To my brothers and sisters, continue seeking the truth and proper historical accounts of our people. The past 500 years have been harsh on us but remember, this is just part of our history, not our entire history, we will rise again and be as strong as those who came before us, so we make the future of those who will come after us better. Remember, death isnt the end, be strong now so u will be a stronger ancestor.

There were non-Black slaves all over Africa but mostly in Muslim kingdoms. Most of these slaves were more like servants and very well treated and taken care of. The ones who were real slaves were the Europeans and Americans captured by North Africans (mostly) from the 16th(1500) century to the 18th (1700) century before the Atlantic trade started. Muslim North Africa would capture and enslave (Christian) Europeans and Americans. That is part of the reasons why white slave traders feared to go inland because they would hear stories of white people being captured and forced to work. And also why they started arming their ships or/and would be accompanied by royal navy vessels because of them constantly being raided by Africans who would free their peers but capture and enslave everybody else. It is recorded that England lost at least 400 sailors a year to Mulsmin slave raids during the 17th century and that over 200 white americans captured between the Mediterranean and the Atlantic were enslaved in Algeria in the late years of the 17th century. Of course this is known only to a few as the WS have been trying hard to erase that part of the history pretty much like Egypt Pharoahs have been whitewashed. But fear not, the age of aquarius is here and the revelation of the truth has started. Everything that has been hidden or erased will come through and be revealed. "Truth is like fire it cannot be hidden under dry leaves." (African proverb).
@Judah Israel 😂 go troll somewhere else. Rudeness eclipsed your intellect and left you with no arguments as you didn't read and understand my post cause nowhere in that post I have undermined the Atlantic slave trade. But let me waste a little time schooling you a little bit more even if I'm certain you will come back more rude. Do you have any idea of what a galley slave is? Go look it up. Do you know what a barbary pirate aka corsair is? Look it up as well. Except for women that were mostly sold as concubines, men sold to be slaves laborers would eat nothing else but rancid bread and water. They would be beaten on the soles of their feet and their bellies at their masters'will. Very few had their own houses as they would all sleep together in their master's barn. They would be killed, tortured, or mutilated (yes cutting the hand that stole or the legs attempting to escape or the tongue that refused to talk or say the right thing was a reality). One of the most known victim of that slave trade is Miguel de Cervantes who wrote "Don Quixote". Him and his brother Rodrigo were sold to slavery in Algiers after being captured by Turkish pirates. What saved him from death, mutilation, or torture were the letters of commendation for the king of Spain he carried that magnified his importance. Regardless of his many attempts to run away he and his brother never suffered any physical abuse. His adventure is well documented in Christians records in churches in Algiers as well as Spain. North Africans would go as far as Iceland raiding villages and cities capturing slaves. The "White" slavery was predominant from the 1500s to the 1700s. But in the 1200s Sundiata had already proclaimed the Manden Charter (go look it up lol) and Sundiata was a muslim descendant of Bilal Ibn Rahib who was himself born into slavery and freed by Abu Bakr. Bilal became one of the most trusted and loyal companion of prophet Muhammad Bilal is one the most illustrious name in the Islamic history ans his quest for pluralism and human equality in Islam is well documented. He is the reason why Muslims would not enslave other muslims. Thus muslims brought from other empires would be treated as servants and would not be considered or treated as slaves. Most times it was an equal exchange as Africans would be sent the same way for a couple of months or years. From the 14th to the 16th centuries, Timbuktu (Mali) was an important hub for trade and islamic knowledge and its famous library has records of the slave trade. We all know the impact of the Atlantic slave trade that spanned over 4 centuries and involved at least 12 million enslaved Africans. It wasn't the purpose of this video which focused on African history that hasn't been said and isn't common knowledge for everyone. So just enjoy the video and go do some research. Thank you🙏🏾

@Dr. Krieger not relief from labour. It’s all about money. Only the upper class own slaves Thats how its always has been. Having slaves makes your profits far higher than hiring payed workers. Simple as that. If that wasn’t the case, slavery essentially would have never existed. Its not like any old farmer just buys some slaves when he gets lazy. Rich people buy them when they want more profits.
@@Usthereout Slavery and the warfare that ensued because of it, weakend these tribes and opened the door to colonialism. Which historical documents and books are YOU reading?
