I mean... For the federal minimum wage of $7.25 an hour, might as well be. That's less than $1200 a month BEFORE taxes are taken out. You can't even rent a shitty apartment for as low as $1200 these days. Not to mention Paying for a car, to get to work, food, or anything else... The average cost of an adult slave aged 17-18 in 1850 was the equivalent of $47k today... And the slave was only expected to live to the age of 21-22 years old... (to be fair the average white's expected lifespans wasn't much better at around 26-29 y/o). Minimum wage workers today don't even get paid that in 4 years of working. Basically, the companies aren't even paying minimum wage workers as much as it cost them for slaves back then... The biggest difference is the illusion of freedom today, and that if the minimum wage worker gets fucked up, instead of just dying, they get fucked by the hospital and go $80,000 in debt.
@@Richard_Frostyou’re correct. And don’t forget the school to prison pipeline . Because the jails are ran by private companies that are state funded from taxes, politicians can buy shares in those companies and steal your taxes. Also slave (jail) labour is very cheap, some US companies exploit that super cheap labour that make office stationary. Microsoft exploits jail labour to my knowledge. The thirteenth amendment never fully banned slavery, it says that it is prohibited except as a punishment for crime and is reworded as “forced servitude”. Forced servitude is literally just slavery there is no difference. This literally incentivised old slave catchers back in the day who were out of a job make sure blacks go to prison to provide labour for the exploitative capitalism and this system still exists today even in the UK. Britain only “abolished” slavery because France and other European forces had a monopoly on the slave market” and were worried that other countries would take over them as the dominant economic force in Europe. Also the resistance from slaves in particular Haiti made slavery, very dangerous and very expensive. Because of the frequent revolt Britain started losing money from slavery and abolished it.. even when it was abolished, former slaves were forced to spend 3/4 of their time working for their former masters with no wage for three years after the abolition. This was justified as compensation for former slave owners. So in essence, they had to work off the freedom.
as a black person this is true. Not all whites owned slaves. Infact there was many poor whites. Its important to know history. Only rich people owned slaves..this includes rich black folks.
Native Americans had slaves also and seemed to be the only ppl that actually gave the good ole 40 acres to slaves in Oklahoma. I wonder how a lot of black towns disappeared across the US?

You didn’t need to be rich to own slaves. Rich people had many slaves. Poor could get jobs as overseers on plantations. Middle income can afford one or 2 slaves. Becoming a slave master or a slave catcher was one way to become rich.
How about they fought for their own land & family. Without Southern men fighting in the war of Independence, we would have lost to England, an empire that was very much part of the slave trade & using slaves wherever they planted their flag.

A small population of rich plantation owners in the South did use the Irish immigrants as cheap labor before they had the idea to buy African slaves. The Irish immigrants couldn't withstand malaria, something Africans could bear. This is actually how slavery got started in the US, one of the youngest countries in the world. Slavery had been in play for thousands of years, in most ancient civilizations & even within many primitive cultures. But as far as this being directed towards his ancestors, they obviously were poor whites who worked their own land. They might be of Irish descent. The point is, his family didn't use slaves. Y'all should be happy instead of attacking him.
@@peggould5943not like usa Europe slavery Imagine you a slave you child his child his child child child child child All owned by 1 owner his son son son son son son son son Chains and all until you helped them industralise
People forget that not everyone owned slaves. This man is saying that his family was struggling to survive. This is why some people resent being told about their “privilege”. From his perspective, he’s not seeing that privilege. He’s seeing that his family was working hard and sacrificed their lives to protect their families and save the land that sustained their families. The truth is more complicated than just black and white and the sooner both races learn how to appreciate that complexity and find true understanding the better off we’ll be.
You do make a point. But that flag...Sorry. If that flag represented my heritage, I'd burn it and tell people my ancestors were still in Sweden or something.
Sounds like they wasted their “privilege” 😂 they didn’t have slaves because they thought it was morally corrupt they didn’t have slaves because they were poor and there lies the difference the flag still represents the same thing a confederacy that fought to keep its ideals in check one of them being slavery you can’t cherry pick the ideals a flag represent it’s a package deal
I don't think land owning families were considered poor. Indentured servants were. Now, if he meant his predecessors were indentured servants who later got land as payment for fighting for the south... he's still playing himself.
It certainly is important and the white boy knows his history. Bach on the other needs to stick to RUclips or tiktok or whatever he's trying to do these days
@@JasonWilliams-um2ntbro stop. If his family had plantation n was fighting under that flag they had slaves. The land his family was so called working would of cover slave prices 🙄
No he’s saying if they were cheaper his family woulda been able to afford them have them work the land and save THEIR farm. Slavery in America would’ve been a lot worse by his way of thinking with his woe is me energy
A slave was like $100k back then. I don't condone the lost cause mentality, but it was some of us that owned our own people and fought for that same flag to keep us in bondage.
He didn't play himself. He was telling the truth. Having slaves was an elite play and just because you "owned land", didn't mean you were rich. Hence the term, dirt farmer. Fun fact, there were black land owners that did own slaves. But they don't teach you that part in school. Once you get off the remedial, divide and conquer, color coded level you'll see its always really been about class.
Dude is an idiot for claiming his family fought under that flag but in reality it was rejected as a flag. It only became popular during desegregation. But yea most of us not stuck in the past know this. Love to know how he 'played himself' tho, anyone figure it out yet?
He didn’t say that at all. What he said was completely accurate most white people did not own slaves, slaves were a small portion of the Southern population, y’all are intentionally misrepresenting what he said..
@@bloodaonadeline8346ain’t no millions of negroes being shipped and simultaneously slave bred a small population😂 also slave rental was a thing for the Americans who couldn’t afford to own a slave it was actually pretty lucrative and a bustling business for the average American to take part of..
i mean sucks to suck, his family were to poor to have slaves. i bet if they had the means they would have bough some too and so would any of you as well. you can go to any country that still practices slavery or any form of indentured servitude, w/e they are homogenous or a multicultural society they still have people enslaved or forced or paid into service of others. only americans in 2023 love to sit online virtue signaling on how pure they are as if it matters in the real world. if y'all still bent outta shape over it go around the world with the crusade and make sure to end it in all the dark corners of the world and not just the places you like to visit on vacation.

