it's not about slavery , it's about free money
100%
Buying votes.
Greed that’s all it is, they think we are mugs.
And resentment of whites, falsely creating 'white supremacy' and 'victims'.
I've never known such hatred as there is now, courtesy of the compassionate woke mob.
gibs me dat
The victims of slavery were enslaved by fellow black tribes and sold to the European traders. They don't tell you about that part...
Exactly!
EVERYONE participated in Slavery back then. White, Black, Yellow, Red, you name it.
People need to open their eyes...
100% They don’t talk about the millions of white European’s enslaved by the Muslim Barbary pirates, who were African.
The European slave traders didn't want to leave the ships. Because there was no cure for malaria or the other disease's that they encountered there. It would be a lot of work to track down potential slaves and get them onto the ships. It was easier to buy them from other blacks. Which they did. They actually started buying slaves from countries in the middle east before they cut out the middle man and went to the African villages to buy them from other Africans.
They also don't talk about how the Arabs had the largest slave trade until Britain and the U.S's naval fleets took it on.
There is almost never mention of how many white people owned slaves, majority didn't.
Also literally never hear these "woke" people talk about modern day slavery still taking place in Africa, but I guess they need those children to mine the resources for their mobile phone batteries.
[EDIT] Commented before watching the video, seem he brought it up anyways.
The extent to which black tribes sold Africans to Europeans for slave trade was marginal at best.. Europeans owned all the ships, controlled all the shipping of slaves, and then created a form of chattel slavery which was a racialized, perpetual, hereditary form of slavery specifically for people of African descent which was, In my opinion the most brutal type of slavery in human history. Yeah, that part somehow doesn't get mentioned enough either.
The point of history is honoring the pain of our ancestors by not repeating their mistakes. They died so that we could prosper, suffer so that we wouldn't. Forgetting history is an insult to the pain of our predecessors.
Yep, things changed drastically once millenials started calfing.
That is so true... and the World need too bee ree minded abouth that...
@@linejumper8204 you mean gen-xers. millennials were the ones who started talking all this reparations bullshit. gen x spawned and raised them to be that way
No one alive today owes you or anyone else anything not even an apology! You are oppressed by ur own actions
I am British. My great great great grandparent died in a Victorian Workhouse, which had long been astablished as a form of slavery.
Now I'm confused. Should I pay reparations or am I entitled to reparations?....
.... Or maybe I should just move on 🤔....
If you're white, I'm pretty sure you already know the answer to your rhetorical question.
@@MisteryMan2000 😂... Slavery was ubiquitous until We ended slavery FOR THE WORLD.... We finished paying the bill in 2015.
First anti slavery law in the world was in England in the 11th century..
I suggest you read some. History, such as the Arabic trade which continues to today.
There are more slaves in the world now than ever. Look into the plight of Philippino women in Qatar, or the Indian slaves buried in Qatar's world cup stadiums.....
I can go all day with verifiable facts.....
@@MisteryMan2000 tell me you're racist without telling me you're racist....
You're the one judging people By the colour of their skin.... Not content of their character... Now remind me who said that 🤔
@@Rachel_M_ You missed my point entirely.
@@MisteryMan2000 you didn't make a point. You answered with an ambiguous rhetorical question. Nothing could be further from a point...
Points are pointed, and direct. Like the point of a needle, javelin or knife.....

And as he spoke, in the background the smug, know-it-all 19-year-olds, shake their heads in disapproval, play with their phones, talk amongst each other, with deaf ears to facts and truth.
Colleges are overpriced daycares for smug ideologues who get further indoctrinated by their woke professors.
Well as a rule.. children are stupid
They don't know how to think. They only know which slogans to support. The miseducation of children in public schools is not an accident. Unless parents wake up and remove their children from these indoctrination centers and actually study history, we cannot expect change.

When are the Arabs going to pay reparations to their slaves including those kidnapped from Cornwall?
That's not even mentioning their policy of castrating every slave.
@@casualcausalityy THANK YOU. I was going to talk about that. Just HOW black are the populations of Arab countries? The answer is not very. I used to work with a Turk. Turks are essentially Mongols. Turks nowadays are Greek/Russian/Anatolian. What happened to a thousand years of black slave trade? WHERE are their children? The castration operation may have offed two out of every three who underwent it. Use of massive numbers of black slaves for agriculture resulted in a massive slave revolt. Slave soldiers were used all over the Arab world. The Turks' elite troops were Slavs and Greeks enslaved as children. Black slave troops were used in Spain and North Africa but not elsewhere, not in big numbers. My feeling is that you are right and most black slaves that ended east of Egypt were castrated.