Can you do a video on the cape coloured people or estevanico and his interactions with native Americans and what natives thought of Africans. I’m curious about that being both African American and Apache.
Actually Circassian slaves........blue eyed blonde slaves from Caucus were highly rated in the Islamic world as concubines and mercenary even in East Africa to be specific the Zanzibar Sultanate.......
You say that the Mamluks were Turkish, but do not mention those from the Caucasus and the Balkans who comprised a very large proportion of these slaves. Why omit the White Mamluks? You complain, quite rightly, that African history has been distorted, but are you not guilty of the same?
Kanem-Bornu Empire and Northern Nigerian (Belgian, French Jewish and Turkish slaves in Agadez, northern Nigeria and Mali) muslim states also owned white European slaves bought from North Africa. Source : Du lac Tchad à la Mecque and The Cambridge history of Africa: From c. 1600 to c. 1790
Brilliant video with unheard-of information. Here's a question for you hometeam or maybe even a video topic: if trade and regular contact (more so than just an annual pilgrimage) was happening between West Africa and the Muslim East, how was this achieved? Would it go north by sea, south under the Sahara to the Nile, or straight through the desert?
The Prophet sullahu alayhi wa salam said ” I was sent to the red and the black . It is known that verily it is not said to the Zanj and to the People of Habasha and the people of Nuba that they are white, nor are they red( pale white) and there is not a name for them except the blacks. And we have learned that verily Allah azzawajal sent the Prophet to all of mankind. And to the Arabs and non Arabs , all of them. And if he said ‘I was sent to the red and the black ‘We don’t have with us red or white he was sent to us . We only have in our time the the saying of the black. And mankind does not come outside of these two names (The Red and The Black) and if the Arabs are from the red then they have entered in the numbers of the people of Rome, the slaves and the people of Faaris and Khorasaan. And if they were from the blacks they have derived for them a name from our names. It is only said to them that they are Adam and brown black so they have entered the same (category) with us in our beauty like how the Arab refer to females and males, masculine (as a group). And if the Prophet, may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him knew the Zanj and the people of Habasha and the people of Nuba were not red( pale white) or white and that they are black. Allah the all mighty sent (the Prophet may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) to the black and the red. Then without a doubt he made us and the Arabs the same. And we can be the jet blacks without them. And if the name black falls upon us then we are pure blacks and the Arabs purely resemble us . Therefore we are the first on the list in this call to Islam.
can you do a video on the Kru tribe of Liberia? i recently did a african ancestry and supposedly according to them on my dads side i share genetics with them apparently idk how truthful but the little research i did and info i found was pretty interesting. the entire history of liberia is interesting. how africans born in america went out there and took over n stuff. i also noticed a lot of kru people who are from liberia making videos claiming to be hebrew israelites and people arguing with them over it. it’s hard to find solid information on them. for me at least
This is our history. Not all blacks believe that we were Vikings,Egyptians, Israelites and wtv but ik this is our history I’m not ignorant of it and thankful for teaching it
“O People, listen well to my words, for I do not know whether, after this year, I shall ever be amongst you again. Therefore listen to what I am saying to you very carefully and take these words to those who could not be present here today…. All mankind is from Adam and Eve, an Arab has no superiority over a non-Arab nor a non-Arab has any superiority over an Arab; also a white has no superiority over a black nor a black has any superiority over white except by piety and good action…” p.b.u.h. Prophet Muhammad. Those who didn’t and don’t follow his teachings shouldn’t be called Muslims or represent Islam.
Slavery was common among all. In Judaism the gentile animals (non Jewish) only purpose is to serve the Jewish. Slavery wasn't race specific or a unusual practice for any empire. Whether they were Pegan, Jewish, Christian, Muslim or black, brown, white. Not only withe Christians but also black Christians like in Abyssinia had slaves. To take Muslims as exclusively unpeacefull is a absolutely distorted way of looking at it. In Islam every human has the sane human value in the eyes of God. The abolition of slavery was something the Ottomans did officially at tge 1900th but practically way earlier. Also the Christians had such discussions when they where ruling in the Roman empire although they never finalized it. To say Muslims are more violent or unpeacefull is absolut fairytale way to look at it.
