A Frank Look At Britain's Role In The Slave Trade | Britain's Slave Trade | Timeline

- Gold, Silver & Slaves looks at how the business of slavery was a case of slave-trading by complicit Africans, fuelled by the greed of African kings.
This is the untold story of the greatest slaving nation in history. Up till now, Britain’s place in the history of slavery has been as the country that abolished the international slave trade.
Britain’s Slave Trade reveals the shameful truth behind this liberal facade, showing how the economic, social and cultural life of Britain would have been unrecognisable without slavery. Britain’s Slave Trade explains how a middling European power transformed itself into the ruler of the waves, tracing the impact this had on the British way of life and taking in the Industrial Revolution, the beginnings of Empire and the birth of modern racism along the way. It also unearths startling evidence showing how many families that think of themselves as ‘pure’ English stock are in fact descended from slave ancestors.

Queen Isabella expelled all the Jews to St Kitts, Barbadus,
and to a place called Juda in Africa which became the slave coast.
They all joined in, who are the nations mentioned though out
the bible, Moab Edom Turks Meads .
Africans did not sell their Africans there are
over 2000 different tribes. They sold the Israelites.
What people on Earth do not know their own history
or where they come from now called African Americans

PSALMS 83 / 2-8 .......ALL NATIONS AGAINST HEBREWS
2 See how your enemies growl, how your foes rear their heads.
3 With cunning they conspire against your people;
they plot against those you cherish.
4 “Come,” they say, “let us destroy them as a nation,
so that Israel’s name is remembered no more.”
5 With one mind they plot together; they form an alliance against you-
6 the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, of Moab and the Hagrites
7 Byblos, Ammon and Amalek, Philistia, with the people of Tyre.
8 Even Assyria has joined them to reinforce Lot’s descendants.
***Shameful and they hold themselves not guilty.
but their judgement will come back upon their heads***
JUDAH IS WAKING UP.

11 therefore as surely as I live, declares the Sovereign LORD,
I will treat you in accordance with the anger and jealousy
you showed in your hatred of them and I will make myself
known among them when I judge you.OBADIAH 1 - 15

As you have done, it will be done to you;
your deeds will return upon your own head.
Timeline - World History Documentaries, I really dont mean you personally because you have put this on you-tube. i did learn from this video as it backs up other video's that have been so called white washed. thank you.
Wow im impressed
Yo
I can't believe that im about to cry
This was good and long overdue. I'd also like to see a documentary on the African kings that sold women and children to Arab enslavers. The African-Arab slave trade has lasted nearly 1500 years.
And the Arab trade was apparently significantly larger...17-18 million Africans, I've heard. And possibly treated "worse," if that's even possible... Most men castrated so there's not the modern resulting populations present in Britain and USA
Nobody ever sold women nor children exclusively.
I’d like to hear that too. Interesting history!
Its a hiax never happened
and it still continues today
Yes, Africans need to take accountability of the slave trade... I'm an African (Ghanaian) myself and aware of the Truth
Well learn your history...
Yaa Asantewee
I love how this guy states that he's from Ghana but he's not the same Ghana people that was supposedly selling people in back of the day this f**** doesn't know either
People with a set of lips to get on UA-cam and say anything I guess
Truth, slave trade existed before Europeans came to Africa people sold other people from different Tribes.
In Nigeria, my grandmother would tell my sister and me stories about how it was widely known in her days for them to "behave" or be sold.
That's so sad
Exactly I remember this in Ghana. Yet people say it was just white Christians the killed and took slaves. My Grandfather would tell me that I'd be sold if I was in their time. Ghana especially has blood on its hands too.
What is on the streets and unemployment lines by choice in some developed countries makes that an attractive option for social progress
Arochukwu confederacy were prolific slave traders
Wow
It seems like a large portion of the world's population either forgot things happened this way or don't want to admit it.
@Danny Archer Thats certainly the way it seems. They don't like actual history because it doesn't fit their narrative. They want so badly to be the victims they are willing to ignore facts in an effort to create a fictitious history that supports their liar's narrative.
They love to hold on to the tired excuses for their individual failures. It's a lot easier then looking in the mirror
The way you are saying it is like no slaves was ever taken by force
@@glm6928 I think we both know that is an illogical line of thinking. Many were certainly taken by force. This is called a 'given' which indicates a point of information that need not be pointed out due to the fact that all parties acknowledge the point. Worry less about presentation and more about logical discussion.
@@boostjunkie2320 I see that more often than not amongst conservatives.
As an African-American, I've always known we participated, but hearing these precise details actually breaks my heart
You have to keep in mind that the division between people based on color was not yet in place. Meaning the Us and Them idea that paired all Black people into one group and all White people into another is a modern concept. Rather English people hated the French, the Spanish, the Dutch, and definitely the Irish too. Europe was not a continent where everyone bounded over being White, so why should Africa have done so? while being three times as big. The WE experience was based on those belonging to the same group of people bounded by religion, traditions, culture, language, and self identification- not by color. These were "their own", not a whole other set of people located days away without any shared characteristics, other than appearance. Racism didn't cause the slave trade, but the Slave Trade laid the grounds for racism to flourish.
Participated??? Africans started it! They prospered and got rich from selling their people to the white men...
I used to believe this whole narrative of Africans sold Africans that Europeans were only at the coast. Then I read of the atrocities of the Congo how King Leopold forced Villages to gather rubber for them, or how the Kenya’s were stolen and the natives where forced to pick cottons. Ask yourself would the Europeans have left without filling their ships with people?
I'm pretty sure that local tribes did not capture millions of P.O.W while they had their backyard squabble.
These narrative of African participation on the slave trade is factually incorrect and a means for European to justified and create a dissatisfaction between folks of African descendant. African did trade within our respective regions and lived in harmony before the European and Arabs came and disturb our homogeneous society for their capitalist gain.
So this is what it looks like when adults have a conversation about a tough subject.

