"I cant believe that" was said twice. When Candace said white majority countries ended slavery first, and when Candace said that current African slave markets arent generally selling to white men. And why cant she believe those two things? Because those two facts would crush her black victimhood narrative.
Yes, all the raping, and murder, blocking people from school, destroying towns and businesses, blocking people from loans, blocking people from land ownership, forcing people into small neighborhoods and putting highways in the middle, jim crow, and denial of basic human rights, and the neceessity for a civil rights movment. It was all a 'narrative'. Fucking idiocy.
Correct. Victimhood is an addiction now and education would crush her narrative of being a vcitim as truly no one is opressed today in the west or do they deserve reperations. What is happening now is people who arent slaves are demanding they receive money from people who arent slavers. its pathetic, political and frankly disguting behaviour.
Candace hand picks information and arranges in a nice little "hey white people, look-I'm defending you! Let me become rich and famous, too, ok?" And "black" people, sadly so often gullible because they want so badly to have something good to believe in, take her word for reality WITHOUT LOOKING INTO THEMSELVES. We all know slavery has been everywhere, old news, REAL old news, ya know? BUT THE USA, CALLING ITSELF THE "LAND OF FREEDOM", PROCLAIMING "INALIENABLE RIGHTS OF MAN", proceeded to NOT ONLY ENSLAVE MILLIONS OF PEOPLE OF COLOR, THEY TOOK IT ONE STEP FURTHER AND "SCIENTIFICALLY' CREATED A WHOLE NARRATIVE THAT PEOPLE OF COLOR WERE "INFERIOR", THAT THEY WERE "LESS THAN HUMAN", THAT THEY "DON'T HAVE FEELINGS LIKE WHITE PEOPLE", IN THIS COUNTRY OF FREEDOM AND INALIENABLE RIGHTS. Stop listening to this woman's history scam. She is playing to the "white" crowd to further her career and success, she is the "black" voice they need to absolve them of past and present oppression and racism! She gets GREATLY rewarded for this, and "white" America is DESPERATE for a "get out of jail free card". Its taken a LONG time but the history of "white" American cruelty oppression has been getting revealed BIG TIME and they can't put it back in the box. So they need these shills like Candace to have their guilt wiped clean. What she's doing is betraying people of color and its shameful. Its not about "victim mentality", its about the TRUTH of this hypocritical country and its hypocritical government, its hypocritical institutions, its hypocritical society. DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH AND STOP BELIEVING WHATEVER RUclips POPS UP. Candace, of course, found herself a "white" billionaire husband-no surprise there! And she still begs for donations on her videos, LOL! Also, these dear ladies aren't even AMERICAN, for crying out loud. They don't know the nasty history and oppressive politics of this "free" country. DO. YOUR. OWN. RESEARCH.
This is what a lack of education looks like. Being ignorant is not the problem, but staying ignorant is. I doubt they bother to learn more but I hope I'm wrong.
White people ended slavery doesn't mean nothing. Y'all education level is bad. White people are being punished for enslaving GOD people. What we think don't even matter
You should ask yourselves why you want to fact check and question these facts on slavery and yet you didn’t question or fact check what you were told before, One should question everything.
@@unclerobert7532 Don't swallow! Your unwillingness to be educated tells me exactly the pointlessness of any kind of conversation. You should have stayed awake in history class, bud. Oh! they never taught you this, hey! Too bad.
@@Nashalbeth@Nashalbeth It wasn't Republicans who embraced and supported slavery, brother. They went to war to end it. The Dems were the slave owners' party, and Lincoln was a Republican. Are Americans better off now than they were in 2021? That's the question all dem politicians are answering, and so will you. You're welcome p.s I am not a Trump supporter
By all means ladies, google this for yourselves if you don't believe it; after 1833 the Royal Navy created a squadron of ships (only three to begin with, but more thereafter) to hunt down and suppress slave trading ships coming from the west African coasts; this squadron seems to have suffered casualties over the following decades as part of its patrols, but was apparently nonetheless effective in breaking up the slave trade shipping routes as far as it possibly could (at a time when slavery remained legal in America and many other European countries).
@ElCarnivoroBBQ Haiti gained independence from France in 1804. They invaded the Dominican Republic in 1805 and took thousands of slaves. How is that banning the practice of slavery? Lol. Imagine if the Union army did that in 1865. Where do you guys learn this shit?
I hope you let the facts change your hearts, because EVERYTHING Candace said is entirely true and you can easily verify this with a simple google search. Wishing you the best and God bless!
None of that true kiddo slavery still exist it's just modern. And GOD will pumsihed white people for a thousand years it will happen. Candace just looking for a check
How can you not know this? Someone must have slept through the history lessons. Did you think that keeping slaves was a white thing? As far as I remember there were almost 4000 black slave owners in the usa.
You can look up the stats on the troops that died in the Civil War (to abolish slavery in the U.S.). About 10,000 blacks died in the fighting. 360,000 whites died in the Union Army during the war. Over 200,000 more whites go severely injured who didn't die specifically during the war, but many of them became lifetime cripples. The Union Army was almost entirely made up of whites. Nearly 2,500,000 whites vs under 180,000 blacks. Statistically speaking, there were about 3.4 million white men in free states between the ages of 19-44. About 2.5 million of them fought in the Union Army to end slavery. So about 73% of white men who would have been able to fight legally, did so. Of the 27% who didn't, you have to assume some of them were physically unable to (it was the 1800s after all, medicine and hospitals were still bad back then), and others had to continue to work to provide services and take care of families and children. 100% of them could not have gone off to fight without the Union states collapsing. 73% of able-bodied white men going to fight to end slavery is a really huge number. But black race hustlers act like this number is zero for some reason. As far as the blacks who fought, 75% of free black men at the time fought in the Union Army. So, 73% vs 75%, not a big difference. Roughly an identical percent of blacks and whites fought. But a much higher % of whites died than the blacks who fought. They died or became critically wounded at about a 250% rate (as a percentage vs their total number of troops of each race, not vs the total) vs blacks who fought since they were the frontliners most of the time, as white men made up over 93% of the Union Army. In total, they died at about ten times the rate of black soldiers. This is mostly due to the fact way more whites fought to end slavery than blacks. More than 10x as many whites vs blacks. These numbers are likely in public school history books here, but they simply do not make a point of focusing on it. Maybe they should. What Candice doesn't mention in her video is that in fact slavery was abolished in the U.S. in multiple states prior to the Civil War, and well before the United Kingdom abolished it. Within the very first presidency (George Washington's first term), almost half of the states had already passed laws to abolish slavery. Six of which had abolished it before he even took office (keeping in mind there were way less states back then, so that's 6 states out of 13 had already abolished it before the first president's term!). Two more abolished it during his first term, so it was only a handful of hangers-on states that didn't abolish it. The United States was in fact the first country (states) to officially pass legislature to end slavery. Additionally, by time the U.S. Civil War began (and again, as Candice said, mostly whites fought against the concept of slavery along with only a small number of blacks by comparison), only 1.4% of the U.S. population even owned slaves. So, to blame all whites for slavery even in the United States. . .is stupid. Barely over 1% of people even owned one. Where did I get that info, you may ask? U.S. Census stats just prior to that war. That is as accurate and factual as you are ever going to get. Any other source will be dubious by comparison. The fact the United States is vilified for slavery is pretty much the dumbest possible stance someone could have on the subject since they're actually one of the primary countries responsible for slavery being mostly ended as a practice worldwide. She is also correct in that countries today that still practice slavery are all non-white. Mostly in Africa. Slavery was always the most prevalent in those countries to begin with. The main reason it wasn't abolished in its entirety in the U.S. prior to the Civil War is the way we founded the country here. It was specifically meant to be governed on the state level and not have "executive orders" passed down dictatorially. The country was founded specifically to NOT be controlled by a centralized power (such as a King). So, each state's elected officials were responsible for passing laws to abolish it. Fact is, not all did it. Much political discourse happened to change that ever since the country won the Revolutionary War after its founding in 1776. keeping in mind, the United States was not a country in 1619-1775, but was a colony of the British Empire. Effectively it was Great Britain, not The United States until 1776. So, to blame the United States for 1619-1775 is ludicrous as it didn't even exist yet. Abolishing it as a whole here required a lot of time, political process, and revising how the country worked as a whole. You can't naysay them for not creating the ideal government immediately the moment they had a chance. They were building from nothing. You can't go from nothing to suddenly perfection instantly on the first try. Especially when you had millions of people who had differing opinions on what a perfect country actually would be! So, everything she said was true. She left out a lot of info (which only would have made whites look better), but I listed some of the stuff she left out as best I could here if you two were still curious about this subject. You can verify everything I've said online with relative ease. If you can't, reply to me and I will link you sources of the stuff you can't find. You will not find any race hustlers offering you the same since they're full of crap. Hopefully some day slavery also ends in Africa as well, so no one has to suffer under it anymore. It is and always was an abhorrent practice.
