The overall issue is systemic racism yes. The major powers ravaged civilizations, but as a people Africans have folded countless times. Tribalism gets us no where. Relinquishing rule and rights for material gain has hindered us across the diaspora. Africa is still colonized by the same players, add China into the equation now. If we found a way to connect melenated people and educate ourselves wed be in a better position. All resources are still in mother Africa yet the descendants reap no benefit. Tragic.

Liberal globalisation for capital gain never stopped. If you're into Liberal Globalisation you must be eternally grateful for those pioneering, techno-progressive slavers, for without them, you would not be here and Liberal Globalisation may never had happened. I don't like Liberal Globalisation, it shits on indigenous populations. more, More, MORE, new, New, NEO JUNK for the rich. and now even The Poor! You're THE Virus of Humanity, Liberal Globalisation Fanz.

Slavery was never abolished it was only modernized.
All, but the 1% elite are slaves to a system they have created.
Humanities entire way of life has long been the greatest goddamned scam ever devised.
The almighty dollar has long decided the length of links that make up our chains.
Only in the realm of man does the illusion of wealth and money allow the weakest of his species to rule over the strongest.

Did Africans capture and sell Africans? Where is the culpability? Hindsight is 20/20 but it seems like the African Kingdoms had 250 years to see the inhumanity in it, I guess they didn't, rum and guns were more important. It's a good thing the industrial revolution came along otherwise Africa might be empty now.

Not just Africans - this is at best - and incomplete history - and at worst - propaganda. The Europeans FIRST looked to their own country England, and then Ireland, and Scotland - before they looked toward Africa for slaves. White slaves were the first in the American colonies. This is a misleading video.

And there are flights going back to THE HOMELANDS every day. If you hate the us and the people so bad. Just get on a plane, there are no chains on you now. Stop being a victim and start contributing to society and make your ancestors proud and their suffering worth something

Africa STILL. has the most appalling slavery issues and does not intend to stop. India too has this terrible trade too but it is NEVER addressed or spoken about. Dont believe me? You have a PC. look it up. on YT and dozens of sites.

Yea like if I was in charge, I would t have packed them so tight and taken way better care of them. I would have provided BET, HBO and Jordans to make them feel at home.

There you have it middle classes: share some of what you have with today's poor or feign guilt about something that happened two hundred years ago.
Choose!

You should do a video instead of what even fewer textbooks told you about, the 1-1. 25 million europeans the Barbary pirates took as slaves