Doing everything possible to ensure they would never be able to return home EVER even in the future to find their family. And ensuring that the Europeans would think that is ok even to this day.

Until you have two dollars more than white people then they will steal your money, land, and people. African people and land. Then the free labor labor and then the looting from freedman's towns. Then the stealing of the black farmers' land today.
I am very happy to hear we finally acknowledged the actions of our own Africans are also accountable. The fact is there are aware that their own people became a bargain for themselves. It’s the same now - we fight against each other
I said the same thing one time in my sociology class and the teacher shut me up… she did not wanna hear what I said.
Its very possible that those "Africans" are not actually your people. Same way there are dark skinned people everywhere and many are not defined as Africans (India for example), it seems plausible that these African "Kings" sold people (a portion at least) who they felt very much opposed to culturally and genetically. Just food for thought sis, Shalom.
Afrikans NOW don't Know Their HISTORY. The white scholars managed to Brainwashing the Afrikan people.
Afrikans Made to believe that afrikans sold themselves to the europeans AND arabs.
We blacks easily accept to be deceived without asking ourselves questions
Why should you believe a story told by the enslave us? I just don’t understand my people. Use your head to think
"The European's moral restraint evaporated under the African sun" - devastating, and true.
The Europeans had so few morals to melt.

Around 20 years ago, there was an hour long History Channel program titled "The African Trade," which was very informative as they went back to Africa with a group of Americans and interviewed African historians and scholars about the history of the African slave trade that has been around for 1,000 years. The Americans were shocked and many started crying when they learned about entire truth, since they only knew their history from "ROOTS" and they quickly realized that they were lied to. That History Channel show has not been on the air ever since.
Is there any way to view it?
Something isn't right. Africa was trading slaves for iron... lemme think about it. Mineral rich Africa was trading with a small Bristol? Lemme think about it
I remember the program, it was aired also here in Finland. The Americans were shocked when they heard that their ancestors had been sold as slaves by their fellow Africans. I think it was this program: ua-cam.com/video/i6Z90OkToKs/v-deo.html