@@trashtalker9753 correct. There are more slaves today than in any other point in history. But all we hear about is a trade that ended 160 yrs ago. Why is that?
Dude may have set himself like that, but after doing some research I found out that on average a farmer made about $65-97 dollars a month from 1860-1866 while a slave was $200-300 dollars depending. (If this made you mad sorry to say I'm native and like history so I did my research and shared it all with yall)
Now just imagine someone who benefited from nazi Germany and the holocaust saying that to Jewish people. "My family didn't participate in the holocaust we didn't have enough money to afford gas chambers "... cringey right??? THAT'S HOW WE FEEL 😢#BLACK IN AMERICA
He’s making a point that not everybody could afford a slave. Just because you were white doesn’t mean you owned a slave, just like there were plenty of black slave owners!
He's saying we because anyone of African descent was enslaved. And slavery and confederate flags are considered controversial today.. As a matter of fact, murderous, predatory white supremacist enslavers are honored on currency, statues, buildings, mountains, holidays, TV, school, textbooks, everywhere. Nazi Germany was demonized and claimed evil in America but America just needs time to forget slavery and the hundreds of millions that suffered. Pure evil.
That’s a lie. I live in MS born and raised… the confederates tricked the piss poor whites to fight in the war like they did the slaves… they told white farmers if they fought in the war then it would save their land . They fell for the lies just like slaves did Some Blacks of 2023 are evil if y’all think you’re the only race that was affected by slavery! Others suffered being in the middle of the crap and they couldn’t do anything because they were just as poor I guess y’all aren’t familiar with the phrase “good vs evil” I wish y’all would keep this same energy for all the black slave owners like Anthony Johnson that wanted slavery forever😂😂 it was literally rich vs poor and they turned it into black vs white Democrats really have tricked black people into oppression! I pray y’all seek god and eliminate this hate for strangers y’all have never met 😂
Every race on earth has been a slave at one time or another. Fun fact the first legal slave owner in America was a black man whom owned white and black slaves. Anthony johnson.
That's why they say it's systematic racism. They don't even realize what they're saying it's built in the system like it's supposed to be like that.🤷🏾♂️
He isn't saying what he said out of envy of other whites that owned slaves, but to show just how ignorant other people are of the reality of how many whites really owned slaves back then. And I can tell you: it was 1%.... that's it. Only the most wealthy of families could own slaves, and the distance between upper and lower classes was super drastic back then. 99% of white people were unable to have the luxury of owning a slave (it was seen as a privilege back then to have slaves cater to your every whim), and almost every white person in America didn't have this. This is what this white guy is trying to say, and he's tired of having his family and that flag associated with slavery when most of the families that still fly it never even owned slaves.
He didn't play himself. He's saying his ancestors couldn't afford to buy slaves which were actually really expensive. The point is, his family had nothing to do with slavery. They were just poor whites working their own land. & bag of cereal? U had to have lots of money to buy slaves. It would be like going out to buy a Mercedes.
@@GenoG6 who fucking cares where your heritage is from... 400 years ago maybe our ancestor was from merica. Cool. What about your ancestor of 400 years ago. Where was his herritage from... do you know? Maybe it was from europe too, maybe from afrika, maybe from asia... who knows. One thing for sure is, you can't talk on behalf of your ancestors because they might have had a different opinion/perspective. Alot of propaganda has been going on since 400 years ago. You might be fighting for the side your ancestor was fighting againts. Dont be a fool to think that what you know is the truth. ask questions, more questions you ask more answers you'll get.
Hahaha, the reason he played himself is implying the only reason his family didn't get slaves was because they couldn't afford it, if they could they would get a box or two 😂. He could have simply said my family didn't own slaves we worked the land ourselves.
No what he meant was back in the days, soave ownership was normal, just like now buying cars etc. Has nothing to do with racism, the slaves could of been white, he was saying during that era they dint take part of the slavery system. At the time the social construct was diferent.
You do know that white slave trade exeeded the black slave trade by 30 plus years right they put a stop to the atlantic slave trade in 1912 black slave trade ended in 1863 the atlantic slave trade was owned by the barbary coast pirates who were black they sold anyone and everyone they could get their hands on yes many nations bought them but it was the barbary pirates who did the capturing and selling to other nations they ruled the carabiean and atlantic after the brittish pulled out hell in 1912 roosevelt went down there and kicked their asses because they captured a us vessel and started up their slave trade again
True. In other words, if his family could have afforded slaves they would have owned a truck load of slaves. He basically admitted that his family was in support of slavery. He introduced an entire new dimension to that wicked and tragic time of slavery, that I am sure most people never thought of. That slavery would have been more widespread if the slaves were cheaper. And I should know, because I'm from Mars.
As a black man i understand what he meant stop the cap but also that aint his heritage flag unless that man got some indians in em kuz that a Confederate Indian flag which white ppl take

