History Channel. Will you be making another video explaining how Africans sold African slaves into slavery? Explaining how Jews often owned the ships and slaves in the new world? How Arabs probably enslaved 40 million Africans calling them "Zanj" and cut their balls off so they would not breed? How Arabs, Turks and north Africans enslaved white Europeans for centuries during the Ottoman and Barbary slave trade?

They exaggerated the numbers of the people brought here from Africa greatly. Most of the people forced into slavery were from the America's and The same thieves who stole the land are the narrator's of the story. Question Everything.

They will not teach this because this exposes generations of evil to many countries of the world. Very difficult to feel proud of your European heritage knowing you did this to so many nationalities and countries for so long., so it manifests itself in open racism, guilt will do that.
In school we never learnt anything like this. As my history teacher told me we only need to know the basic history of slavery and nothing else. I went to Ghana and went to Cape Coast castle and spend the day there and experienced what it was like for our ancestors. Rest in Peace our beloved ancestors, gone BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN!!
@@jeromebjoseph13 how are you gonna say that they didn’t teach me about slavery like they did in the video, yes they did. My teacher Mr. Davini (he was white) taught the class about this stuff when I was in 7th and 8th grade. I specifically remember he taught us EVERYTHING that was in the video. I have no idea what you’re talking about
I can't imagine,they would have to wait until they reach the shores when they docked the ship after two months then they bathe in the sea. That's inhumane and disgusting.
To my ancestors: Thank you for persevering and not giving into the temptations of death. Thank you for not jumping over. Had you given up, I would not be here today😔🙏
Bernie Rubber I’m aware that Africans have slaves, however that statement isn’t possible because my ancestors are no longer here obviously. In order for me to exist, my great x 4 grandparents had to have been brought on a ship to the United States as slaves, and they had children and so on. Yes some tribes in Africa owned slaves, but it’s a huge continent and there are numerous tribes, not every tribe owned slaves.
yes it is .. but demon spirit excited ..pre-flood by the spirit of the fallen angels mixing with human woman creating the Nephilim kings most died in the flood and now in the earth bonded ..and very real in out world .. these are the demonic spirit that is in all who souled their souls to the satans in satanic religions of the dark cult rituals of the fallen ones
@Harry Byrne your saying that but why did it happen in the first place ? even during the 50's - 70's there was still racism towards black people, how did nobody say this is wrong why are you doing it is beyond me
Yes it is demonic it’s also demonic the way their own brother and sisters sold them as slaves. Humans can be evil how can you sell one of your own kind knowing the fate that awaits them?
And how could you even consider purchasing a human being and treating them like some sort of animal and cause them so much suffering? I promise one thing, all those who who have suffered were saved and found eternal life with God, and I can’t say the same thing for the monsters who did it to them.
Zanique Hendrickson no i am with you On this on. I’ve always been hurt by the pass of slavery and that feeling will never ever go away I felt angry, sad, mad, gross out and my list goes on. It’s Traumatizing

I look at my son and daughter (mind you, I'm not of african decent) and when I read or see these things, I can't help but think about them and feel how absolutely soul crushing it must be as a parent to have had your children on board with you on something so hellish like that. Truly, humans can be the cruelest beings. I cant fathom the suffering of those people.
Massive Conn You are not a victim. The country does not despise you. You’re making a UA-cam comment therefore you’re actually pretty well-off relative to the rest of the world.
We are a great race and a strong race. Be proud of those that endured this cruel treatment called slavery. I thank God for all of them because their power and strength lives in us and we cannot let them down.
Coach Darren : Well said. It is hard for anyone of another race in today's society ( Americans) can use this as an insult to black Americans. But they do.
@@rexbelgicus9712 they did for centuries. Isnt that what this video is about? Only difference is when a black person says it YOU dont ever have to worry about them enslaving you. They say it to uplift themselves not to crush others.
A High school social studies teacher of mine told my class that you could smell a slave ship from 5 miles away. Many ship captains would chart alternate routes when they smelled these ships. They were called ships of death in maritime communities .