@@xhagastThat's a whole bunch of nonsense.
Since Arabs are still selling slaves, they still buy slaves, they're proud of that fact. they're not even thinking about reparations.
@@noble_norse7786 not really the enuchs were (most of them) slaves, and most of those were black, imagine you are a Arab sultan ( or something close) and you need to go and fight in a war or go raiding or get invited by the emperor, well you can't bring your harem with you but if you leave the women alone they might get pregnant because of all your male servants that work in your palace, and if that happens you have to kill the woman and the slave and then you have to go look for a new woman and a new slave, too bothersome and expensive, better to castrate all of the male slaves so you are sure nothing funny happens while you are gone.
It might seem a bit too violent and gory for it to be true, but remember back in those times women were seen as property and well those were very bloody times.
That disrespectful woman needed to be reprimanded by the hosts. The lack of courtesy is astounding.
I am Nigerian. The corruption and nepotism that reeks in Nigerian polity is ungodly and devastating.
Yes, i would prefer to remain under MY colonial masters at least I will live like a cattle in a pent with modern infrastructure and proper health care and security with enhanced opportunities to succeed even in a controlled environment.
The current state in my country is so appalling that you have taxation without representation. Where political catels plunder the country without without mercy or thoughts to the common man who toils without complaints.
Its only in Nigeria you hear the saying "suffering and smiling" as Fela Kuti sang.
The recent abuse to Nigerians is the new so called Cybersecurity levy which charges 0.5% of any transacted amount. I leave the rest to your imagination to calculate the compound taxation on a given amount being transferred multiple times.
The sad part is the money derived does not go to the state account but to an unaccountable political organization.
In Nigeria, the police and military even coordinates more robbery and kidnapping at the same time disarming the population of any form of self defense.
You pay the armed police to get personal security if you can afford it. If you need running water in your tap, you have to drill bore holes, if you need electricity you have to buy diesel generator, if you need job you have to own your own business where you have to pay exorbitant tax to the street thugs, local, state and Federal government. All without basic utilities and security feom the state.
Yes, would prefer to remain under colonialism at least it life will be better of.
So people who never owned slaves should pay reparations to people who were never slaves? Yeah, that makes perfect frigging sense.
Well apparently our wealth has nothing to do with our industrial revolution, inventing almost everything in everyday use today and selling it all over the world. We just stole stuff, obviously. 😏
Slavery became one of the amendments in the US Constitution (13th amendment). It never ended. Why do you think so many blacks are incarcerated...13th amendment is a loophole to continue with slavery through the penal system. Yes, there is your cheap labor market at work. Also, US slavery didn't see slaves as humans. I believe the truth is adequate reparation.
Do you think you're personally paying reparations? Is it coming out you account?
@@Not_Like_Us87 I was waiting for this asinine comment and here it is. Even though I expected it, the sheer stupidity inherent in it beggars belief. Where do you think the money would come from? Out of thin fucking air? It would come from the taxes that the government takes from my account and over which I have no control. Whether directly from my account, or indirectly through the government, it's the same damned thing. And even if it didn't come from my account the money would STILL come from somebody who never owned a slave and go to somebody who never was a slave.
@@dwcnineteensixtythree341 So blame the government because they have all the fucking money but instead of using it for the people they fund your wars, student debt and migrants. Keep that energy for your government not me. Who's the true ASININE IN THIS CONVERSATION?🤔 NO ONE ASKED YOU TO DO ANYTHING IT'S ABOUT THE GOVERNMENT. THE SAME GOVERNMENT WHO TOOK OUR HOMES AND LAND. BURNED DOWN OUR COMMUNITIES WHEN WE CREATED OUR OUN, THEN TELL US WE NEED THEM WHEN THEY USE THE SYSTEM TO KEEP US FROM ADVANCING. BUT WE'RE THE PROBLEM. YOU BECOME THE PROBLEM WHEN YOU DONT EVEN KNOW YOUR FUCKING HISTORY. THE FUCKERY!
And dont forget the two and a half thousand Royal Navy men that died trying to end the slave trade
...
Not to mention the Civil war.
@darwinxke2827 not us GB
Since they mean about the US
Britain was so steadfast in fighting the horrors of slavery that the nation was in debt until 2015 because of that struggle. Any Briton who paid tax before the year 2015 paid to repay the debt incurred in fighting slavery.
Yes, they paid off the slave owners for loss of property.
If they want reparations, why don't they sue Africa? It was their ancestors who enslaved and sold them off in the first place.
He talks about that
Africa isn't a political entity. You can't just sue a Geographic region.
