My God how could America imagine itself not being cursed from the barbarity of MOST of its history. Thomas Jefferson said on slavery, "When I reflect on God being a just God, I tremble for my country, knowing that his justice will not sleep forever" The Karma that this country has amassed is frightening. I am Cuban and Puerto Rican and this one drop rule is unthinkable from my perspective. In my family there were MARRIAGES between African men and African women with Spaniards, Italians and Greeks going back to the 1640's. Our African culture religion and foods were kept in tact. This was during the African enslavement period. Human beings make families together in NORMAL societies. America is a stain on humanity.
It was a different system. British/American Slave System vs the Latin American Slave System. Remember Cuba abolished slavery in 1886, The Spanish abolished slavery in PR in 1873. The Spanish and Portuguese had different slave systems, that allowed or encouraged Blanqueamiento. Which is one of the main reasons for the marriages that you speak of. See the 1895 Brazilian painting “Redemption of Ham”. Which is one of the reasons why in many Latin American countries, being black (dark skinned) is looked down on. PR and Cuban and other Latin American countries have their own stains and curses from slavery. Also remember it was American descents of slaves who have set the example for other people color when it comes freedom and rights. Another quote from Thomas Jefferson I know no error more consuming to an estate than that of stocking farms with men almost exclusively. I consider a woman who brings a child every two years as more profitable than the best man of the farm, what she produces is an addition to the capital, while his labors disappear in mere consumption.” This quote shows who was more valuable then and now.
The promotion of miscegenation in LATAM was to breed out the Blackeness. La Raza, remember. Please stop pretending there was ever an ounce of humanity in enslavement with the Spanish.
Abraham Lincoln visited one of these dreadful auctions ca. 1819 and he is recorded as being filled with burbling rage and saying, if I ever get the chance, I will bring this hideous practice to a halt forever.
@@kennethrichardson7945 No he was against humans being owned by another or working for nothing as a child he was forced to work for nothing by his dad and hated that. In his early days he was a man of his time and believed his race was superior but he changed later on ,he also saw the abuse and increase in mixed race children a main reason against slavery.
Lincoln supported colonization African Americans in 1862! He hosted a delegation of Freed African Americans wanting them to support the idea! Please stop it with your fake history of a hypocrite 👊🏾
@@kennethrichardson7945 No he did not support a man working for no reward or to make someone else rich,as I said earlier as a child he was forced to do hard labour for no pay by his father, as you rightly said he wanted to move black people to another country but his views changed as thousands blacks fought and helped swing the war that he came close to not winning.
@@kennethrichardson7945 Look it up for yourself. Find out. Don’t blindly accuse. And, after all gets said and done, open slave auctions ceased after the Civil War.
A woman or girl at the “fancy girls” auction was faced with a grim dilemma. If she is chosen to be a fancy girl, she would be sexually abused regularly. But if she was not chosen, she would end up a slave in the fields. Which one should she hope for?
@@morriswilburn9858 There was absolutely NO dignity in bei g a slave in America. In relation to your question, you can be in the field, WITHOUT PAY, be beat AND still be raped and sexually abused. Neither is a choice, you are forced into one or the other or both in a lifetime. Tone deaf inquiry.
the mentality lasted in my family as what I saw as what turned into a bipolar disorder. My grandmother broke the news to my mother that she was conceived in a house of ill repute in 1940.
I will be in N.O. this Friday. until the 6th. let me know if u are still interested in an interview for my screenplay "Fancy Girls" a trilogy, that will be in production as a film that will be shopped at major film markets in 2018-2019.
Because they feel like they dont owe us that.. I wouldn't even be surprised if they calculated what we would get just to take it away with fees and taxes, oh and if you ever got government assistance, social security, doctor bills, etc..
One question I would have for the professor is how did while women participate in the trade of “Fancy Girls”. I would be surprised if White women did not play a role .
Alot of souls look like they won't make it to the next life, good., Im tired of living alongside reprobates in their ghetto environment of a world they made , just wicked, depraved, sicko predators running rampant back then.....and now
This has existed for eons. Pretty women of all colors are taken and hidden by the biggest most horrible cavemen. It's human nature since the dawn of time. Grog big. Grog take pretty cavegirl. Grog fight other cavemen for grog's woman. Grog not let woman leave. Sadly same story.

Cuba and Puerto Rico had slavery as well. You come as if Cuban or Puerto Rican culture is superior. Because they are both just as racist as America.
You got that right. Then these same idiots have the audacity to ask why African Americans are the way they are. 🙄🙄🙄🙄

Starring Sandra Bullock, Gwyneth Paltrow and Scarlet Johansson??
Hi, just saw the you tube which is excellent. What happened to the movie? I would be very interested in seeing it.
Double slave trade indeed. Instead of narrating how it was, why cant you discuss reparations and vote for it very fast?
Because they feel like they dont owe us that.. I wouldn't even be surprised if they calculated what we would get just to take it away with fees and taxes, oh and if you ever got government assistance, social security, doctor bills, etc..
Who is the beginning music by, and title?

This was a really good talk, very informative. There was something that I already knew and somethings that I didn't.
Myself a Caucasian thought I'd heard everything about slacery, I learned things I didn't know. Thanks for sharing
Your honesty statement really struck me bc so much of the history of slaves/slavery,especially isn't told honestly.