@@Shubham.Katyal no man you gotta think about the thousands maybe even millions of slaves that were kept in those conditions. No rotting, but the pain is still there I've heard this before from people who visit elmina
@@jakojii Are white people the only ones who ever had slaves? Are other races pure as the driven snow by comparison and have never committed equally as appalling atrocities? You have chill in your name. Try it sometime.
This is honestly so sad I stand up for human’s rights and believe everyone should be treated equally and fair. I truly hope that history does not repeat itself.
Makes me sad that any video about slavery seems to illicit so many comments such as "well Africans captured other Africans" and "well other people were enslaved" ask yourself why you feel the need to discredit the Atlantic slave trade, do you feel some sort of guilt? When you see a cancer ad, do you comment about how other diseases kill others?
I think a lot of it is done in defense, because nobody likes finger pointing. Both Africans and Europeans are to blame really, but its in the past and nobody living deserves the blame pushed on them because no one can really claim a real connection to a slave or slaver. Race is irrelevant and tis time for people to move on.
I don't know of anybody telling blacks to "get over" slavery. They could start making better choices and holding themselves accountable though. Not everything is the white man's fault.
I avoided searching ‘slavery’ on UA-cam for many years. I still can’t articulate my feelings about how my ancestors suffered this horror for generations and how they still triumphed above this adversity to play their part in making the US a great and powerful nation. Yet the story is far from over, if it ever will be…
If your first instinct after watching this video is to rush to the comment section and talk about some other peoples who were enslaved, you should probably ask yourself some tough questions...like, "Why don't I just sympathize with the story told, instead of bringing up some other enslaved people to try and compromise the experience of Africans in the Atlantic slave trade?
The answer is this (and I don't trust your intentions): "Because a lot of people use the actions of Dead People to push Racial & National Guilt onto those alive because of their race, as if it entitles them to treat others badly. They also appear to use it to try to demand more advantages or entitlement for more things. Secondly, those who suffered are also Dead People and won't benefit from my feelings. That's true isn't it?" So there you go. It is the manipulative intent that is the problem. Look up the corruption of Grievance Studies in Academia for more information. A recent Hoax/Troll that was done shows how corrupt it is. That - and the racist & unequal PRINCIPLES** they push - is the issue. **As opposed to fashion or ideology which justifies double standards to individuals.
I always find it ignorant when people say "no one today is affected by slavery". I'd argue my father's father was hanging from a tree, and his father a slave. I feel very much affected.
@@freckleheckler6311 ok Kanye, but let me ask you this...would my father reared me differently if he didn't live through the jim crow south and had a fair chance at education and employment? Would his father, have been able to better provide for my father, if he was able to keep his land or better yet been live throughout my father's childhood? I could keep going, but that'll be an exercise in futility. Seeing that if your ignorance has made you giddy enough to double dutch jump your way in to telling me about my family and choices, it'll also make you not understand. You're the type person thats tell people how to treat their family member as if you know the dynamics of the relationship. It's just as simple as cause and effect.
Legendaire Is that so wrong? To feel remorse towards the pain your people, your ancestors, and your family had suffered over the course of history and the past?

@@chibixzero this was less than 200 yrs what you mean? Thats lit like only a few dozen generations not even since the last slaves were still kept thats nothing.
As a 12 year old kid that is interested in history, slavery was the hardest topic to endure and learn. I cannot imagine how much pain and suffering they had endured through until the end, our ancestors should be recognized because of their strength. From the comments I have read below, I also cannot believe a human would do this to another human, it is truly barbaric. May our ancestors rest in peace and harmony, may they live another life where they were cherished. May they live a life that they deserve to be treated so much more than just property.
Wow, you seem very intelligent for your age. I’m 16, and I’m glad so many people share my interest in history, it’s one of my best subjects in school .

As a teacher I feel obligated to teach atrocities such as this one. We must never forget! However, we must be grateful to the sacrifices that other people have made in order to be where we are.
This made me feel so uncomfortable, but I'm glad it did. It means I learned something and I'm becoming just slightly less ignorant. Education helps combat ignorance
This makes my heart ache so bad and eyes fill with tears to think that this happened to my ancestors. Just estimating the maths it really isn’t that long ago! My grandparents are the grandchildren of slaves 😔
Trust me we blessed they wouldve never imagined how far we would come and are still going struggle to survive is in our nature from slavetrade to colonisation. We will survive by any means.
watching from Kazakhstan 🇰🇿 it is really heartbreaking, it made me so sad, i have watched videos about history of slavery actually we don"t fathom their pain, affliction . we must be grateful for our freedoms. Thank you for piece of knowledge . it was really informative and educative for me
This is such a sad tragedy. How can a human treat another human this way. It just illustrates that we are a sad lot. Unfortunately, it continues to this day. Slavery and oppression is everywhere. Please keep in mind color is only skin deep, we all bleed red. Judge a person by their actions not the color of their skin. When will we learn?

