I'm over 50 and I've been to 47 of the U.S. states and I've never seen anyone protesting a slave plantation, mine, or factory. I've never seen ads for slaves for sale or rent. Did my ancestors own slaves? Parents - no. Grandparents - no. Great grandparents - no. If you think slavery is still a problem here, there's always Liberia, or wherever your family came from, but just go ahead and leave.
ReplyDeleteI'm sick and tired of "black histrionics" month and constantly being lectured to by Peeples of Color about slavery and what this current crop of vibrant screeching apes think they are entitled too.
ReplyDelete99.9% of these screeching idiots were never slaves to anyone in the traditional sense. They are however, slaves to their lazy self-imposed ignorance, tribal allegiances, and eternal self-pity.
Black hysterical month.
DeleteSlavery is alive and well in the US……just called by a different name “human trafficking”
ReplyDeleteAnd, yes, I’m in favor of death penalty for traffickers- the majority of which are relatives of the victim (IME)
Should shipped them all back when we had the chance.
ReplyDelete@LuisI'mRacissssst!
Over 750,000 slaves in Africa blm is on it !
ReplyDeleteThis bullshit pander to the sambos "slavery shit" is more evidence we shoulda picked our own cotton.
ReplyDeleteAmerica greatest place in the world for any black persons to live. Yet they seem to think they deserve more. Fuck em.
ReplyDeleteWe say all that now, but historically, that has not always been the prevailing opinion, going back to the dawn of time.
ReplyDeleteToday, we view slavery as a moral wrong, but it's intellectually dishonest, if not hypocritical, to judge history by imposing modern values, for the same reason we abhor removing statues of historical figures.