At 38:33, Bravo to the ostentatiously affluent British lady who is apparently basking under the riches out of slave trade and who has the temerity to term her ancestor's sinful deeds as entrepreneurial. In no way subjugating and oppressing a slave under your ancestor can be termed skillful. Making them work in no way can be labelled as 'entrepreneurial.'
At least make an attempt or pretend to say what was done earlier out of sheer greed by your ancestor as wrong if not evil.
I waS DISGUSTED BY THAT !!!!!
I completely agree. I think it's so ridiculous and completely shameful that she applauds her ancestor and goes on about his "entrepreneurship" and "philanthropy" but blindly ignores his hands filthy from the slave trade.
I was disgusted and ashamed of her!!!
She would have to acknowledge that her lifestyle is furnished by the misdeeds of her ancestors, however being the privileged racist woman that she is won’t allow it. She has no soul.
"He was not a slave trader"......... eh, yes he was. .
This series speaks of my family. The Beckford family. I discovered this series while doing a genealogy study of my grandfather and his side.
It's not a great way to discover the truth about what my family was doing during this period of time
Its embarrassing and shameful and I have to say that I am extremely disappointed and ashamed of my history. I'd like to apologize for this atrocity of humanity. No one needs to suffer from that barbaric nature

But Europeans had known about Africans for centuries. The Roman Empire regularly traded with sub-Saharan kingdoms. The Moors often took European slaves off trade ships. They didn't just discover each other 500 years ago.
Yup all the lies about slaves being only European but the. Arabs took slaves off Cornwall and they also took slaves all over ! There have been slaves in Africa for hundred of years and the English sent Irish as slaves to America and convicts to Australia!
When the Roman's traded with africans...there wasn't any so-called "sub-saharan" 😳
During the Roman era Africa was a province on the North African coast inhabited by Berbers.
True. The man, Simon, who carried the cross of Jesus Christ was an African. Occurred on Roman territory and he was a free man and Roman citizen. It held a lot of status to be a Roman citizen.
@@habtamuneftenya6002 There was knowledge about Ethiopia. but not Ghana or these places.

Some Africans were kidnapped secretly from their community and sold as slaves in West Africa. Not all slaves were prisoners of war. Let the TRUTH be told.
Who is to blame, the dealer or the buyer? I say both have responsibility, but which is the lesser of the two evils? Is it possible to have a lesser of two evils? Surely evil is just evil?
Seems like the guy was justifying his relatives actions. 9:58. To me it's wrong. Two wrongs dont make it right. He took care of his ASSETS. . .give me a break.
One can also ponder on 'what came first' (as an answer to your reflection on who is the most evil). Then one can argu about the fact that 'need' are often CREATED. If you weren't offered, you wouldn't know that you need/want it.
@Ralo Johnson very true
right as in drug trade who is the worst the producer or the dealer
Agreed. They both are equally responsible. Both parties made money from it.

Tom, in this time of intense interest in the Vikings, I think it will become apparent how they took many Irish to become slaves far afield. Truth in history can take a long time to come out, but the truth is there - hold your head high.
Vikings took everyone as slaves, race and culture wasnt important. The roman empire took slaves of all races... The egyptians had slaves.. of any race they could get a hold off.. One thing is important to note though.. these cultures dont have slaves anymore.. BUT.. the african Tuareg tribes still have black slaves to this day and blacks all over the world disregard this fact.. when Black lives matter just not as much for black slaves in africa held by blacks. No uproar from black americans about blacks oppressing blacks (and even whites) in africa.. Its apparently alright except when a white man is involved.

Romans in Sub-Saharan Africa were a group of expeditions and explorations to Lake Chad and western Africa. These expeditions were conducted by groups of military and commercial units of Romans who moved across the Sahara and into the interior of Africa and its coast. They occurred between the first and the fourth century AD. The primary motivation for the expeditions was to secure sources of gold and spices.
John Penny was a slaver. He knew that his slave trading was wrong, that is why he wanted to hide that aspect of his wealth acquisition, and wanted to distance himself after gaining his wealth. He did not hide his other acts of commerce.