There's a practice in Africa called 'genital mutilation'. If I had been born in Africa, I would have been subjected to that. Thank God I'm not there! 🙏🏿
Yeah i actually agree with the feminists on this one. Thats a insane form of oppression.
And why the hell would men even want that? It benefits no one and harms about half the population.
We still have it in America, it's called circumcision
@@HowDareYouSpeakToMe I'm talking about what's done to females. It's horrible.

@@deborahgrantham7387 Exactly.
Imagine performing a song and dance upon the graves of your suffering ancestor for a free buck. Anyone who demands reparations for historical slavery should be ashamed and disowned by their families and community.
As far as I know the British didn't introduce slavery to the Caribbean. Jamaica for example was ruled by Spain for 150 years before Britain took it over.
Long before a Spanish flag was seen in the Caribbean, the Carib's enslaved and ate their enemies.
@@MisteryMan2000 Good point.
@@MisteryMan2000False
“British didn’t introduce slavey to the Caribbean” No, they just transported 3.1 million Africans to the Caribbean as slaves between the 17th and 19th century. SMH
@@stevensibbet5869not a good point cuz it’s false. It was a claim made by the Arawak, repeated by the conquistadors. There is no physical evidence of this happening
My mother is black and my father is white. Do I have to pay reparations to myself?
You better put aside some money every paycheck to give to yourself!
Certainly sounds like it 🤷🏼♂️
funny but it would be wise to pay into yourself and your children and their children's children. inheritance!
@@alexgordonepic yes but money from a white person is also white privilege. The crazy side will arbitrarily call it black card or white privilege whenever it suits them.
@@alexgordonepic no! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 that's nepotism and white privilege. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Being English, can I get reperation from;
Italy, (the Romans)
Denmark (Vikings)
Germany (Franks, Angles, Saxons, Jutes)
French(Normans)
Scotland (James 1)
Where do we draw the line?
Stop blaming your heritage for your inability to better yourself
Earn a living.
But the Scots get reparations from the English on account of Longshanks. Everyone knows that now, because of Scotland's greatest hero. Freeeeedoooom! Lol.
What about the pre indo european peoples of doggerland
Except the Normans weren’t really French, they were Norsemen, you forgot about the Barbary Pirates and whilst we are at it how about the Egyptians? I’m sure if we think about it long enough we can shoehorn the Egyptians and building their monuments in there somewhere, somehow, I mean to say they must have offended someone. And how about the builders of Stonehenge? Did they use slaves. Where do I submit my claim?
@@beccabbea2511well some lunatics are now claiming Stonehenge was built by black people so by their logic it was built by slaves 😂
@@gaiuszeno1331that's the point none of it makes sense. This is all just for free easy money.
IDK about anybody else but I never owned a slave so I would refuse to pay a tax increase that would result in me paying reparations to somebody who I did not own..... Also to add to my argument my family never owned them either.
The lack of respect in a hall that always gave it to all speakers is completely disgusting and all of those who were being disrespectful and disruptive should be banned from ever attending again and kicked out of school . The entire purpose of that hall is to have a proper discussion an speech is to hear it without being rude or disruptive .
The speaker handled them deftly
Its not just the UK, the Dutch King and Prime Minister on seperate occasions had to apologize for our history. It is ridiculous!
Greetings from Netherland
A Jamaican told me she would rather have been a slave to blacks in Africa than whites in the colonies.
Fair enough, but in terms of her ancestors, castration of slaves in Africa means she would not be here to be asking reperations
I don't think she has really looked into the way slaves lived, worked and were treated in African nations. Look at what is still going on today for a small indication. Jamaica was better than staying in any of the African countries.
She says so because she knows it won't happen.
That Jamaican has an eye cue of 75 or below. Good luck with that.
Well she doesn't have to worry about being a slave, period. The argument is pointless.
Lol the lack of awareness of conditions...
White people were enslaved in Rome, conquered by vikings, forced to war in the middle ages, indentured servants in the Americas, lost everything in the Civil War, lost their jobs and money to bank runs until the FDIC came about in the 1930s, lost their homes in the Great Recession, etc. History sucked for everyone. Our ancestors were resilient. What exactly is the timeline threshold for being owed money from our ancestors' woes?
At a time when having male children were a necessity to help in farming or business, my family lost two or three young men and really never fully recovered post ACW. No mention of that, no recognition of the sacrifices of the whites who ended slavery here. Those reparations seekers never talk about it.
This should be to0 comment!
White Europeans were also enslaved by Arabs/North Africans.
As a descendent of the Vikings, I want reparations for the work related injuries that my ancestors suffered.
@@jeng2358the moors.... Lol
Like what's the reason for the Crusades.......