The Irish immigrants couldn't withstand malaria, something Africans could bear. This is actually how slavery got started in the US, one of the youngest countries in the world. Slavery had been in play for thousands of years, in most ancient civilizations & even within many primitive cultures. But as far as this being directed towards his ancestors, they obviously were poor whites who worked their own land. They might be of Irish descent. The point is, his family didn't use slaves. Y'all should be happy instead of attacking him.

There Was Both Colors Working As Slaves. And He Never Implied Color Of Skin. Slave Is A Slave.
That fine gentleman is the ideal preferred candidate to be the local sheriff.
People forget that not everyone owned slaves. This man is saying that his family was struggling to survive. This is why some people resent being told about their “privilege”.
From his perspective, he’s not seeing that privilege. He’s seeing that his family was working hard and sacrificed their lives to protect their families and save the land that sustained their families.
The truth is more complicated than just black and white and the sooner both races learn how to appreciate that complexity and find true understanding the better off we’ll be.
You do make a point. But that flag...Sorry. If that flag represented my heritage, I'd burn it and tell people my ancestors were still in Sweden or something.
Sounds like they wasted their “privilege” 😂 they didn’t have slaves because they thought it was morally corrupt they didn’t have slaves because they were poor and there lies the difference the flag still represents the same thing a confederacy that fought to keep its ideals in check one of them being slavery you can’t cherry pick the ideals a flag represent it’s a package deal
Agreed.
Agree its so much history and understanding. He just need to put the flag dwn
I don't think land owning families were considered poor. Indentured servants were. Now, if he meant his predecessors were indentured servants who later got land as payment for fighting for the south... he's still playing himself.
Knowing history is extremely important
It certainly is important and the white boy knows his history. Bach on the other needs to stick to RUclips or tiktok or whatever he's trying to do these days
Nobody knows history if you weren’t there. You know what you were told. And even then there are different stories.
Then talk to Niccas because they sold more niccas off than white folks 🤷🏼♂️
@@JasonWilliams-um2ntbro stop. If his family had plantation n was fighting under that flag they had slaves. The land his family was so called working would of cover slave prices 🙄
@@treyschofield2893 🤣🤣🤣 you think every person who had a plantation owned slaves? 🤣🤣🤣 the education system is failing us
😂i swear my lungs would've fail me if I was there 😂
Why can’t I ever come across people like this IRL. Where do I have to go
He is saying that they were freaking poor that having a slave is something his family can't even fathom.
He was not wrong in his comment.
No he’s saying if they were cheaper his family woulda been able to afford them have them work the land and save THEIR farm. Slavery in America would’ve been a lot worse by his way of thinking with his woe is me energy
No he's saying he was poor but if he was rich he would have, also the flag he's holding up mean he a racist.
Correct. Niqqas get emotional
blame our so-called system of education
A slave was like $100k back then. I don't condone the lost cause mentality, but it was some of us that owned our own people and fought for that same flag to keep us in bondage.
He didn't play himself. He was telling the truth. Having slaves was an elite play and just because you "owned land", didn't mean you were rich. Hence the term, dirt farmer. Fun fact, there were black land owners that did own slaves. But they don't teach you that part in school. Once you get off the remedial, divide and conquer, color coded level you'll see its always really been about class.
I'm still trying to figure out how he played himself 🤔
Dude is an idiot for claiming his family fought under that flag but in reality it was rejected as a flag. It only became popular during desegregation. But yea most of us not stuck in the past know this. Love to know how he 'played himself' tho, anyone figure it out yet?
@@ty194Exactly. The guy who asked, "who was working that farm?" played himself. Thinking that everyone had slaves. What an idiot.
He didn’t play himself. Too many people are too ignorant to know history. They just know enough to stay pissed. 😂🤷🏾♀️
@@ebonimynd4133hahahha. True. True.
Your average poor southerner never owned a slave. The confederate brass made the Confederacy to preserve slavery but most humans didn't have slaves.
When you find out the definition of racism is poor
Segregation was designed so that the poor class wouldn’t unite ! They still don’t want us to see we are in the same boat look really hard!

