TRUTH about the White Slave Trade - Forgotten History

[@gmajor1273]

I am a black man and I have always resented the idea that whenever people think of slaves they only think of black people. As you correctly pointed out, slavery was a thing that impacted virtually everyone in the world of all races. I am a proud American who loves this country and the men and women of all races who founded it. Slavery did not start with white people in America and America has done more than enough to end the problem of slavery around the world.

[@stephenkennedy8305]

The problem there is how slavery was practiced. Pre American slavery was quite different. Mainly slaves were considered humans who were enslaved. In America, all of America not just the US, slaves were property. Pre American the children of slaves were born free. Non America slaves also were allowed to be educated, many slaves rose to positions of power. Genghis Khan had many administrator who were slaves. The general of Peter the Great's armies was a slave. One of the 4 champion of Muhammad was a slave. Moreover, the Romans also used slaves for administration. Slaves were allowed to buy their freedom. Additionally, slaves had basic rights. Owners were not allowed to kill slaves without a writ. Yes there were abuses and most slaves were used for labor. America changed that. In Virginia in the 1600s the doctrine of partus sequitur ventrem was inserted into the laws of slavery, ruling that the children born in the colonies took the place or status of their mothers; therefore, children of enslaved mothers were born into slavery as chattel. So all bullshit aside white slavery (though honestly I should say pre American, as all races were slaves) had it privileges. Pre-America a owner could have a slave of his own race. In America, you had to be Native or black. So there is no history of white slavery, there is a history of slavery, then a history of American slavery.

[@stephenkennedy8305]

Gary Major Sorry, your ignorance of slavery is profound. Pre American slavery was non racist. White people had white slaves. Black people had white slaves. Slavery was not based on race. Slavery was based on circumstances. Most slaves were prisoners of war or pirate raids. America did not volunteer to end slavery, it took a war to end it legally. Then we continued it with sharecropping and Jim Crow. Slavery with slaves as property started in white America. American made a law saying children of slaves were slaves. America also made it racist and took away all slave rights. I like America, I served 9 years in the military and am a 100 percent disabled veteran. (I don't say love because I do not believe in nationalism, it leads to a closed mind) but do not white wash our history. Do remember the South withdrew to protect slavery. But the North did not originally fight to end slavery. The North fought to preserve the Union.

White slavery lasted in America even after slavery was banned. They just called it indentured servants. Millions of Slavic people, Mediterranean, and Irish were brought to America to counter the slave ban and it actually lasted into the 20th century. How do I know that? My polish great grandparents met on a plantation when they were servants. This was only 2 generations removed from myself. That’s how lucky we are to live in this time.

I had a phenomenal history teacher (survivor of WWII) in junior high who taught us all the politically incorrect, yet critical parts of history... From white slavery to currency manipulation a la the Spanish and British, to the opium wars and everything in between... I soaked up everything he taught while most of my classmates rolled their eyes, but have spent the last 30 years stunned at how little everyone else around me knows. At first people thought I was a snotty know it all, then I spent a lot of time believing most people around me must have been slackers, and then I started to think that maybe I just had a unique experience in American public education.

You were very fortunate to have a teacher like that. I had a World History teacher in high school who attempted to teach a broader version of our textbook history (California, so...very limited historical information & definitely with a particular narrative that excludes white slavery). A student reported this teacher as straying from the textbook & so he was warned not to teach us anything but the limited garbage in our textbooks. It saddens me to hear the things I hear about what children are being taught today. It's even worse than it was when I was still in school & I graduated in the 1980s. Our youth need to know the truth. Slavery & human trafficking of all sorts has been occurring since before the birth of Christ. It has been done by all races at one time or another & continues in many places on this planet. No human being should be a slave. Ever. And no human being should be judged as evil, subhuman, stupid or opportunistic simply by the color of their skin or their religious beliefs. Noobody! As modern human beings, we may not know exactly where & when slavery began, but we could & SHOULD be able to end it. Everywhere. Forever.

Even the nuns from a monastery, which probably became sex slaves in North Africa. Their attacks were pretty common, and caused an economic underdevelopement in the area since they stole all they could and took people as slaves, as well as killing many men.

England's oldest infantry Regiment has "Tangiers 1661" as it's earliest battle honour. The phrase "Briton's never,never,never shall be slaves" (in 'Rule Britannia') relates to the abduction of whole English villages along the south coast by Barbary pirates fron North Africa. The West Africa squadron of the RN stopped boats bound for the Americas after an English Court ruled that slavery in England (&therefore in all common law juristictions worldwide) was unlawful. It was known as 'the Somerset Case'. (From an English Veteran:) )

Slavery is wrong an should not be tolerated but unfortunately it's still around in different guides such as sex trafficking of women an young girls. If history was honest an not changed it would even include the Indians of or now called native Americans had slaves, I'm sure there was bad blood between different tribes an fighting among them an the losers were pressed into slaves unless killed.

My. Thoughts Exactly. People forget that the theme songs from each of our Brothers & Sisters that have served and fought in battle (even our own "Star Spangled Banner") has a history where men and women of various creeds and ethic backgrounds died so that the rest of us can enjoy and thrive in both freedom & liberty. "Freedom & Liberty, bought with Blood & Sacrifice." There is another allegory that I use. "By One Man (the Carpenter), a select group of people and ultimately a nation would be both redeemed and saved; by that Nation; a World; by that World, a Galaxy; by that Galaxy, a Universe." We have yet to see the Carpenters fulfillment of that, but I have every confidence He will complete His Purpose.

