To say that it has nothing to do with race is an oversimplification of the issue. It is about power, but the labeling of an easily identifiable group as slaves by a society reduces that society's empathy towards the group and deprives that group of social power within that society, making it easier to deprive them of other forms of power. It became a race thing in the United States because people made it that way.

This happened because kid's parents stopped going to PTA meetings and finding out what their kids were learning, we all are guilty of this. All I got to say is when the politicians shut down the schools for 2 years it was the best thing that ever happened, because we finally found out what our kids and Grandkids were learning about, in US History and it was not about our country but about being woke.

It was the Haitians (black people) who ended slavery first in the western civilization and took that island from their enslavers, the French. 1791, not long after the formation of the states. The forefathers knew all about what was going on in Haiti and hated it. The reason you don’t know about it was because slave owners and their descendants throughout the centuries here were so scared that the call for slaves to rebel throughout the Americas against their enslavers would catch fire all over the continents. Their solution: ban literacy amongst the slaves lest they be able to read one of these stories of Haitian liberation and be inspired. Her entire premise exists with the assumption that the slaves themselves did not fight for their freedoms long before any white person with clout believed us human enough to deserve it. She is literally coddling and curating white denialism, revisionism, and superiority and is paid handsomely for it by a bunch of people who benefit from her little story tale saying that white people were the first to end it. Yal weren’t. It’s a lie. Slaves were the first to end slavery in the world. Haiti had to pay France an outrageous amount of money to be left alone. That plus the US sanctions have decimated the economy of that country. And now you all point a finger at that island and say “what an awful place”. The colonizers did everything they could to make sure Haiti did not succeed. No Americans did not invent slavery but white people were not the first to successfully end it. And while the rest of the west was moving on the US doubled down and resorted to forced breeding to keep a steady supply for the trade. The US is culpable for the sheer brutality of its slave trade and all the pain and oppression that followed once it ended. It pains me to see this brotha fall victim to her lies and half truths.

As someone who went to school in Europe (Luxembourg, Poland, Iceland), I am really shocked at how, for most Americans, this is not common knowledge and they are not being taught the true history of slavery. It makes me wonder who exactly is pushing this agenda and why children in American schools are being deliberately misinformed on the proper history of slavery. Something that really shocks me is how most Americans are not being taught in school about the Turkish Ottoman Empire, and how majority of slaves were Slavic Europeans and the horrible things the Ottoman Empire did to Slavic Europeans. Don't forget that the Turkish men who ran the Ottoman Empire were obsessed with having sex with Slavic Europeans, and that they found Slavic Europeans to be the most sexually desirable ethnicity. So you had huge Ottoman Empire armies go into Slavic European countries, hunting and capturing Slavic European men and women, taking them back to Turkey, and forcing them to be sex slaves for Turkish men, where they were raped on a regular basis. So if we're going to have a conversation about reparations, we also need to have a conversation about reparations for Slavic Europeans.

They slave traders had to maintain the belief that the only value the slaves had was monetary. It wouldn’t have mattered what race the slaves were. If it had been about race then how do you explain where it began with the African kings? They were capturing and selling THEIR OWN. The reason all the slaves were black at the time is because all the people in Africa were black. It’s not like the traders said “whites you stay here, we don’t want you, we only want the blacks.” NO, the racial narrative is a relatively new one created and motivated for political and ideological purposes. Thank God for the founding fathers who did have a conscience and knew what they were doing was wrong and worked to stop it. Times were political back then also and change takes time.

Hold their attention with interesting subjects. Discard all the other unnecessary subjects and classes.

That it "HURTS," as he says, to learn that the USA didn't start slavery, or that it only allowed the legal importation of slaves onto its shores for 32 years, when an act of Congress passed in 1800 made it illegal for Americans to engage in the slave trade between nations, and gave U.S. authorities the right to seize slave ships which were caught transporting slaves and confiscate their cargo and then the "Act Prohibiting the Importation of Slaves" took effect in 1808 -- that this HURTS his mind to learn this speaks volumes about how he has been brainwashed to think anything else.

