This is so spot on. All our textbooks focused on Egypt as the one and only civilization in Africa. So much so that a lot of us grew up thinking Egypt and Africa were two different countries/continents
@@jonny_apocalypseii1051 actually, white scholars do tell the lie that Egypt is not a part of Africa. They do teach this lie in public schools, as I am a teacher certified to teach social sciences. Because I do not agree with the lies told in the public schools textbooks, I refuse to teach this subject.
While I can resonate with some part of your script, I feel you were disingenuous talking about Africans not being a part of the slave trade. Every African empire was built on the backs of slaves, and in our interactions with the foreigners, we traded them off for the items they produced. At the feverish peak of the global slave trade, Africans were kidnapping one another and selling them off to slavery. That was the story of Queen Nzinga of Matamba and Ndongo, Joseph Cinque, and many more. You need not infuse lies in your story to make Africa look even more victimized. It's already apparent what the colonialists did.
I don't think he was trying to claim slavery was not a part of pre-colonial african society, just that it was not the same kind of extreme racialized slavery of the atlantic slave trade, and that trying to conflate the two by simply saying "well black people enslaved other black people too" is fairly disingenuous. Of course all empires did and do employ slavery of some kind or another.
@@elowin1691 0:06 literally says that this idea is a lie right here.... ironically, some african kingdoms, like the congo, were very rich off the slave trade, and if they had done anything but trade slaves, and made other economic investments with that money, they could have been a very powerful and long lasting kingdom. they were so wealthy from slavery, and intelligent (as much as you can be about trading human lives) about it too, they would hold back slaves until the harvest season, until europeans were really willing to pay up for them, then release them for the increased prices all at once. with all that wealth, they could have done anything, or atleast tried. and much like how oil states today only do oil, all they did was trade slaves, until europeans stopped buying.
"...the disingenuous idea that 'black people' sold 'black people' into slavery. I frequently speak about this oversimplification as we cannot apply 21st century pan-African concepts to 17th or 18th century peoples. The overwhelming majority of African people back then identified in full with their own culture and linguistic group, and not by skin color or phenotype. So what's been implied by that statement is A-historical at best." You're coming at the human historical phenomenon of slavery with a 21st century, European-influenced perspective. It's one thing to say that slavery existed in wealthy, often capitalistic empires in some pre-colonial African countries. It's one entirely different thing to say that "black people enslaved black people". This concept of "black" was completely foreign to people living on the African continent before people invading several parts of the continent sought to psychologically, socio-culturally, and religiously dismantle the idea of a person living on the African continent, reducing them to subhuman and of a cerain color: black. There was no global, traumatized collective of "black people" who strived to pick up the pieces of the overwhelming thousands-if not millions-of African cultural norms, religions, and languages back then. That is now. And your perspective is now. Take some time to listen to his words before you bring out your thoughts and dilute the truth. The only "victim" of this narrative is the person who insists that history should be simplified because our ancestors "did bad things too". The African continent is too big and diverse for that.
Biggest lie is africa the motherland everything Africa has came from the Americas or was Modeled after America, Africa stole our Gold , Cacao , Camels , Pyramid technology but somehow America has most ARTiFACTS but AFRICA is the Mother.....
Id say the original comment is right. Every commercial I've seen on tv growing up, and all the info in history class I learned said that Africa was poor, and not modern like the rest of the world. But they never say that Africa created the outline of how to be a modern human being, africans have been exploring the earth since waaay back before we considered ourselves modern humans. and somehow they consider africans nomads and shit. It's just crazy. 🤦🏿♂️ The Earth is home.. how does that not make sense.

It was propaganda religious stores they told. Even the Queen of England in 2020 announced the Jesus was NEVER White. The Bible if FULL of African more than any nation.
Having grown up in Africa, I can testify that my (previously held) racial inferiority thoughts were rooted from other black people around me telling me whites are more superior. We were raised by our black parents who themselves never experienced slavery or such, that whites were more important, thence we had to watch our conduct towards them. And how we address them was to be different and submissive towards white people. And like you said, its an idea that has gradually dissipated, but its residual effects still linger. For instance here in Zimbabwe, the Shona slang word to refer to your Boss is MURUNGU, which directly translates to WHITE PERSON, and we even use MURUNGU on the blackest of Bosses lol...I have to say, I have no internalized or outwardly expressed hate or malice towards white people, I love them just as much as I love my fellow black brothers cause to me, race doesn't matter, you just have to be a good person. Anyways, love the videos man, very insightful and educative. You even taught me something I didn't know about the Great Zimbabwe ruins. Thanks a lot.
If "murungu" is related to the Swahili "muzungu" (which has the same meaning) then in its origin it comes from "dead person" (as dead people are more pale than living people).
I lived in different parts of Africa and I'm sad to say this is true, the North people have been mythologised and to this day are treated with deference when fellow citizens are treated disrespectfully. Of course sometimes this is a matter of relative wealth or power dynamic and sometimes it is diplomatic, but it's very damaging.
Murungu is not muzungu .word muzungu was first mentioned when vasco dagama returned to malindi from India , he was ask 'where have u been'? , vasco dagama has learned kiswahili before going to India , he answered, 'nilieda muzunguko' so they called him muzungu ,someone who go round the world and come back relating all white as muzungu because they would go and come back .Murungu, mean owner of rungu ,rungu is type of crown club.

The desire to find acceptance of other worldly cultures has caused us to be naïve to our own creation. The refusing of oneself has proved to encapsulate our being and until we break free in realization, we are doomed to accept any lie that has been proposed about our identity. I really appreciate this obviously logical and truthful information. It is almost impossible to find in a sea of cultural degradation.