These students are not taught how to think, but what to think. And socialize, play with cellphones and bite their nails.
The real problem here isn't those asking for reparations which they do not deserve, it is those who listen to them and treat them seriously.
Back in 1974 Mohammed Ali went to Zaire to face George Foreman and upon hs return to America a reporter asked Ali what he thought of Africa, Ali's response "Thank God my grandaddy got on that boat."
Holy all insanity ...a proud Black Muslim like Muhammed Ali drops a throw away comment in his inimical and mischievous way and we go ' mmm yes...slave is good ...mmmm' A great black man thinks all his friends and brothers should just get down on their knees and praise God for those shit filled prison boats were African men women and children died in their tens of thousands in dark chained specially made below decks...that makes sense a little less clever then the plump dissembler but exactly of the same idealogy....
Brilliant reply from the greatest. 😂 ❤
Except that was AFTER he joined nation of islam and became an open black supremacist.
@@user-zr9nl2wl3o The same guy who got a round of applause for saying he believed in racial purity but as we all know it always different when a black/'minority' says it. Interestingly he changed his name from the man who helped start the emancipation movement to two actual slave owners/traders. Muhammad the 'prophet' and his son in law Ali, ironic huh!
@@TheScience69 so even after he became an open black supremacist he was grateful that his ancestors got on that boat?
History is not there for us to like or dislike, it is there to learn from the past and try not to make the same mistakes
Exactly
That’s why the Leftist call is to destroy the past. Russia and China did it, remember?
agreed, next time we should not free the slaves
And yet History keeps repeating itself, No one learns from it
My ancestors were run out of Ireland by starvation even as England exported food from Ireland to England and other countries. Ethnic cleansing! They came to America with nothing and lived lives of poverty as day laborers. Many signed up to fight the south in the Civil War, not because it was their war but it gave them pay. They were discriminated against here in America for many years. Do I get reparations for their sufferings from England? Can I bring a case of discrimination against the USA? No, and no and they wouldn't want me to be such a weak person making money off their backs. They could have ended up in the workhouses in Ireland and died, but they journeyed on the death ships and made it here. I'm proud to carry their genes and grateful for their endurance through adversity. Stand tall and do your ancestors proud instead of belly aching about the past. The word "slave" comes from "slavic" self reference to the Slavic people of Slovenia and throughout Europe used as slaves by Spanish Muslim community. Is there an ethnic group that hasn't been slaves at one time or another or been subject to ethnic cleansing? Nope! I'm not paying anyone for reparations or getting reparations. Go to school, get the education you need, study, get a job and make something of yourself and honor those that came before you. Period!
Those irish came to Australia too.
Should descendants of convicts sent to Australia claim reparations? Many were irish political prisoners. Others poor people who stole to eat.
Now aboriginal groups here are seeking reparations too. But in my living memory four generations of my family before me farmed here and had to BUY their farms. It wasnt stolen. Or worked by slaves. But aboriginals want reparations.
It is evident that universities are no longer centres for learning, but businesses.
Why is the audience composed of toddlers?

Reparation? You go down that road then EVERYONE on the planet is ENTITLED to them. ....
Bingo.
And to pay them. Many imported Africa slaves of that era were from tribes who had slaves. It was the norm
But we should, I need the money
My family came from millers and farmhands....... Where are my reparations?
I thought looting, getting govt positions and getting away with murder, were the reparations.
Today's youth have lost the ability to listen, use critical thinking, and interpret facts. The adoption of feelings over facts and the interpretation of history as something to fit an oppressor versus the oppressed narrative in every instance has made them ignorant and arrogant. 🥴
Today's youth isn't even the half of the problem. I live in America, so here we have copious loads of propaganda and brain washing. Once people get emotional they are controlled with ease, so emotional regulation skills have been neglected over time, despite looking otherwise.
Silly girl behind the speaker does not appreciate the speaker who has given up his time to inform these students of what they should have worked out for themselves. Many of the students now at our elite universities are unworthy of their places.
Your wasting your time trying to talk to middle class university educated students.
I understand the frustration for sure... But when doing wrong causes their little lives to suck in the future.. (for instance when Mommy and Daddy aren't paying anymore)... How will they know which way to turn?... They have to be told the correct way of judging a matter... Otherwise they are automatically doomed to stupidity..
I think we all agree that there is enough stupid people already! 😭🤣
Exactly...
The woke guff emanating from these universities is the problem.
They know everything and can’t be told anything.
The stupidest type of people.
