We need to learn the complete history and not just those parts that fill our agenda in some form or fashion.
In the beginning ...the first slaves in the 1600s, in America, were white. The nobility of England thought to clean up the homeless problems oft he times by taking even children and shipping them out of the country. They weren't free to say no I wont go. They were kidnapped, chained and boarded onto ships (yes great numbers died on the way) and forced to live in a strange land - live or die situation. Just as Australia was colonialized by those marked as criminals in England.
The 1st ships to Africa was Hispanic...Portuguese and Spanish not English.
Remember that the African tribes raided villages and brought the captives to the coast to be sold to the Europeans, without the African tribes assistance there would have been no slavery at all. The crews of those ships didn't go inland because they were outnumbered and could have been slaughtered easily. The Africans were the ones that carried out the raids not the Europeans. And check to see who guarded the slaves in the Caribbean Islands, most often they were overseen by blacks.
Most people don't know that some of the largest plantations owned in the south, were black owned and operated. Yes, they owned black slaves.
On the plus side and still not readily known...
The FIRST self made woman millionaire was Sarah Breedlove (December 23, 1867 – May 25, 1919), known as Madam C. J. Walker, was an American entrepreneur, philanthropist, and the first female self-made millionaire in America. But she wasn't the only one. Check to see how many black millionaires there were in the 1800-1900s. Yes they did exist especially in America. Which is a major reason the KKK Came into being ...OH BTW did you know that - KKK was started by Democrats...Republicans were anti slavery. But in the telling it has been twisted around.
In fact you might want to find out out who Margret Sanger really was and what she really stood for...
Do you know who the Buffalo Soldiers - Tuskegee were?- Both were celebrated for their bravery and skills.
STOP rewriting history...STOP trying to fit history into an agenda and just learn it. Dig and find out what really happened. It can be a real eye opener. The truth of the saying "if we don't learn we are bound to repeat it" sadly can be so very true.
