Let it be well known, if the Nazis ever reached the shores of England, in 1940, Winston Churchill concluded a vital war cabinet meeting by saying, "If this long island story of ours is to end at last, let it end only when each one of us lies choking in his own blood upon the ground".
And I do honestly believe he was serious, for that is the brave man he truly was.
We are Westerners !
And Dare you Take Our United Culture From Us !
We have had the Greatest People ever .
All Westerners Unite !!
Douglas please be our next prime minister! You are the only man I hear that speaks sense, today is so depressing ☹️
The Christopher Columbus nonsense gets me every time... He was a 15th century conquistador in the middle of the Spanish inquisition who set off to find an alternate route to India because all of Europe was in a religious war with the Ottoman Turks and the Mediterranean slave trade was at its peak. But none of that matters because the natives he encountered were a bunch of peace loving hippies who believed in free love and community property.
His Royal Approval to sail was not to sell. Queen Isabella would have never approved the voyage for slavery.
Columbus was an explorer not a conquistador. I celebrate Columbus Day and that is not a slight against native Americans who not only made war against neighboring tribes, but also took slaves. If you’ve ever heard the lyrics to Neil Young’s Cortez the Killer and what he says about the indigenous people you realize how pervasive this incorrect narrative has been for a very long time. The anarchy and riots spurred on by the George Floyd incident was taken advantage of by BLM/ Antifa and their leftists cohorts. Nancy Pelosi’s response to tearing down statues was “people will do what people will do” and that is abhorrent.
Such an excellent interview……
Good riddance to those antiquated heroes of the past because now we can idolize rappers and basketball players who drop $30k for one night in a strip club
Kelly is such a fantastic reporter
Guilt free and proud.
All of these people benefitted from Columbus' achievements, including descendants of black slaves. The same goes for all of the other historical figures. It is so head-up-their-backside arrogant and hypocritical to take the action that they are taking. It's obscene. And it's complete cowardice to dump their crap on kids.
Reminds me of Pol pot’s regime where they tried to erase history and restart the calendar so the first year of his regime was year one. What I want is to turn this Marxist tide and then reinstall every single statue that has been torn down.
This is what they did to South Africa- seems like the exact same playbook.
And America and Britain helped make that happen. That's a much greater historical sin than any of this other nonsense they push on kids now.
The great underlying issue with wokeness is lack of humility. To look back into history is to look at a world we’ve never seen. But too many people today think they know exactly how it was to live then, exactly what motivated people they’ve never met, and exactly what “proper” moral standard they should have been following back then. People today are making themselves into little gods who can read minds and judge others based on 21 Century standards, as if they, of all human beings throughout all of history, are the ones with all the answers. That’s hubris. And it’s exactly what’s destroying our culture right now.
Exceptionally well put. Combine this unbridled hubris with a hyper secularization of moral/ethical primacy and you have a moral compass that has no true north. Feed the hubris with garbage intellectual endeavors that promote feeling over thinking, a total detachment from context in time or experience and you have multiple generations of folks completely untethered from reality.
They can become the most righteous, the most intellectually gifted and yet most "oppressed" at the same time. Generations of people that by any historical context have lived in the most free, most comfortable and protected world that has existed in millenia.
Far too many are perfectly comfortable to look back in time and judge with a sense of absolute moral, intellectual and "lived" experience authority from the cheapest seats of mankind's peanut gallery.
It is beyond pathetic! And the consequences are going to be extremely painful for all.
Can these same people so outraged about the past slavery work towards today's slavery of sex trafficking, children's sexual abuse, every generation has its own form of evil and it is better to fight today what is evil than to try and wipe out the past.
Modern Pirates put on white coats and plunder your Health Booty. All is as it ever was, Just with different costumes and Ad Men. People don’t change. Only Fashion does.
Kill off the hero’s and you kill off the idea. WEF playbook.
You CANNOT say children weren’t taught about slavery. That’s false on its face and can’t be conceded.
In the Dominican republic, Columbus is a hero.
I sailed into Key West spending 11 months there...had many Cuban Am. Friends, thanks to the "Anchor's Away Club"..The official position was stay out of Cuba...I was urged to give it a shot...by a guy who ran mail and supplies in his skiff to European sport fishing interests at Marina Hemingway... I was single handing.. I wasn't sailing back to the States...Cuban Joe mapped out a rudimentary course into Marina Hemingway for me..stay to the port side after entry ...Made it no problem...Felt proud flying the Cuban courtesy flag with the Stars & Stripes...something not seen in a long time together...I felt sorry the way the govt treated their own people...I will never forget walking past this small out-of-the-way park...in the front was a marble pedestal with a well sculped bronze bust of Abraham Lincoln..".I was shocked"...It was shining...I was emotionally taken...looked around...and remember saying to myself Father Abraham they are still slaves...but maybe some day...I'm a Historian by nature...These things might not mean much to most but to some striking reminder of things. Recognizing that these two flags were unique to current circumstances..flying side by side in Havana..I eventually sent them back to Cuban Joe...came as an Immigrant...owner of Key West Marine supply where I bought the small Cuban Courtesy flag...a memorable experience.... Key West a musical town...Gloria Estafan's 90 miles always a big hit...handing out bottles of asprin bought in the Key West dollar store...100 bottles.."They thought I was a Doctor...They had very little but a fantastic spirit. www.tomassailor.com
I always find it fascinating,when it comes to exceptionalism ,America is the best and the greatest and no other nation could come close,but if you mention slavery then,it’s well it’s was everywhere on earth.then how are you exceptional if you’re the same as everyone else
@Scorpio 13 so you’re saying the majority of the world isn’t free and somehow Americans are the free ones.my problem is with the exceptionalism debate surrounding America
@Scorpio 13 yeah I’d agree with the opportunity point. But still doesn’t change the exceptionalism debate if all your evils are the same as everyone’s else
Al quida and is is was destroying centuries old artifacts oversees, the same is here.