It's amazing, you can actually see the programming struggle to retain control as they fidget and despertely try to distract themselves
Educated ? 🤔
Thomas Sowell remarked 'that the original slaves that came to America had a hard time but ask any of
their descendants if they would like to go back to Africa
Starting in the early 1800s Freed slaves were given the opportunity to return to Africa (Colonization societies were set-up (by white people) that funded transportation to and setup of colonies for freed slaves in Africa (primarily in Liberia) while some did return most did not.
True,thank you
Some do, but not many
@@traildriving Sure.🤣🤣🤣
After the civil war in the US, hardly any of the former slaves would go back, even though the US BOUGHT a country for them.

`Those students are so closed minded and not even listening to what's being said. They just bury their heads in the sand.
I would like to say the gentleman speaking in the video has spoken more sense than anyone I've ever heard. All these people who are all wanting the British to apologise should listen to him. Well spoken, Sir, here here. I applaud you.
The idea that some people think slavery is something that only affected their race is ignorant. To expect another race be held accountable instead of the ones responsible and pay reparations is plainly asinine.
Group punishments of any kind arnt punishments, there are a way to cover yourself up, it’s disgraceful that here in the uk you can get arrested for what someone else did just because you were there and people think you should pay for something that the victim’s died centuries ago and the criminals despite it been legal at the time, if anything the only people paying should be the lawmakers at the time as everyone else was following the law isn’t always trusted there is no law
We already give them reparations. Its called welfare and food stamps.
They should've scrapped the obsolete farm equipment the moment it became obsolete.
24 Trillion dollars worth since 1964
Section 8 housing, job preferences, admission standards lowered, etc. They are WAY better off today than would have been otherwise. In the words of Cassius Clay, "I'm glad my ancestors got on that boat"!
Those aren’t reparations, they’re policies put in place to incentivize them to stay slaves.
Well if you look at when welfare started it was for white people. That's just a fact. I do agree with what this video says but your comment isn't necessarily correct
What is considered a victim of slavery has historically only counted 3 generations. The actual victim, their child and their grand child. At which point the position is set to that limit.
The brainwashed girl in the background who thought it better to chat to her colleague, rather than listen to the debate, consttntly shakes her head. Not because she can dispute the facts from Rafe, but simply because she DOESN'T LIKE what she's hearing. The quantity and calibre of similar Cambridge Union students that are also unable to think for themselves is somewhat astounding.
It's time us Brits stop being modest , polite and humble and declare “we gave you the best life you could have and ask for nothing in return but respect”.
We ? 🤔
Turns out that was too much to ask for.
You can be modest, polite, and humble and still staunchly defend the greatness your nation has brought to the world.
The main problem as I see it with the current moronic zeitgeist of neo-Marxist twits raging through our institutions in the West is not their clamoring over the past sins of the West but their utter and complete neglect of gratitude for all that the West has brought the world. When they talk about how evil Western Capitalism is the reply ought to be “Compared to what?” They will likely blather on about some imaginary Marxist utopia that has never and will never be (yes, Marxism has been tried, and failed). The next reply ought to be, “Right! Feel free to divest yourselves of all the vestiges of Western life and relocate to your favorite Marxist experiment around the world-there are plenty to choose from-and have a go at perfecting your worldview!”
They will, of course, punt on that proposition, at which point they ought to be marginalized and ignored until they grow up.
@@anthonyg4671yes, WE, as in “We Britain gave you the best life”…

The majority of these youngsters use the wrong “C” word. It wasn’t Colonisation it was Civilisation.

Muhamed Ali after visiting Africa , "Thank God my granddaddy got on that boat!"
If i could meet any one person, i would want to have met my first ancestor who came here on a slave boat. So i could tell him/her “your legacy will live. Your legacy will be strong and prosper, because you endured and chose to fight and survive bondage. That is who I would want to meet.
Mohammed Ali was original called Cassius Clay but changed his name to Mohammed Ali after becoming a Muslim. At the time he said that he didnt want to carry the name of his families slave owner. However, he was wrong ? He was named Cassius Clay in honour of a white man who was an abolitionist and who actually fought to free slaves. Ye the man he chaged his name to the prophet Mohammed, was both a slave owner and trader. How ironic is that !

And that is what most families through history do, we try and make life better for the next generation, so instead of crying about the unfairness, these money mad woe is me's, need to be thankful for their ancestors who went through hell to make their life better.
"chose" to fight? they didn't have a choice
What angers people the most about what Rafe says is that he’s of Indian Sikh heritage therefore preventing the use of their favourite weapon used to dismiss any argument they don’t like, claiming racism by the speaker of ideas they cannot argue against.
