"When the first Africans arrived in Virginia in 1619, there were no 'white' people there; nor, according to the colonial records, would there be for another sixty years."
Theodore W. Allen
(Written after searching through 885 county-years of Virginia's colonial records)
Theodore W. Allen's "The Invention of the White Race," with its focus on racial oppression and social control, is one of the twentieth-century's major contributions to historical understanding. This two-volume classic (Vol. 1: "Racial Oppression and Social Control" and Vol. 2: "The Origin of Racial Oppression in Anglo-America") details how the "white race" was invented as a ruling-class social control formation and a system of racial oppression was imposed in response to labor solidarity in the wake of Bacon's Rebellion (1676-77), how the "white race" was created and maintained through "white race" privileges conferred on laboring class European-Americans relative to African-Americans, how these privileges were not in the interest of African-Americans or laboring class European-Americans, and how the "white race" has been the principal historic guarantor of ruling-class domination in America. (See www.jeffreybperry.net/_center_... )
"The Invention of the White Race" presents a full-scale challenge to what Allen refers to as "The Great White Assumption" -- "the unquestioning, indeed unthinking acceptance of the 'white' identity of European-Americans of all classes as a natural attribute rather than a social construct." Its thesis on the origin and nature of the "white race" contains the root of a new and radical approach to United States history, one that challenges master narratives taught in the media and in schools, colleges, and universities. With its equalitarian motif and emphasis on class struggle it speaks to people today who strive for change worldwide.
Jeffrey B. Perry contributed new introductions, back matter, internal study guides, and expanded indexes to Verso Books' new expanded edition of "The Invention of the White Race."

I get the feeling this is what they mean about keeping critical race theory out of schools.
I think that Theodore W Allen presented well documented history more than "theory."
@@seanahern647 So well documented that nobody's ever heard of it.
While it is true that Allen's work remains widely ignored by most academics, liberals and so called radicals (or used without attribution in other cases), Perry's talk is viewed by thousands every day on RUclips and reading and discussion groups are ongoing. @@hardliner7964
Simply Marxist propaganda nothing more.
It's not hard to enlighten the ones with such self hate they murder neighbors and cry oppressed victim
As tax payers, we should be demanding this be in high school history books. But ignorance is a lucrative commodity.
Blacks are obsessed with White people. They live in your head 24/7 rent free.
Blacks speak the White people's language, write the White people's words, wear the White people's clothes, drive the White people's transportation, use the computers, internet, and all technology invented by the White people. You use White people's money system, banking system, medical system, and listen to White people's music which is made with White people's musical instruments.
Obsessed!
So many speaking the truth nowadays but people stuck in the program 💯
Mark Twain said "It's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled."
I'm tripping how this is recommended now, especially with CRT about to hit the schools
It’s funny there was no such thing as white people before America was founded!
Shit get deep
The Caucasian race has decedants of anglos ,Aryan, etc.their has been no so called white people on this continent.people existed through out the Appalachian mountains. That's how Melungeons created their race. And Basque people have been in America before Columbus. Columbus ships sailed from Basque ports, and moorish Basque owned the ships Vikings are descendant of Basque people. And the way people divide time, is the conundrum of their demonstration. Interesting how people overlook my culture ,In which have been the true natives of Europe. Our language is intermingled with Algonquin native Americans. And our culture is spread out through out the nation before united States became the nation it is today. The eastern coast line is also known to be Cuba territory part of Asia before Columbus arrived to this land of United States. And their are maps with this information dating back earlier than 1600's. It is also in library of congress.united States has been known and settled before Columbus. Columbus is neither Italian ,nor Spanish , Portuguese. He is Greek. Nicolaous Yiplantis. Thank you and have a nice day