TheManInBlack Jean Julien Good point. While slavery is a part of black history, you cannot define a people by it. Where is the history of the culture, arts, foods, music, leadership etc.??
Lapis District and even with that logic, a real human wouldent harass any other creature like that even if you consider them human or not. ( not calling black people animals ) but why would you hurt a dog for example? That’s still in humane. There excuses are utter ridiculous

Rachael Nwaoha Money!!! slavery was a lucrative business back then, that’s why these guys did what they did. Terrible thing!!! We humans have done terrible things for money.
@Michael jf I know that the slavery existed long before the Atlantic slave trade. But the Atlantic slave trade was more long journeyful and painful. Islam allows slavery of infidels, slavery is still going on in the muslim world in different forms.
After watching Amistad and 12 Years a Slave, I have been watching the conditions on slave ships. I cannot understand how this evil was so widespread and considered normal. I just can’t imagine the pain, suffering, and the list goes on. May those souls of all those enslaved rest in peace and may the souls of all those who took part and actually enjoyed this, rot eternally.
I am British. And I also agree my ancestors must also have gone through such traumatic events. I would have gladly shared their suffering if I was born in that time.
Couldn’t stop crying while watching this. This is so hard to digest. That’s evil trying to wipe out our identity and heritage . Only love is capable of healing our souls.
Matthias D'Avila you mean it was the southerners who started the kkk and supported slavery, the failed democrats, luckily the smart and educated northerners rescued the African Americans Also political platforms changed so the northern republicans became the democrats and southern democrats became republicans
My family is British. And I would also have shared the pain my ancestors went through during this slave trade, had I been born that time. 🙏🏻 RIP all brave men.
Is it really a better life considering the ones who live in projects,the ones who sell their bodies to make rent,the ones that are addicted to drugs and with the injustice that is going today? The ones who lost their jobs and or life due to the rona? I could go on...

"I’m so grateful that the slaves didn’t drop and quit… Listen to me, The slaves said, We will live because one day we will become. We won’t always be slaves.

We give up!” We would have died in The Middle Passage."- Eric Thomas

Facts!
They didn't die.They are in heaven.
Bernie Rubber I’m aware that Africans have slaves, however that statement isn’t possible because my ancestors are no longer here obviously. In order for me to exist, my great x 4 grandparents had to have been brought on a ship to the United States as slaves, and they had children and so on. Yes some tribes in Africa owned slaves, but it’s a huge continent and there are numerous tribes, not every tribe owned slaves.
Panos Sarantos That’s typically what dying means. Dying is just the physical body dying, and some believe the soul is what goes to heaven.
This is absolutely DEMONIC.
yes it is .. but demon spirit excited ..pre-flood by the spirit of the fallen angels mixing with human woman creating the Nephilim kings most died in the flood and now in the earth bonded ..and very real in out world .. these are the demonic spirit that is in all who souled their souls to the satans in satanic religions of the dark cult rituals of the fallen ones
@Harry Byrne your saying that but why did it happen in the first place ? even during the 50's - 70's there was still racism towards black people, how did nobody say this is wrong why are you doing it is beyond me
Religion
Yes it is demonic it’s also demonic the way their own brother and sisters sold them as slaves. Humans can be evil how can you sell one of your own kind knowing the fate that awaits them?
And how could you even consider purchasing a human being and treating them like some sort of animal and cause them so much suffering? I promise one thing, all those who who have suffered were saved and found eternal life with God, and I can’t say the same thing for the monsters who did it to them.

Makes me sad that any video about slavery seems to illicit so many comments such as "well Africans captured other Africans" and "well other people were enslaved" ask yourself why you feel the need to discredit the Atlantic slave trade, do you feel some sort of guilt? When you see a cancer ad, do you comment about how other diseases kill others?
I think a lot of it is done in defense, because nobody likes finger pointing. Both Africans and Europeans are to blame really, but its in the past and nobody living deserves the blame pushed on them because no one can really claim a real connection to a slave or slaver. Race is irrelevant and tis time for people to move on.
Because the people calling liberals snowflakes are snowflakes as well.
A I thank you.
they respond that way because people very often try to lay the blame on all white people, duh

Moss Linden major facts
jmarks881 does your mother not give u enough attention boi?gtfoh
The answer is this (and I don't trust your intentions):
"Because a lot of people use the actions of Dead People to push Racial & National Guilt onto those alive because of their race, as if it entitles them to treat others badly.
They also appear to use it to try to demand more advantages or entitlement for more things.
Secondly, those who suffered are also Dead People and won't benefit from my feelings.
That's true isn't it?"
So there you go.
It is the manipulative intent that is the problem. Look up the corruption of Grievance Studies in Academia for more information. A recent Hoax/Troll that was done shows how corrupt it is. That - and the racist & unequal PRINCIPLES** they push - is the issue.
**As opposed to fashion or ideology which justifies double standards to individuals.