I learned about this in grammar school. It's sick to believe you can own another person, force them to work til death. I live in an area called Little Africa, in PA. Hundreds of family's came here for freedom, but it wasn't always like that. Slaved where owned here too, by black and white owners.

Let us as a one people rejoice in Love knowing we will NEVER repeat the same Horrible Mistakes.
but slave trade still exit in different forms nowadays.... actually, due to the foreign indoctrination like religion and politics, most Africans are still enslaved mentally to think everything black is of no value... hence their eagerness to despise their richly endowed continent, only to enslave their selves by travelling through the dessert and other means to Europe and Americas and some even to Asian and Arabia.

Very intersting story. So Bristol was one of the first to participate in the slave trade. And also that the industrial revolution in England is connected to transatlantic commerce of slaves
and that probably the first holocaust in history was the African holocaust. In that line
many fortunes that were made in the industrial revolution were originated in part in slave trade . It is known that slaves have been present during all the human kind history. Don't try
to place that guilt primarily in African societies saying that they also participated in the slave trade.

Thank you for keeping the comment section open. I love discourse- civil or otherwise
another issue is the singular term slavery. slavery in Africa does not equal slavery in America. no slavery system was like this. there needs to be another term for this type of slavery.
black people who were enslaves in America, are the most luckiest black people on earth
Lvdwig Von Klugeburg no thats not true... We had to fight to for humans rights bro💯 if we didnt fight we would still be slaves in america
DéVeon Winfree that’s not true. President Lincoln passed the law stating that there was to be no more slavory. There were good people back then. Did you not notice that there is northern soldiers in the war. There was people that stood up and said this is not right. Your ancestors were fight for and people died to do so.
DéVeon Winfree go watch some documentaries on Africa today and then tell me your not thankful to be living here today.
Kenya W another form of a beast.
Britain also sold Irish prisoners and Scottish Highlanders. There are still descendants of the Irish laves in Granada called "Red Legs".
John Newton was a slave trader He captained three journeys to West Indies
Then he saw the light He wrote pages and pages of detail of the horrors of the slave trade there ...He also wrote AMAZING GRACE How I know I a copy of his members diary entries etc all in a book I found in an antique shop ..
True this should be our National Anthem
Imagine they living as they think they are Superiors..so sad not thinking about there generation and what they may have to succumb to.. what's the sense of having the money when u suffering in your last days, if u get a chance to LIVE.. Sad 😔
Poor Pero! He kidnaps him from his family, takes him to wait on him, then dares to complain about his service?
Then they went and named the ugliest bridge in the country after him. Disgraceful!
He had a good life, his mistress was even saying send him home. Don't blame him. Bristol or carribean? Not much of a contest. I'd drink myself out of existence if I was given that choice.
Could it be he killed him and lied about his deportation? With such people, anything can be possible
He presumably never arrived, did the ship on which he was return?
TRUTH IS NOT IN THESE "PEOPLE"! They're going to lie until kingdom come.
Who is lying?
Point out the lie & provide your sources. The rich in Africa sold their people. Throughout history There was more than the African people as slaves.
@@ramolitaflores9661 Youre a bit miseducated. So dont try to educate anyone. "the rich in Africa sold their people" as if all involved were all one Kingdom.
@@MrNTR1 @MrKDis first don't need to educate anyone. The truth is the truth even if you dont like it. Africa still have slaves I'm sure it's not the poor African that is taking advantage of that. To your point that it's not " as if all involved were one kingdom, didn't say that either. Just like not all white people owned slaves .
@@ramolitaflores9661 I can tell you're a bit slow. Try re-read what i've written a few times. Lol.
Another attempt to take full accountability for their heinous actions and justify their true nature of stealing, killing and destroying
Manstealing is both taking and keeping the taken. This is what nations run by Christians did. Too they violated every law of enslavement in the evil treatment of infants to elderly they kept as property. Guilty before God and man.
Very informative video...