Perry's thesis of HH Harrison as the key figure in the birth of both class and race radicalism amongst Western Black thinkers & activists is powerful. Harrison is critically under-appreciated and under-studied, and Perry's work on him deserves much more exposure. This video is making me go dig his Voice Harlem Radicalism about Harrison out of my boxes.
Fast-forward 8 years and we find out how correct he was.
The new “Introduction” (in the new 2012 edition) to volume 1 of Theodore W. Allen’s “The Invention of the White Race” explains that the volume “presents a full-scale challenge to what Allen refers to as “The Great White Assumption” - “the unquestioning, indeed unthinking acceptance of the ‘white’ identity of European-Americans of all classes as a natural attribute rather than a social construct.” Its thesis on the origin and nature of the “white race” contains the root of a new and radical approach to United States history, one that challenges master narratives taught in the media and in schools, colleges, and universities. With its equalitarian motif and emphasis on class struggle it speaks to people today who strive for change worldwide. Its influence on our understanding of American, African American, and labor history will continue to grow in the twenty-first century.”
Allen argues that the “white race” was invented as a ruling class social control formation in response to labor solidarity as manifested in the later, civil war stages of Bacon's Rebellion (1676-77). To this he adds two important corollaries: 1) the ruling elite, in its own class interest, deliberately instituted a system of racial privileges to define and maintain the “white race” and 2) the consequences were not only ruinous to the interests of African-Americans, they were also “disastrous” for European-American workers, whose class interests differed fundamentally from those of the ruling elite.
In developing these theses Allen challenges the two main ideological props of white supremacy - the notion that “racism” is innate, and it is therefore useless to struggle against it, and the argument that European-American workers benefit from “white race” privileges and that it is in their interest not to oppose them and not to oppose white supremacy.” See www.jeffreybperry.net/_center__i__font_size__3__font_color__sepia___b_5__the_invention_of_the_br_white_116386.htm
Hey Doc, how can we get that Powerpoint?
the problem is that Marx's claim of the "edenic respites" of technology is a lie due to automation - as Professor David F. Noble exposes in his book "The Religion of Technology." Racism in the West is from Platonic philosophy as the book "The Racial Contract" exposes - and so it's a deeper problem than Marxism can address. The logarithmic and inverse exponential math is inherently racist!! Not that you have passed on excellent research. www.startribune.com/counterpoint-the-point-katherine-kersten-new-york-times-1619-project-both-miss/566192371/ thanks

The enemy is the Vatican not regular white people. Water in the 🇺🇸 has lead in it, hence why so many can't focus on small topics forget topics that take days to learn
When we finally open our eyes and our ears to the truth, we will be liberated 👁 I hope more people will find this and other videos like it. Only then, we can acknowledge the past and build a better future✊🏾