Naw, Hypatia was a Hellenistic Neoplatonist philosopher, astronomer, and mathematician, who lived in Alexandria, Egypt, then part of the Eastern Roman Empire. She was a prominent thinker of the Neoplatonic school in Alexandria where she taught philosophy and astronomy. Why would he talk about hepatitis?, this the history channel lol
I think it maybe be hard to do this topic, because most thing in that era were being helenized, so it might be hard to find actual pictures or representations of the actual Hypatia who was very much so melanated.
I can think of eastern empires (Kush, Aksum) and western empires (Ghana, Mali, Songhai) but I don't think any of them stretched across to the other side.

No all the ancient world had slaves except they didn't take them based on race or color but usually were war captives or had debts and most of the time the could pay their way out and were treated much better than what we know in the Americas in some cases they even were promoted to higher positions based on their talents
@@emanomer2288 true. Slavery existed scince the beginning of humanity. But the trans-saharan and especially the Trans-Atlantic slavery took it to the next level.
@@realone2020 That doesn't mean black people were part of Greek culture, mythology and the empire as a whole. The Greeks conquered Egypt which was under Persian rule. Greeks had no contact with Kush whatsoever lol.
I don't know why think it specifically good that Turks were enslaved or are overly enthusiastic about it. Before Turks entered the middle east as conquers the first Turks ever to enter the middle east or Africa came as slaves. Long before the Ottoman empire was a thing. Slavery wasn't race specific or a unusual practice for any empire. Whether they were Pegan, Jewish, Christian, Muslim or black, brown, white. Before the Ottomans conquered to the north these empires had slavery as well. In slavic eastern Europe slavery and furry trade were big sources of income. When the Ottomans came the slave trade rout in the south was cut off and the Ottomans took those. Furry trade was further north. The KievRus and the Zaporozhian Sich had slaves as well by the way. Not only withe Christians but also black Christians like in Abyssinia had slaves.
They are not turkish they are turkic. Turkish means citizen of Turkey, the mamluks were turkic slaves from Crimea (Russia) and other places like Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan.
it was still a strong kingdom i think. one thing for sure is that there was an empire in the region prior to Mali and Songhai which we currently don't know much about.
Nothing new here,I mean,really, look up Mamluk,for your self,and it clearly states,knightly military class/caste.Also these "Mamluks"were mostly Turkic peoples,Eygtian Copts,Abkhazians,Georgians.Many Mamluks were also of "Balkan orgin,that consists of Albanians,Greeks,and South Slavs.Now do you know what and who are Slavs?That's right Eastern Europeans,and that's where the word "slave"comes from.You guys still confuse in regards to Moors and the whole slavery paradigm.Read White Slavery in the Barbary States,by Charles Summer,this gives you the "Christian"account of slavery by the Islamic Barbary States,of Morocco (Kingdom, not the Empire)Algeria, Tunia,Egypt, and Libya.Peace:)
As a South Slav myself, I can tell you that the word "Slava" means Glory in all Slavic languages. The word Sklave/Sklaven is the Latin/Germanic word for slaves way before the Slavs even came to the Balkans (Balto-Slavic people's inhabited modern day Ukraine, Belarus and Western Russia.) Later expanding and being forced south and west because of the Huns. As for Slavery in of itself, the first recorded ban on slavery in Europe was on the 27th of January 1416 in the Ragusan Republic, today's city of Dubrovnik, Croatia. So that's a little fun fact.

@Dr. Krieger not relief from labour. It’s all about money. Only the upper class own slaves Thats how its always has been. Having slaves makes your profits far higher than hiring payed workers. Simple as that. If that wasn’t the case, slavery essentially would have never existed. Its not like any old farmer just buys some slaves when he gets lazy. Rich people buy them when they want more profits.
@Dr. Krieger like i said. It’s all about money. Cheap labour.
It was always a benefit. They sold slaves for profit. It's trade. Colonialism is what weaked Africa
@@Usthereout Slavery and the warfare that ensued because of it, weakend these tribes and opened the door to colonialism. Which historical documents and books are YOU reading?
It was tho west Africa relied on slaveey
The throne room description of mansa suleymans court was super interesting
Can you do a video on the cape coloured people or estevanico and his interactions with native Americans and what natives thought of Africans. I’m curious about that being both African American and Apache.