He would not have had any freedom to teach outside the horrible history book. Lessons about Afrikan history is very well controlled even in college. I had to learn the truth on my own.
I've had meetings with my high school History Teachers and Social Studies teacher why are we only learning about Martin Luther King whom I named my son after. Why do we learn of the KKK in school and not the Black Panthers a white teacher said the Black Panthers were short lived!! I grew up in a pretty racist place where in school I was a part of black population that was less than 1 percent. I would be be called a ninja any day then they would try talk to me cuz I use to be extremely light skin you could see the veins in the side of my head. I was almost raped one night he offered rides then one day the guy jumped out to attempt me to force me in the car then my mom came with my big Dog Apollo. It was night time I was taking a driver's class. There was always something going on. My drawn out point is they told us our African History is too extensive they didn't have time to learn all of our history. So they taught about mostly peaceful black people except Malcolm one of my son's name sake's. It was hard growing up in Lansdowne in Baltimore County in Maryland where they were still burning crosses when I was in school.
"The slave trade has been the ruling principle of my people. It is the source of their glory and wealth. Their songs celebrate their victories and the mother lulls the child to sleep with notes of triumph over an enemy reduced to slavery." - King Ghezo of Dahomey's reponse to the British attempting to end the slave trade.
I am of Akan heritage, Ivory Coast - this definitely happened, the Akan went from buyers of slaves to selling slaves as the dynamics in the Gold Coast and the New World changed. Thus, the Akan people played a role in supplying Europeans with indentured servants, who were later enslaved for the trans-Atlantic slave trade.
yeah how else did mali spread so much gold as they traveled to egypt the king dumped so much money into each kingdom on way and they all had economy inflated cause he gave so much wealth away from his slave empire
At the time our ancestors didn't identify with the wider Akan linguistic group, rather with tribes, my ancestors are also Akan and were sold by other Akan (Ashanti and Fante), while Akan culture survives in some ways in our New World culture today, because we came from all over West Africa it's a mixture of various of Western and South Western African cultures.
" indentured servants".... not likely they were captured by almost always black people, enslaved and then sold to whoever had the money or goods or kept as a sign of power.

a grate video bro, as a Sudanese African you made me more proud of my ancestors, also I wanted to remind you of one of the earliest civilizations and written African languages, the Ethiopian Gi'iz language from which the Amharic and the Tigrai languages descended
The opening of this video is very odd. You seem to be forgiving or provide an out for the African tribes that captured and sold slaves just because they were a different culture of African tribe. That way of looking at things would also completely forgive/provide an out for the Europeans that bought those slaves. The trouble with trying to separate the tribes into different cultures back then is that the modern western world does not do that. With many movements broadly stating "black lives" or "people of color", which groups all black people together regardless of their origin, and this allows anyone to do the same, including when they we talk about the past when some groups enslaved others and sold those slaves to Europeans. There are some great and fascinating African civilizations without a doubt, however most of the well known ones can't be separated from slavery, like pretty much all civilizations from the past.
@@sullafelix649 African countries and tribes enslaved eachother. And unlike the "black people sold their own kind" is trying to suggest, they did not view these cultures as their own, they viewed them as "other", and being born into a world where being the strongest and most dominant meant the best chances of survival, they enslaved echother. Americans treated black slaves worse than their livestock, as they were seen as vile, not human, or not worthy to be considered human because of their skin colour. There was a hatred and anger towards them, hence the atrocious and torturous acts of cruelty, and hence the enjoyment many slave owners took from inflicting pain and torture. African tribes enslaving eachother was merely just animals fighting for their and their offsprings success and survival. Americans enslaving black people was about racism. That's why it's problematic and disingenuous to say "black people sold their own kind into slavery". As someone pointed out earlier, it's like somebody explaining the holocaust as white people committing genocide on white people. It's a misleading oversimplification of what actually happened.
I'm not sure, but i doubt the slaves were treated as poorly as Africans in America tho. It's like people saying racism isn't a thing because Irish people were enslaved too. Yes... But not with the same amount of hatred. So much hatred that a war was fought over it, and segregation and Jim crow persisted.
Precisely. This video could well be full of lies, brainwasher's lies to make black people hate all other races and embrace materialistic greed, nothing to promote family values or human values.
I would like to hear HomeTeamHistory and Thomas Sowell (senior fellow at Stanford University's Hoover Institution) discuss the disingenuous idea that black people sold other black people into slavery. Slavery was an acceptable institution throughout most of human history, and Africa was no exception. Long before the Europeans on the west cost and Arabs of the east cost arrived Africans were fighting each other and taking slaves from each other. In this regard their history was no different than the rest of the world. Neither the Europeans or the Arabs traded exclusively in African slaves. The Arabs were particularly fond of light skinned slaves. The native American nations (tribes) were highly advanced for the time and fought each other and took slaves from each other well before the European settlers arrived. The plight of Africans as slaves in American and the African slave trade is in no way unique to history.
Dude Sowell would absolutely wipe the floor with this clown. Everything HTH does is pure unbridled indulgent fantasy. Completely disregards reality to justify his own prejudice on world history derived from the institutionalized sense of victimhood and the inferiority complex.
HTH just changes the definition of "African" and "slavery." That's how he is able to make the claim. It is extremely disingenuous of him to do this and is completely misleading people.

Thank you for this, it is fascinating. I am a white guy from Australia, and we were taught absolutely nothing about Africa and it’s immensely various cultures.