As a Afro American I would like to thank you for the enlightenment on this subject something I've been left in the dark with no understanding only to have a consciousness of hate due to limited information if more people like yourself expressed more information those who are seeking we probably could break that bondage .
You are not an Afro-American , you are Hebrew Israelite.
Lashawn Moore there is more history that he is not pointing out. He speaking on who whites are . But not Who you are or where you Came from before our people fleet into Africa after the fall of the Temple in Jerusalem.
Lashawn Moore Keep researching and digging into European records and other people's records for that matter. Don't listen to these birdbrains who are being wilfully ignorant by dismissing certain information just b/c the color of one's skin. There are many nations who wrote about the negro in their records.
What is an afro american?
franklin lescaille that’s so cringy, i hope you’ve learned better from when that comment was posted
This lecture is outstanding!! Great job Jeffrey B. Perry!
There need to be a movie about White Slavery along side Africans, and the Bacon Rebellion. Are make a movie called, "The Invention of the White Race," using the title. This will educated both Black and White people of today. You know the world is at its best when both sides team up together against the elite rulers.
Right, because Occupy Wallstreet went swimmingly.
No white europeans were enslaved by africAns 2 million in the Barbary slave trade Giles Milton white gold his a good book about this. By family or from Scotland and they were driven out of the highlands of Scotland in the ethnic cleansing of the Scottish tribes and made to work in factories in glasgow
ruclips.net/video/ppvbBY3ce8Y/видео.html&ab_channel=WORLDChannel This is the mini-movie based on Allen's research - thanks - on the invention of the white race.
The first woman in the Q&A is referring to the Berlin Conference (1884-85) that was based on imperialist ideologies than race . When European countries got tired of fighting to conquer each other and needing resources that could not be provided in Europe, they started to expand out in search of new territory. Each colonial power had different ways of colonizing the people the conquered and is a topic for another discussion and other readings.
European American had already established and reaped the benefits from slavery including a means of sustaining the US economy and were thus more focused on expandig the country westerward (Manifest Destiny) so they had very little interest in imperialism. That happens later with the fight against communism which the US believed posed an imminent threat to their economic structure that was based heavily on capitalist ideologies.
There's a plethora of literature to edify anyone seeking to learn more about that topic. I recently returned to the US after half a year working in Vietnam and the respect, appreciation, and kindness I experience is like nothing I've ever experienced in the US. No one engaged with me as a "black person." I was simply a American, a teacher, or a foreigner. If you're not Vietnamese, you are Britsh, American, Australian, Korean. No one is categorized by the color of their skin, only where they come from.
I have studied, worked, vacationed in 15 countries and counting an the only place my American nationality is hyphenated is in America. White people in America are simply called American but as the video explained so well, they are just as hyphanated as every other person of color in this country. Being American is a way of thinking, behaving, and believing that's influenced by culture heritage and experience. When I travel abroad my "race" takes a backseat or dissapears and it's my nationlity that prevails. Why? Because as the video and Allen's readingd explains so well, race is socially constructed not my culture.
Culturally, I'm African and American. My dad was African-American my mom is Liberian and I was raised in America. I am a mix of these three culture with African-American being a sub culture of American culture hence why you can't be African-American anywhere else but in America. European American is is not synonymous with White. White people in Europe are very different than White Americans and Italians could not be more socially/different than the Dutch lol. Don't get me started on how different the Poles are from the Irish and the Scottish from the French and so on and so on.
I searched for information discussed in this video because I needed to make sense of what I observe and experienced in my travels. Why it was I fared better working in Vietnam than I did in Sierra Leone. I identified more with the business culture in Asia than in Africa because the American business culture is more aligned. Culture is learned behavior.
European Americans are not born superior, they're taught by their family and encouraged by the larger society (other white Americans) through a structural reproduction process. If you observe white Americans around white Europeans you will see just how different they are as cultures. It's almost comical to see a European American trying to go toe to toe intellectually with a (White) European especially an Englishman lol. British people have a linguist cadence that's very different than Americans that takes a bit of time to get use to.
White people in America dont want or need that historical connection with Europe. They left Europe in search religious and social political. African Americans on the other hand, were stolen and carry conscious/subliminal thoughts of what could have been.
In a nutshell not all white people are the same and for that I'm thankful because Europe would be an awfully boring place if they were and eastern Europe would be just as popular a vacation destination as Western. The best advice I can give all people in America is to TRAVEL. This country compromised of so many cultures and traveling allows you to learn a bit more of the story as it truly is from at the source which is so enriching and beautiful🙂
Well said!
Thank you for sharing - my qigong master teacher trained in Buddhist meditation is African-American - from slave descendents but also native indigenous. So he traveled to Africa in the 1980s - he initiated into shamanism in over a dozen countries over a couple years. I'm talking about Jim Nance - see his "guidingqi" website and he was the teaching assistant of Chunyi Lin, qigong master from China. There is a great book about a Daoist qigong master living in a cave in Vietnam - a Daoist immortal - I think it's called my Fourth Uncle or something.
Yes my school buddy had 1960s activist parents who bonded with their University room mate from Zimbabwe - so my buddy encouraged me to travel. I went to the most traditional Berber village in Morocco - the women grew all the food and made clothes from the wild sheep. Humanure composting was used to grow the food. They were "white" from Wheat farming but had been kidnapped by the Arabs - as sex slaves - so all the women had tattoos on their chins. This was in 1997.