Actually Circassian slaves........blue eyed blonde slaves from Caucus were highly rated in the Islamic world as concubines and mercenary even in East Africa to be specific the Zanzibar Sultanate.......
Send the source please 👀
You say that the Mamluks were Turkish, but do not mention those from the Caucasus and the Balkans who comprised a very large proportion of these slaves. Why omit the White Mamluks? You complain, quite rightly, that African history has been distorted, but are you not guilty of the same?
Mamluks were Turkic and Circassian slaves.
i would love to see a video about the jollof empire or the wolof tribe! :)
This information needs to be taught in schools.
Great video. Quality content
Here b4 the hatred love your work Chicago is councious n not all about blood thank u bless u your a inspiration
Kanem-Bornu Empire and Northern Nigerian (Belgian, French Jewish and Turkish slaves in Agadez, northern Nigeria and Mali) muslim states also owned white European slaves bought from North Africa.

Brilliant video with unheard-of information. Here's a question for you hometeam or maybe even a video topic: if trade and regular contact (more so than just an annual pilgrimage) was happening between West Africa and the Muslim East, how was this achieved? Would it go north by sea, south under the Sahara to the Nile, or straight through the desert?
Thank you for this great video Im from Mali 🇲🇱
The Prophet sullahu alayhi wa salam said ” I was sent to the red and the black . It is known that verily it is not said to the Zanj and to the People of Habasha and the people of Nuba that they are white, nor are they red( pale white) and there is not a name for them except the blacks. And we have learned that verily Allah azzawajal sent the Prophet to all of mankind. And to the Arabs and non Arabs , all of them. And if he said ‘I was sent to the red and the black ‘We don’t have with us red or white he was sent to us . We only have in our time the the saying of the black. And mankind does not come outside of these two names (The Red and The Black) and if the Arabs are from the red then they have entered in the numbers of the people of Rome, the slaves and the people of Faaris and Khorasaan. And if they were from the blacks they have derived for them a name from our names. It is only said to them that they are Adam and brown black so they have entered the same (category) with us in our beauty like how the Arab refer to females and males, masculine (as a group). And if the Prophet, may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him knew the Zanj and the people of Habasha and the people of Nuba were not red( pale white) or white and that they are black. Allah the all mighty sent (the Prophet may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) to the black and the red. Then without a doubt he made us and the Arabs the same. And we can be the jet blacks without them. And if the name black falls upon us then we are pure blacks and the Arabs purely resemble us . Therefore we are the first on the list in this call to Islam.
Arab are white, brown & black it's a language, a culture & religion not a race.
8 thumbs down are R-WSists.
Would abubakari be the richest man in history if he never renounced his throne to make a pilgrimage to South America ???
Not many people know this part of history, but West African Muslims reached the "New World" a century before Columbus did.
The Mali empire was very educated and circular even the Islamist
Secular or circular?
Do the Mossi Kingdom
Yeah it should be talked about more that Ethnic Arabs, Turks, And Persians were also slaves at times by Non Middle Easterners
Europeans and Africans were slaves to the Arabs for 800 years. 💀
can you do a video on the Kru tribe of Liberia? i recently did a african ancestry and supposedly according to them on my dads side i share genetics with them apparently idk how truthful but the little research i did and info i found was pretty interesting. the entire history of liberia is interesting. how africans born in america went out there and took over n stuff. i also noticed a lot of kru people who are from liberia making videos claiming to be hebrew israelites and people arguing with them over it. it’s hard to find solid information on them. for me at least
You should go to the instagram page called Judah_awakens28_ he has a lot of proof from books and images.
This is our history. Not all blacks believe that we were Vikings,Egyptians, Israelites and wtv but ik this is our history I’m not ignorant of it and thankful for teaching it
Yeah keep
Going I like this one 💯
Can you do a video on medri bahri, on how they were practicing democracy and voting system way before Europeans were doing it
That those explain why Mali has some people with Turkish and arab features
Where? I don’t it at all
Well well who knew
“O People, listen well to my words, for I do not know whether, after this year, I shall ever be amongst you again. Therefore listen to what I am saying to you very carefully and take these words to those who could not be present here today…. All mankind is from Adam and Eve, an Arab has no superiority over a non-Arab nor a non-Arab has any superiority over an Arab; also a white has no superiority over a black nor a black has any superiority over white except by piety and good action…” p.b.u.h. Prophet Muhammad.
