So were mine and most black people. It's just a natural consequence of having white in you lol. Many white people and mixed people are very much not racist though. Having slave owner in your blood doesn't really mean anything.

Except if you're white, apparently.

Right, except the slave trade helped build the African nation of Dahomey, under the rule of king Ghezo, who is known for saying:

"The slave trade is the ruling principle of my people. It is the source and glory of their wealth. The mother lulls the child to sleep with notes of triumph over an enemy reduced to slavery"

And during the height of the transatlantic slave trade, he bitterly fought British efforts to block and dismantle the slave trade.

So slavery was never about the color of their skin, it was about oppression. The most notable example being the fact that the word 'Slave' originates from the word "Slav" meaning the Slavic people, or the original slave race.

By the way, you're pretty racist dude. As evident from your predisposition against white people. Disgusting.

African slavery was about repaying debt. They were also still generally treated like humans unlike black slaves under white rule.

you're pretty racist dude.

I can be a race realist and not be racist. Thanks.

"African slavery was about repaying debt. They were also still generally treated like humans unlike black slaves under white rule."

Is that a fact though? Ask yourself, this. Have you ever wonder why other nations don't house the descendants of the slave trade from Africa like America does in spite of those nations taking in more slaves?

They don't host the descendants of their slaves because they were castrated or culled as if livestock. Where as in America, they were granted land, and given the family name of their former masters. America is the only known nation to not kill off their lineage after taking them on as slaves.

"I can be a race realist and not be racist. Thanks."

Yes, yes you can. But you may also need to work through some things before you fully understand yourself, and those who are actively working against our best interests.

a lot of native Americans fought for the confederacy and owned black slaves like the Cherokee

[–]StBlops2cel_is_Lord 3 insightful - 4 fun3 insightful - 3 fun4 insightful - 4 fun -  (3 children)

A lot of freed slaves went on to own slaves, lol

[–]mrchoco4 2 insightful - 4 fun2 insightful - 3 fun3 insightful - 4 fun -  (0 children)

very true especially in South Carolina. question was this common in Brazil? FAR more black slaves were in Brazil than in america. (however Brazil is not as race obsessed as america. for example portugese men commonly fathered mulatto sons from relationships with black women)

i am told that in islam that the men are allowed to take prisoners in war and keep them as slave for sex and labor purposes.

Allah(swt) is good to muslims, i make dua that he remembers to count my good deeds.

alhamdullilah.

Islam is right about everything, especially women.

This is factually incorrect.

[–]magnora7 4 insightful - 3 fun4 insightful - 2 fun5 insightful - 3 fun -  (0 children)

Yeah didn't only like 3% of white people in America ever own slaves? So most white people are not descended from slave owners.

[–]iraelmossadreddit 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

you sure it's from having white in you... what's a white person? someone who has white skin? someone that is caucasian? we don't call japanese or chinese white people... here is her "white ancestor" we lump a bunch of people in as being white or black when skin color is retarded thing to base race on... https://www.ncpedia.org/biography/brown-hamilton-allen

[–]bjam27 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

You're gaslighting that she had an ancestor that was raped.

That was absolutely not the case here.

[–]redditsabsenteedad 6 insightful - 2 fun6 insightful - 1 fun7 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

Anyone else not give a fuck what her ancestors did, and just hate her horrid record and despicable personality?

[–]BravoVictor 4 insightful - 4 fun4 insightful - 3 fun5 insightful - 4 fun -  (3 children)

So did Obama's.

[–]mrchoco4 3 insightful - 4 fun3 insightful - 3 fun4 insightful - 4 fun -  (2 children)

Obama is not even black he is mullato plus Kenyans are not related to African Americans. Kenyans look different too! for example Kenyans have smaller body frames, thinner hair, slender noses, and are skinnier. west africans (where slaves came from) have wider noses, thicker hair, and big body frames and tend to be taller or more "built" and pudgier compared to East Africans.

Wow you are retarded. "Black" is broadly understood to mean people of African descent. It's not just people from a specific region of Africa.

[–]mrchoco4 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

maybe mostly in america it is used to refer to people of the trans Atlantic slave trade. the POINT Is that Obama is not "black" in the sense that he is a descendant of the transatlantic slave trade. plus he never grew up with black culture. (ie southern baptists, soul culture etc).

Dad seems pretty based

[–]mrchoco4 4 insightful - 3 fun4 insightful - 2 fun5 insightful - 3 fun -  (2 children)

most blacks are mullatos these days. (sadly slave masters raped the female slaves) so yes a lot of black descendants of rape-babies have a white ancestor who was a slave master

[–]bjam27 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (1 child)

No one was raped. Her family married for love and the sweet slaveowner money.

[–]mrchoco4 3 insightful - 3 fun3 insightful - 2 fun4 insightful - 3 fun -  (0 children)

ehh yeah female hypergamy was a factor however a slave could not refuse sexual advances from the slave master. but I mean white slave masters were no different than mongols or arab/moorish conquerors of Europe who when they would win wars they would do "brutal activities" to women

Real African Americans are around 1/4 White.

Who do you think that “White Grandpa” was?

Let’s just say there is a reason they all love the Democrat Party.

[–]bjam27 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (1 child)

Democrats were pro slavery.

Harris's ancestors married for love. No rape.

Stop gaslighting.

I give you an F in reading comprehension.

[–]binrobinro 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

That's common knowledge.

So what? America almost wiped out the indigenous species.

[–]Questionable 3 insightful - 6 fun3 insightful - 5 fun4 insightful - 6 fun -  (2 children)

Are you referring to the Native Americans, or of buffalo?

[–]igorness 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

NA

[–]bjam27 2 insightful - 3 fun2 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 3 fun -  (0 children)

They weren't indigenous, they crossed the bering strait. The Para-Australoids were indigenous and were conquered by the Amero-Indians.

[–]bjam27 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

Lie.

Europeans spread diseases. America didn't exist. Amerindians also were Native they crossed the bering strait and conquered the natives.