Thoroughly enlightening and liberating.
I thoroughly enjoyed your teaching on this hidden subject and many of the people, facts and figures you mentioned have never been so closely looked at and explained. Many thanks to you for your diligent work!!
thank you so much for your presentation. I watched this as recommended by a friend and am glad I watched it
Thank's for this video, if everybody in this whole Nation would know the truth, the cycle will be broken from being hate and racist, but you got some that don't won't to know the truth, but it's coming out more and more, Thank you again, cause this help me more and more who i am and where i belong,
He is basically breaking down, on how whites controlled and gave the Irish, Italians and poor whites their head start.
Ty
Sad part Italians wasn’t considered white until the 60s crazy stuff
James Edwards doesn’t make them non-white. The English identified with themselves. It was more culturally and geographical and well anglo.
@@jamesedwards4251 because they were late to the party .. so to speak
Yup
Outstanding historical and cultural analysis. It explains to me, as someone Irish and thus from the home of systemic colonisation, how the Irish in America became 'white' by participating in internalised racism of white supremacy, replaying their own wounds. It also explains why even progressive white Americans appear blind to issues of class and white centrality... and why working class Americans appear to act against their own best interests in backing policies supporting the 1%.
+cinnamongirl3121
As we all can see how these same people is still in the slave mentality but want this stuff to stay hidden, do you ever wonder why American history has always been dumb down, but they want us to think it is because black teachers, or black schools? It is teachers that has been ruling these schools with the white supremacy, and dumb teachers that were racist, I think people are really waking up, and has over the years tried to get better teachers, board members with un-bias opinions? Now with so much new technology and "some freedoms people can learn things that is not taught in most schools, from a different perspective, or from people with better education and knowledge because they specialized in them? The country didn't want to tell the real low down dirty piece of history of the making America, or Europe, it was whitewash as for as history in most American schools!
They made it a fairy -tale story, just think about it, around two to four hundred years ago, how long it would take to get information from one country to the next, compared to now? By the time people would get a story it would be months, years sometimes, it would be enough time in between taking over a country and doing all sorts of things, before anyone else would know about it? It is true how other whites treat these white people yet they take it out on people of color all the time, and is always searching to cause harm to a black person, what is wrong with those kind of white people? are they processed? They go against what is best then try to say everyone else is stupid that does not share the same views, then name calling when people speak out against corruption, and equality, these people want to hate anyone that does not hate black people, then try to call black people stupid? I have to say black people are better people than such, and they know them! Most people have evolved but there are some that is still like a retarded person or something, they will say anything and not be honest, back stabbers, and thieves it is in their blood and they fear education and hate of others for it! It is a few black people that are just as stupid and dumb down too, and it has a lot to do with things or the ways of the white man, because most black people are not of that kind?"
SpiritMattersTO Its always hard to put oneself in anothers place if you are not living it. Just like today with the Afro Americans lashing out at every white world wide. They don't understand how everyone was manipulated...in every way. We are so easily brainwashed and led astray.
Hindi Zummeri Just like dumming down the Education...they are deliberately keeping dumbed down teachers in the system. You can read about it. I will try to find a good video on this subject for you
CooCoopuffs Lash out at white people? There are 133 active chapters of the kkk and that doesn't include crookkked cops or various skinhead groups. Name me ONE group of black people that openly fundraise and plot to kill white people??????? I'll wait...........
Excellent survey of a fascinating topic! Clearly presented, and brimming with insights.
Jeffery, thank you for summarising a seminal piece of work
What I never understood is how poor whites could trust the rich whites not realizing that white supremacy has to keep down poor whites as well as blacks to remain alive.
"What I never understood is how the comon people of America cannot see that the mega-wealthy have to keep down the poor to stay wealthy."

Theodore W. Allen wrote -- “When the first Africans arrived in Virginia in 1619, there were no ‘white’ people there; nor, according to the colonial records, would there be for another sixty years.” See 13:03
For more on what Allen says see my article “The Developing Conjuncture and Some Insights from Hubert Harrison and Theodore W. Allen on the Centrality of the Fight Against White Supremacy” at jeffreybperrydotnet (top left) See full citation at 11:21
In 1619 there was no legal distinction of "black" and "white". That was created a bit later in Virginia, as a means of preventing solidarity between black and white workers against their common oppressor, and to facilitate the enslavement of the blacks. There were Europeans (English mostly) living in Virginia beginning in 1609. They brought their idiotic barely post-feudal social system with them, and created extensive problems for the Native people.
@@barrosserrano5787 Just more evidence that White is a club. sometimes you're in, sometimes you're out. Skin tone used to be the easy qualifier, but with a globalized world now- there's plenty of "White" brown-skinned and even darker-skinned people. The word "White" (as in, the club which is a social construct) will lose all meaning and reference to the color "white". "Girl" used to mean a small child of any sex, but in the year 2022 it means "young female child".
God bless you Mr Allen.
This is a great subject to discuss for the US. Or at least it was, and should have been moved past long ago. As a Canadian growing up i have to say watching the US deconstruct over the years has been painful and its sad.
The subject that should have been addressed long ago is that of the ruling class/elite/Papacy/European Family - all the same, and it's social programming of the US citizens. Always forcing slavery and racism down your throats while no one stops to realize only large scale land owners ('farm' owners) who were more often than not Government/Political British figures. The common 'white' man didn't own slaves or land and did low wage high labour jobs for the British elite that took over the US from the Spanish and French settlement.
These are the enemies of the people, esp in the US and should be the topic of discussion rather than allowing them to continually reprogramm the slaves to hate each other. The white, black, yellow, and brown slaves of the US: it's citizens.
Loagun : When or maybe I should ask who were the "Yellow and brown " SLAVES by law in the US? Also did the British create the "Jim Crow " area in US? I agree that the truth regardless should be explained in the order of response to how and why it happened. By law Asian and Mex. and so on weren't slaves in US. Correctness is very important and not to offend .

