I guess we should all cry and hate ourselves... I'm tired of it too. Its disgusting
I’m sick of the shit they’re pulling in Australia
I am sick of being told Britain is shitty. I am proud of my country (mostly)! Sending admiration and respect to my Canadian and Australian cousins 👋
By their standards, all countries should cancel all national celebrations since all were formed by war, genocide, and colonization. Things could be worse. I’m also Canadian, and my family is from Portugal. If one views Portuguese history, before Portugal became a country, there were indigenous people living there (the Celtic people and the Iberian people) who were essentially obliterated by Roman and Moorish invasions. The Iberian language and culture is gone. Much like the decimation of ancient Egyptian people and their culture and language (which would have been completely lost if not for the discovery of the Rosetta Stone). Those cultures weren’t given reservations or a chance to keep their traditions anything. I’m not minimizing the loss for the indigenous people of Canada, especially with the residential schools scandal, but the history of humanity is filled with these stories, except that in most nations, the indigenous were just wiped out and/or assimilated.

Douglas is a gem. He always nails it.
You can only apologise for what you’ve done in your lifetime, not a time we didn’t live in.
💯Agree, I’m sick and tired of the Paula’s of this world
@@janbrown9195because your kids are not being shot down in the streets for no reason, your continent you should call home has not been pillaged to make someone else's rich. The only after effect of slavery you have witnessed is the spoils of it. We are meant to forget what happened and just move on, let you guys whitewash history again make it look like it's just normsl because that's just what everyone was doing. Imagine if a Catholic priest felt up your child and when you went to complain to the Pope he says, well it was a long time ago, all the priests where doing it so you should just suck it up and move on. Are we still not getting enquiries and apologies for Hillsborough disasters, the head of the police force then wouldn't be the same guy as now would he? Institutions and nations have to be held accountable when they carry out such hineous acts. I guess you think the Jews should move on aswell because Hitler is dead now and it was a different time we didn't live in?
But then we shouldn't benefit from that time period either.
@@Noblility - Explain how 'we' are benefiting from that today. And explain why only white people should not benefit from it as everyone who lives in the UK profits from its history just like inhabitants from every country in the whole world profit form their respective histories.
British looted our country India for 300 years. I don't want people who are living in England right now to appolize for it beacuse they are not there and I was not there stop with virtue signalling it is disingenuous.
I don't get the whole apology thing like it makes no sense to apologise for something you had absolutely no involvement in.
Exactly ever since our governments apologised unnecessarily thieve dickheads have been coming out of the woodwork and causing trouble
Or, be apologized to for something that never happened to them.
Because once we do, you know what is next…..
And yet today's British taxpayers, who had no personal involvement with slavery, were on the hook until recently for paying off British public debt incurred when the government compensated slaveowners in order to abolish and set slaves free. Murray knows this but such historical facts would get in the way of his grifting.
She wants ppl that never owned slaves or weren't alive to apologise 😅😅😅😅 shes insane
Douglas Murray is an underappreciated gem. If you like him here I'd really recommend his books too.
Absolutely! Loved his madness of crowds book.
Yep! I have three of his books (and a dictionary for reference when he uses words that I've never come across).
Douglas Murray is an addiction I do not require treatment for. I appreciate his persona and views very much.

@@eugenengufor4255 Go talk to the ancestors in Africa that sold them. Take your problems to Africa and see if they will give you what you seek because we are sick and tired of hearing it.
@@eugenengufor4255no doubt work is a painful thing for some ethnic groups, but guess what - no one gave Europeans their wealth, they created it themselves. And if it was not for collonialism, Europeans would probably be even wealthier (maintaining colonies overseas was often a net cost for a country like England).
Well said Douglas, at last someone speaking up for common sense. Douglas just tells it like it is, he’s absolutely right
He's splendid Douglas. Thank God for his voice.
I'll pay reparations when they show me their lash and shackle scars, trying to leech off those who did actually suffer is the most disgusting and shallow thing imaginable.
Think you will find that those subject to slavery have died. They would be 170 at least
Uh, what about the hundreds of thousands still alive today day that lived under Jim Crow? You're nothing but an arrogant clown who probably thinks we're in an equal society. Get a clue.

Gotta love Douglas Murray spot on everytime.🇬🇧
Can't wait till the flag of britain gets censored cuz it has a history of colonization
First comes apology, then comes guilt and then the money starts flowing to these suffering liars. It's about getting undeserved reparations. It's always about the money!
Agreed it's greed.
Then there’s an industry built up around dispensing the money. And soon those getting paid start to see racism everywhere. And those hoping to get paid start siding with those alleged victims.
"I''m a victim! Give me money!"
Exactly the attitude of these feckin people
Well said Douglas saying very eloquently what
most people think
She is only saying that because she can't face the truth..
Don’t Judge our Ancestors’ Actions by Today’s Standards, you should be learning by the past to make sure that the bad actions aren't repeated. Well said Douglas Murray.