Yo I love history, but I feel like the stuff we do in school is just way too plain & simple. Like we're taught about Hitler & American and European history, but not really about the core origin of black people. So I appreciate this channel for educating people, myself included, about the history of our people and such on. Keep captivating us with this new source of enlightenment. We appreciate it.
This has been the standard in American schools for pretty much the entire history of education. In the Caribbean students are taught Caribbean history first, with the Europeans clearly illustrated as invaders and the Africans clearly drawn as captive and eventually freed immigrants. The teaching of American history should start with the Native tribes and move out from there for a full context, with the wider world history - not just European - brought in.
well, what do you consider the "core origin" of "black people"... is it different from that of other colours of peoples? Cultures may have core origins and defining influences from others... but "people" ... At least I have never heard of a "core origin" of a people.
I was working on a project for a D&D game where I was cataloguing real-world historical weapons and armor by region. I found a lot for Europe, East Asia, South Asia, and the Middle East. Then I turned to Africa, unsure if I would find much. I was blown away by the scope of ancient African empires like Benin and Kush. Why do we never learn about those in world history?
Bret Terry, Europeans were involved in elitism and colonialism, and many still are. If they taught those that they were enslaving about the richness of their African cultures, then those enslaved would have resisted more so than they did. Why would the slavemaster teach the slave that the slave's ancestors were intelligent and had an advanced culture? This is also why even white supremacists in the U.S. don't want history books teaching the real history of their "Founding Fathers" and other facts which show how racist and unjust this system really is. 12. ruclips.net/video/ActFHRI77vE/видео.html (Slavery, Christianity and the Black Exodus from the Church)

You speak of “lies” while deliberately lying…interesting. Quite literally the first forms of slavery existed between Africa and the Middle East. The Sahara slave trade said to have traded 16- 28 million Africans, for which they were immediately castrated… Mansa Musa used slaves to mine gold and salt and he gained his entire wealth due to slavery. He took 12,000 slaves with him to Mecca as well as bags of gold and 60,000 men as a means to promote his strength and wealth. It led people to Africa, for which they themselves wrote about and saw slaves as a critical part of African culture, which people documented earlier than Mansa Musa’s time. Dahomey literally fell to the French in part, because they refused to end slavery. They fought to hold onto it as long as possible. The British were the first country to actually wage war against slavery of black Africans being transported across the Atlantic…for which many sailors lost their lives. Demand doesn’t work if there is no supply. That supply was ample and already pre-rounded up. But if it makes you feel better by lying to yourself and others…do you.

The dark contenent idea is largely due to the fact that despite having more people and thus inter tribal conflict, they never developed technology. For example at 2:16 the pyramids of Egypt and Stonehenge were built 2,000 BC You can say Africa had tech but no one is arguing that. The point is that they were 1,500 years behind the rest of the world and didnt have a good reason like the Americas where they were completely cut off from development and trade of tech

I researched form of African writing for a book I'm writing. I found out what I already knew. Egypt wasn't the only African civilization with a form of writing. Thanks for confirming this and giving me more knowledge. I will definitely become a supporter to ensure that we keep getting these videos.
@@hsfilms695 what do you mean? I'm talking about the actual Egyptians, you know they aren't black right? They are their own race, by saying they were black is taking away from Egyptian history. It's the same thing with cleopatra. A lot of ppl think she was also of color, either black or Egyption bit she was actually Greek. Sorry I love history I mainly study Roman history because it's my favorite but thats also why I know.about Egypt, their history crosses paths more than you would think. Don't get me wrong I love African history too just the correct 1. I'd say my favorite story is the one of the slave who ended up being a samurai, I mean how bad ass is that 🥰😍
@@Mystic0_0 The ancient Egyptians were blacks.. They are not a race of their own..The were many blacks I Greek history including Cleopatra.. Greek was a mixture of white and blacks. The same with Rome. You don't love black history cos if you do you won't deny the presence of blacks even in Greeks achievement talkless of Egypt that was predominantly blacks and true Africans before they were invaded. I repeat Cleopatra was black and not only her ,there were more blacks in Greek history and achievement. It is all hidden in your books but I have read them...
@@hsfilms695 I feel like I really need to clarify with you that I'm not against black history. As you know I'm sure, the first person to really bring Rome to their knees was a black General the great Hannibal. So what I'm saying is if you want to celebrate black history as you and every1 should, I just wish it was accurate info is all im saying
Africa is a continent, many countries, languages, cultures, including Egypt. There is a huge diversity within African people. We learn little about "Africa." We do not learn about the amazing histories of the individual countries within Africa. We need to learn about the cultures and histories of the world to heal the ignorance and bias that divides us. And yes, this was the most horrible lie, you are right. 💔
It was a stupid statement to unleash on a group of people. It has impacted both African people living in north America and Europe but I have found that it impacts those individuals who were raised on the continent but choose to migrate here to the USA as adults. I work in healthcare and 15 years ago, I had heart to heart conversations with the women I worked with about straightening their hair. I remember saying to them; 'you attend church regularly and claim you embrace God.' They would shake their head's and agree with the statement then I would counter with; 'then why are you straightening your hair?' They would give me every excuse for why they did it, but my response to them was that they defiled the idea that they were made in the image of God if they embraced the straightening of their hair for any other reason but fashion. Anyway over the past 15 year's, they have gone from stick straight presses and relaxers to cornrows, box braids and everything else in between... and it is a beautiful sight to see.
@@jodrew1845 How is straightening a woman's hair an affront to God or a anti-Christian thing to do? I do not understand your argument. Some white women straighten their hair. What about wearing make up or coloring one's hair? Are these things an affront to Christianity?
@@jodrew1845 An affront to God to change your hair? Really? So white women who straighten, perm, dye? Every woman who covers her grays is offending God? I don't think so. What a load of guilt to dump on women!
Man this is deep! There are so many inconsistent ideas about “Africa “that have followed me my whole life. They followed my mum while she was Growing up in Uganda. They followed my grandmother, my great grandmother and others in my family of Ugandan heritage. That due to the tone of skin colour (because there’s only one skin colour in Africa apparently) we have been singled out as needing saving from ourselves Is a great injustice. So many of the horrors that have been perpetuated on the diaspora of Africa can indeed stem from the barbarism of religion. Fantastic video thank you
Yep hate religion. Ain’t done nothing good, especially compared to the negatives. We shouldn’t need it to treat each other and life kindly and with respect.
The idea of the "Curse of Ham" is just as pernicious as the equivalently Christian idea the Men are superior to Women, because God made Adam first, and then used one of Adam's bones to make an "assistant" for him. And the teaching that God doesn't want women to speak in church, or preach. And that "women just tempt men into sin".