nice response! could you send me some of those links you mentioned? I just want to learn as many details as I possibly can, I'm already well versed in a lot of this but it never hurts to learn more! One of the thing if you've never checked out Dr Thomas Sowell, I definitely recommend him! You want to talk about comprehensive... WOW!
@@three2_2005 Which specific stats did you want the sources for? :) I'll link them to you in DMs since RUclips doesn't like hyperlinks in the comments. I have heard of him and seen some of his work.

He looks up the facts most people overlook that can really paint a much more accurate picture of things. If you actually mentioned him because my post reminded you of him, then I'm flattered. :3
@@snakeplissken7671 it did remind me of him lol Shelby Steele and Walter Williams are also two that I can recommend as well. but seriously anything you're willing to send me I am more than happy to give it a look. I like to gain as many perspectives, or as wide of a perspective as I possibly can on subjects like these. appreciate it.
Well said sir, I believe that, about George Washington, and some others . Cuz I heard something/ research that " George Washington was the type of guy who worked out with his slaves even though they were his slaves", also wanted his slaves to learn to read and write, and wanted his slaves to join the army to fight for their independence, sides Washington kept losing men between battles against the Britain which they also called as "red coats". But the politicians that time wouldn't allow him to let his slaves join the war to fight for their independence but they don't talk about that, they just talk about what they want people to hear not what they need to hear about history, which is part of the reason why they are trying to erase our history". And also too the black people who are offended by their own ancestors being slaves to white people sure I can imagine how abuse it was, but to blame white people for enslaving their black ancestors is also the stupidest thing, instead they should blame Africa for selling their own people as slaves around the world in the first place, but I doubt they even know that part of their history.
@@randymaylowski2485 They don't. The people who rail and rant and screech about this the most think that Africa was some kind of Utopia and only focus on "1619", and ignore everything prior to that except to incorrectly assume everything was perfect and great if only white people didn't show up. Entirely incorrect. But if they were actually well-versed in their own history, they wouldn't be race hustling now. It's just their chosen profession or hobby because it at least seems apparently easier to obtain money and attention by doing that than by actually earning it by doing something productive.
Ethiopia (Africa) had between 2 and 4 million slaves in the early 20th Century out of a total population of 11 million. Ethiopia abolished slavery on August 26, 1942.
To the two young ladies in the video, you should proceed with educating yourselves and doing your own research. You should see what Candace as done in her presentation, not the end of a journey of learning, but only the beginning. Every race, culture, nationality has endured slavery. What Candace Owen stated was it was predominately White Nations, like the UK and the USA that implemented laws to try to eradicate slavery, now its up to you, to see when those laws where implemented and see if other nations, especially in Africa, brought about laws to support the ending of slavery, either around the same time, or even before.
Not only just that, theses gorgeous women in this video should do research on their own country's history. Than they will realize that their own ancestors sold their own people as slaves around the world. Which was stupid in the first place, treated them like vehicles of selling them for income. But hopefully these ladies will realize that not all white people owned blacks for slaves and not all white people treated their slaves in a cruelty way.
Come on ladies. You know that Africa is full of a multitude of tribes. "Their own people" is not their own people. They are people of different tribes. In the same way that a white Viking would enslave a white Brit. it is silly saying :A black enslaving another black person"???
APTTMH! Did he buck break them, hang them on trees, separate the families, systematically destroy them, destroy their heritage and identity? Even if other nations were slaves, how is it those people still knew who they were still? Anyone who believes this garbage are a part of the bloodsuckers. Did she speak some facts, absolutely cause even lies start from truth but her downplaying what devils did is proof people still sell their souls
1807 Britain abolished the Atlantic slave trade. They abolished slavery in the British Empire in 1833 but had abolished the trade 25 years earlier. Black Africans were some of the worst slavers as were Arabs who engaged in the barbary slave trade. There are still slaves in many countries.
It wasn't completely official until 1838, after the Black president of MEXICO Vincento Ramon Guerrero ended it completely in 1837. Don't forget the British Supported the Confederacy. They needed the Slave produced Cotton so whole families in England could work their textile floors. To quote Candace, " History is Complicated". You want to forget the Brits along with the Dutch and Arabs and West Africans and Americans had their hands dirty. To be fair it cost America the MOST to end slavery.
She’s literally stated fact, not her beliefs. What you think or your opinion is irrelevant, truth is truth, fact is fact, history is history. Knowledge is key 👍🏻
Here is something you can be proud of: during the Civil War the North originally had only White soldiers but they were losing the war! The Black begged to be allowed to fight for their freedom and when Blacks were allowed to join the Union army and fight, they turned the tide and DID help win their freedom! Go to your library and read about your history. Start with Frederick Douglas!
@@Peter-oe2fe what I have written is the truth! Blacks begged and begged to be allowed to fight for their freedom but the Union Army would not enlist them. Meanwhile they were losing fighting men right and left; partly from heavy casualties and partly from men refusing to fight for various reasons. Finally, in an act of desperation they enlisted the Black man because they needed soldiers. These men were fighting for their lives of freedom and that of their families and they were fully invested in the fight. That is what turned the tide. You can talk about this battle and that battle but the real turn came when men were allowed to fight for their freedom.
@@ourgracefulearth I don’t know, somehow I missed that movie. But if you have not read it Brian Kilmeade wrote a book that touches on that. I think it’s called “The President and the Freedom Fighter”. It is a non fiction about Lincoln and Frederick Douglas. Great book, I think you’d like it.
well it's true ,slavery was everywhere , it was a old backward mindset, in Africa and arab to this date slavery is practiced in patches , every race sold their weaker people in slave trade , they did intra tribe or kingdom slave trade
No it's not. GOD knows what Candace doing. She trying to speak good on her oppressors like most blacks. But GOD will still punish white people it's in the bible this just her worldly take.
learn history of the Balkans everyting is a true,our 500 years ottoman slavery finish 1878,but Balkans never cry,open your eyes and stop live in the past lovely gurls :)
We learned this in school in Canada. There is an excellent mini series called the Book of Negros based on a book written by an amazing African woman telling her story of slavery and the British abolitionists. Peace and respect from Saskatchewan 🇨🇦🖖🏻
British official ended slavery in 1837, but continued to support the Confederacy because they needed SLAVE produced Cotton so whole families could work the factory floors of their Textiles. Remember " History is Complicated".
