Some people think that statues are history and should be preserved and that removing them is just pointless and does no good and is simply vandalism. Of course Olusogo isn’t one of them. Olusogo is one of a minority of radicals who take it upon themselves to decide on behalf of the majority of people that they are right and they can commit acts of vandalism. They are a small minority. Were the fate of statues put to a democratic vote Olusogo and his ilk would lose. How can Olusogo possibly defend undemocratic criminal acts?!
I'd like hear David's opinion on the 600,000 chattel slaves today in Nigeria. Also any remarks on the Osu and Ohu people in Nigeria. His insight on why slavery still persist in the African and Islamic world ? Never heard him comment on these issues, never shown any concern for contemporary crimes
@@ginamoses2279 I went to Lagos in 1975, I was 9 years old. We stayed with my grandfather's country man (same tribe) I called him uncle Raphael. He worked as a chief cook on the nigerian cargo ships - chief Cook. Raphael had 6 kids a wife and 2 shops across the rd from his house. He was middle class. He also had a house boy no older than 7. I found out years later Raphael bought the child from his impoverished parents from a poor village. Probably for the price of a chopper bike and the promise that he would be educated. That child fetched and carried, swept and mopped from dusk till dawn. He was shouted and barked at all day, I don't think I ever saw him smile once. David could address current issues re African slavery and exploitation going on today. Instead he's carved out a comfortable career manipulating English emotions for a institutional millenniums practise that the Crown ended Pretty sure he is the same tribe as my grandfather, my uncle and that child - Igbo
I'd love Olusoga write a book on the lot of the English working class in the early modern period...... wait...they would all be white.....ahh, I suppose that's not going to happen; Mr Olusoga doesn't have much interest in that group.
What a load of utter nonsense. This man is a Professor?? His University needs to reassess his position.
Why is it nonsense?
No nothing professor
@@ginamoses2279 Because it is all lies ? Do you require to be spoon fed information ? No wonder this country is fucked
His doctorate is honorary ....He doesn't have a Phd, he never studied beyond masters level!

@@dinsdag6juli2010 that’s true but she hasn’t proved from him wrong has she….
@@ginamoses2279 - you should try History Debunked. He has an interesting take on Dr O. You’re wrong to defend him.

Why should he? If you care so much about it why don’t you do something about it?

Simply shocking.
Ask him about Ernesto Elliott .
David tells porky pies
He’s not black he just over did the sunbed
Black African farther white British mother
Notice a pattern there ?
His book is fiction and has taken in the gullible.
Get him out!

Wonderful, thank you for sharing.
This guy harms our society. How can a university employ him?
Rescind his OBE.
well said david .. respect
My brother worked for the FAO several years in Mauretanië... He came back with awful stories of slavery ....
The state of the comments! When the racists are drawn out you know you’re doing the right thing.
Calling out lies isn’t racist!
Someone would benefit from a history lesson. . .
He is a proven liar.
Oooo David is so so handsome 😍
He hasn't got the wit or intelligence to be ashamed of the lies and b/s he is famous for.