Greetings to you! My great grandmother was sold to a chief in the Kpelle tribe l, she was also pregnant with my grandmother who also grew up a slave. I asked my mother " Why?" She said they treated widows bad in those days and some people were sold for a bag of salt. So my ancestors were a part of African slavery. The Europeans were selling each other too...they forget to mention that.
The Ham theology had me baffled for years...then my eyes were opened...We were lied to...but also we neglected to really look at the genealogy because it tideous to read.
i dont know why people dont get this. The African 'sellers' may not have known the end destination but ,yes, they did participate. The Arabs were the Middle men and the Europeans the first customer.
@@blue_moon6490 my stepmom is Irish and Scottish and my biological Dad is 3rd generation German descent. I am well versed on European slavery. The thing about being biracial I see both sides of the equation and slavery of African by Europeans was brutal.

Today people of African descent are still mistreated all over the world and have to fight to just be treated equal by people of European descent worldwide.
Great ...very enlightening. It hurts me when I hear my black brothers speak about themselves as if they are inferior. Getting them to recognize the truth has been a difficult task. Hopefully videos like these are shared so that our people can learn the truth about ourselves
Matathias, brothers and sisters have been programmed to call each other "N*gga" and "b*tch" and "hoe." And if you try speaking to them, as I have periodically, they may listen or they may make an excuse or get angry. But when they walk away, they're surrounded by friends, family, and a culture of ignorance that inundates them in such terms, so they most-likely revert back to using these terms again. The best way to get delivered from such nonsense is to have a divine revelation and born again experience. Without God, we're lost on so many levels. (John 3:3,5, 2nd Corinthians 5:17.)
Just to get you a bit thinking: So somebody who imigrates to a foreign country, learns the language, adapts to its customs, gets the citizenship, raises his/hers kids in that country, pays taxes doesn't belong to that country? How about black americans? Are they Americans or Africans? In addition, didnt human kind originate from Africa? Therefore, everybody is to some degree "African". About these South Africans: They were born in Africa, their parents were born in Africa, they got the citzenship of South Africa. At some point you have to acknowledge that people migrate and have always been. And just because of their race doesnt fit the majority, you want to exclude them? What about the emmigrated "Africans" & "Asians" in Europe? Are they supposed to never feel at home? According to your logic, the answer is yes...
I have never found such credible and deeply intelligent concatenation of very hard to find historical truths that proves how human culture has been lost and how it should be told. Thank you HomeTeam
Thank you so much to highlight Black African history. It’s actually so underrated and a lot of questions about antique Africa still remains in my head. Also, I asked my history teacher if Black Africans actually had antique past and history and he told me they were just tribes and savage people. I was kinda hurt but still made my researches and landed here ! I’m so happy now
If it makes you feel better, every "race" was tribes and savage people at different points in time. Both Romans and gaulic people are "white" yet Gauls we're considered barbaric by the Romans when they pillaged, rapaed, and enslaved them. You're teacher seems dumb, which speaks volumes to the standards on becoming a teacher lol.
@@FlagWaverFlagBearer The point is that negative practices and primitive customs did exist in Africa, like the Kingdom of Dahomey. So the idea that Africans were primitive is not based on inventions but on practices that existed in Africa.

Interesting assessment. I agree those of African descent should not be viewed as being cursed or their culture as less advanced as those of European descent. Instead we could take a closer look at the amazing feats accomplished by humanity in general. We are all connected and I hope one day the world will see humanity as a whole, all colors and creeds working together for the future. The things we are capable of accomplishing together far exceeds the potential of those that wish to disconnect themselves from the single tree of life that is humanity.

Anyone that think he said " africans didnt sell other africans" did not actually watch the video. He stated that the concept of a black race in todays modern terms was not carried back then. So when you say that "black people sold black people", you are decontextualizing the fact that they were separate peoples. You throw away away their distinctions. This is never done for whites. For example people speak of how the irish were treated, how the italians were treated etc. But when it comes to the argument or oversimplification of africans capturing other african tribes people use the terms 'blacks" lumping them all up by race. If you dont get it maybe youre ignorant or maybe your racist.

The main problem is calling ti "african culture", since it's a huge continent three times the size Europe. Nobody for instance talks about the vikings as "european culture", they call it scandinavian or Norse culture. Sure if it's even mentioned in context of "european culture", it is always mentions as part of a whole. Which is never done (well atleast in "the average person" circle) when it comes to Africa. Nobody would talk about the marvels of engineering, architechure and art in Constantinople during the 900s AD and conclude that this made people in modern day Sweden part of an "advanced" culture. In Sweden you still had nomadic tribes (the Sami) and the people we call "vikings" where mostly farmers, living in small villages growing roots and raising cattle. Did the swedes know of Constantinople in the 900s? Well, yes they did, but that's besides the point. I'm sure the Zulu knew about other nations and peoples far away from them aswell, but they had no affect on their daily life, just as Constantinople had no affect on the daily life of the average swede. Like, Egypt is closer to Sweden than it is to South Africa. We can't talk about "african history" unless we start actually braking down the continent into spheres of locations, people and cultures.

You're absolutely right. Africa is so huge that the mind struggles to comprehend its size. "Like, Egypt is closer to Sweden than it is to South Africa. " This blew my mind.
I happened to come across this video, while browsing on RUclips. I must say "CONTINUE" producing these kinds of video. We are always been undermined nor overlooked by other (collaborators). Claiming that we can't think for ourselves or do anything to improve our situation, to extend being called uneducated. To a point where we don't even study about our history, with such video or insight would be helpful to our upcoming generation. To know where we come from and where/what we were trying to aim for. Look knowledge is an eye opener. I know there would be some, thinking that I am using strong language. That's not what I am trying to achieve here, but to say "It's about time someone like you, tell a tale of who we are and where we come from" maybe years from now we could see more and more African history being taught in schools. Keep up the good work brother, much love 🥰.