The Brits totally ended it in 1838, the Black president of MEXICO Vincento Ramon Guerrero ended it one year earlier. Get the Brit and American Abolition, but remember the British Supported the Confederacy who produced Cotton for them through slavery. Then had entire families on the factory floors in their textiles. As Candace says " History is Complicated". To be fair it cost the US the Most to end Slavery.
School Is a place where the political people on power want you to believe. History is written and documented. School has became a place to teach what modern government leaders and their supporters want to go believe.
All black people do not have a high opinion of other black people, and that is how slavery was going on in Africa. I support Candice Owen's all the way💯. These two young ladies just don't understand that all African groups will not value life for the rest of African groups.
They got to realize it isn't about the color of the skin it's about the people treating everybody the same no matter the color of the skin. That's the unity we need
There is only one race, the human race. Man's inhumanity to man (in the non gender specific sense of the word) knows no bounds. People were enslaved because they could be. A stronger group needs a workforce, they enslave a weaker group. Race had nothing to do with it. It was all about labor. As far as putting an end to slavery, what Candice quoted was the countries that did it in an official capacity. There were other countries that also progressed towards the ending of slavery. However for clarity, you should realize that all ethnic groups have been enslaved at one time or another. And while there is open slavery still occurring in some countries, an underground of slavery exists in just about every country. Human trafficking (women forced into prostitution against their will as a prime example) is very widespread. Unfortunately we are flawed as a species. But we continue to try and rise above it. The ongoing campaign of blaming white people for all the ills of the world by groups like BLM serves to only divide. And when one takes a hard look at them, you find out that it's all about money. But don't take my word for anything. Research for yourself and become educated on the facts. Good luck.
I knew this decades ago after learning it in school in England in the 1950s and 1960s. But I have met young people who actually believe that slavery began with the Atlantic slave trade, and no amount of discussion could shift their belief. The lies told to us as children are the ones that are the hardest to correct, and it’s hard to hear that you have been believing a lie. My people were enslaved by the Romans, the Vikings, the Normans and the Arabs. At some point we need to move on otherwise the grudges will continue FOR EVER. My family are from the East Coast of England, from where many of the sailors for the West Africa Squadron were recruited (it's well worth your time checking some YT vids on that). My grandparents remembered grandfathers and uncles who served on the ships of the West Africa Squadron. Not all returned.
It's very hard to admit when you have been lied to, and to seek the truth, and I applaud you for watching this. Candace is 100% accurate, and I hope you two seek out more information. White people are NOT your enemy!
To clarify, she never said whites were the only ones fighting. She said white countries were the first to put anti-slavery laws into effect and to make an effort to end slavery internationally, which is 100% true. Took at countries that made laws for it, and what years they came into place. You know some countries in the middle east didn't formerly end slavery until the 1960s? Your parents or grandparents, who are alive STILL, were around when that happened. And they did not end it willingly; it was international pressure from mostly white countries. That being said, some white people (like some of the southerners who lost the Civil War in America) fled to South America, with slaves, and continued slavery there. Later, they had families with the slaves and other local populations and slavery just slowly ended. That is one reason Brazilians used to look so beautiful and exotic; they were the first area to intermingle races. I would say more so than early America, even. There are even a few celebrations that woke activists in South America are trying to end, because they include the "Rebel Flag," or the red flag with the big X on it that the South used to fly. But the flag isn't the same there. Their ancestors eventually all found a way to forget the past, interconnect, end slavery and become united without a government forcing the issue. As far as I could tell, all the ones celebrating were of mixed heritage. But people were trying to tell them that they were "racist" for using that flag to celebrate, even though it was their ancestors who were both the slavers and enslaved, and they, knowing that, chose to celebrate their heritage. There's a lot of ignorant nonsense out there, I recommend learning the history of something before hating or trying to destroy something for its history. Same with loving something for its history. Look at the Democratic Party in America for an example of that.
@@tatamay126 I agree, I haven't been able to find anything in here that is factually untrue. Slavery is a broad topic, and there's much that was left out. But, in her defense, the video title is "A Brief History of Slavery" so it doesn't claim to be comprehensive.
She was speaking the truth it's actual history on the basics of slavery. With historical records to prove it what you learned in school was. History that was altered to to fit a narrative that is not real history. Because it was completely changed from what really happened. What she is saying is the 100% unaltered truth if you like it or not it's the truth.
okay they weren't selling themselves they were selling their enemies. okay like the native americans there were many different tribes there were over 500 different tribes yes they looked the same but had different beliefs thats what made them different. in africa there was 3000 different tribes over 2000 different languages
For something to be so apart of somones culture and their daily struggles. One would think you would have done immense amount of research on the subject. But instead, learn it from a youtube video and deny the facts youre being told in a time that we have supercomputers in our pockets. Wild.
My comment seems to be a very prevalent issue for many people that are just learning about history in this way, so please take it as only informative not a "look down my nose" criticism. for anyone getting into this and other deeper historical topics please try to remember that it's easy for us to look back and judge with extreme punitive scrutiny, however we must let go of all or as much as possible emotion and try to see through a more practical lens rather than a modern one. for example, many people, including myself, think that trading humans for trivial things such as mirrors, etc is even more abhorrent; but just remember at the time the world was not as connected as we are now so that means that there were many different civilizations at different points in the timeline of technological growth and industrialization so when presented with items that they may have never seen before, or did not produce themselves, etc it was seen as a valid trade. This is not to justify, only to remind that we must get as wide of a perspective as possible and examine these events with a purely academic outlook. I can only imagine a hundred years from now or any point in the long-term future what those peoples may look back and say about our ethics, standards, practices, moral fortitude, etc.
She said "Lori iro" ie lies on lies!. Girls! I'm a Yoruba girl too. Go to Badagry you can still see where the slaves were held by fellow blacks to be sold to anyone. Today theres still slavery in Libya, Saudi Arabia, Iran, China, Iraq, Kuwait, Pakistan, India and our very own Nigeria.
Everything Candace is saying is documented truth. My father was Slavic his people had been enslaved for 600 years before the first Africans were brought to the States. In fact the Irish were the first slaves in North America.
Why she is so focused on the “history” of slavery vs the abhorrent nature of it. Murder has take place throughout history, but it does it make it less bad?? Who cares about trying to prove that it existed throughout history, that is a fruitless counter. Absolutely meaningless! I guess black people are supposed to say, “well since it has already existed, I guess it was ok.” It puts her ignorance or full display…
Of course it was not okay. But calling white people evil because some of them had slaves while every other race has had them too is pretty hypocritical, don't you think?
Just wondering since your in disbelief, what did you read, watch as young, you must have come across greek or roman texts, movies, seen some documentaries about egypt (I mean as africans you would be interested in this awesome african civilization no?) Besides slavery is not a thing of race, why would you even think that... if you lost a war you most likely became a slave or were killed off, that's how it worked back then and sadly as mentioned mainly in africa is still today
Regarding the selling of black slaves by black people, it is important to consider that one of the main misconceptions is that "black Africans" were a thing... Sub-Saharan Africa was a melting pot of hundreds, if not thousands, of different tribes, often at war with each other. They didn't have a common " black" identity. They identified as a member of their particular tribe and the rest where the others. To be conquered, or feared, or avoided... Or enslaved.