Those who didn’t and don’t follow his teachings shouldn’t be called Muslims or represent Islam.
Thank you bro!
Thank You
I'm waiting for your movie on african history or Cush history
and muslims keep saying that their religion is the religion of peace.
Slavery was common among all. In Judaism the gentile animals (non Jewish) only purpose is to serve the Jewish. Slavery wasn't race specific or a unusual practice for any empire. Whether they were Pegan, Jewish, Christian, Muslim or black, brown, white. Not only withe Christians but also black Christians like in Abyssinia had slaves. To take Muslims as exclusively unpeacefull is a absolutely distorted way of looking at it. In Islam every human has the sane human value in the eyes of God. The abolition of slavery was something the Ottomans did officially at tge 1900th but practically way earlier. Also the Christians had such discussions when they where ruling in the Roman empire although they never finalized it. To say Muslims are more violent or unpeacefull is absolut fairytale way to look at it.
All before European Concord‘s right?
Hey are you going to do a video on Hypatia?
Naw, Hypatia was a Hellenistic Neoplatonist philosopher, astronomer, and mathematician, who lived in Alexandria, Egypt, then part of the Eastern Roman Empire. She was a prominent thinker of the Neoplatonic school in Alexandria where she taught philosophy and astronomy.
Why would he talk about hepatitis?, this the history channel lol
I think it maybe be hard to do this topic, because most thing in that era were being helenized, so it might be hard to find actual pictures or representations of the actual Hypatia who was very much so melanated.
Are there any ancient african empire maps that can be put in a frame?
Do you have sources or links that you can give us
I read many years that Ethiopian Empire stretch all the way over to West Africa at one is true or not
I can think of eastern empires (Kush, Aksum) and western empires (Ghana, Mali, Songhai) but I don't think any of them stretched across to the other side.
@@aetherial87 Thank you
Where they Slaves or Servants- Afrikans didnt Dehumanize the people they Ruled!!!!
Sometimes they did depends on the rulers demands at the time
The attributes the king had are all the opposite of a muslim should have expecialy at that time cause Islam was still strong practised. Bit strange but like you said the man that wrote it never been there and never met him. So it is batal or with other words weak and just he said she said kind a thing
Sad to see Mali in irs present condition
What's the name of the music at 2:00?
GREAT....
*Indentured Servitude
This is great history
Can you do a video on Caribbean obeah?
YES
I have a question for you...How did the beginning of life start and why are things the way that they are, for example why is our BLOODLINE the GREATEST INVENTORS, the GREATEST TEACHERS, the GREATEST athletes, the GREATEST musicians, the GREATEST dancers, the GREATEST comedians, the GREATEST dressers basically the GREATEST in EVERY aspect plus we’re the SMARTEST people that EVER lived so why are we at the bottom of society EVERYWHERE we are located?MUCH LOVE brother
I bet you already know the answer to that question
@@naturallyspiritual7256 Ok I just want to here others thought is that a problem and after send them to some information hopefully you’re not a grown man trying to be confrontational over the net especially over a comment by the way this is my first and last comment to you
@@awareyah6146 Im saying, I bet you know the answer as in a "wink wink". Not confrontational. Jebus calm down.
@Siafu EARS TO HEAR is this verse I dropped look for this comment by ONEKBABY... get back at me on that thread after you’re finished with everything MUCH LOVE brother
Because you were never " GREAT" lol 😂😂
Mansa Musa was also the greatest slaver in all of Africa.
About the slavery of non africains
What's the intro song?
How’s the social climate in Mali? The US news is pretending there are riots every week. I was thinking about visiting there next year when I go to Senegal.
@@destinyforever I am from Venezuela with a mix of Amerindian EU blood that I know of so far. Would have to ask someone else, yet great question to ask and respect your comment.
We have too France slaves in Mali, Guinea and Senegal
Turkish worriors we respect you for destroying the byzantine empire in 1453
You mean... slavery didn't begin with the transatlantic?
No all the ancient world had slaves except they didn't take them based on race or color but usually were war captives or had debts and most of the time the could pay their way out and were treated much better than what we know in the Americas in some cases they even were promoted to higher positions based on their talents
Slavery have been in existence for thousands of years
@@emanomer2288 true.