“We hate because we are taught to hate. We hate because we are ignorant. We’re the product of ignorant people who have been taught an ignorant thing which is that there are 4 or 5 different races. There are not 4 or 5 different races there is only one race on the face of the earth and we are all members of that race the human race but we have separated people into races so that some of us can see ourselves superior to the others. We thought it would work I guess it hasn’t worked. It has been bad for everyone and it’s time we get over this business. There is no gene for racism there is no gene for bigotry. You are not born a bigot, you have to learn to be a bigot. Anything you learn you can un-learn. It’s time we un-learn our bigotry. It’s time to get over this and we best get over it pretty soon. The ignorance of thinking that you’re better or worse than someone else because of the amount of a pigment in your skin. Pigmentation in your skin has nothing to do with intelligence or with your worth as a human being it’s time we get over that.” - Jane Elliot.
The lack of respect of the granddaughter of the slave trader is astounding! She calls him ADMIRABLE?? Wow. And the grandson of the other monster slave trader "We are sitting in the house he built" WOW. I mean they're a disgrace.
Just what I've been thinking... how can that university doctor speak about an exchange of 'equals? The more I learn about english history, the more I am ashamed of being english
@@colincampbell378 Ashamed of being English? What is wrong with you?
Julius Caesar enslaved British people, among other things. It was a different time and if Julius Caesar’s descendants would praise him I would understand
@@colincampbell378 The exchange of equals referred to the exchange between European and African slave traders.
@@colincampbell378 don't. It was the sign of the times.
I'm wishing I could sell my government right about now, though I'm sure no one would want to pay anything.
I am an ADOS woman. I appreciate this presentation - we need to see the fuller picture. I must also state that this is why I don't see Africa as "Mama" - she was terrible to her children. Yes, this is just another example of the global stain of sin covering all mankind. That said, real, ongoing repercussions exist because real love and sacrifice does not occur - even in the Church - to repair those damaged by this centuries-long carnage.
Carnage: the perfect description of'this whole 'scheiss' storm!!
@@marymeeks6680 - "Scheiss" storm! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ it!
Looking at the comments it has upset one or two people, but on the whole I think it was a good documentary. Corporations and share holders in far away cities making money from a trade they knew little about. To this day business buy goods made by more or less slave in the Xinjiang province of China and the consumers pay little attention how it is made and the suffering to others caused. I understand that there still could be 40,000,000 million slaves still in the world today. I have never been to Bristol, but as a result of this documentary I might give it a visit.
At the start of the program they say the Brits didn't know about the trade triangl As a Glaswegian we were taught at school about it. Glasgow/Liverpool or Bristol out to the Bight of Benin, people to the Americas and tobacco back to Glasgow, sugar to Liverpool.
This common knowledge to anyone who finished secondary education.
That they didn't completely gloss over west Africa's involvement was also refreshing.
Let all who were responsable take their share of the blame.
A follow-up program highlighting the East African route, and a third highlighting the north Africa and the gulf states involvement would probably be a revelation to most people.Look forward to that can of worms being opened
I beg to differ with the assertion predicated by this title. The slave trade was not initiated by the African Kings per se instead, they only found themselves as conduits for the trade. Paying homage to the superior firepower of their conquerors, they were obliged to offer the sacrifice of slaves for the salvation of their nations. I can aver here with unquestionable conviction that the African Kings/Chiefs were most certainly not the originators of the demand for the slaves who were the fuel consumed by the industrial revolution in Europe adjunct to also being conscripted as the cheap labour force for the aggressive extraction of raw material & pillaging of the resources in the pristinely-founded settlements in the new world.
That's not actually true. Until the Industrial Revolution Europeans did not have military superiority in Africa (yes, they did have gunpowder, but that was not enough to threaten African states). African Kingdoms were willing partners of the slave trade. Many African Kingdoms send ambassadors to Brazil, who travelled in the slave ships as passengers. One of first countries to recognize the Independence of Brazil was the Kingdom of Dahomey, the largest suppliers of slave. There is even a curious historical story, where a Brazilian slave trader recieved the sons of a Yoruba Oba (his slaving partner), so they could study medicine in the school of Bahia.
You are trying to run away from the blame knowing very well that you are the people who caused the terrible suffering of our ancestors. You came with guns threatening the African kings and forcing them to sell their people. You are evil just like your ancestors.
Can you imagine being born a slave (we already are just to a lesser extent) and dying a slave. Every second that goes by is being stolen by another man. Every second that goes by is you getting killed again and again and again by the man that bought you on sale.