Yes. These are facts. These are historic events. People of every color can be horrible. Knowing how humanity is, it shouldn't be too difficult to believe.
It's absolutely true that Britain abolished slavery and paid a outrageously high sum of money to pay for the freedom of slaves in the British empire.... the empire was so big and a large part depended on slave labour, the British government knew they would have a very big problem getting the slave owners to just let them go, so a compensation policy was introduced to pay for the cost of the purchase of the slaves and the loss of income to businesses..... the amount of money is estimated to have been around 40% of the total wealth of the biggest empire the world has ever seen.... remember Britain governed a quarter of the world landmass and a quarter of the world population, so she was very wealthy...... BTW the hard currency and international loans and sales of lands to raise the amount was finally paid off with the last payment in 2015 .... Let's not forget the 50 years the royal navy " West Africa squadron" patrolled and ran down slave traders buying and selling slaves from Africa and the destruction of coastal fortress prisons that held kidnapped people to be sold. Which cost the lives of 20,000 royal navy sailor and marines over the 50 years....... and, the fact that the British army had to invade and conquer some African countries to stop them trading in slaves..... Of course this is not good for the people who hate the British and the old empire, because they can't play the victim......
Bruh all what is she saying are facts. They are facts because they are documented by books and sources that are know to be reliable. Just educate yourselves instead of being so annoying... Plus it's a black women (well culitvated, not like yall) saying that, yall dont even have confidence in your own sisters ? Smh...
It hurts to see and hear your hate towards white people, in such a manner that you do not believe the truth about slavery.! I am white (my wife is black)... My ancestors are the Vikings. The vikings took other vikings as slaves.! NOt people of colour, but other white scandinavians.!
You guys sound like your Nigerian and u know this is true my ex is from the igbo tribe and he told me this as well go and ask the people from edo state
Native Filipinos also enslaved native Filipinos in the past. Opposing barangays (towns) would battle it out and the losing town would become slaves to the winners. Slavery happened almost everywhere in the world. I don't study in the USA, but rather I study in Asia where we learn various world history. Let me tell you all the things that Candace Owens said were factually true. We learned about them in high school, when we learned about European History as well as Asian History, particularly Philippine History and some Chinese History. We tackled African History too, but not as much.
It is VERY well-known in history that Britain was the first EVER in the history of Earth to end slavery, I thought that most of this was common knowledge but apparently not. If you doubt her words, go pick up a history book in your local library and read it. You'll find that ancient Earth is gross, and messy and horrible and it'll be hard to accept, you may even vomit a couple of times when you read how all slaves were treated in the ancient world. Prepare yourself for that one...
That not TRUE. Vincento Ramon Guerrero the black president of MEXICO decreed it in 1829 fully realized in 1837. The British decreed it in 1837 and was fully realized in 1838. So Mexico wins, ha ha. Don't forget the British Supported the Confederacy, for their slave produced Cotton! So they could indenture entire families on their Textile Factory floors. To quote Candace " History IS complicated".
This is one of the most frustrating videos I’ve ever seen. “I don’t think that’s true” on every factual statement made. It takes nothing to check it yourself, but you choose not to. And play victim.
WOW!! The title of your reaction video is; "WE'RE SO MAD & PISSED." Did you know that Prager U videos (possibly this one included) have been approved as teaching material in Florida's public schools? Well, according to their new law, video's such as this one could, or should be banned! If you all are "pissed", I'm sure the black students watching it will be "pissed" also! Florida public school curriculum bans workplaces and schools from teaching that anyone must feel "guilt, transgression, outrage or discomfort" based on their race as a result of actions by others in the past.
@@fla652 For decades Black Americans have felt "guilt, transgression, outrage or discomfort" based on their race, while also suffering from discrimination. A new wave of White Conservative Christian Nationalist male politicians are dialing back all the racial progress that was gained over those decades. They are going to try to take "their" country back...BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY.
Vincento Ramon Guerrero, thanks, l wrote back several paragraph details on the correct order. Mexico, Britain, France then the US. But to be fair the US paid the highest price to end slavery.
The fact that in the 19th century there were slave markets excisting in Afrika, doesnt mean that white people didnt commit crimes by buying them. Also they benefited by unfair trading which didnt make Africa richer. Also they committed crimes. But i think the statement that every race is guilty to abuse and misuse is the big thing here. Also slavery and racisme are separate issues. But we cant progress as people if we keep using the past as a reason to hate. And as a white person, just wanted to say that both of you look gorgeous!
Dixiecrats jumped ship and became Republicans immediately after the Civil Rights Act was signed into law in 1964. Segregationist Strom Thurmond born in 1902, left the Democratic party to become a Republican in 1964. Strom remained a Republican lawmaker until his death in 2003. Videos like this are misleading because they fail to mention both parties did a 180 degree in ideology. Although liberal Republicans abolished slavery, not the conservatives of today's Republican MAGA party. Civil Right leaders from the 1950' and 60's Adam Clayton Powell, Andrew Young, Julian Bond, Elijah Cummings, John Lewis and Rev Jesse Jackson have remained affiliated with today's Democratic party. Meanwhile Republicans recently gutted the 1965 Voting Rights Act and affirmative action. too. Affirmative action was implemented to level the playing field for us because of all the economic and social injustices our surviving ancestors had to endure. Every house Republican including Byron Donalds voted against the 2019 John Lewis Voting Rights Act. Republican lawmakers also blocked this John Lewis VRA bill from being brought to the senate floor for a vote. Ask yourself how come the Republican party is diligently fighting to preserve Confederate monuments, flags and the names of confederate names on federal buildings, schools and our US military bases.
"I cant believe that" was said twice. When Candace said white majority countries ended slavery first, and when Candace said that current African slave markets arent generally selling to white men.
And why cant she believe those two things? Because those two facts would crush her black victimhood narrative.
Yes, all the raping, and murder, blocking people from school, destroying towns and businesses, blocking people from loans, blocking people from land ownership, forcing people into small neighborhoods and putting highways in the middle, jim crow, and denial of basic human rights, and the neceessity for a civil rights movment. It was all a 'narrative'.
Fucking idiocy.
yup
Correct. Victimhood is an addiction now and education would crush her narrative of being a vcitim as truly no one is opressed today in the west or do they deserve reperations. What is happening now is people who arent slaves are demanding they receive money from people who arent slavers. its pathetic, political and frankly disguting behaviour.
PERIODT 😂
Candace hand picks information and arranges in a nice little "hey white people, look-I'm defending you! Let me become rich and famous, too, ok?" And "black" people, sadly so often gullible because they want so badly to have something good to believe in, take her word for reality WITHOUT LOOKING INTO THEMSELVES. We all know slavery has been everywhere, old news, REAL old news, ya know? BUT THE USA, CALLING ITSELF THE "LAND OF FREEDOM", PROCLAIMING "INALIENABLE RIGHTS OF MAN", proceeded to NOT ONLY ENSLAVE MILLIONS OF PEOPLE OF COLOR, THEY TOOK IT ONE STEP FURTHER AND "SCIENTIFICALLY' CREATED A WHOLE NARRATIVE THAT PEOPLE OF COLOR WERE "INFERIOR", THAT THEY WERE "LESS THAN HUMAN", THAT THEY "DON'T HAVE FEELINGS LIKE WHITE PEOPLE", IN THIS COUNTRY OF FREEDOM AND INALIENABLE RIGHTS. Stop listening to this woman's history scam. She is playing to the "white" crowd to further her career and success, she is the "black" voice they need to absolve them of past and present oppression and racism! She gets GREATLY rewarded for this, and "white" America is DESPERATE for a "get out of jail free card". Its taken a LONG time but the history of "white" American cruelty oppression has been getting revealed BIG TIME and they can't put it back in the box. So they need these shills like Candace to have their guilt wiped clean. What she's doing is betraying people of color and its shameful. Its not about "victim mentality", its about the TRUTH of this hypocritical country and its hypocritical government, its hypocritical institutions, its hypocritical society. DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH AND STOP BELIEVING WHATEVER RUclips POPS UP. Candace, of course, found herself a "white" billionaire husband-no surprise there! And she still begs for donations on her videos, LOL! Also, these dear ladies aren't even AMERICAN, for crying out loud. They don't know the nasty history and oppressive politics of this "free" country. DO. YOUR. OWN. RESEARCH.