Yep. More or less, 600,000 mostly white Americans laid down their lives over this. And more than that number, horribly wounded, disfigured, who managed to survive and live out lives of torment. They may have thought they were fighting for all kinds of reasons (to preserve the union for its own sake, for instance) but an end result of their efforts was the 13th Amendment. I think it is an historical accuracy - to put forward a provable observation - that America was the only country to go to war with itself (at least partly) over slavery. Not to capture and win the economic value of slaves, but to end the practice altogether. Which is provable enough if we study the rise, the evolution of, and the final outcomes of the American abolition movement - initiated and developed primarily by whites. We live, unfortunately, in an era of historical illiteracy. Almost a revulsion against this discipline. People don't care. They don't want to know. They don't need to know. They can casually look up a thing on google once in a blue moon. I was taught in early school grades to love history so much that by middle school I began to understand the importance of knowing history. And then the Civil Rights movement washed over me. Like a guiding light. The holocaust. The Russian revolution. And later, Mao. Cambodia. Yugoslavia. Rwanda. Context and perspective. You're spot on. It makes me crazy to think of educational administrators hiring goons, fools, charlatans and pretenders to re-write every single text found in schools today. Nothing in there of value. Like processing cheese to the point where legally, they can't call it cheese anymore, but instead, "cheese food." No wonder kids don't want to read. They're offered slop so awful that even a self-respecting kid, before attaining middle school, suspects that something's up. Of course education was (and still is) hijacked by a left agenda. In my time, education was neither left nor right. All that waited patiently outside the school doors.

I have a unique experience because i have been teaching meditation for a very long time. So I talk to anyone about anything they want to talk about as one way to help them relieve their anxiety. I always speak value free. Adjunctively, conversations often would break out after on any topic whatsoever in mixed company. It's clearly not organic. Reason is being short circuited by weaponizing raw compassion.

Your preaching to the choir, Learned a lot in school and i lived in a little town and had a 3 rate school. we only had 1 black family and 1 Asian family in town from the time I was in 3rd grade till 8th grade. to me they was just people like me; we learned together, played together, and got in trouble together.

“This hurts to listen to”. Yes my friend. Because the truth hurts.

It's frightening that you didn't know any of this before, but it's way more heartening to see you working through it so thoughtfully.

As a white male I would get hated on for pointing these facts out!! Even got in fights for speaking truth, but I will gladly stand up for my right to speak the truth.

She’s wrong on so many counts. It was the Haitians (black people) who ended slavery first in the western civilization and took that island from their enslavers, the French. 1791, not long after the formation of the states. The forefathers knew all about what was going on in Haiti and hated it. The reason you don’t know about it was because slave owners and their descendants throughout the centuries here were so scared that the call for slaves to rebel throughout the Americas against their enslavers would catch fire all over the continents. Their solution: ban literacy amongst the slaves lest they be able to read one of these stories of Haitian liberation and be inspired. Her entire premise exists with the assumption that the slaves themselves did not fight for their freedoms long before any white person with clout believed us human enough to deserve it. She is literally coddling and curating white denialism, revisionism, and superiority and is paid handsomely for it by a bunch of people who benefit from her little story tale saying that white people were the first to end it. Yal weren’t. It’s a lie. Slaves were the first to end slavery in the world. Haiti had to pay France an outrageous amount of money to be left alone. That plus the US sanctions have decimated the economy of that country. And now you all point a finger at that island and say “what an awful place”. The colonizers did everything they could to make sure Haiti did not succeed. No Americans did not invent slavery but white people were not the first to successfully end it. And while the rest of the west was moving on the US doubled down and resorted to forced breeding to keep a steady supply for the trade. The US is culpable for the sheer brutality of its slave trade and all the pain and oppression that followed once it ended. It pains me to see this brotha fall victim to her lies and half truths. YAL ARE PUSHING LIES!

Extremely inconvenient truth... this isn't the only one.

Jojo much love to you man. Believe it or not i can kind of relate to how you feel in this video because being raised as a patriotic white kid growing up I was always taught that the history of America was so great and that the Chrisopher Columbus was a hero. Then, through other sources i found out the horrors of the slave trade, and how most of what had been romanticized in my childhood was truly terrible for many people. The truth will set us free, but that doesn't mean it wont be pretty uncomfortable to break away from our foundations.

