      Reparations for what......? No one is or has been enslaved in America since America freed the slaves they purchased from the Africa. That was all over centuries ago. Look at lil wayne,50 cent, Oprah, LeBron James, PRESIDENT Obama, to name a few examples that if America had systemic racism would a Muslim be elected to congress? Would all the above people be billionaires? The welfare system has been engaging in reparations....... people just want free stuff and handouts, tell Oprah and LeBron and the Rock to donate a billion for an inner city. Its NOT about racism in America, its more about classism.....the haves and the have nots. And a lot of mass looting across the country (more free stuff) ifablack man can make it to the white house in a country with only 13% black.....well that kills the race issue. Morgan Freeman said everybody just stop talking about it because it doesn't exist. People just don't want to work hard and that goes for this whole generation not just black people. Reperations to people living in the best country. Slavery was in the middle east......go ask them see what they say and while you're at it say a prayer for all of the lives lost for our freedom. Reparations have been paid and this Author is blackwashing the past. The truth is the truth no matter how painful. So stop blaming white America because I dont owe you SHIT🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🤬🤬🤬🤬

    I'm like the previous commentor. I'm still learning Black History. My parents were born in 1951 and 1952 and didn't share any information about Martin King and being assassinated in Memphis, Malcolm X, or the Integration of Central High School and they lived in Arkansas. I missed so much. I don't know if "not knowing" was their fault or they just didn't want to know or care enough to know. I know my dad loves his Bible and taught my brother and I that but now I think he has conflicting views about that too. And my mom, well, whatever my dad says...goes. Just happy I came across your videos during covid, joined Knubia (yep, I'm a Knubian) and I'm learning so much. Now to buy this book but the bookstore in Arkansas is on the struggle bus lol I may have to do something about it. :)

  • @libertine40
    @libertine40 7 місяців тому

    People always leave out the enslavement of melanated Aboriginal peoples. Let's keep it real. The Eastern Woodlands tribes were the first enslaved by European immigrants and these were also the ancestors of many so called 'blk' people. They were sent throughout the Caribbean, S America, Europe and even *Africa* ('Saltwater Trade') - so imagine how many were recaptured and brought back? And who are their ancestors in those places they were taken? The Aboriginal peoples *also* knew how to build bridges, aquaducts and paved roads in addition to brick and log structures. They firmly established corn, tobacco, hemp and cotton as lucrative cash crops. The Spanish and British pirates destroyed many of the cities, built on top and/or repurposed construction that was already here, then claimed it as theirs. We must install the true *AND complete* historical narratives of what went on here in order to truly establish any justice for the transgressions of these systems of 'wyt' soopremaC.

    "We are a country of burglars
    The criminal enterprise that is the American system of government and economics and politics and how we watch that grow." @7:55
    I don't think this is correct, or healthy to teach.

    No, the statement about Australians is completely incorrect. I'm a New Zealand historian who has lived in Australia. Convicts were transported to Australia to serve out their sentences. This was due to an explosion in prison numbers due to the death sentence being repealed on a wide range of criminal charges. You can't just say things. If you don't know don't say it! Or say "I think . . . but I might be wrong."

    I would also count collegiate athletics as a form of redistribution. You have most of the revenues being generated by football and basketball and the money from those programs being used to cover scholarships for a million other primarily white sports that generate squat. In addition most of the coaching and assistant jobs have gone to white men. So if black player isn't drafted he is out on his own but the white athlete has a better shot at staying on as part of the coaching staff. Most of the money Deion generates this year even in his situation will go to the benefit of white people.

    Are you trying to tell me that a nation that created the largest empire in human history, that invented most of the devices that created the modern world, did not know how to design a house that would let in air, that did not know how to plant and raise crops, did not know how to be carpenters and blacksmiths, or irrigate, or build dams? And had to rely on enslaved people to tell them how to do it? I'm going to need A LOT of evidence to accept that. Can you imagine a Georgia slave owner being told what to do by his enslaved people? And your man said five minutes earlier the task of the enslaved person was to be muscle and work until they died. Make up your mind! That's like saying we Irish built the British Empire. No, we did not. We dug the ditches, carried the bricks, fought in the Englishman's armies, but we did not build it. We just supplied the muscle, the Englishmen told us what to do. We were LABOURERS. And so were you. The difference is was we got paid, and you didn't. We could quit the job if we wanted. You could not.

      who do you think brought over that technology? Could it be the people who built pyramids and aqueducts, paper and autopsies? The ignorance and arrogance of your comment is STUNNING!