This is what a lack of education looks like. Being ignorant is not the problem, but staying ignorant is. I doubt they bother to learn more but I hope I'm wrong.
Yep
You mean staying ignorant on purpose. So, arrogant?
White people ended slavery doesn't mean nothing. Y'all education level is bad. White people are being punished for enslaving GOD people. What we think don't even matter

By all means ladies, google this for yourselves if you don't believe it; after 1833 the Royal Navy created a squadron of ships (only three to begin with, but more thereafter) to hunt down and suppress slave trading ships coming from the west African coasts; this squadron seems to have suffered casualties over the following decades as part of its patrols, but was apparently nonetheless effective in breaking up the slave trade shipping routes as far as it possibly could (at a time when slavery remained legal in America and many other European countries).
EVERY THING SHE SAID WAS 100% RIGHT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
not true
@@matiusbond6052 Yes true. Perhaps you should read some Horrible Histories.
@ElCarnivoroBBQ Haiti gained independence from France in 1804. They invaded the Dominican Republic in 1805 and took thousands of slaves. How is that banning the practice of slavery? Lol. Imagine if the Union army did that in 1865. Where do you guys learn this shit?
@ElCarnivoroBBQ Mexico in 1829
@ElCarnivoroBBQ Russia had slavery until the Tsar was overthrown.
I hope you let the facts change your hearts, because EVERYTHING Candace said is entirely true and you can easily verify this with a simple google search. Wishing you the best and God bless!
haiti WAS THE 1ST REPUBLIC TO CANCELL SLAVERY FOOL
None of that true kiddo slavery still exist it's just modern. And GOD will pumsihed white people for a thousand years it will happen. Candace just looking for a check
How can you not know this? Someone must have slept through the history lessons. Did you think that keeping slaves was a white thing? As far as I remember there were almost 4000 black slave owners in the usa.
Wouldn't surprise me none, I know Anthony Johnson was one of them.
Apparently Sunny Hostin from the View.
Indigenous people also owned black slaves.
You can look up the stats on the troops that died in the Civil War (to abolish slavery in the U.S.). About 10,000 blacks died in the fighting. 360,000 whites died in the Union Army during the war. Over 200,000 more whites go severely injured who didn't die specifically during the war, but many of them became lifetime cripples. The Union Army was almost entirely made up of whites. Nearly 2,500,000 whites vs under 180,000 blacks. Statistically speaking, there were about 3.4 million white men in free states between the ages of 19-44. About 2.5 million of them fought in the Union Army to end slavery. So about 73% of white men who would have been able to fight legally, did so. Of the 27% who didn't, you have to assume some of them were physically unable to (it was the 1800s after all, medicine and hospitals were still bad back then), and others had to continue to work to provide services and take care of families and children. 100% of them could not have gone off to fight without the Union states collapsing. 73% of able-bodied white men going to fight to end slavery is a really huge number. But black race hustlers act like this number is zero for some reason. As far as the blacks who fought, 75% of free black men at the time fought in the Union Army. So, 73% vs 75%, not a big difference. Roughly an identical percent of blacks and whites fought. But a much higher % of whites died than the blacks who fought. They died or became critically wounded at about a 250% rate (as a percentage vs their total number of troops of each race, not vs the total) vs blacks who fought since they were the frontliners most of the time, as white men made up over 93% of the Union Army. In total, they died at about ten times the rate of black soldiers. This is mostly due to the fact way more whites fought to end slavery than blacks. More than 10x as many whites vs blacks. These numbers are likely in public school history books here, but they simply do not make a point of focusing on it. Maybe they should.
What Candice doesn't mention in her video is that in fact slavery was abolished in the U.S. in multiple states prior to the Civil War, and well before the United Kingdom abolished it. Within the very first presidency (George Washington's first term), almost half of the states had already passed laws to abolish slavery. Six of which had abolished it before he even took office (keeping in mind there were way less states back then, so that's 6 states out of 13 had already abolished it before the first president's term!). Two more abolished it during his first term, so it was only a handful of hangers-on states that didn't abolish it. The United States was in fact the first country (states) to officially pass legislature to end slavery. Additionally, by time the U.S. Civil War began (and again, as Candice said, mostly whites fought against the concept of slavery along with only a small number of blacks by comparison), only 1.4% of the U.S. population even owned slaves. So, to blame all whites for slavery even in the United States. . .is stupid. Barely over 1% of people even owned one. Where did I get that info, you may ask? U.S. Census stats just prior to that war. That is as accurate and factual as you are ever going to get. Any other source will be dubious by comparison.
The fact the United States is vilified for slavery is pretty much the dumbest possible stance someone could have on the subject since they're actually one of the primary countries responsible for slavery being mostly ended as a practice worldwide. She is also correct in that countries today that still practice slavery are all non-white. Mostly in Africa. Slavery was always the most prevalent in those countries to begin with.
The main reason it wasn't abolished in its entirety in the U.S. prior to the Civil War is the way we founded the country here. It was specifically meant to be governed on the state level and not have "executive orders" passed down dictatorially. The country was founded specifically to NOT be controlled by a centralized power (such as a King). So, each state's elected officials were responsible for passing laws to abolish it. Fact is, not all did it. Much political discourse happened to change that ever since the country won the Revolutionary War after its founding in 1776. keeping in mind, the United States was not a country in 1619-1775, but was a colony of the British Empire. Effectively it was Great Britain, not The United States until 1776. So, to blame the United States for 1619-1775 is ludicrous as it didn't even exist yet. Abolishing it as a whole here required a lot of time, political process, and revising how the country worked as a whole. You can't naysay them for not creating the ideal government immediately the moment they had a chance. They were building from nothing. You can't go from nothing to suddenly perfection instantly on the first try. Especially when you had millions of people who had differing opinions on what a perfect country actually would be!
So, everything she said was true. She left out a lot of info (which only would have made whites look better), but I listed some of the stuff she left out as best I could here if you two were still curious about this subject. You can verify everything I've said online with relative ease. If you can't, reply to me and I will link you sources of the stuff you can't find. You will not find any race hustlers offering you the same since they're full of crap. Hopefully some day slavery also ends in Africa as well, so no one has to suffer under it anymore. It is and always was an abhorrent practice.
nice response! could you send me some of those links you mentioned? I just want to learn as many details as I possibly can, I'm already well versed in a lot of this but it never hurts to learn more!

I like to gain as many perspectives, or as wide of a perspective as I possibly can on subjects like these. appreciate it.