Race was invented to suggest white superiority
Trust me I'm not

Most Americans could not afford to buy a slave. They were very expensive
His family fought to keep slavery in practice. Sad thing is he probably believes what he is saying.
Bruh said we couldn’t afford no slaves!!! We was slaves too!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
He didn’t say that at all. What he said was completely accurate most white people did not own slaves, slaves were a small portion of the Southern population, y’all are intentionally misrepresenting what he said..
@@bloodaonadeline8346ain’t no millions of negroes being shipped and simultaneously slave bred a small population😂 also slave rental was a thing for the Americans who couldn’t afford to own a slave it was actually pretty lucrative and a bustling business for the average American to take part of..

i mean sucks to suck, his family were to poor to have slaves. i bet if they had the means they would have bough some too and so would any of you as well.
you can go to any country that still practices slavery or any form of indentured servitude, w/e they are homogenous or a multicultural society they still have people enslaved or forced or paid into service of others.
only americans in 2023 love to sit online virtue signaling on how pure they are as if it matters in the real world.

I honestly don’t understand why I was born on the same planet as people like this! Out of all the possibilities creation had to offer, since the beginning of time and this is what we get! 😢
Fact is,that period of time and all that was endured can not be forgotten or erased, flag and all. You can't delete history, you learn from it.
Trust and believe he believes his family took and L NOT owning a human
So why all the governors are trying to erase the black history. You want to keep that part but you don't want us to keep ours
Well considering roughly only 2% of Southerners actually owned slaves he is probably correct.
Northern folks owned slaves too
The entire country got rich off slavery including colleges and regular folks thriving off slave labor
Do they know how much slaves wanted to murder their slaveowners?
NOBODY should have owned slaves.
@@trashtalker9753 correct. There are more slaves today than in any other point in history. But all we hear about is a trade that ended 160 yrs ago. Why is that?
Dude may have set himself like that, but after doing some research I found out that on average a farmer made about $65-97 dollars a month from 1860-1866 while a slave was $200-300 dollars depending.
(If this made you mad sorry to say I'm native and like history so I did my research and shared it all with yall)
2 children arguing about something they know nothing about.
Man, they couldn’t even be racist to their full potential 😔
Basically what he’s mad about 😂
Now i actually wanna kno how much 🤷🏾♂️
RIGHT, LMBO😂😂😂
Mandingos sold for 1k on the lower end and normal slaves were 250- 300.
Now just imagine someone who benefited from nazi Germany and the holocaust saying that to Jewish people. "My family didn't participate in the holocaust we didn't have enough money to afford gas chambers "... cringey right???
THAT'S HOW WE FEEL 😢#BLACK IN AMERICA
He is 100% correct. His heritage is everything that flag represents. 😮
Some people are just not educated enough 😂
The fact that he knew they cost a lot. 💀💀💀
They did cost a lot
Treason isnt a herritage, its a crime.
He’s making a point that not everybody could afford a slave. Just because you were white doesn’t mean you owned a slave, just like there were plenty of black slave owners!
You ain’t no slave Bach stop sayin ‘“WE” 😂
Nahnow errybody on the plantation. Yall get a good return this year?
He's saying we because anyone of African descent was enslaved. And slavery and confederate flags are considered controversial today.. As a matter of fact, murderous, predatory white supremacist enslavers are honored on currency, statues, buildings, mountains, holidays, TV, school, textbooks, everywhere. Nazi Germany was demonized and claimed evil in America but America just needs time to forget slavery and the hundreds of millions that suffered. Pure evil.
Basically he's mad he did not have slaves and sees nothing wrong with slavery.
That’s a lie. I live in MS born and raised… the confederates tricked the piss poor whites to fight in the war like they did the slaves… they told white farmers if they fought in the war then it would save their land . They fell for the lies just like slaves did
Some Blacks of 2023 are evil if y’all think you’re the only race that was affected by slavery! Others suffered being in the middle of the crap and they couldn’t do anything because they were just as poor
I guess y’all aren’t familiar with the phrase “good vs evil”
I wish y’all would keep this same energy for all the black slave owners like Anthony Johnson that wanted slavery forever😂😂 it was literally rich vs poor and they turned it into black vs white
Democrats really have tricked black people into oppression! I pray y’all seek god and eliminate this hate for strangers y’all have never met 😂
Damn! That is a good question..... How much did my people cost back?!.... Pick 5 prices? 🤔
Dude ate the farm. 😂
Hommie should have practiced his comeback a little better 😂😂😂😂
I mean he's not wrong ,at that time a slave was equivalent to farm equipment.