Well said! All I hear is mainstream popularity shaming people about historical events that we didn't, and wouldn't, participate in. The Arabic slave trade is still ongoing. The ancient Egyptians were prolific slavers. As were nearly all countries of the world, that had any sort of population. If anything, the US practiced slavery for the least amount of time amongst all other countries. Slavery was only legal in the US for 86 years (illegalized by the Union president, a couple years before the Civil War started). While that was a sad part of our history, I'm proud of my people for being the change in the world. We were the nation that encouraged all oppressed to rise up against tyranny. And now tyranny tries to shame us for one of our best world-changing cultural shifts! The protests you see worldwide are echoes of our Revolution.

But I do know that during the time of Jefferson that was a turning point in American history and I think that's what caused the United States to become involved in deeper and deeper foreign affairs.... So kudos to you for your in-depth coverage of this.... And what's amazing to see is that so much slavery is still accepted today even here in the United States with the 13th amendment which still allows slavery under criminal conviction which is ironic because the government pretty much has a blank check authority to use any criminal for slavery purposes and it makes you wonder if these criminal charges aren't deliberately trumped up to guarantee more slaves for government and I've heard that there is a list of like 100 corporations that rely upon slave labor literally of convicts.... There has been the talk of abolition amendment to the thirteenth amendment and I have always believed that the 13th amendment even when I was in school continue to have an open loophole for slavery.... But I know for a fact that there are many people not only here but through out the world that are serving as slaves for indentured servants.... My ex-fiance was a Filipina and she was a slave in Taiwan under the quote suppose pretense of a contract she was treated absolutely like a slave and most of those Philippine workers Indonesian workers and Malaysian workers are sent all throughout Asia Saudi Arabia and even the United States and they virtually have no rights and many of them are murdered.... Of course they do make money but it's like ridiculously low amounts just like with prisoners here in the United States the ridiculous little amount of money that prisoners are they work for all these big corporations and the government....truly sad.... And they wonder why there's over five million people in the US prisons.... And that were a complete prison state and police state....

Wouldn't say it's the worst, but should be taught as well. Thanks for watching.

[@colinheaton4902]

And it was not unique either

[@britishqueen94]

Why because it was against the white man by Muslims?

[@injusticeanywherethreatens265]

The worst? Really? The Holocaust wasn't worse? Where the people worked making boots and other military equipment and then turned into soap by the very people they worked for? ...Really?...

How is this the worst?

Every time I make this fact known, there is no response from other groups. The truth is hard or impossible to refute. I also make them aware that more American boys died in the defense of freedom during the civil war for the black slaves than all other wars combined We have paid our dues in blood shed by our for fathers and owe them nothing!

Yes that was pointed out in the movie Glory.

[@colinheaton4902]

@@jackiemack8653 Correct, but remember that the issue of slavery never became a focal point until after Gettysburg in 1863, and the New York Draft Riots. While not being the original cause for the Civil War, Lincoln made slavery the major issue to rally the morality of the Union in fighting what he perceived as being evil.

[@jackiemack8653]

@@colinheaton4902 well you're right Lincoln didn't favor slavery but he also said he would do whatever he could to hold the Union together even if it meant slavery would continue. I read that somewhere. Can't recall where exactly. I READ a LOT.

My father use to tell me that it was funny that African Americans idolized Islam & took on Arab names when it was the Arabs that 1st enslaved them. I have several discussions on the subject ending in violence & name calling (racist) when they couldn’t defend their position. I remember mentioning of Barbary Pirates & being told that it was American imperial intent that led to bombing of Tripoli. I’ve known for a long time that was BS & feel the same way about that state of education in this country. 1st off we don’t educate our citizens anymore & 2nd what is taught is more indoctrination than instruction: they are teaching what to think not how to think. It’s disgusting. I seen it with my own eyes. We are witnessing the result with all the tribalism & polarization in the US. We can longer reach a consensus.

[@FORGOTTENHISTORYCHANNEL]

Our hope is that people will wake up to the truth and stop with the tribalism nonsense. We are being destroyed from within. Great post!

[@colinheaton4902]

That is why people have either taken their kids out of public schools.

Slavery has been every culture and colour. For some reason we have been fed what they want us to hear in schools and media. My mother in law is from Tunisia, she has a fair complexion and blue eyes and light brown hair. We did a DNA gift and wasn’t too surprised to see she had traces of Anglo Saxon, Danish, Sudanese and Moroccan genes.

Indeed. Thanks for sharing.

As an amateur historian myself I find the deliberate omission of "politically incorrect truths" by leftists extremely aggravating.

True that

[@frankmueller2781]

The horrors of the 'Slave Ship' traveling from Africa to the Americas are often brought up in regards to the transatlantic slave trade. Almost always they decry the high death rates of the slaves carried. Never mentioned (seemingly) is the fact that the sailors on board suffered the same death rates as those unfortunates. Disease spares no one.

[@FORGOTTENHISTORYCHANNEL]

That was true, thanks for posting.

[@colinheaton4902]

Agreed

[@richardtbrown756]

Wait, what!?! But who brought the diseases!?! 🤨 Now you want people to feel sorry for those that brought their dirty Anglo-European selves, across waters they had no right to, who infected and wiped out virtually whole nations? Did these sailors die in their tens of thousands? This is such a typical statement from a certain set of people, "What about-ism" 😏... and the channel creator actually responds to them.... God give me strength and make it make sense... 🙄