@@asmrbully6980 wow lmao where you thought it was ?
While I can resonate with some part of your script, I feel you were disingenuous talking about Africans not being a part of the slave trade. Every African empire was built on the backs of slaves, and in our interactions with the foreigners, we traded them off for the items they produced.
At the feverish peak of the global slave trade, Africans were kidnapping one another and selling them off to slavery. That was the story of Queen Nzinga of Matamba and Ndongo, Joseph Cinque, and many more.
You need not infuse lies in your story to make Africa look even more victimized. It's already apparent what the colonialists did.
I don't think he was trying to claim slavery was not a part of pre-colonial african society, just that it was not the same kind of extreme racialized slavery of the atlantic slave trade, and that trying to conflate the two by simply saying "well black people enslaved other black people too" is fairly disingenuous.
Of course all empires did and do employ slavery of some kind or another.
@@elowin1691 He outright said Africans didn't partake in the slave trade. Racialized or not, Africans did.
Legit comment. Glad to see a voice of reason.
@@elowin1691 0:06 literally says that this idea is a lie right here.... ironically, some african kingdoms, like the congo, were very rich off the slave trade, and if they had done anything but trade slaves, and made other economic investments with that money, they could have been a very powerful and long lasting kingdom.
they were so wealthy from slavery, and intelligent (as much as you can be about trading human lives) about it too, they would hold back slaves until the harvest season, until europeans were really willing to pay up for them, then release them for the increased prices all at once. with all that wealth, they could have done anything, or atleast tried. and much like how oil states today only do oil, all they did was trade slaves, until europeans stopped buying.
"...the disingenuous idea that 'black people' sold 'black people' into slavery. I frequently speak about this oversimplification as we cannot apply 21st century pan-African concepts to 17th or 18th century peoples. The overwhelming majority of African people back then identified in full with their own culture and linguistic group, and not by skin color or phenotype. So what's been implied by that statement is A-historical at best."
You're coming at the human historical phenomenon of slavery with a 21st century, European-influenced perspective. It's one thing to say that slavery existed in wealthy, often capitalistic empires in some pre-colonial African countries. It's one entirely different thing to say that "black people enslaved black people". This concept of "black" was completely foreign to people living on the African continent before people invading several parts of the continent sought to psychologically, socio-culturally, and religiously dismantle the idea of a person living on the African continent, reducing them to subhuman and of a cerain color: black. There was no global, traumatized collective of "black people" who strived to pick up the pieces of the overwhelming thousands-if not millions-of African cultural norms, religions, and languages back then. That is now. And your perspective is now. Take some time to listen to his words before you bring out your thoughts and dilute the truth. The only "victim" of this narrative is the person who insists that history should be simplified because our ancestors "did bad things too". The African continent is too big and diverse for that.

Id say the original comment is right. Every commercial I've seen on tv growing up, and all the info in history class I learned said that Africa was poor, and not modern like the rest of the world.

Having grown up in Africa, I can testify that my (previously held) racial inferiority thoughts were rooted from other black people around me telling me whites are more superior. We were raised by our black parents who themselves never experienced slavery or such, that whites were more important, thence we had to watch our conduct towards them. And how we address them was to be different and submissive towards white people. And like you said, its an idea that has gradually dissipated, but its residual effects still linger. For instance here in Zimbabwe, the Shona slang word to refer to your Boss is MURUNGU, which directly translates to WHITE PERSON, and we even use MURUNGU on the blackest of Bosses lol...I have to say, I have no internalized or outwardly expressed hate or malice towards white people, I love them just as much as I love my fellow black brothers cause to me, race doesn't matter, you just have to be a good person. Anyways, love the videos man, very insightful and educative. You even taught me something I didn't know about the Great Zimbabwe ruins. Thanks a lot.
If "murungu" is related to the Swahili "muzungu" (which has the same meaning) then in its origin it comes from "dead person" (as dead people are more pale than living people).
@@baytep9148 Not sure of any relation to Swahili but I wouldn't rule it out. Interesting stuff.
I lived in different parts of Africa and I'm sad to say this is true, the North people have been mythologised and to this day are treated with deference when fellow citizens are treated disrespectfully. Of course sometimes this is a matter of relative wealth or power dynamic and sometimes it is diplomatic, but it's very damaging.
Murungu is not muzungu .word muzungu was first mentioned when vasco dagama returned to malindi from India , he was ask 'where have u been'? , vasco dagama has learned kiswahili before going to India , he answered, 'nilieda muzunguko' so they called him muzungu ,someone who go round the world and come back relating all white as muzungu because they would go and come back .Murungu, mean owner of rungu ,rungu is type of crown club.

I've had meetings with my high school History Teachers and Social Studies teacher why are we only learning about Martin Luther King whom I named my son after. Why do we learn of the KKK in school and not the Black Panthers a white teacher said the Black Panthers were short lived!! I grew up in a pretty racist place where in school I was a part of black population that was less than 1 percent. I would be be called a ninja any day then they would try talk to me cuz I use to be extremely light skin you could see the veins in the side of my head. I was almost raped one night he offered rides then one day the guy jumped out to attempt me to force me in the car then my mom came with my big Dog Apollo. It was night time I was taking a driver's class. There was always something going on. My drawn out point is they told us our African History is too extensive they didn't have time to learn all of our history. So they taught about mostly peaceful black people except Malcolm one of my son's name sake's. It was hard growing up in Lansdowne in Baltimore County in Maryland where they were still burning crosses when I was in school.