Slavery existed scince the beginning of humanity.
But the trans-saharan and especially the Trans-Atlantic slavery took it to the next level.
But why European said African don't have history
Is a lie Africans were part of even the Greek culture
@@nisigate Lies... Africans had nothing to do with Greece lol 😂😂😂😂
@@nchoupo3771 ancient Greece had many close interactions with Egypt and Nubia
@@realone2020 That doesn't mean black people were part of Greek culture, mythology and the empire as a whole. The Greeks conquered Egypt which was under Persian rule. Greeks had no contact with Kush whatsoever lol.
@@nchoupo3771 Greeks definitely did have contact with Kush through mostly mercenaries and trading
I at work and cannot watch video right now. If Mai enslaved Turks/ Ottomans good on Mali. The Turks enslaved white and black people.
I don't know why think it specifically good that Turks were enslaved or are overly enthusiastic about it. Before Turks entered the middle east as conquers the first Turks ever to enter the middle east or Africa came as slaves. Long before the Ottoman empire was a thing. Slavery wasn't race specific or a unusual practice for any empire. Whether they were Pegan, Jewish, Christian, Muslim or black, brown, white. Before the Ottomans conquered to the north these empires had slavery as well. In slavic eastern Europe slavery and furry trade were big sources of income. When the Ottomans came the slave trade rout in the south was cut off and the Ottomans took those. Furry trade was further north. The KievRus and the Zaporozhian Sich had slaves as well by the way. Not only withe Christians but also black Christians like in Abyssinia had slaves.
Why were they seeking non african slaves?
Everybody check out KEITH NEWSOME (Mr Black hot fire)👍🏿
Turks were soldiers and commanders not the slave you imagined as poor or something else.
Timbuktu
For s time aruba had turkish people
Memphis deepay on youtube
They are not turkish they are turkic. Turkish means citizen of Turkey, the mamluks were turkic slaves from Crimea (Russia) and other places like Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan.
Elite soldiers not slaves
No they were slaves
Even though they could have been elite soliders, they were still slaves.
@@nurhayat81 MERCENERIES
@@papazataklaattiranimam
SLAVES
@@papazataklaattiranimam losers who destroyed by arabs and europeans are proud about 30 armed Turks who fight better than themselves
Turkish mani soliders no slaves turkish sultan
If this is true, then y'all should pay huge reparations to Turkey before asking for reparations in the USA.
Turkey enslaved Africans as well. Nice try.
They are kipchak turks from Ukraine, not ottoman turks, mamluks were kipchaks
No problem, but the reparations the USA have to pay, will be enormously higher. Lol smh
@@bigheadgenious7827 lol why??
@@nchoupo3771 Lol why are you here?
Slavery is not a form of democracy even if you have non african slaves participating in the victimization ...
So what was in Mali before Islam?
it was still a strong kingdom i think. one thing for sure is that there was an empire in the region prior to Mali and Songhai which we currently don't know much about.
Wagadu Empire
Jesus Christ is God and not a prophet.
You pagan
Nothing new here,I mean,really, look up Mamluk,for your self,and it clearly states,knightly military class/caste.Also these "Mamluks"were mostly Turkic peoples,Eygtian Copts,Abkhazians,Georgians.Many Mamluks were also of "Balkan orgin,that consists of Albanians,Greeks,and South Slavs.Now do you know what and who are Slavs?That's right Eastern Europeans,and that's where the word "slave"comes from.You guys still confuse in regards to Moors and the whole slavery paradigm.Read White Slavery in the Barbary States,by Charles Summer,this gives you the "Christian"account of slavery by the Islamic Barbary States,of Morocco (Kingdom, not the Empire)Algeria, Tunia,Egypt, and Libya.Peace:)
As a South Slav myself, I can tell you that the word "Slava" means Glory in all Slavic languages. The word Sklave/Sklaven is the Latin/Germanic word for slaves way before the Slavs even came to the Balkans (Balto-Slavic people's inhabited modern day Ukraine, Belarus and Western Russia.) Later expanding and being forced south and west because of the Huns.
As for Slavery in of itself, the first recorded ban on slavery in Europe was on the 27th of January 1416 in the Ragusan Republic, today's city of Dubrovnik, Croatia. So that's a little fun fact.
