Slavery ended as “more and more territories around the world consolidated into nation states with their own armies and navies, raiding those territories to capture and enslave the people who lived within them became more hazardous…”. Further, “Slavery did not die out quietly of its own accord. It went down fighting to the bitter end - and it lost only because Europeans had gunpowder weapons first.” … “Ironically, the anti-slavery ideology behind this process began to develop in eighteenth-century Britain, at a time when the British Empire led the world in slave trading, and when the economy of most of its overseas colonies in the Western Hemisphere depended on slaves …While slavery was common to all civilizations, as well as to peoples considered uncivilized, only one civilization developed a moral revulsion against it, very late in hits history…not even the leading moralists in other civilizations rejected slavery at all….Moreover, within Western civilization, the principle impetus for the abolition of slavery came first from very conservative religious activists - people who would today be called ‘the religious right.’…this story is not ‘politically correct’ in today’s terms. Hence it is ignored, as if it never happened.” - Thomas Sowell
Im still amazed at how they took the time to gather up all the "slaves" to politely and socially take pictures. My favorite slave picture is the one where the one who'd been severely whipped n beaten had his picture taken. He looked like he had no care in the world. THE HISTORY IS A LIE!!!