Theodore W. Allen tries to be precise with his words. His book is entitled “The Invention of the White Race.” Allen writes as follows:
“4. When, therefore, a group of human beings from "multiracial" (the anthropologists' term) Europe goes to North American or South Africa, and there, by constitutional fiat, incorporates itself as the "white race," that is no part of genetic evolution. It is, rather, a political act: the invention of "the white race." Thus it lies within the proper sphere of social scientists, and is an appropriate objective for alteration by social activists.”
See Theodore W. Allen, “Summary of the Argument of ‘The Invention of the White Race” (Part 1, No. 4) at clogic.eserver.org/1-2/allen.html
This topic is discussed in “The Invention of the White Race” Volume 1: “The Origin of Racial Oppression” in Chapter 1 (entitled “The Anatomy of Racial Oppression”) where Allen writes:
"Historically, “racial dissimilarities,” have not only been artificially used, they are themselves artificial. In colonial Hispanic America, it was possible for a person, regardless of phenotype, to become “white” by purchasing a royal certificate of “whiteness.” With less formality, but equal success, one may move from one “racial category” to another in Brazil where, it is said, “money whitens.” On the other hand, in the United States, the organizing principle of society is that no such “whitening” be recognized, whether by genetics occurring or by wealth attempted. In 1890, a Portuguese emigrant settling in Guyana (British Guiana) would learn that he/she was not “white.” But a sibling of that same person arriving in the United States in that same year would learn that by a sea-change he/she had become “white.” In the last Spanish census of Cuba , Mexican Indians and Chinese were classified as “white” ; but in 1907 the first United States census there classed these groups as “colored.” According to Virginia law in 1860, a person with but three “white” grandparents was a Negro ; in 1907, having no more than fifteen out of sixteen “white” great-great grandparents, entitled one to the same classification; in 1910, the limit was asymptotic: “every person in whom there is ascertainable any Negro blood ...[was to] be deemed a colored person.” As of 1983, the National Center for Health Statistics was effectively following the 1910 Virginia principle, by classifying any person as Black if either of the parents was Black. At the same time, in Texas the “race” classification was determined by the “race” of the father. Prior to 1970, a set of Louisiana court decisions dating back to the late 1700s had upheld the legal concept that “any traceable amount” of African ancestry defined a “Negro .” In 1970, “racial” classification became the subject of hard bargaining in the Louisiana state legislature. The Conservatives held out for 1/64, but “more enlightened” opposition forced a compromise at 1/32, as the requisite proportion of Negro forebears, a principle which was upheld by the state’s Supreme Court in 1974."
thanks for the info
Love your hat!!!
Mr Perry thank you very much for this video. More whites in america SHOULD listen to this, and learn why many blacks like myself feel the way we do about this land of hypocrisy and stop calling us the racist. Blacks cannot be racist, as we do not have the economic power, nor the political power to stop white supremacy. WE are reacting to the racist policies of america.. since being brought to these shores by force and not by choice.
Thanks again.
F.I. LOWE-PERRY The plan was there to create race wars in the future. Its all a part of the NWO plan.