"The slave trade has been the ruling principle of my people. It is the source of their glory and wealth. Their songs celebrate their victories and the mother lulls the child to sleep with notes of triumph over an enemy reduced to slavery." - King Ghezo of Dahomey's reponse to the British attempting to end the slave trade.
Okay. But that's just one African Kingdom. The Kingdom of NRI, for example, never practiced slavery.
I am of Akan heritage, Ivory Coast - this definitely happened, the Akan went from buyers of slaves to selling slaves as the dynamics in the Gold Coast and the New World changed. Thus, the Akan people played a role in supplying Europeans with indentured servants, who were later enslaved for the trans-Atlantic slave trade.
so we can get reparations from Africa?
yeah how else did mali spread so much gold as they traveled to egypt the king dumped so much money into each kingdom on way and they all had economy inflated cause he gave so much wealth away from his slave empire
At the time our ancestors didn't identify with the wider Akan linguistic group, rather with tribes, my ancestors are also Akan and were sold by other Akan (Ashanti and Fante), while Akan culture survives in some ways in our New World culture today, because we came from all over West Africa it's a mixture of various of Western and South Western African cultures.
" indentured servants".... not likely they were captured by almost always black people, enslaved and then sold to whoever had the money or goods or kept as a sign of power.

a grate video bro, as a Sudanese African you made me more proud of my ancestors, also I wanted to remind you of one of the earliest civilizations and written African languages, the Ethiopian Gi'iz language from which the Amharic and the Tigrai languages descended
The opening of this video is very odd. You seem to be forgiving or provide an out for the African tribes that captured and sold slaves just because they were a different culture of African tribe. That way of looking at things would also completely forgive/provide an out for the Europeans that bought those slaves.
The trouble with trying to separate the tribes into different cultures back then is that the modern western world does not do that. With many movements broadly stating "black lives" or "people of color", which groups all black people together regardless of their origin, and this allows anyone to do the same, including when they we talk about the past when some groups enslaved others and sold those slaves to Europeans.
There are some great and fascinating African civilizations without a doubt, however most of the well known ones can't be separated from slavery, like pretty much all civilizations from the past.
quite wrong
@@f_youtubecensorshipf_nazis Please elaborate
@@sullafelix649 African countries and tribes enslaved eachother. And unlike the "black people sold their own kind" is trying to suggest, they did not view these cultures as their own, they viewed them as "other", and being born into a world where being the strongest and most dominant meant the best chances of survival, they enslaved echother.
Americans treated black slaves worse than their livestock, as they were seen as vile, not human, or not worthy to be considered human because of their skin colour. There was a hatred and anger towards them, hence the atrocious and torturous acts of cruelty, and hence the enjoyment many slave owners took from inflicting pain and torture.
African tribes enslaving eachother was merely just animals fighting for their and their offsprings success and survival. Americans enslaving black people was about racism. That's why it's problematic and disingenuous to say "black people sold their own kind into slavery". As someone pointed out earlier, it's like somebody explaining the holocaust as white people committing genocide on white people. It's a misleading oversimplification of what actually happened.
@@f_youtubecensorshipf_nazis Maybe you need to read the comment again.
I'm not sure, but i doubt the slaves were treated as poorly as Africans in America tho. It's like people saying racism isn't a thing because Irish people were enslaved too. Yes... But not with the same amount of hatred. So much hatred that a war was fought over it, and segregation and Jim crow persisted.
A lie is a lie but the danger in the lie is when people want to believe in them.

But you can't say a lie is a lie if people believe them if the majority of the people who hold the power tells the lies to keep there power.
I would like to hear HomeTeamHistory and Thomas Sowell (senior fellow at Stanford University's Hoover Institution) discuss the disingenuous idea that black people sold other black people into slavery. Slavery was an acceptable institution throughout most of human history, and Africa was no exception. Long before the Europeans on the west cost and Arabs of the east cost arrived Africans were fighting each other and taking slaves from each other. In this regard their history was no different than the rest of the world. Neither the Europeans or the Arabs traded exclusively in African slaves. The Arabs were particularly fond of light skinned slaves. The native American nations (tribes) were highly advanced for the time and fought each other and took slaves from each other well before the European settlers arrived. The plight of Africans as slaves in American and the African slave trade is in no way unique to history.
Dude Sowell would absolutely wipe the floor with this clown.

Watch Makeda Voletta videos.I learned from her the state of Texas dictates what goes in history books.
I think the schools focus on ww2 because it's European history and recent too and has more relevance to the modern world.
This has been the standard in American schools for pretty much the entire history of education. In the Caribbean students are taught Caribbean history first, with the Europeans clearly illustrated as invaders and the Africans clearly drawn as captive and eventually freed immigrants. The teaching of American history should start with the Native tribes and move out from there for a full context, with the wider world history - not just European - brought in.

Then I turned to Africa, unsure if I would find much. I was blown away by the scope of ancient African empires like Benin and Kush. Why do we never learn about those in world history?
Bret Terry, Europeans were involved in elitism and colonialism, and many still are. If they taught those that they were enslaving about the richness of their African cultures, then those enslaved would have resisted more so than they did. Why would the slavemaster teach the slave that the slave's ancestors were intelligent and had an advanced culture?
This is also why even white supremacists in the U.S. don't want history books teaching the real history of their "Founding Fathers" and other facts which show how racist and unjust this system really is.

Quite literally the first forms of slavery existed between Africa and the Middle East. The Sahara slave trade said to have traded 16- 28 million Africans, for which they were immediately castrated…
Mansa Musa used slaves to mine gold and salt and he gained his entire wealth due to slavery.
He took 12,000 slaves with him to Mecca as well as bags of gold and 60,000 men as a means to promote his strength and wealth.
It led people to Africa, for which they themselves wrote about and saw slaves as a critical part of African culture, which people documented earlier than Mansa Musa’s time.
Dahomey literally fell to the French in part, because they refused to end slavery. They fought to hold onto it as long as possible.
The British were the first country to actually wage war against slavery of black Africans being transported across the Atlantic…for which many sailors lost their lives.