Rafe ( the plump dissembler) needs no heritage Sikh or otherwise to save or condemn his factually incoherent nonsense ...the claims are so blatantly wrong and offensive he strips himself bare before logic and history...solely by claiming indisputable fact around every descendant of a slave currently living in Britain being better off than the unhappy ones who escaped the branding and whipping generations before....that is not remotely academic or decent !!
They solved that in the USA by just doing it anyways. It makes no sense, but critical thinking has never been their strong suit.
@@sempersteel2799 As a citizen of the USA I sadly must agree. My countrymen have long forgone the art of thought and just listen to whatever rich prominent individual promises them free money for false morality.

What information ..? That the black and brown races should read history from the point of view of gratitude to the white race for landing on their shores and bringing ' advancement ' ...yay what joy they have been given... TV, alcohol,Monarchy, religious fundamentalism, capitalism, Association Football , jails ,industrial scale warfare and all the weapons that go with it and finally diseases that literally decimated populations in every Colonial outpost or country.....the lucky buggers!

When I was a student at California State University, Long Beach, I met an engineering student from Nigeria. I was excited to meet someone who was actually from Sub-Saharan Africa. In the course of the conversation he told me that his family had for a 1,000 years and still were slave traders. He said they mostly sold slaves to North African countries and into West Asia. He thought it was actually a good thing. He said if there was a famine they bought the teenagers, leaving enough food for the adults and younger children, if there was a troublemaker in a village that person was sold to the slavers to keep harmony and it prevented wars because of the threat of a captured warrior being sold. Cannot say I agree with him but it is his perspective.
Interesting to know! Wow
These kids are refusing to hear him! Watch their faces and their motions!
One of the most dangerous things that can happen, is when people explain the truth about something, and people just don’t listen. And you can see that with the girl in the background who keeps looking at her phone and grinning.
It's just envy, Europeans built the modern world and that is what they are really butt hurt about
Mostly the English from Kent and New England. Charles Murray's _Human Accomplishment._
A lot of these progressive complaints can be chalked up to envy and entitlement.
Anyone notice the children sitting behind speaker continued exchanging jokes on their phones rather than listening to someone they disagree with
Children learned nothing of substance
These 'critical thinkers' have trained their brains to switch off when someone brings up facts they don't want to believe.
100 percent a stupid idea that selfish individuals promote purely for the money.
When I was growing up in the 90’s, you didn’t have to preface an argument by saying, “ I’m not a supporter of slavery”. Because of course, nobody is……. And it pathetic that you even need to do that now
He speaks the truth. The average black Brit makes 10 times as much as the average Nigerian and Nigeria is the wealthiest nation in Sub-Saharan Africa. Black Brits are much better off in the UK than they'd ever be in Africa.
Don't be fooled by the hate promoting agitprop [As the Nazis & Bolsheviks used] [to grab power!] It's Not about the reparations, stupid! [As the Libs say], it's about divisive Hate! "For out of Chaos comes Change." As history tells [some of] us! (These stupid neo Nazi Brown Shirts didn’t pump this reoperations crap into their own heads, they had help from Satan’s people! So live with it!
Perhaps they should pay compensation for the benefits that they have received😊
Unless one takes into account the Nigérian princes 😂…
Britain is not the USA and has little or none native ancestors of African slaves.
Caribean immigration in the 1950s and after is an indirect source.
However, there are may African immigrants in the UK, so the term black means little in this context (I would argue the term black means little in global context too, it is an American thing that has little relation to Polynesians, for example)
@@josmith9662how are black people not black outside of the US? 😂
Claiming victimhood for what happened to other people is disgraceful.
Ascribing guilt to people who had nothing to do with the offense is atrocious.
💯
For the love of GOD!!! 94 countries STILL HAVE LEGAL SLAVERY!!! Can we focus on dragging those who are still behind forward instead of continuing to obsess over our ancestors mistakes?!
Who?
"We don't blame gun owners for mass violent shootings" Are you sure about that? After almost every single one in the last 20 years, I've heard public statements from politicians and/or media talking heads claiming that gun owners are to blame because they oppose "common sense gun control solutions." Great video overall but that was an odd point to make.
That girl in the striped top, so rude! Smirking, talking to her friends, playing on her phone. So disrespectful. She's not even listening to him but sitting there shaking her head anyway.
She is an educated student of useless knowledge. Her professor has already told her what to think. Typical educated SJW.
And her ancestors were probably mistreated in Ireland by the British and the Americans when her ancestors immigrated. There is so much abuse in history, there is no way reparations can be made other than making sure equality is guaranteed henceforth.
