      I think he means that there is no way to actually OWN a living being.
      You may LEGALLY own that living being, but you can not completely control them. They still have their own voices and bodies.
      The fact that some people thought that they could own another human... It's disgusting.

      They had different values, in part because education back then was a luxury that very few had and it was very centered on religion, when you have ignorance + an extreme rought life (life back then for the average joe was NOT easy, specially at the sea) + seeing scenes of brutality pretty much everyday(for example people dying from diseases, authorities beating up people and burning people alive (for example during the inquisition)) = a group of people that have normalized brutality and don't have a notion what human dignity really is

    It did happen to my ancestors from Scotland after the English won the Battle of Culaden in the 1740's. The wearing of the clan tartan was forbidden and my people were shackled, endentured for 30 years (ie made into slaves) to pay for their passage. They escaped and settled on the frontier and later helped lead the revolution against Geo III.

    The Africans were not just purchased. The mothers of the children were captured and the children followed their mothers into captivity. The fathers came to the calls of their women and children and were captured after a few of the men killed by firearms. After a few men were dropped to their deaths, the rest of the men surrendered. It was a lot worse than this video could ever describe.

      that's something so many people ignore. the fact that the tribes from the coast dealing with white people attacked tribes behind them with guns that white people gave them and taught them how to use, along with the fact that white people entrapped coastal tribes in an arms race over more guns.
      So many people like to act like white people were just sailing out on an ocean cruise and africans came "with other africans" out of nowhere and just dropped them on the white people's ships, when the reality was that white people went around to as many tribes on the coast with guns as they could and played off of rivalries between the tribes.
      and so many people ignore that the reason why the coastal tribes were able to capture as many people for the whites as they did was because of the fact that the tribes behind them had could not defend themselves against the firearms that the white people supplied and trained the coastal tribes with. That's the reason why tribes that dealt with white people such as the dahomeyans grew to be such powerful kingdoms (compared to other tribes not dealing with white people. Dahomey was not powerful enough to take on white people later on)

    It’s mad how Virginia abolished slavery in the same year that the first remaining pro football (soccer) club was created which was Stoke city in 1863. It’s really not that long ago.

    It’s sad to think that this was ever legal. That this ever happened, and that it was ever allowed to happen. It hurts me, and it hurt a lot of people. It still hurts people today.