Sorry I love history I mainly study Roman history because it's my favorite but thats also why I know.about Egypt, their history crosses paths more than you would think. Don't get me wrong I love African history too just the correct 1. I'd say my favorite story is the one of the slave who ended up being a samurai, I mean how bad ass is that 🥰😍
@@Mystic0_0 The ancient Egyptians were blacks.. They are not a race of their own..The were many blacks I Greek history including Cleopatra.. Greek was a mixture of white and blacks. The same with Rome. You don't love black history cos if you do you won't deny the presence of blacks even in Greeks achievement talkless of Egypt that was predominantly blacks and true Africans before they were invaded. I repeat Cleopatra was black and not only her ,there were more blacks in Greek history and achievement. It is all hidden in your books but I have read them...
@@hsfilms695 I feel like I really need to clarify with you that I'm not against black history. As you know I'm sure, the first person to really bring Rome to their knees was a black General the great Hannibal. So what I'm saying is if you want to celebrate black history as you and every1 should, I just wish it was accurate info is all im saying
Africa is a continent, many countries, languages, cultures, including Egypt. There is a huge diversity within African people. We learn little about "Africa." We do not learn about the amazing histories of the individual countries within Africa. We need to learn about the cultures and histories of the world to heal the ignorance and bias that divides us. And yes, this was the most horrible lie, you are right. 💔
Exactly!!!
It was a stupid statement to unleash on a group of people. It has impacted both African people living in north America and Europe but I have found that it impacts those individuals who were raised on the continent but choose to migrate here to the USA as adults.
I work in healthcare and 15 years ago, I had heart to heart conversations with the women I worked with about straightening their hair. I remember saying to them; 'you attend church regularly and claim you embrace God.' They would shake their head's and agree with the statement then I would counter with; 'then why are you straightening your hair?' They would give me every excuse for why they did it, but my response to them was that they defiled the idea that they were made in the image of God if they embraced the straightening of their hair for any other reason but fashion. Anyway over the past 15 year's, they have gone from stick straight presses and relaxers to cornrows, box braids and everything else in between... and it is a beautiful sight to see.
@@jodrew1845 How is straightening a woman's hair an affront to God or a anti-Christian thing to do? I do not understand your argument. Some white women straighten their hair. What about wearing make up or coloring one's hair? Are these things an affront to Christianity?
@@vickimcburney8977 no. It's an affront to their agenda. For real, this is getting ridiculous
@@jodrew1845 An affront to God to change your hair? Really? So white women who straighten, perm, dye? Every woman who covers her grays is offending God? I don't think so. What a load of guilt to dump on women!
Man this is deep! There are so many inconsistent ideas about “Africa “that have followed me my whole life. They followed my mum while she was Growing up in Uganda. They followed my grandmother, my great grandmother and others in my family of Ugandan heritage. That due to the tone of skin colour (because there’s only one skin colour in Africa apparently) we have been singled out as needing saving from ourselves Is a great injustice. So many of the horrors that have been perpetuated on the diaspora of Africa can indeed stem from the barbarism of religion.
Fantastic video thank you
❤🙏🏽🔥✨
Yep hate religion. Ain’t done nothing good, especially compared to the negatives. We shouldn’t need it to treat each other and life kindly and with respect.
The idea of the "Curse of Ham" is just as pernicious as the equivalently Christian idea the Men are superior to Women, because God made Adam first, and then used one of Adam's bones to make an "assistant" for him. And the teaching that God doesn't want women to speak in church, or preach. And that "women just tempt men into sin".
Maybe that should be your next challenge: become a researcher of ancient African writing forms, to help decipher old writings
Yes, he could start with Nsibidi

Greetings to you! My great grandmother was sold to a chief in the Kpelle tribe l, she was also pregnant with my grandmother who also grew up a slave. I asked my mother " Why?" She said they treated widows bad in those days and some people were sold for a bag of salt. So my ancestors were a part of African slavery. The Europeans were selling each other too...they forget to mention that.
The Ham theology had me baffled for years...then my eyes were opened...We were lied to...but also we neglected to really look at the genealogy because it tideous to read.
Yep👍
i dont know why people dont get this.
The African 'sellers' may not have known the end destination but ,yes, they did participate.
The Arabs were the Middle men and the Europeans the first customer.
We don’t forget to mention it. My ancestors were Irish and slaves but no one cares.
@@blue_moon6490 my stepmom is Irish and Scottish and my biological Dad is 3rd generation German descent. I am well versed on European slavery. The thing about being biracial I see both sides of the equation and slavery of African by Europeans was brutal. Africans were allowed to be put in a category of less than humans by scientists and approved by the papacy. Today people of African descent are still mistreated all over the world and have to fight to just be treated equal by people of European descent worldwide.
I genuinely admire the teachings you video; did I miss you debunking the story about African people offering African people for the Slave trade?
If I asked you what this video taught… could you actually give any specific answer?
So happy to see your channel grow so well...continue to spread the knowledge 👏🏾
Great ...very enlightening. It hurts me when I hear my black brothers speak about themselves as if they are inferior. Getting them to recognize the truth has been a difficult task. Hopefully videos like these are shared so that our people can learn the truth about ourselves
Matathias, brothers and sisters have been programmed to call each other "N*gga" and "b*tch" and "hoe." And if you try speaking to them, as I have periodically, they may listen or they may make an excuse or get angry. But when they walk away, they're surrounded by friends, family, and a culture of ignorance that inundates them in such terms, so they most-likely revert back to using these terms again. The best way to get delivered from such nonsense is to have a divine revelation and born again experience. Without God, we're lost on so many levels. (John 3:3,5, 2nd Corinthians 5:17.)
Another one:
The English and Dutch in the south are South Africans.
Abd mahy had babysxwith blacks, than alot of those babys played white and married whites and some married blacks similarvto what happened in germany.
Just to get you a bit thinking: So somebody who imigrates to a foreign country, learns the language, adapts to its customs, gets the citizenship, raises his/hers kids in that country, pays taxes doesn't belong to that country?
How about black americans? Are they Americans or Africans?
In addition, didnt human kind originate from Africa? Therefore, everybody is to some degree "African".
About these South Africans: They were born in Africa, their parents were born in Africa, they got the citzenship of South Africa. At some point you have to acknowledge that people migrate and have always been. And just because of their race doesnt fit the majority, you want to exclude them?
What about the emmigrated "Africans" & "Asians" in Europe? Are they supposed to never feel at home? According to your logic, the answer is yes...

