    While I can resonate with some part of your script, I feel you were disingenuous talking about Africans not being a part of the slave trade. Every African empire was built on the backs of slaves, and in our interactions with the foreigners, we traded them off for the items they produced.
    At the feverish peak of the global slave trade, Africans were kidnapping one another and selling them off to slavery. That was the story of Queen Nzinga of Matamba and Ndongo, Joseph Cinque, and many more.
    You need not infuse lies in your story to make Africa look even more victimized. It's already apparent what the colonialists did.

      I don't think he was trying to claim slavery was not a part of pre-colonial african society, just that it was not the same kind of extreme racialized slavery of the atlantic slave trade, and that trying to conflate the two by simply saying "well black people enslaved other black people too" is fairly disingenuous.
      Of course all empires did and do employ slavery of some kind or another.

      @@elowin1691 0:06 literally says that this idea is a lie right here.... ironically, some african kingdoms, like the congo, were very rich off the slave trade, and if they had done anything but trade slaves, and made other economic investments with that money, they could have been a very powerful and long lasting kingdom.
      they were so wealthy from slavery, and intelligent (as much as you can be about trading human lives) about it too, they would hold back slaves until the harvest season, until europeans were really willing to pay up for them, then release them for the increased prices all at once. with all that wealth, they could have done anything, or atleast tried. and much like how oil states today only do oil, all they did was trade slaves, until europeans stopped buying.

    • @raynebow5289
      @raynebow5289 2 роки тому +102

      "...the disingenuous idea that 'black people' sold 'black people' into slavery. I frequently speak about this oversimplification as we cannot apply 21st century pan-African concepts to 17th or 18th century peoples. The overwhelming majority of African people back then identified in full with their own culture and linguistic group, and not by skin color or phenotype. So what's been implied by that statement is A-historical at best."
      You're coming at the human historical phenomenon of slavery with a 21st century, European-influenced perspective. It's one thing to say that slavery existed in wealthy, often capitalistic empires in some pre-colonial African countries. It's one entirely different thing to say that "black people enslaved black people". This concept of "black" was completely foreign to people living on the African continent before people invading several parts of the continent sought to psychologically, socio-culturally, and religiously dismantle the idea of a person living on the African continent, reducing them to subhuman and of a cerain color: black. There was no global, traumatized collective of "black people" who strived to pick up the pieces of the overwhelming thousands-if not millions-of African cultural norms, religions, and languages back then. That is now. And your perspective is now. Take some time to listen to his words before you bring out your thoughts and dilute the truth. The only "victim" of this narrative is the person who insists that history should be simplified because our ancestors "did bad things too". The African continent is too big and diverse for that.

But they never say that Africa created the outline of how to be a modern human being, africans have been exploring the earth since waaay back before we considered ourselves modern humans. and somehow they consider africans nomads and shit.

    Having grown up in Africa, I can testify that my (previously held) racial inferiority thoughts were rooted from other black people around me telling me whites are more superior. We were raised by our black parents who themselves never experienced slavery or such, that whites were more important, thence we had to watch our conduct towards them. And how we address them was to be different and submissive towards white people. And like you said, its an idea that has gradually dissipated, but its residual effects still linger. For instance here in Zimbabwe, the Shona slang word to refer to your Boss is MURUNGU, which directly translates to WHITE PERSON, and we even use MURUNGU on the blackest of Bosses lol...I have to say, I have no internalized or outwardly expressed hate or malice towards white people, I love them just as much as I love my fellow black brothers cause to me, race doesn't matter, you just have to be a good person. Anyways, love the videos man, very insightful and educative. You even taught me something I didn't know about the Great Zimbabwe ruins. Thanks a lot.

      I've had meetings with my high school History Teachers and Social Studies teacher why are we only learning about Martin Luther King whom I named my son after. Why do we learn of the KKK in school and not the Black Panthers a white teacher said the Black Panthers were short lived!! I grew up in a pretty racist place where in school I was a part of black population that was less than 1 percent. I would be be called a ninja any day then they would try talk to me cuz I use to be extremely light skin you could see the veins in the side of my head. I was almost raped one night he offered rides then one day the guy jumped out to attempt me to force me in the car then my mom came with my big Dog Apollo. It was night time I was taking a driver's class. There was always something going on. My drawn out point is they told us our African History is too extensive they didn't have time to learn all of our history. So they taught about mostly peaceful black people except Malcolm one of my son's name sake's. It was hard growing up in Lansdowne in Baltimore County in Maryland where they were still burning crosses when I was in school.