"Do you know how much a slave cost?" 💀💀💀

Alot. Hes right. Only wealthy land owners had them.

Upset cause his family couldn't OWN a human being?
He isn't saying what he said out of envy of other whites that owned slaves, but to show just how ignorant other people are of the reality of how many whites really owned slaves back then. And I can tell you: it was 1%.... that's it. Only the most wealthy of families could own slaves, and the distance between upper and lower classes was super drastic back then. 99% of white people were unable to have the luxury of owning a slave (it was seen as a privilege back then to have slaves cater to your every whim), and almost every white person in America didn't have this. This is what this white guy is trying to say, and he's tired of having his family and that flag associated with slavery when most of the families that still fly it never even owned slaves.
Never understood why they don't understand, this clears so much up. All yall under that flag are delusional.
Damn😂😂 he's even angry.
🤣🤣🤣
Why wouldn't he be?
Stupid people that think white is bad.
Why did rich black own slaves? Cause they could.
Most whites couldn't.
All bro said was his family never owned slaves and told you why
Exactly, so shit gets bend. No logic. Where do people meet in the middle ? Sounds like a one way street.
😂😂😂
That man had pride good for him
He didn't play himself. He's saying his ancestors couldn't afford to buy slaves which were actually really expensive. The point is, his family had nothing to do with slavery. They were just poor whites working their own land. & bag of cereal? U had to have lots of money to buy slaves. It would be like going out to buy a Mercedes.

Hahaha, the reason he played himself is implying the only reason his family didn't get slaves was because they couldn't afford it, if they could they would get a box or two 😂. He could have simply said my family didn't own slaves we worked the land ourselves.
No what he meant was back in the days, soave ownership was normal, just like now buying cars etc. Has nothing to do with racism, the slaves could of been white, he was saying during that era they dint take part of the slavery system. At the time the social construct was diferent.
You do know that white slave trade exeeded the black slave trade by 30 plus years right they put a stop to the atlantic slave trade in 1912 black slave trade ended in 1863 the atlantic slave trade was owned by the barbary coast pirates who were black they sold anyone and everyone they could get their hands on yes many nations bought them but it was the barbary pirates who did the capturing and selling to other nations they ruled the carabiean and atlantic after the brittish pulled out hell in 1912 roosevelt went down there and kicked their asses because they captured a us vessel and started up their slave trade again
@@ElvetosWhite slaves in America? Hush.
True. In other words, if his family could have afforded slaves they would have owned a truck load of slaves. He basically admitted that his family was in support of slavery. He introduced an entire new dimension to that wicked and tragic time of slavery, that I am sure most people never thought of. That slavery would have been more widespread if the slaves were cheaper. And I should know, because I'm from Mars.
Thank you... My point to.
If weak insecurity was a person. 😂
We're there any white slaves too in that era ? 🤔
As a black man i understand what he meant stop the cap but also that aint his heritage flag unless that man got some indians in em kuz that a Confederate Indian flag which white ppl take