TheManInBlack Jean Julien Good point. While slavery is a part of black history, you cannot define a people by it. Where is the history of the culture, arts, foods, music, leadership etc.??
I’m still tryna figure out why ANYBODY thought this was ok‼️Evil evil!
They thought it was ok (atleast the ones who did it in the later years) because they were brought up to believe the Africans were not human.
Lapis District and even with that logic, a real human wouldent harass any other creature like that even if you consider them human or not. ( not calling black people animals ) but why would you hurt a dog for example? That’s still in humane. There excuses are utter ridiculous
MrNorthernSol that makes a lot of sense and can explain why old people call younger people soft. The more developed and peaceful A country is, the more humane it gets

Money!!! slavery was a lucrative business back then, that’s why these guys did what they did. Terrible thing!!! We humans have done terrible things for money.
Rachael Nwaoha it first stats with not believing slaves are human then everything else becomes much easier.
My Goodness I can't imagine the pain and atrocities....even watching gave me the chills 😭😭😭May God alone judge 💔
It’s a dirty dirty world that we live in
There is Good in this world too though
Slaves had a hard life on the ships, didn't know where they were going and what awaits them too.
@Kim jong un slaves didn't know about the land, work and plantations of their work.
@Michael jf I know that the slavery existed long before the Atlantic slave trade. But the Atlantic slave trade was more long journeyful and painful. Islam allows slavery of infidels, slavery is still going on in the muslim world in different forms.
@@mjsg8476 true, Kenyans and phillipino house maids are example, people who escaped tell horrible stories.
@@mjsg8476 plus both Middle East and Africa didn't have factories and plantations.
@Michael jf slavery was invented long before that though.
This is sickening.
After watching Amistad and 12 Years a Slave, I have been watching the conditions on slave ships. I cannot understand how this evil was so widespread and considered normal. I just can’t imagine the pain, suffering, and the list goes on. May those souls of all those enslaved rest in peace and may the souls of all those who took part and actually enjoyed this, rot eternally.
As a latino with full lips and a dark skin tone i realized that the only reason why im here is because of one of my ancestors survived this.
I am British. And I also agree my ancestors must also have gone through such traumatic events. I would have gladly shared their suffering if I was born in that time.

Matthias D'Avila you mean it was the southerners who started the kkk and supported slavery, the failed democrats, luckily the smart and educated northerners rescued the African Americans
Also political platforms changed so the northern republicans became the democrats and southern democrats became republicans
@Matthias D'Avila do keep in mind the Democrats are not what they used to be? Along with the Republicans.....
@Matthias D'Avila please do respond upon your ignorance!
To my ancestors that were enslaved. To my ancestors who revolted and stood up for freedom to give us this generation a better life. Thank you!
Bruh they can’t hear you
Yes for their courage faith and strong will a good white people who helped us along the way.
My family is British. And I would also have shared the pain my ancestors went through during this slave trade, had I been born that time. 🙏🏻 RIP all brave men.
Is it really a better life considering the ones who live in projects,the ones who sell their bodies to make rent,the ones that are addicted to drugs and with the injustice that is going today? The ones who lost their jobs and or life due to the rona? I could go on...
My ancestors were the slave owners?
And slavery is still happening today 😔
Emily Hughes fake news
Yeas its happening in Asia, they have a hierarchy
In America? no.
In other countries? yes.

Also in the middle east
Smh
I just don't understand how was this acceptable. How and why did this even happen?Who started slavery?It makes me so sad to know that people was treated this way .
@DOOMER yeah I know that it's human history but why was it acceptable for so long?
@@nettawyatt207 people saw it as a good thing back then
"I’m so grateful that the slaves didn’t drop and quit…
Listen to me,
The slaves said,
We will live because one day we will become.
We won’t always be slaves.
So today,
Although we’re slaves,
We’re going to act like we’re free.
And one day our children will be free.”
If the slaves would have just said,
“We quit! We give up!”
We would have died in The Middle Passage."- Eric Thomas
Wow, thanks for your post. Every Black person in the U.S. and Caribbean need to read this and digest it. We as a race of people have so much to live for. When we give up, with all the advantages in life that we have, would be a slap in the face to our ancestors. I'm sixty years old, lived and participated in the civil rights movement, and never heard this poem. I'm in happy tears right now.
That hits hard bro
2JZ 2JZ .. that’s deep.
But slavery never ended, it just changed its way to the banking system and taxes.
Jonathan wali Don’t forget the prisons
Slavery is nothing like taxes, especially in capitalism. Comparing being owned by someone and being able to make billions isn't right.
You’re so stupid
Just cause you cant pay your takes foesnt mean you have to say it's like slavery. You are fool.

Me: *Grabs popcorn and scrolls down to comments*
Disabling comments = lots of dislikes. And I've actually seen people go to their Channel go to the previous video and comment their comment about the next video that they just watched so didn't really do a lot of good to disable the comments.