    The opening of this video is very odd. You seem to be forgiving or provide an out for the African tribes that captured and sold slaves just because they were a different culture of African tribe. That way of looking at things would also completely forgive/provide an out for the Europeans that bought those slaves.
    The trouble with trying to separate the tribes into different cultures back then is that the modern western world does not do that. With many movements broadly stating "black lives" or "people of color", which groups all black people together regardless of their origin, and this allows anyone to do the same, including when they we talk about the past when some groups enslaved others and sold those slaves to Europeans.
    There are some great and fascinating African civilizations without a doubt, however most of the well known ones can't be separated from slavery, like pretty much all civilizations from the past.

      Americans treated black slaves worse than their livestock, as they were seen as vile, not human, or not worthy to be considered human because of their skin colour. There was a hatred and anger towards them, hence the atrocious and torturous acts of cruelty, and hence the enjoyment many slave owners took from inflicting pain and torture.
      African tribes enslaving eachother was merely just animals fighting for their and their offsprings success and survival. Americans enslaving black people was about racism. That's why it's problematic and disingenuous to say "black people sold their own kind into slavery".

    I would like to hear HomeTeamHistory and Thomas Sowell (senior fellow at Stanford University's Hoover Institution) discuss the disingenuous idea that black people sold other black people into slavery. Slavery was an acceptable institution throughout most of human history, and Africa was no exception. Long before the Europeans on the west cost and Arabs of the east cost arrived Africans were fighting each other and taking slaves from each other. In this regard their history was no different than the rest of the world. Neither the Europeans or the Arabs traded exclusively in African slaves. The Arabs were particularly fond of light skinned slaves. The native American nations (tribes) were highly advanced for the time and fought each other and took slaves from each other well before the European settlers arrived. The plight of Africans as slaves in American and the African slave trade is in no way unique to history.

In the Caribbean students are taught Caribbean history first, with the Europeans clearly illustrated as invaders and the Africans clearly drawn as captive and eventually freed immigrants. The teaching of American history should start with the Native tribes and move out from there for a full context, with the wider world history - not just European - brought in.

    Greetings to you! My great grandmother was sold to a chief in the Kpelle tribe l, she was also pregnant with my grandmother who also grew up a slave. I asked my mother " Why?" She said they treated widows bad in those days and some people were sold for a bag of salt. So my ancestors were a part of African slavery. The Europeans were selling each other too...they forget to mention that.

    Man this is deep! There are so many inconsistent ideas about “Africa “that have followed me my whole life. They followed my mum while she was Growing up in Uganda. They followed my grandmother, my great grandmother and others in my family of Ugandan heritage. That due to the tone of skin colour (because there’s only one skin colour in Africa apparently) we have been singled out as needing saving from ourselves Is a great injustice. So many of the horrors that have been perpetuated on the diaspora of Africa can indeed stem from the barbarism of religion.

      I work in healthcare and 15 years ago, I had heart to heart conversations with the women I worked with about straightening their hair. I remember saying to them; 'you attend church regularly and claim you embrace God.' They would shake their head's and agree with the statement then I would counter with; 'then why are you straightening your hair?' They would give me every excuse for why they did it, but my response to them was that they defiled the idea that they were made in the image of God if they embraced the straightening of their hair for any other reason but fashion. Anyway over the past 15 year's, they have gone from stick straight presses and relaxers to cornrows, box braids and everything else in between... and it is a beautiful sight to see.

      Matathias, brothers and sisters have been programmed to call each other "N*gga" and "b*tch" and "hoe." And if you try speaking to them, as I have periodically, they may listen or they may make an excuse or get angry. But when they walk away, they're surrounded by friends, family, and a culture of ignorance that inundates them in such terms, so they most-likely revert back to using these terms again. The best way to get delivered from such nonsense is to have a divine revelation and born again experience. Without God, we're lost on so many levels. (John 3:3,5, 2nd Corinthians 5:17.)