Well said sir, I believe that, about George Washington, and some others . Cuz I heard something/ research that " George Washington was the type of guy who worked out with his slaves even though they were his slaves", also wanted his slaves to learn to read and write, and wanted his slaves to join the army to fight for their independence, sides Washington kept losing men between battles against the Britain which they also called as "red coats". But the politicians that time wouldn't allow him to let his slaves join the war to fight for their independence but they don't talk about that, they just talk about what they want people to hear not what they need to hear about history, which is part of the reason why they are trying to erase our history". And also too the black people who are offended by their own ancestors being slaves to white people sure I can imagine how abuse it was, but to blame white people for enslaving their black ancestors is also the stupidest thing, instead they should blame Africa for selling their own people as slaves around the world in the first place, but I doubt they even know that part of their history.
@@randymaylowski2485 They don't. The people who rail and rant and screech about this the most think that Africa was some kind of Utopia and only focus on "1619", and ignore everything prior to that except to incorrectly assume everything was perfect and great if only white people didn't show up. Entirely incorrect. But if they were actually well-versed in their own history, they wouldn't be race hustling now. It's just their chosen profession or hobby because it at least seems apparently easier to obtain money and attention by doing that than by actually earning it by doing something productive.
Denying Civil war is crazy 🤣
The lady in pink is in denial.
.. "i dont think this is true" .. sad reality of ignorance and misinformation
Feel sorry for you
Ethiopia (Africa) had between 2 and 4 million slaves in the early 20th Century out of a total population of 11 million. Ethiopia abolished slavery on August 26, 1942.
Thats why was put as "Formally" as in a law or an act...
These people are the definition of someone holding onto the false black victimhood narrative. real sad
I learned this when I was young.
To the two young ladies in the video, you should proceed with educating yourselves and doing your own research. You should see what Candace as done in her presentation, not the end of a journey of learning, but only the beginning. Every race, culture, nationality has endured slavery. What Candace Owen stated was it was predominately White Nations, like the UK and the USA that implemented laws to try to eradicate slavery, now its up to you, to see when those laws where implemented and see if other nations, especially in Africa, brought about laws to support the ending of slavery, either around the same time, or even before.
Not only just that, theses gorgeous women in this video should do research on their own country's history. Than they will realize that their own ancestors sold their own people as slaves around the world. Which was stupid in the first place, treated them like vehicles of selling them for income. But hopefully these ladies will realize that not all white people owned blacks for slaves and not all white people treated their slaves in a cruelty way.
they were bringing a lot of stuff to Africa besides drinks and mirrors, also guns and other objects Africa didn't have
Come on ladies. You know that Africa is full of a multitude of tribes. "Their own people" is not their own people. They are people of different tribes. In the same way that a white Viking would enslave a white Brit. it is silly saying :A black enslaving another black person"???
She didn't say it was ONLY whites fighting to end slavery. She said MOST were whites. There were black soldiers too.
The first person in America to own slaves was a black man named Anthony Johnson do your research 😂😂😂😂😂
APTTMH! Did he buck break them, hang them on trees, separate the families, systematically destroy them, destroy their heritage and identity? Even if other nations were slaves, how is it those people still knew who they were still? Anyone who believes this garbage are a part of the bloodsuckers. Did she speak some facts, absolutely cause even lies start from truth but her downplaying what devils did is proof people still sell their souls
No he wasn't
@@KemetledAfrica because Native Americans enslaved each other?
@@Liam-nf1dp Good point.
@@KemetledAfricahe was its proven
1807 Britain abolished the Atlantic slave trade. They abolished slavery in the British Empire in 1833 but had abolished the trade 25 years earlier. Black Africans were some of the worst slavers as were Arabs who engaged in the barbary slave trade. There are still slaves in many countries.
It wasn't completely official until 1838, after the Black president of MEXICO Vincento Ramon Guerrero ended it completely in 1837. Don't forget the British Supported the Confederacy. They needed the Slave produced Cotton so whole families in England could work their textile floors. To quote Candace, " History is Complicated". You want to forget the Brits along with the Dutch and Arabs and West Africans and Americans had their hands dirty. To be fair it cost America the MOST to end slavery.
She’s literally stated fact, not her beliefs.
What you think or your opinion is irrelevant, truth is truth, fact is fact, history is history.
Knowledge is key 👍🏻

Here is something you can be proud of: during the Civil War the North originally had only White soldiers but they were losing the war! The Black begged to be allowed to fight for their freedom and when Blacks were allowed to join the Union army and fight, they turned the tide and DID help win their freedom! Go to your library and read about your history. Start with Frederick Douglas!
You need to return to your library dear, because what you have written is nonsense!
@@Peter-oe2fe what I have written is the truth! Blacks begged and begged to be allowed to fight for their freedom but the Union Army would not enlist them. Meanwhile they were losing fighting men right and left; partly from heavy casualties and partly from men refusing to fight for various reasons. Finally, in an act of desperation they enlisted the Black man because they needed soldiers. These men were fighting for their lives of freedom and that of their families and they were fully invested in the fight. That is what turned the tide. You can talk about this battle and that battle but the real turn came when men were allowed to fight for their freedom.
@@marciabenson9371 Yet more nonsense. Seriously though Marcia, you need to find a better library, or perhaps it is your comprehension that is lacking!
Isn't that what the movie "Glory" was based on? I think it was! Excellent movie, too.
@@ourgracefulearth I don’t know, somehow I missed that movie. But if you have not read it Brian Kilmeade wrote a book that touches on that. I think it’s called “The President and the Freedom Fighter”. It is a non fiction about Lincoln and Frederick Douglas. Great book, I think you’d like it.
well it's true ,slavery was everywhere , it was a old backward mindset, in Africa and arab to this date slavery is practiced in patches ,
every race sold their weaker people in slave trade , they did intra tribe or kingdom slave trade
Everything Candace Owens said is absolutely true and verifiable. Dr. Thomas Sowell says the same thing.
No it's not. GOD knows what Candace doing. She trying to speak good on her oppressors like most blacks. But GOD will still punish white people it's in the bible this just her worldly take.
learn history of the Balkans everyting is a true,our 500 years ottoman slavery finish 1878,but Balkans never cry,open your eyes and stop live in the past lovely gurls :)
Its history, you can learn these things if you choose to. Far better than to speculate and wonder aimlessly.
We learned this in school in Canada. There is an excellent mini series called the Book of Negros based on a book written by an amazing African woman telling her story of slavery and the British abolitionists.
Peace and respect from Saskatchewan 🇨🇦🖖🏻
British official ended slavery in 1837, but continued to support the Confederacy because they needed SLAVE produced Cotton so whole families could work the factory floors of their Textiles. Remember " History is Complicated".
The Brits totally ended it in 1838, the Black president of MEXICO Vincento Ramon Guerrero ended it one year earlier. Get the Brit and American Abolition, but remember the British Supported the Confederacy who produced Cotton for them through slavery. Then had entire families on the factory floors in their textiles. As Candace says " History is Complicated". To be fair it cost the US the Most to end Slavery.
School
Is a place where the political people on power want you to believe. History is written and documented. School has became a place to teach what modern government leaders and their supporters want to go believe.
All black people do not have a high opinion of other black people, and that is how slavery was going on in Africa. I support Candice Owen's all the way💯. These two young ladies just don't understand that all African groups will not value life for the rest of African groups.
This was taught in school in the 50’s & 60’s see if you can find a history book from that time period to see what different way it was taught.