Well, just cuz something is natural doesn't mean that human should go around doing it. Yes, might makes right in nature, usually, but there are examples even in so-called lower animals where a smarter animal can overcome a larger stronger animal. Humans have advanced to a point where physical strength doesn't really matter especially with mechanization which is actually largely what ended slavery in many places... And yes, slavery is often done not so much along racial lines but definitely along ethnic lines. Usually, a people doesn't want to enslave their own. That's what you do to the other guy... Also, when the different ethnicities have different skin Shades, it does make it easier to identify who is a free person versus who is a Slave, but no there have been cases of the slaves being basically the same race and even a very close ethnicity to the enslaver... They put yellow stars on my people because yes, the Polish and Germans are not that different ethnically and it was hard to tell them apart just based on their appearance because both were light-skinned and they didn't have DNA test back then to tell German vs. Polish or German vs. Russian or whatever they were after at the time... Anyway, sometimes they will have slaves wear different colors of clothes or some have a brand, but yes if society cannot tell slave from free with skin color they will have another symbol like those horrible Stars they're my relatives were actually forced to wear before they were gassed to death. And those people were white as snow with blue eyes and red hair. Bad shit can and does happen to all races

Brother I was born in the 60's and all of this was common knowledge. I am as shocked that this isn't being taught to our youth as you are that it is true. I am praying that this opens the eyes of many and draws our lives together under a common bond-that we are all made in the image of God.

These Videos should be mandatory in every School in US and the rest of the World.

she speaking facts

JoJo all the lies you’ve been taught should inspire you to help fight to spread the truth and stop the lie.

What is more scary, is that this information has been readily available to go and find out for a very long time. The current population is so open to manipulation and being lied to and taking peoples word for something and treating it as fact, that you end up with huge amounts of the people who shout and spout all the wrong things, without bothering to go and fact check what they have been told. Kudos to you for watching and being open to change, but the fact that this was all so shocking and surprising to you is kind of indicative of the wider problem with today's world.

We've never lived in better times to be informed, with access to more information than all of the libraries of the world, combined, and in an easily-searchable format. Yet we are more mis-informed than possibly any other generation in modernity. I remember when the John Podesta emails leaked in like 2015, one of the cable news outlets was telling its viewers "it's illegal for you to search for and read this data, but since we're journalists we can, so stick with us to get the "truth" about what is in these leaks" (paraphrase, but something to that effect). It was a total lie; once it's leaked anyone can read anything on the internet. It's the one doing the leaking that get's in trouble, not the leaker. But some people fell for it... Same during Covid, where on twitter there were bot acct's trying to convince people that they are too stupid to understand research papers, lol. Sad thing is a lot of people started parroting that message, essentially convincing themselves they are too stupid to look up the definition of words they don't understand (if they didn't go to school for STEM) Really makes me wonder if we're getting stupider as a people, or if the propaganda and manipulation is so sophisticated that it's hard for the average person to tell when they're being lied to... Maybe a little of both.

I mean, usually when you have a play slag. North Korea or Russia, which are Communist countries, which have a dictator like North Korea. Russia used to be even worse when Stalin was around. Because I mean, he had complete control. I mean, in this in a in a way pretty much. Everybody underhimb is a slave in a sense because you have no sense of freedom. People in sweatshops, for instance, I mean, people need to think. Stop thinking and complaining about their, you know, turn light is so tough. Because of what happened to an ancestor like bro, let's get nothing to do with you. Does it make you feel bad? Yeah, sure, I mean, I told you. My ancestors were Jewish and we all know what happened. Wow, I'm not gonna say we all. Because I mean, this guy obviously. Doesn't I mean that you know Moses and me? It's a second book in the Bible. But you know, I mean, World War 2. Where they pretty much tried to wipe the whole. Race right off the planet, what's that? That's not bad, no for you. Like I just don't get some people and just. They're motivation or reaction. Sometimes I really enjoy complete negligence tool. Or just unability to open up and listen. Do something that is obviously true. Because I know some of the stuff is true. Because I have done research on some of this stuff somewhat. Most people should know it just said a general knowledge. But II guess you just watched CNN or something. Donald Trump is a way to premise his. Because he's trying to clean up the mortal. And have people come in legally. Like dude, how stupid can people be? You are taking something and just blowing it way out of proportion.

The problem is the talking box. People go on emotions and the talking box is great at shaping emotions and feelings. The other huge problem is the commies have had control of our educational system for long enough to pump out two generations of useful idiots. The sun is setting on the west if we don't push back on this insanity soon.

The truth will set you free but first it’s really gunna piss you off.