Theodore W. Allen’s "The Invention of the White Race," with its focus on racial oppression and social control, is one of the twentieth-century’s major contributions to historical understanding. This meticulously researched, 800-page, two-volume classic, 35% of which is notes and indexes, presents contending positions forthrightly and seeks to address them in a very principled manner. I encourage people to read Allen in the original and to also look at the supplemental front and back matter in the new 2012 editions. I also encourage people to read “The Developing Conjuncture and Some Insights from Hubert Harrison and Theodore W. Allen on the Centrality of the Fight Against White Supremacy,” which is available at the top left at www.jeffreybperry.net
I don't think for a minute the term white race or any other shit you came up with is true.white privilege is partially true.however it isnt a way of keeping others down or doing it to stay superior.it is handing down from one generation to another. White people have always wanted our children to have better lives than ourselves.it is planning a future for our children that whites have always worked and strived for.one person calls it purposely holding down others and another calls it a caring father.it depends on which side your on.but our white ancestors werent evil people that planned to keep others from being successful.but they did wanna make sure there offspring had a good life.i have children and i want my kids to have a great life and to have as many advantages over others as possible.over blacks mexicans other whites and any race.am i a supremacist or a caring father to others probably racist. My kids would say a good dad. At the end of the day who's opinion matters most. Easy answer
@@adamshortnacy482 if you care for you children enough to promote and support a system of depriving others based on skin color especially if they have played a hand at building that which you have unlimited access to at their expense you are a very evil person and evil people have an appointment with death

Great lecture
The last I knew all humans bleed red. Nothing will change until people treat each other as red bloods.
Great presentation. I will subscribe. Thanks.
Thank you for the information
Facts backed up with examples and evidence. Nice video sir💯
I love how Jeffery answered that one white guy's question about post racism at 1:28:52. He nailed him with facts that post racism does exist, and wow was that a mouthful!
Thank you 🙏🏾
Well done
Very great presentation this was just very informative and flowed very well in such a short time. So African Americans are a buffer. If we remove the buffer from society i.e. authentic equal rights in society will there be a big uprising? Although to me, it seems the buffer is very slightly disappearing with the whole 1 percent movement
jessica jones, Good interpretation!
So
BLACKS have forgotten
I.S.L.A.M. destroyed them.

I don't refere myself as white nor do my countryman, all through i am 100% native european.
On that application your going to check white.
That native European stuff will only make them see you as a defector of their system so stop pretending. Plus there no such thing as 100 percent European.
People who rely on traditional educators' construction of knowledge or truth instead of engaging in deep research to find the pros and cons of their position will never open their eyes. This isn't new information; this is historical facts. This means that it has been there. However, what I find more interesting is that these things are obvious. They can deduce what is happening in society by using Hegelian dialectic-- if they can pull away from social media, news outlets, and the entertainment world. Thinking isn't difficult. Like anything else, it takes practice.
The American working classes --white-collar and blue-collar workers and PEOPLE ALL OVER THE WORLD have allowed the ruling class (politicians and the elite classes) to construct truth and knowledge and feed it to us. If people were not so snug with the way they are living and are LESS trusting of what they THINK they see and THINK they know about being labor abuses--wages, time off, few benefits, and hours worked, there would be united uprisings demanding employers treat workers with human dignity versus human machines. Employers treat people like psychopaths treat people, as things.
The working classes should rise up and DEMAND politicians and business owners pay decent wages WITHOUT allowing the status quo to increase the cost of products and services after providing the people APPROPRIATE compensation for sweat off their backs, "We the people" --the REAL meaning of that, would understand that power is in the hands of the 90% to 99% versus the 1%-10%. Social distinctions are smoke and mirrors used to distract the working classes from uniting and demanding basic FAIRNESS as the group responsible for keeping the economy going and the wealthy with their bank accounts like the Leaning Tower of Pisa.
NO GOVERNMENT official and NOT CORPORATE owners understand anything other than theMONEY they are not making and the accumulation of wealth. Staying home and demanding $17 per hour would show the powers that be who REALLY controls the economy and the profit potential of business owners. There IS NO NEED for violence. Honey gets you more than violence, and it will keep you alive longer. Demand fairness by staying in the comfort of your home and sending your employer a message via text, fax, phone, or email when they contact you.
The Founding Fathers did exactly that to England when they got tired of "working" for and paying Great Britain taxes they were not benefiting from. There is absolutely NO difference between a slave revolution, a class revolution, and the reason behind the Revolutionary War for the independence of the colonies and colonists. NONE. Back then, the colonies were Great Britain's bitch.
However, the Founding Fathers noticed the unfairness and realized that they were treated as less than human beings. They united against Great Britain as Great Britain's subjects or workers and developed a strategy to go against the Machine. They realized that Great Britain was blowing smoke up their collected ***** by pushing the #FakeNews that the colonists were basically British nationals.
A boss once said he was going to fire anyone who wasn’t white and then I said who’s going to do the actual work because he would have been left with mechanics and architects and no labor or helpers who did ninety seven percent of the work ! This boss got fired and I was chosen to be over all the minorities on the job site and they were Latino black Portuguese Cuban decent and they were great employees who did what they were asked when they were asked !