I feel embarrassed for the young intellectuals in the background scoffing at his arguments. They appear to have trouble hearing anything that may oppose their strongly held ideology. Their minds appear closed to any new way of thinking. It is sad that Universities and colleges have come to a place where one belief is held in common rather than being completely open to all views in the hope of discovering and learning.
Do you mean embarrassed or disgusted at their lack of respect and inability to consider all aspects of an argument.
@@deborahfoss904 Both really. I think our learning institutions are long overdue for massive reforms.
This
They think they are intellectuals but they are still students. Sadly with closed minds. At nearly 80 I still study and am eager to learn everything I can. This lot are know-it-all. SAD!!
@@cynthiastrawson3316 Good on you Cynthia. The world needs more people like you. Keep up the good work 😀
No one is really mad. Everyone just wants free stuff. Greed is the real issue here.
It's amazing how ignorant we have become.
Excellent speech!! And those woefully stupid students didn’t appreciate it or pay attention…and the speaker should get reparations for their rudeness!!!
No to reparations.
Most of these college kids probably think the Africans were just innocently walking up and down the beach of Africa and Englishmen landed, said hello, and threw lassos around their necks and round them up onto the ships.
As an 53 years old romanian RESPECT !!!!
Here in Britain we have been paying reparations for what seems like forever in the form of overseas foreign aid. Between 2010 and 2020. Britain went through a decade of austerity where all of over public services were cut, wages were stagnant, taxes went up to pay for the banking crisis but we still gave away over £175 billion in foreign aid. Our government thought that every other nation deserved our money more than us and went out of their way to tax us even more to pay for their vanity project! Two world wars and trillions pounds and let’s not forget how many trillions of dollars our American cousins have been forced to pay to all these ungrateful countries who are now decanting all their criminals in the form of illegal immigration!
well said. totally agree
Yeah, we get reminded of how little of our money is spent here on us, with that lovely tax letter every year. 😡
Canada too.
You forgot that we also only paid off the debt incurred from forcing the abolition of the slave trade in 2015 so we have all paid our part in the tax burden for this debt.
I am not worried about past slavery. I am concerned with modern slavery and my own, and they call it tax. My ancestors were Ottoman slaves to note. Reparations from modern Turkey, not a chance.
The Holy Bible mentions that the Jewish Slaves owed Pharaoh 20% of their earnings. That's probably much lower than what you're paying in taxes.
Exactly!! Put some money into freeing and helping today’s slaves!!!
The NWO WEF already have your complete slavery planed out! They even advertise that, Quote, "That you'll own, Nothing, and be happy." Reparation agitprop (being pushed by Satan's cogs) is just one step in that Godless enslaving process!
I am worries if USA's Black slave owners family, will get their fair share of the, "free stuff," "I have a dream" money , or will it just promote More Hate?
Satan only knows!
The Ottomans (and other Islamic Empires) also did much slave trade. Some where even unbelievable cruel. But nobody seems to demand anything from them. They even have the audacity to reject one of the biggest geno*ides done by them and nobody complains.
People who never owned slaves shouldn't pay people who aren't slaves
The arguments by this historian are infact VERY POWERFUL AND NOT EVEN COMPLETE. In Britain 85% of the British public couldn't even vote until between 1880 and 1920 which means they had no political power even if they had wanted to change anything. On top of that the 'empire' didn't become an empire until the mid to late 1700s. So the British public wouldn't have been aware of there even being an organised empire for more than 150 years let alone the fact apart from the introduction of sugar and tobacco they didn't benefit from the empire AT ALl. The whole narrative surrounding the empire is at best unbelievably inaccurate and at worst a complete and total hoax. The beneficiaries of the empire's wealth were highly specific ruling and merchant elites that at the most represented 15% of the British population if not quite possibly far less. All these things are factually and historically a matter of record and 100% checkable. Most Britons never ventured 30 miles from their homes. This is why there are so many regional accents that at one time were even more multifarious than now
well said.
They always wanted something for nothing.
They barely scrapped the surface of the bronze age until Europeans went into Africa, while Europe already cities and palaces.
that's the liberal way
Didn’t Earn It.
Sad to see but UK made a rod for their own back. give them a fishing rod they will catch their own, give them a fish they will ask for more and more and more
@@deborahfoss904 the UK offered kindness, something entitled and abusive people see as weakness ready for exploitation.
Nobody appears to have been 'destroyed'. All I see is students laughing, shaking their heads and thinking they know better. They aren't interested in facts.
In South Africa, the world class infrastructures left by the Colonists are slowly been dedtroyed by the current government. .... I believe that colonialism had it's benefits
Its not a school, its a cult
The 300,000+ lives given and treasure spent to end slavery in the US were sufficient reparations.