The sad fact is they no longer teach history they now teach a narrative
They got to realize it isn't about the color of the skin it's about the people treating everybody the same no matter the color of the skin. That's the unity we need
There is only one race, the human race. Man's inhumanity to man (in the non gender specific sense of the word) knows no bounds. People were enslaved because they could be. A stronger group needs a workforce, they enslave a weaker group. Race had nothing to do with it. It was all about labor. As far as putting an end to slavery, what Candice quoted was the countries that did it in an official capacity. There were other countries that also progressed towards the ending of slavery. However for clarity, you should realize that all ethnic groups have been enslaved at one time or another. And while there is open slavery still occurring in some countries, an underground of slavery exists in just about every country. Human trafficking (women forced into prostitution against their will as a prime example) is very widespread. Unfortunately we are flawed as a species. But we continue to try and rise above it. The ongoing campaign of blaming white people for all the ills of the world by groups like BLM serves to only divide. And when one takes a hard look at them, you find out that it's all about money. But don't take my word for anything. Research for yourself and become educated on the facts. Good luck.
I knew this decades ago after learning it in school in England in the 1950s and 1960s. But I have met young people who actually believe that slavery began with the Atlantic slave trade, and no amount of discussion could shift their belief. The lies told to us as children are the ones that are the hardest to correct, and it’s hard to hear that you have been believing a lie. My people were enslaved by the Romans, the Vikings, the Normans and the Arabs. At some point we need to move on otherwise the grudges will continue FOR EVER. My family are from the East Coast of England, from where many of the sailors for the West Africa Squadron were recruited (it's well worth your time checking some YT vids on that). My grandparents remembered grandfathers and uncles who served on the ships of the West Africa Squadron. Not all returned.
It is truth, all truth. Look it up yourself!
Wait till they find out white men made 98% of the technology we use today
That's not true. That's a trick. Slavery never ended the aganda just switch
So sad. They don't want to hear the truth.
You have access to Google. You can verify it all.
The question is, do you want the truth? It to you want to believe what makes you feel good.
It's very hard to admit when you have been lied to, and to seek the truth, and I applaud you for watching this. Candace is 100% accurate, and I hope you two seek out more information. White people are NOT your enemy!
Y'all crazy humans don't know what they talking about. GOd will punish white people no matter what Candace says she's not GOD. It's just her opinion.
To clarify, she never said whites were the only ones fighting. She said white countries were the first to put anti-slavery laws into effect and to make an effort to end slavery internationally, which is 100% true. Took at countries that made laws for it, and what years they came into place. You know some countries in the middle east didn't formerly end slavery until the 1960s? Your parents or grandparents, who are alive STILL, were around when that happened. And they did not end it willingly; it was international pressure from mostly white countries.
That being said, some white people (like some of the southerners who lost the Civil War in America) fled to South America, with slaves, and continued slavery there. Later, they had families with the slaves and other local populations and slavery just slowly ended. That is one reason Brazilians used to look so beautiful and exotic; they were the first area to intermingle races. I would say more so than early America, even.
There are even a few celebrations that woke activists in South America are trying to end, because they include the "Rebel Flag," or the red flag with the big X on it that the South used to fly. But the flag isn't the same there. Their ancestors eventually all found a way to forget the past, interconnect, end slavery and become united without a government forcing the issue. As far as I could tell, all the ones celebrating were of mixed heritage. But people were trying to tell them that they were "racist" for using that flag to celebrate, even though it was their ancestors who were both the slavers and enslaved, and they, knowing that, chose to celebrate their heritage.
There's a lot of ignorant nonsense out there, I recommend learning the history of something before hating or trying to destroy something for its history. Same with loving something for its history. Look at the Democratic Party in America for an example of that.
Truth hurts
What’s your thought about this ?????🥺
Honestly there is a bit of truth in what she is saying
Everything is true . Watch Thomas Sowell for more informations.
Greetings from germany.
@@tatamay126 I agree, I haven't been able to find anything in here that is factually untrue. Slavery is a broad topic, and there's much that was left out. But, in her defense, the video title is "A Brief History of Slavery" so it doesn't claim to be comprehensive.
She was speaking the truth it's actual history on the basics of slavery. With historical records to prove it what you learned in school was. History that was altered to to fit a narrative that is not real history. Because it was completely changed from what really happened. What she is saying is the 100% unaltered truth if you like it or not it's the truth.
Whites did not end slavery the slaves ended slavery..
It's all true you just don't want to accept it

No she not. Slavery never ended. That's the trick. Now black buying into the bs. BECASUE they oppress.
Never too late to learn the truth.
okay they weren't selling themselves they were selling their enemies. okay like the native americans there were many different tribes there were over 500 different tribes yes they looked the same but had different beliefs thats what made them different. in africa there was 3000 different tribes over 2000 different languages
For something to be so apart of somones culture and their daily struggles. One would think you would have done immense amount of research on the subject. But instead, learn it from a youtube video and deny the facts youre being told in a time that we have supercomputers in our pockets. Wild.
Truth hurts, but will set you free.
Primitive people thought very differently than modern people do.
Imagine watching two RUclipsrs deny the civil war😂😂😂😂
My comment seems to be a very prevalent issue for many people that are just learning about history in this way, so please take it as only informative not a "look down my nose" criticism.
for anyone getting into this and other deeper historical topics please try to remember that it's easy for us to look back and judge with extreme punitive scrutiny, however we must let go of all or as much as possible emotion and try to see through a more practical lens rather than a modern one. for example, many people, including myself, think that trading humans for trivial things such as mirrors, etc is even more abhorrent; but just remember at the time the world was not as connected as we are now so that means that there were many different civilizations at different points in the timeline of technological growth and industrialization so when presented with items that they may have never seen before, or did not produce themselves, etc it was seen as a valid trade. This is not to justify, only to remind that we must get as wide of a perspective as possible and examine these events with a purely academic outlook. I can only imagine a hundred years from now or any point in the long-term future what those peoples may look back and say about our ethics, standards, practices, moral fortitude, etc.
Additionally, African Americans were compelled to fight in the Civil War, and they did not have access to firearms.
We really dont care what u think. If someone tells u facts, your feelings and what u want to believe are irrelevants
She said "Lori iro" ie lies on lies!. Girls! I'm a Yoruba girl too. Go to Badagry you can still see where the slaves were held by fellow blacks to be sold to anyone.
Today theres still slavery in Libya, Saudi Arabia, Iran, China, Iraq, Kuwait, Pakistan, India and our very own Nigeria.
Everything Candace is saying is documented truth. My father was Slavic his people had been enslaved for 600 years before the first Africans were brought to the States. In fact the Irish were the first slaves in North America.
Why she is so focused on the “history” of slavery vs the abhorrent nature of it. Murder has take place throughout history, but it does it make it less bad?? Who cares about trying to prove that it existed throughout history, that is a fruitless counter. Absolutely meaningless! I guess black people are supposed to say, “well since it has already existed, I guess it was ok.” It puts her ignorance or full display…
Of course it was not okay. But calling white people evil because some of them had slaves while every other race has had them too is pretty hypocritical, don't you think?
Exactly
The point is that we only blame white people for slavery
Just wondering since your in disbelief, what did you read, watch as young, you must have come across greek or roman texts, movies, seen some documentaries about egypt (I mean as africans you would be interested in this awesome african civilization no?) Besides slavery is not a thing of race, why would you even think that... if you lost a war you most likely became a slave or were killed off, that's how it worked back then and sadly as mentioned mainly in africa is still today
Regarding the selling of black slaves by black people, it is important to consider that one of the main misconceptions is that "black Africans" were a thing... Sub-Saharan Africa was a melting pot of hundreds, if not thousands, of different tribes, often at war with each other. They didn't have a common " black" identity. They identified as a member of their particular tribe and the rest where the others. To be conquered, or feared, or avoided... Or enslaved.