Great information.
But, in incorporating what we know about the various hidden Black Bourgeois factors like Sigma Pi Phi, as well as many of the early colonialists were European yet Europe itself was a multiracial place with many non-white skinned phenotypical Blacks… we may have had in the United States (aka the Virginia Company of London corporation which was far more than that latter named state) a very similar cast system as did middle and south hemisphere enslavement economies.
"Great information, but...."

They don't understand it's a complete system of both races. A mirror of deception playing both sides which go beyond economic, and politics. Closer to religion. PTTMH 💯
Back in those times the 1600s for every one woman there were 10 to12 men that had to do wit some of those laws that were made bc in some cases the English women were choosing free slaves or slaves over the British ruling elite. Thanks dr Perry for this great piece
This is what you choose as your “thoughts” to share? This is your dream, to communicate that white women have chosen blacks over whites in certain times and places? Wow, nice bro.. You must be proud.. Now your precious race and skin color(most important thing in your life) are adding white blood to your ancestry… because you choose white women over your black queens because they bully yall.
Your focus and choice of information to share says much about you.. you sound like a sad hypocrite racist to me..Brother..
Great video . Tha Brittney girl who asked the first question dont get it . its because they fear us ! They seen our inventions . our strength . plus we were here first and always.
What inventions? What strength? Black people have been dominated since they came into contact with other civilizations, from Egypt to America.
The out of Africa hypothesis has been debunked several times. Human remains far older than those in Africa have been found in the Mediterranean and middle east.
@@chillywilly9953 You are grievously misinformed! OOA is confirmed. Homo sapiens originated in Africa. And Africans built numerous civilizations. It is very obvious to anyone who studies Egypt that Egyptian civilization began in Upper Egypt, was in large part derived from the Nile Valley Neolithic (e.g., Badarian) and Saharan cultures, and was created by people we would today call "black".
Tell us what remains older than African ones are found anywhere? I keep up with anthropological information and know that you are wrong.
And are you actually unaware of the Ghana Empire? Aksum? The Swahili coast civilization? and the many others in Africa? Ignorance is no excuse for racism. LEARN and dispel your erroneous notions!
Our people were already living on those islands!!!!' Brown- skin beautiful- dark brown- skin beautiful- people"!!
I love my African Caribbeans but they were kidnapped, transported to those Islands and colonized just like African Americans. All of this was done by the Europeans.
+bittertruth Most of them were not kidnapped, they were traded into slavery by other Africans. You must realise, Africa wasn't full of uncivilised tribes. There were kingdoms with politics and war etc. So Europeans could not just waltz into a King's territory and just do as thy please.
+Bolu Olalekan Some were traded there is no questioning that point. But most were just taken from the Continent mainly from the coastal areas with no regard to the African's complaints. Those Kings did at some point had concerns about what was going on in Europe with the traded Africans, but by that time, it was too late to do anything to slow the slave traders down.
Many of those Kings were threaten and force to ignore and look the other way if they didn't want some of their blood family taken.
Remember the Europeans had guns and cannons and had no fear of the Africans.
Please don't get deceived by white revisionist historians and let them tell you that the Africans put out a "for Sale" sign for Africans and the Whites were just conducting a mundane business transaction. Some Africans were complicit but the Europeans were absolutely 100% complicit and sick with greed for profits in slave trading. At one point the bulk of the trading was between Europeans themselves, they couldn't give a damn about the African Kings anymore.
The Africans didn't just simply give up. For example the Zulus massacred British forces after they tried to invade Zulu land. And Ethiopia managed to stay independent, despite the massive advantage of Europe.The only reason why Europeans conquered Africa was due to the technological advantage of the Europeans.
www.bl.uk/learning/histcitizen/campaignforabolition/abolitionbackground/abolitionintro.html (Read the second paragraph)
+Bolu Olalekan You're correct, the Zulus managed to hold off the British from being conquered and the whole of Africa was eventually taken over. Which stands to reason that the minor trade transactions between some Africans and the Europeans were minuscule compared to the outright (I'll say it again) kidnapping of Africans and scattered them all over North, South America, and the Carribean. The Europeans tech advantages galvanized their power, so they didn't need to trade with Africans anymore they just plundered and kidnapped at their pleasure.
How could Africa not be conquered when the fruit of Africans was taken away. Meaning mostly the youth of Africa between 12 and 45 were whisked away.
Africa was devastatingly weaker from the slave trade and unfortunately helped by a very small group of African leaders. They couldn't stop the slave traders if they wanted to.
bittertruth But you must remember, by time the Europeans started to conquer Africa, slavery was abolished and was only being practiced in the New World. The only reason why the Europeans could conquer African during the 19th century was because of the technological advances of the Industrial Revolution.
wow. that just changed my life.