What did they do with the freed slaves? They incarcerated most of them. 😎👍
@@Crunt2167 Bull! The end of slavery didn't end racial discrimination in the US, but the 4 million Blacks in 1865 were certainly not imprisoned. Where do you get your disinformation. Also it was the democrats North and South who did the most to hold blacks back, and they still are.
@@Crunt2167 4 million former slaves were incarcerated - I don't think so.
@@Crunt2167x to doubt
The civil war was fought over this and a lot of non slaves gave their lives for them
to now be told its NOT enough
Reparations is about greed and getting money for nothing.
Imagine being a former slave looking down from heaven and seeing your descendents demanding a free hand out in your name because they feel they're owed for what you yourself went through as a slave, generations before they were even born. While they live in a world of opportunities you could barely even dream of.
My ancestors were serfs in a feudal system, prior to that they were slaves to the Roman Empire, and also the Norman invasion. Can I get reparations too?
Absolutely, referring to your slavery. As a Greek speaking Roman, my ancestors were slaves that lived outside that great city. I'm referring to Byzantium, just in case, historically, you do not know..
I however, doubt the Orthodox Church would hand me reparations, except ask me to pray.
Don't forget the Vikings too.
Very true when william landed in Pevensey bay 0ctober 1066 and beat Harold of the saxons , his first acts were to distribute manors and the feudal manorial system where everyone was in servitude to the Normans. Basically you were owned by the Lord of the manor
You need to ask for reparation ........!
No because your skin isn't dark enough, don't you know that stuff is only for people with darker skin? you silly goose
Anyone calling for reparations are FREE to give their own money to the cause. Why attempt to force others into this insanity?
I didn't know YOU WERE THE ONE PAYING?
@@Not_Like_Us87if you pay taxes, you’re among those paying. Government cannot give to one what it does not first take from another.
@drdesign6049 Asians, Native Americans, and now Jewish people are receiving reparations. What's the difference?
Jewish people get paid reparations right now. 183 million...🤣🤣🤣
@@Not_Like_Us87 that’s a good question. Since you’ve asked, I would presume that you already know and are prepared to explain the differences for each group. Go ahead and tell me.
In the United States after the Civil War former slaves could each receive 40 acres & a mule. Even today many black’s descendants still have ownership of the property.
So why do they have uniformed kids behind him?? They just regurgitat what their parents and so-called teachers have taught them. Reparations are one of the dumbest things I've ever heard of.
why should a generation of people who do not own slaves pay reparation to people who are not slaves.
Currently, there are some from India complaining of a famine in which 3 million died. They do not mention the earlier famine, before the British built the railways, in which 38 million died.
My Father's family came to the US in 1860 & 61. They fought to free the slaves! So isn't that enough "Reparations"? Since a few of them DIED and others wounded?
President Johnson said "Now that we have passed the civil rights act, we will own black Americans for the next 200 years". I changed the words Black Americans instead of using the actually N word President Johnson used.
Every society on earth since the beginning of time has been or has held slaves. What about the slaves today?
oh one one cares. You see DOING something about todays slaves is different then just crying over it because it requires work and effort
He mentions that in the video
Over 2,000 brit sailors died fighting slavers thru 1850
In 1830, there were 3,775 black (including mixed-race) slaveholders in the South who owned a total of 12,760 slaves, the first people to sell slave were black In 1830, there were 3,775 black (including mixed-race) slaveholders in the South who owned a total of 12,760 slaves,
I have polish ancestry, and my ancestors never held slaves - but they were enslaved by Africans for centuries. I'm waiting for my check
Rafe Heydel Mankoo is a modern voice for reason, arguing with precision and clarity.
He is a true Renaissance man.
This was the best argument against the call for reparations I have ever heard. Very comprehensive! This man is always worth listening to.
Those idiots in the backgrounds faces quickly dropped when they started hearing facts!
This isn't about empowerment. No one can empower someone else. people need to empower themselves and stop "being the victim" in their own minds.
It's not about respiration, it's about trying to get free money for nothing. The past is passed. Today is today worried about where you're going tomorrow. If you are hoping somebody is going to give you money for yesterday you are doomed. Do not be doomed, take a look at where you want to go. East State take one step towards where you want to go You may have to learn stuff do stuff and often take a step sideways to get to where you want to go.
The "so-called" students are not taking notes. They obviously aren't paying attention to the professor's presentation. They appear to be of college age, but they behave like junior high children, rudely giggling, chatting, and looking at their smart phones during the lecture. hmmmm
would be interesting to read one of the students essay's on this.
The only smart thing they have.