Thank you so much to highlight Black African history. It’s actually so underrated and a lot of questions about antique Africa still remains in my head.
Also, I asked my history teacher if Black Africans actually had antique past and history and he told me they were just tribes and savage people.
I was kinda hurt but still made my researches and landed here ! I’m so happy now
If it makes you feel better, every "race" was tribes and savage people at different points in time. Both Romans and gaulic people are "white" yet Gauls we're considered barbaric by the Romans when they pillaged, rapaed, and enslaved them. You're teacher seems dumb, which speaks volumes to the standards on becoming a teacher lol.
looooool check that off the list of "Things that didn't happen"

OK, just one example is the "Kingdom" of Dahomey. It's entire culture was based on slavery and they practiced human sacrifice.
So did the Aztecs. What's your point?
@@FlagWaverFlagBearer The point is that negative practices and primitive customs did exist in Africa, like the Kingdom of Dahomey. So the idea that Africans were primitive is not based on inventions but on practices that existed in Africa.
@@elo6550 Of course they did. No one will argue with you on that. But you will get lots of arguments when you pretend that Africa was one homogenous place. Some cultures were 'primitice', others were not. By pointing out the Dahomey, he is trying to imply all African cultures were a certain way, which is just a lie
Awaken my spirit with this one. I believe that this "curse of Ham" is the greatest lie ever told
Well. As much as we don't like it...biblical ancestral lines and curses are what they are.....everything centers around Israel wether we like it or accept it or not
Well that’s from the Bible so it’s not a lie... he looked upon his father’s nakedness so he was cursed... if you are African American and your ancestors were slaves then your rom Shem so no need to worry about Ham
@XxJxydenxX XxAlønexX yes. Everything

I'm surprised, that it's taking us so long to realize this, and we're still passive, how much longer will it take us to catch up.
Surprised, look at literacy rates in Africa.

You yourself told a lie when you tried to say that blacks did not sell other blacks into slavery. It’s pretty well-document that they did. It’s also now pretty well-documented that it also happened in East Africa with Arab-African slave trade that outlasted the Trans-Atlantic slave trade by almost half a century.

Hey Celine
How are you keeping,
Where are you from??
Interesting assessment. I agree those of African descent should not be viewed as being cursed or their culture as less advanced as those of European descent. Instead we could take a closer look at the amazing feats accomplished by humanity in general. We are all connected and I hope one day the world will see humanity as a whole, all colors and creeds working together for the future. The things we are capable of accomplishing together far exceeds the potential of those that wish to disconnect themselves from the single tree of life that is humanity.
You are wrong and blowing smoke. "We were all created equal but are not the same." I do not want to be like you, whatever you are.
But their culture was less advanced... severely so.

Hey home boy keep informative information coming. I love your content and the way you present it.
L
Anyone that think he said " africans didnt sell other africans" did not actually watch the video. He stated that the concept of a black race in todays modern terms was not carried back then. So when you say that "black people sold black people", you are decontextualizing the fact that they were separate peoples. You throw away away their distinctions. This is never done for whites. For example people speak of how the irish were treated, how the italians were treated etc. But when it comes to the argument or oversimplification of africans capturing other african tribes people use the terms 'blacks" lumping them all up by race. If you dont get it maybe youre ignorant or maybe your racist.
Yet that same nuance is not applied to white people or Europeans. Yes… obviously there are sub groups in Africa… and other continents… OBVIOUSLY
I am a Nigerian and ever since I discovered your Channel, I have been glued to it. I so much love the way you teach about my history and origin, it's way beyond what I was taught in my whole Academic days. Thanks

@@StreamNexus history should have no bias, but too many people would've clicked on this video hoping to confirm whatever bias view they have in their mind.
The main problem is calling ti "african culture", since it's a huge continent three times the size Europe.
Nobody for instance talks about the vikings as "european culture", they call it scandinavian or Norse culture. Sure if it's even mentioned in context of "european culture", it is always mentions as part of a whole. Which is never done (well atleast in "the average person" circle) when it comes to Africa.
Nobody would talk about the marvels of engineering, architechure and art in Constantinople during the 900s AD and conclude that this made people in modern day Sweden part of an "advanced" culture. In Sweden you still had nomadic tribes (the Sami) and the people we call "vikings" where mostly farmers, living in small villages growing roots and raising cattle. Did the swedes know of Constantinople in the 900s? Well, yes they did, but that's besides the point. I'm sure the Zulu knew about other nations and peoples far away from them aswell, but they had no affect on their daily life, just as Constantinople had no affect on the daily life of the average swede.
Like, Egypt is closer to Sweden than it is to South Africa.
We can't talk about "african history" unless we start actually braking down the continent into spheres of locations, people and cultures.
no1 cares.... if you talk to regular people who consume netflix and tv... they dont giva a f*ck about thor having a sixpack insted of a dadbud was acurate acording to nordic mythology..... it just need to look cool and feel good at the box office..... no1 cares if it will fit the future political picture.... it needs to feel good right now

@DimFM that has nothing to do with what we are talking about here mate
I happened to come across this video, while browsing on RUclips. I must say "CONTINUE" producing these kinds of video. We are always been undermined nor overlooked by other (collaborators). Claiming that we can't think for ourselves or do anything to improve our situation, to extend being called uneducated. To a point where we don't even study about our history, with such video or insight would be helpful to our upcoming generation. To know where we come from and where/what we were trying to aim for. Look knowledge is an eye opener.
I know there would be some, thinking that I am using strong language. That's not what I am trying to achieve here, but to say "It's about time someone like you, tell a tale of who we are and where we come from" maybe years from now we could see more and more African history being taught in schools.