I believe Winston Churchill is the most important person of the 20th century.
Wokeness is nothing more than a group of people suffering from mass mental illness of various etiologies, but with the same end result of irrational thought processes and disconnection from reality. This is NO different from schizophrenia, borderline personality disorder, or many other related and similar conditions. It’s long overdue that wokeness is medically categorized in that manner. Come on fellow Doctors, speak up!
There were methodical records kept of the products (slaves) being transported and sold. Not names, but rather age, sex, health, build, so as to determine an appropriate price. So, out of the 14 Million + people that crossed the Atlantic and into the Americas (North, South and Central America) , About 480,000 went to the United States. That's 480,000 too many, yes . . . .
but also, _that's it_ ! ! Less than half a million out of over 14 MILLION ! ! !
This is the best example of why I call the New York Times, The New York Times Toilet Paper Company!
To think I learned about the American path to democracy and freedom as a young kid in East Africa, only to come to the West to learn that these ppl hated their own history!
Hear, hear. Terrible turn of events. America's is exceptionally sad. Germany and Rwanda have healed far better than America even though atrocities committed in each country is more recent than America's
Is the US and Canada becoming more gullible on the whole? There seems to be fewer and fewer people with common sense.
I'm 50 I know
I like Douglas, but I'm going to call shenanigans on Britain being the first to abolish slavery. The state of Vermont was the very first government in the history of the world to ban slavery, it included it in it's Constitution in 1776. Further, by 1814 all of the northern US states had legally or practically abolished slavery. Great Britain may have been the first of the great world powers of the 19th century to abolish slavery, but it was 58 years after Vermont.
Slavery was never actually legal though in Great Britain itself from the 12th century onwards - it was outside its boundaries with the Empire but never in England, Scotland or Wales. So it trumps Vermont in that sense. And Vermont was never of course a country - anymore than Cornwall.
@@martinmitchell7280 That's splitting hairs, England did use it's navy to insure that the slave trade to and from it colonies was protected. And yes, Vermont was a country in 1776, under the Articles of Confederation each of the original 13 colonies plus Vermont were independent nations with their own rule and sovereignty. The Articles defined the relationship each of these new nations would have towards each other, very much like the way treaties are treated. Even after the US Constitution was ratified in 1789 States were still sovereign, it wasn't until after the Civil war that the supremacy of Federal government was affirmed. The Civil war ended in 1865 so from 1776 to 1865 Vermont was a sovereign nation.
Haiti was the first country to abolish slavery
And I remember the impact that had on world history.
@@jwp2166 yeah,the us sanctioned Haiti cause they feared it might happen there.
When? Britain abolished slavery
A thousand year's ago. William the conqueror banished all slavery on English soil.
Chris never find america it.was the viking
English Guy: Yes, Churchill was admired as a war leader, but what he fails to mention and what will suprise most Americans, is that Churchill was not our Prime Minister at the end of WW2 .
In the 1945 election, the Soldiers' Election, he was voted out of office ..before Japan had been defeated.
People, like my father, saw Churchill for what he was, a great war leader- with one job. He wasn't seen as the leader to build a society that was better than the one their fathers, who had fought for in WW1, came back to.
So yes, I do admire the man, but without rose coloured glasses. Brits have a utilitarian view of our politicians. Boris Johnson was about to be kicked out of office, had Russia not invaded Ukraine. He is extremely likely to loose the next election- if his party don't remove him first. He was caught blatantly lying to us over CoVid restrictions. Imagine that. A country that will remove a politician for lying to us. And I'm on the right.
I went to Montecello two weeks ago and toured the entire estate and it is very upsetting that a man with such an amazing mind and talent - he was the architect that designed the house! - then u go under the house and saw the slave quarters and it is very sad and upsetting. It’s hard to see the context because he understood freedom so well. How can he write the Declaration of Independence and simultaneously own slaves. It’s hard to wrap ur head around. It just shows that he was just a man and was as flawed as anyone else. He did so many amazing things that shaped our country and gave us religious freedom and the ideas of independence. That time in the world was so different than today and it’s difficult to get the context right. But in the bookstore in Montecello they are selling Kendis book and are Angelo’s book because they offer an answer and it’s horrible and corrupt. I hate that those were the books featured. There is such complexity and nuance and real affects of history there and it’s up to us in america to frame the discussion correctly.
Back THEN all Americans were ENSLAVED to King GEORGE III...and in that if Anyone that came from Generations of ENTITLED WEALTH via the Monarchy...and They came out and said They were against Slavery...THEY WERE LYNCHED, MURDERED, THEIR WIVES RAPED, CHILDREN TAKEN AWAY AND KILLED. They lost Their Titles, Money, EVERYTHING!. So that is WHY Jefferson & Washington freed Slaves either later or in Their WILLS.
@@lindaastorquincyadams7712 True of Washington but Jefferson died in massive debt and only freed the slaves who were his children with Sally. That is what was said at Montecello. Also there were many many presidents after him that owned slaves and I know it was just the culture and norm back then. I am not judging that nor should anyone. But I guess what is upsetting is that Jefferson wrote the words “All men are created equal” and then didn’t even see how wrong he was in his own life. What I think is also important is the next line “endowed by our creator”. Human beings cannot give other humans freedom. Freedom and independence really all comes from God in the end. And that is the truth. The story of the founders is really that they set up the stepping stones for governmental freedom for the first time in history. And that eventually leads to the freedom for the slaves and others.
The guests are sometimes a bit too silly and it distracts from good information.
