Another powerful story expertly told. When the affluent and those in power are corrupt, it’s no wonder that the common people rebel.

So while the nobility and gentry of Africa were selling the poor of their own land into slavery overseas, those of Scotland were doing the same to their own countrymen.

Thank you Bruce. I am glad you mentioned Pennsylvania, the newspapers from my home state are an amazing resource and can lead to rabbit holes worse than any late night on Wikipedia.

Fascinating and horrific story. Probably not generally known how horrific and perilous most people's lives could be in fairly recent history, (and can still be today). You should be writing the national curriculum of history! This should be taught in schools today, as a reminder of the sheer evil, corruption and injustice of authority and vested interests. Such lessons are still highly relevant today. Thank you for a fascinating story, once again!

People who live in an age of such material security as we do today have no moral authority to judge those who did not.

My fifth great-grandmother was an Indian slave girl, of George Ross, M.P. of Cromarty estate, named Isabella Ross (later MacLeod). Her hand was denied to my fifth great-grandfather Sir Hugh Munro 5th Bt Fowlis and George Ross even gave her to his MacLeod cousin in Inverness in his Will, rather than let them marry and legitimize their son George Munro.

They "interact" many times a day with members of the public, solid citizens who are unconcerned about their plight and don't tell the police, who are also uninterested.

Powerful story. I’m an American. Most of my roots go back to Pennsylvania. I know I have several indentured servants who were my ancestors. Two of them, were indentured servants in Maryland, who I think ran away and founded a farm in the wilderness of Western Pennsylvania. I have one or two Scottish ancestors - not many. I’m pretty sure that at least one or two of them were actually the product of Highland clearances and or indentures. Sometimes when I go to Scottish festivals, I think about that stuff.

Bruce Gore has a few articles on the role of Presbyterians in early America. At the time of the beginning of the American Revolution there was just less than one million.

@@alexbirrell4568 thank you! That looks like interesting stuff to explore. My own ancestors at that time were pretty much all located in Pennsylvania. From what I what I’ve been reading, the majority of them were Presbyterians or reformed. Which I believe amount to fairly similar theological positions. Another large group were Lutheran, with a few Quakers thrown in. I didn’t know I had such an ancestral connection to Presbyterians until recently. I discovered that my grandmother and grandfather were both Presbyterians. My grandmother went to a German speaking. Presbyterian Church, in Philadelphia has a matter of fact. A few Scottish lowlanders who settled in Pennsylvania by way of Northern Ireland also arrived in my ancestral pool. So I’m really interested in John Knox and in the covenanters. I’m embarrassed to say I don’t know a lot about them beyond vague stuff from college classes.

Most countries have "modern slavery," which exists with the connivance of local people and sometimes law enforcement. It may ensnare the local underclass (minorities, runaway children) or those trafficked from abroad and force into debt bondage, prostitution or cultivation of illegal plants. Foreign slaves are likely to be treated by the police as criminals and not victims. This includes domestic servants brought in by diplomats, who are not allowed to change their employer, and children brought by in adults pretending to be related. Prostitutes who come to the attention of police in the UK are liable to have all the money in their possession confiscated. In some countries in Africa and Asia brick-making is generally done by slaves, as is commercial fishing. A lot of outsourced work is done for Western companies by slaves or, in China, prisoners doing forced labour.

Our magistrates and judges in this day and age, are still complicate in the abuse of our citizenry today

The fact that other people than African were treated as slaves, just tells people there were not enough 'white' people to become workhorses, so they went to Africa to get them. I've seen where Italians were treated as 'black' in USA and lynched for 'crimes'. All for greed, profit and sheer ignorance. My late father didn't know the whole tale, but he told us enough to know that people are not nice to their own, let alone another race when money, fame and fortune is on the line...

In your back story about Jamestown, you should point out that the original settlers were not farmers or anyone who knew how to fend for themselves. Thus the trouble they had surviving.

Who were those magistrates of Aberdeen who turned a blind eye to kidnapping and enslavement? Until 1975 that role was performed in the cities and burghs of Scotland by "Baillies," elected by town councillors from local worthies in the same way as Aldermen in England. In the 18th century councils would have been chosen by the burgesses, a small number of merchants and master craftsmen. No legal training!

In Adam Smith's book The Wealth of Nations, he describes the differences between living where the economy is growing rapidly and living where the economy is stagnant. He said that it was not uncommon for an American laboring man and his wife to live to see more than 100 descendants. Contrarywise in Scotland, a laboring man and his wife could barely raise two children to adulthood, in spite of having twenty children born, not counting homunculuses (children lost to miscarriage). (1776) 😮. That's pretty powerful motivation to emigrate. Forced emigration explains much about the culture of Virginia and the other slave states. 😢