Yes. These are facts. These are historic events. People of every color can be horrible. Knowing how humanity is, it shouldn't be too difficult to believe.

100% FACTS
I like the honesty...really I do
It's absolutely true that Britain abolished slavery and paid a outrageously high sum of money to pay for the freedom of slaves in the British empire.... the empire was so big and a large part depended on slave labour, the British government knew they would have a very big problem getting the slave owners to just let them go, so a compensation policy was introduced to pay for the cost of the purchase of the slaves and the loss of income to businesses..... the amount of money is estimated to have been around 40% of the total wealth of the biggest empire the world has ever seen.... remember Britain governed a quarter of the world landmass and a quarter of the world population, so she was very wealthy...... BTW the hard currency and international loans and sales of lands to raise the amount was finally paid off with the last payment in 2015 ....
Let's not forget the 50 years the royal navy " West Africa squadron" patrolled and ran down slave traders buying and selling slaves from Africa and the destruction of coastal fortress prisons that held kidnapped people to be sold.
Which cost the lives of 20,000 royal navy sailor and marines
over the 50 years....... and, the fact that the British army had to invade and conquer some African countries to stop them trading in slaves.....
Of course this is not good for the people who hate the British and the old empire, because they can't play the victim......
Our ancestors may have not been rich but that doesn't mean we weren't valued by our people and ancestors ❤
she was right on everything
Facts trump feelings, embrace the truth
So did wakanda end slavery?
This is true, slavery is still alive just not in America
I do have an honest question how did you guys believe slavery came to an end I mean like the slave trade and stuff
You just have to go to the library. 😊 or look around on the internet. Everything what she said, is 100% true!
❤
It's bloody true
Bruh all what is she saying are facts. They are facts because they are documented by books and sources that are know to be reliable. Just educate yourselves instead of being so annoying... Plus it's a black women (well culitvated, not like yall) saying that, yall dont even have confidence in your own sisters ? Smh...
Ignorance this was embarrassing.
Candice spoke the truth you can check it out for yourself
It hurts to see and hear your hate towards white people, in such a manner that you do not believe the truth about slavery.!
I am white (my wife is black)... My ancestors are the Vikings. The vikings took other vikings as slaves.! NOt people of colour, but other white scandinavians.!
You guys sound like your Nigerian and u know this is true my ex is from the igbo tribe and he told me this as well go and ask the people from edo state
Facts
candane does not have to explain it she jsut speaks truth har to hear for a a lot
Native Filipinos also enslaved native Filipinos in the past. Opposing barangays (towns) would battle it out and the losing town would become slaves to the winners.
Slavery happened almost everywhere in the world.
I don't study in the USA, but rather I study in Asia where we learn various world history. Let me tell you all the things that Candace Owens said were factually true. We learned about them in high school, when we learned about European History as well as Asian History, particularly Philippine History and some Chinese History. We tackled African History too, but not as much.
It is VERY well-known in history that Britain was the first EVER in the history of Earth to end slavery, I thought that most of this was common knowledge but apparently not. If you doubt her words, go pick up a history book in your local library and read it. You'll find that ancient Earth is gross, and messy and horrible and it'll be hard to accept, you may even vomit a couple of times when you read how all slaves were treated in the ancient world. Prepare yourself for that one...
That not TRUE. Vincento Ramon Guerrero the black president of MEXICO decreed it in 1829 fully realized in 1837. The British decreed it in 1837 and was fully realized in 1838. So Mexico wins, ha ha. Don't forget the British Supported the Confederacy, for their slave produced Cotton! So they could indenture entire families on their Textile Factory floors. To quote Candace " History IS complicated".
Go research it yourselves and think for yourselves
This is one of the most frustrating videos I’ve ever seen. “I don’t think that’s true” on every factual statement made. It takes nothing to check it yourself, but you choose not to. And play victim.
WOW!! The title of your reaction video is; "WE'RE SO MAD & PISSED." Did you know that Prager U videos (possibly this one included) have been approved as teaching material in Florida's public schools? Well, according to their new law, video's such as this one could, or should be banned! If you all are "pissed", I'm sure the black students watching it will be "pissed" also!
Florida public school curriculum bans workplaces and schools from teaching that anyone must feel "guilt, transgression, outrage or discomfort" based on their race as a result of actions by others in the past.
oh lord, I'm so sorry for u guys. first time I feel grateful to be born in Italy
@@fla652 For decades Black Americans have felt "guilt, transgression, outrage or discomfort" based on their race, while also suffering from discrimination. A new wave of White Conservative Christian Nationalist male politicians are dialing back all the racial progress that was gained over those decades. They are going to try to take "their" country back...BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY.
Wow just wow
She leaves out the fact conveniently that there were black abolitionists
That is a very very low estimate on slaves in Africa. Some estimates go as high as 20 to 30 Million.
Mexico was actually the first country to abolish slavery in 1829❤
Vincento Ramon Guerrero, thanks, l wrote back several paragraph details on the correct order. Mexico, Britain, France then the US. But to be fair the US paid the highest price to end slavery.
Beautiful and smart girls!
Wanting to be a victim when the facts show differently.. This is just sad. I hope yall looked into this and arnt deluding youselfs.
The fact that in the 19th century there were slave markets excisting in Afrika, doesnt mean that white people didnt commit crimes by buying them. Also they benefited by unfair trading which didnt make Africa richer. Also they committed crimes. But i think the statement that every race is guilty to abuse and misuse is the big thing here. Also slavery and racisme are separate issues. But we cant progress as people if we keep using the past as a reason to hate. And as a white person, just wanted to say that both of you look gorgeous!
As long as is a black person selling a black person or unfairly trading black on black that’s ok then. It’s just when whitey does it that it wrong?
It is true - do the research for yourself. I can't believe there are so many young people who don't know this.
Also. It’s all true
Open your minds ladies. These are historical facts and you can do the research yourself and see the truth. If you want the truth.
Mirrors and alcohol were very high on luxury in those times where mass production haven't started yet.
it is all true
How smart do i have to be to realize how stupid i am?
Dixiecrats jumped ship and became Republicans immediately after the Civil Rights Act was signed into law in 1964. Segregationist Strom Thurmond born in 1902, left the Democratic party to become a Republican in 1964. Strom remained a Republican lawmaker until his death in 2003. Videos like this are misleading because they fail to mention both parties did a 180 degree in ideology. Although liberal Republicans abolished slavery, not the conservatives of today's Republican MAGA party.
Civil Right leaders from the 1950' and 60's Adam Clayton Powell, Andrew Young, Julian Bond, Elijah Cummings, John Lewis and Rev Jesse Jackson have remained affiliated with today's Democratic party.
Meanwhile Republicans recently gutted the 1965 Voting Rights Act and affirmative action. too. Affirmative action was implemented to level the playing field for us because of all the economic and social injustices our surviving ancestors had to endure.
Every house Republican including Byron Donalds voted against the 2019 John Lewis Voting Rights Act. Republican lawmakers also blocked this John Lewis VRA bill from being brought to the senate floor for a vote. Ask yourself how come the Republican party is diligently fighting to preserve Confederate monuments, flags and the names of confederate names on federal buildings, schools and our US military bases.
2:40 Sorry doll, it is true. You just don’t want it to be true
I learned all this in school