It's ok guys. They were kept clean of ticks. It does not matter that they were kidnapped from their continent and taken all the way across the Atlantic because they were kept clean of ticks.
Basically the whole Royal family got a lot to hide starting with Queen Victoria and her cousin Leopold ii
Leopard II was down right evil. I didnt know he and Victorua were related. Related or not Leopard II is definitely not in heaven.
Starting long before Victoria
In 1974 I graduated high school. One of the classes I took was Black History & Sociology. We were taught about the slave trade. All slaves did not go straight from Africa to the U.S. shores. Basically wherever Europeans went slaves went. In March 2022 I got my results back from AncestryDNA and was a bit surprised. I knew about my African and Native American ancestry/ethnicity but was surprised to find that I also have ethnicity from Norway, England, Wales, Sweden and Denmark.
As a Bristolian with a Jamaican Father and English Mother, I am aware of the involvement of all. When I go to the uk in 2024( I live in Australia ) I will go to Pero bridge. Bristol has a wealth of history, sometimes it’s easy to forget what it was built on sadly .
Why is this video not Title: "Evolution of Evil" The British Empire.?
The British ended the slave in Europe. Look up the West Africa Squadron.
😂😂😂😂😂👍
Addison Welsh ended doesn’t mean they didn’t take part in it
Every nation in the world traded in slaves since the beginning of time, its not just unique to the British empire
Johnny Pickles : Yes but the British did theirs based on Colour of the skin.
There was human slave trading WAY before the African trade.
Exactly!!!! Omongst all cultures too!
Let’s not ignore the Global Human Trafficking‼️
Yea they try to act like only African people are at fault (black people) (or people of African descent/ ancestry)
This broke my heart, Gave the African nation any weaponry not to fight European power but to keep Africans fighting each other and that is what we see until now in Sudan and South Africa. This concept is still being used in our countries and foreigners only reap the benefits.
It made me very angry 😡 to see what my ancestors went through

Evil would always be in denial for the atrocities it has inflicted upon others.
Hence the reason as to why "Historical Records" were re-written by the oppressors
to justify their heinousness. As the late Southern African Freedom Fighter - Steve Biko
stated: "The most potent weapon in the hands of the oppressor is the mind of the oppressed."
"Economic necessity"...I've heard that somewhere else. please, no excuses!!!
Thanks for the documentary
How can these Toffs decedents be so casual and arrogant about their ancestors exploitation and crimes on humanity.
Wildkardofficial Yes! It's sickening.
Thats how they are am afraid, there still in denial of there wicked sick ways in Ireland and still to this day act superior to us. Slaverly was beyond cruel and inhumane 💔God bless
They don't really care, just like their corrupt ancestors.
Go to your local court room and see how the families of the guilty still support their family despite clear evidence of their guilt. It is how a lot of families act.
Money will do that for you. They can't face what really happened in all its reality without having to give up that ill-gotten gain, so, they deny and minimize. It's about reducing that congnitive dissonance just enough that they can keep the fancy house and the inheiritance.
The random whip sound effect 😂😂😂😂😂 come on
Lmaooooo
Life had different sounds effects then.
Not funny
And it's still happening, RIGHT N FRONT OF OUR 👀
A person must of had money to buy slaves. Greed and money influenced many people it seems. Thank you for this important information. This is terrible. How could anyone do this of any race.
To days human trafficking‼️
Human trafficking is still alive. It is still going on today! Everyone uses the word slave. They were not slaves; they were human beings that the whites and others brutally abused. They are God’s children; why keep referring to them as slaves; they were violated. A criminal action was committed upon them. The Africans are a victim of a crime.
@38:32 nauseating fool condoning hideous inhumane actions. Speaks volumes about her foul character.....
Axel Durman notice how she tried to remain calm while talking about slaves yet she can’t keep her body still. They know what they’ve done...
