    Grew up outside of Raleigh in Wake Co.,our family beach cottage was in Emerald Isle, and I attended ECU as most of my family did before me. Great to hear this information on this platform. Can’t wait to dig into more! Thank you!

    As a descendant of the people enslaved on Davis island, it is an interesting perspective. Both sides of my family come from the Carolinas and Bristol TN/VA. These include native people, mixed people, etc. I know these people and have family stories. I will say that it is good that things are at least being discussed and researched.

    I’m glad I stumbled across this video. I grew up in eastern NC and later lived on Roanoke Island for a couple of years. The history of the area always fascinated me. I ran across Kevin’s book on Blackbeard years ago and agree with his assertion. I left NC almost 15 years ago, but still like reading history. Thanks for this video. I really enjoyed it.

      Hey Juanita! Thank you so much! Sorry for the slow response. I always get notifications on comments for my other UA-cam channel but I don't see the ones for this channel unless I visit the site. I'm glad you enjoyed the presentation. 🙏

    Thank you for being intellectually and historically, honest! There are too many blind fools and idiots who refuse to understand that the way people used to think in historical terms has changed, and that standards now do not compare to then. One must look at history, objectively, and in the context of that day Applying modern standards and thought to something that happened in history is morally and intellectually bankrupt.

    • @eastcarolinaroots

      Agreed. Chronological snobbery, just as C.S. Lewis used to call it. Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment! I'm glad you enjoyed the video!

      Its not snobbery to acknowledge TRUE History. Its was cruel and violent in the eyes of those oppressed, so why should we sugar coat that so that we get to feel good about the “new world”.
      Its Turtle Island.

      My 15X great grandfather came from England in 1634. He sailed into Massachusetts and remained there for a couple of generations until his grandson migrated down to eastern North Carolina. We have been Tarheels ever since.

    I heard a lot of white indentured servants from Ireland and Scotland in early 1800 to N Carolina. They were caught by pirates or the British and sent here.Did these indentured servant live with the black slaves at first?

    Circumcision was practiced by different indigenous people through out the Americas. The Aztec elite is an example. This does not mean it was learned from Jews or they were “Jewish Indians” as you imply here.