Theodore W.Allen describes how the “relative unemployment rate of Blacks to whites in 1929 had been about 1 to 1,” but by 1947 it was 2 to 1. See 27:33

One thing is for certain, my ancestors were treated like any other white person when they immigrated to Massachusetts in the 1860s....
Nice
a must study this info correct
Best response at 2:02:34.
Anyways I do plan on reading the original text now. Thanks for the inspiration in that regard.
This is "real education", and could unite every one.
I like how you gloss over the word Indian but put emphasis on popular misnomers like negro and African American. When you are well aware that the author used those words interchangeably. Good video though
I hate the word radical. What's true should be appreciated as such. There is always a JUST FIGHT against the forces that destroy the principals of truth and harmony
Can you imagine a world were the education system thought the same?
Sweep the legs.
But we are all gods children no matter what the colour of a person's skin
Pale white skin, blue eyes, and blonde hair are not natural to the earth, hence the need to cover up during sunny days due to lack of melanin pigment to protect from the natural environment.
Don't matter we all pay bills we eat the same food we live and we die same as every one else no matter If your white black or brown back to the earth we go
That may be so but we all live and we die who cares about colour or blood type we go back to the earth our mother to fertilize the earth and life carrys on
@@upliftsouls they may have blue eyes pale skin but death has no preference of skin colour or blood type male or female we are the same
Not true pale skin people die like us all
Should be more comments for sure
What did he explain in short and simple term can someone reply?
The “white race” was invented as a ruling class social control formation in response to labor solidarity as manifested in the latter (civil war) stages of Bacon’s Rebellion (1676-77). To this he adds two important corollaries: 1) the ruling elite deliberately instituted a system of racial privileges to define and maintain the “white race” and to implement a system of racial oppression, and 2) the consequence was not only ruinous to the interest of African Americans, it was also disastrous for European-American workers.
That's kind of pisses me off why would they let Jamaicans have so much space all over black Americans
Because they are freedom fighters

Imagine when y'all really realize we not Africans, and we don't like being called Africans and Africans don't look like us, we are not black either. Black is void of light and is a pitful thing. I'm aboriginal so are my brother and sisters. Great video appreciate your work
Does not aboriginal break down into NOT original? And you're wrong, black is not a pitiful thing, But white supremacy very much is.
The almost absence of racism in the carribean is due to the fact that Spain's lar was inmersed with christian values of equality that even lead to slavery defined as a 9 hr job, where the enslaved thad the right to bring the masters to court for mayor offenses. Spain had a more advance society than the USA.
The ultimate question becomes who created he them🤔! And why?
He says in the presentation and it's explained in the book
Very very interesting at 1:04:47 - but if we add the lens of “false flags” atop of these sorts of massacres, was it really the Indians who killed them? Or could it have been a “boston tea party” cosplay contingent that did it to foster the excuse that rescinded the paid workers provisions in 1622, March 22. (Numerology/Gematria 1622, 322, 223)
…that cosplay could have been made possible if we consider that BOTH the native populations AND the COLONIZING populations has significant portions of their people who shared the same phenotypes. There are scholars and researchers who have unpacked these times and found that European societies were never homogeneous, many had significant “africoid” populations. At the same time, many kinds of Ancient peoples of the now labeled Americas had very similar “africoid” phenotypes indigenous populations there. If we remove the modern political perceptions of what we rationalize what the peoples looked like and dig deeper into the evidence, future researchers can begin to see how by use of military soft tactics versus the now Roman-ized “Anglo” conquering all-powerful military the overthrow of the continent happened.
