The Great Land Robbery: How Federal Policies Dispossessed Black Americans of Millions of Acres
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ส.ค. 2019
- Over the 20th century, black people in the U.S. were dispossessed of 12 million acres of land. Half of that loss - 6 million acres - occurred over just two decades, from 1950 to 1969, a period largely associated with the civil rights struggle. This mass land dispossession, which affected 98% of black agricultural land owners, is part of the pattern of institutional racism and discrimination that has contributed to the racial wealth gap in the United States. Many of the driving forces behind this land theft were legal and originated in federal policies, as documented by Vann Newkirk, staff writer at The Atlantic. His latest piece for the magazine is the September cover story: “The Great Land Robbery: The shameful story of how 1 million black families have been ripped from their farms.”

Like malcolm x says white people clip your wings and then calls you a cripple!
True fact's you already know
@@marvinmckinley6220 let us stop blaming white people it was government policies at all levels local, state and federal. The government owes black Americans a debt as MLK said we should go to collect the debt owed

Calling us lazy is much easier to swallow than the truth, isn’t it?
Right!!! Smh.
Pointless Banter facts
Cynthia Dickerson make that point in a conversation and they’ll make some ridiculous reference to our enslavement being in the Bible.
@@f8accompli238 - Your correct it is written and it is accurate. But do not be deceived as to why this happened. It is two fold, first because God's children turned aside, so He left them to their own means as a lesson that they might learn and that was the result, the adversary tried to take advantage of the opportunity created from letting their guard down. Secondly, so He would be justified when He rights everything. The True lesson here is that without God man is nothing but dust. This is the same reason for the situation today, most would rather run from God, still.. after all the evidence.. and proof.. and testimony, paid for with many lives. All this non sense of people trying to go it on their own simply does not work out and the reason is that is the way of the ungodly, since they do not know God and have none to turn to but themselves.
@@seanregehr4921 God is WITHIN. The Chrisitian bible is a tool to keep those who follow it spiritually and mentally enslaved, and thinking it's all "prophesized."
As soon as black people wake up from the dogma and get in touch with our true spirituality (not religion), we will be far better off. Christianity is roughly 2,000 years old, so what happened to the ancient spiritual knowledge that preceeded it?
They steal and steal. That is the nature of the beast.
My Dad use to tell stories about how they only got half the price as white farmers for there cotton when they sold it because they were black. Under cutting wages has always been, in this country as a way to keep black people poor. This has been done deliberately for centuries.
goldenleopard97 THEY KILL, THEY STEAL, AND THEY DESTROY! THAT IS THE NATURE OF THE "HEAD BEAST " WHICH IS LUCIFER, WHOSE DNA HAS BEEN PASSED DOWN TO HIS BEASTY MINIONS! YAH(THE MOST HIGH) HAS HIS CHOSEN PEOPLE, and satan HAS HIS! ISREALITES LOOK TO THE ALMIGHTY CREATOR FOR "COMPLETE FREEDOM" IN ALL ASPECTS! OUR SALVATION IS IN HIM, BY WAY OF HIS SON YASHUAH.
This is why black people need our own banks and financial institutions, so we don't have to depend on an oppressive system for our survival and livelihood.
We have black banks you would be surprised who they spend our money with
We did black wall street and look what happened
@@NaomiLeo5
So what's the solution, just give in? Black Wall street was a huge success by any standards. And that was long before many of us were even born, we are now living in a time where black people spend billions of dollars annually. So tell me why that wouldn't work today.
@@waynesimon9966
No I wouldn't. What choices do they have, when we seem to only shop with everyone else except black people. When we start being mindful of where we spend our money, black banks will have black businesses to invest in.
@NEGUS MBARKA
Brother we know we are not black, nor are white people white. We are African people, period.......... But let's not get caught up on semantics here and ignore the real issues. This is a Deception of our oppressor, they take our attention off the real issues and bog us down with things that don't mean shit.
So when people say Black people don’t deserve reputations, how about just give back what you stole?
Lmao! *Reputations*
*I agree with you* but, that was funny saying "Reputations" instead of Reparations!
Sugar Bear 💀💀💀 autocorrect got me! Even Apple is against us!
I live here in Mississippi, the county government stole my great grandfather land by not letting him pay his land taxes. They kicked my whole family off and sold my family plots. MFers
Take it to law if you can prove it fight for right
@Ale Lue Yah we're the majority here now, and the people won't do shit to progress for their own. I moved to the very tip of the state, to make GOOD MONEY (Truck driver) and live where the cost of living is the lowest in America. So as you can guess, it works for me.

@@ptate98 don't underestimate the power of trauma and how it reforms the psychological make up and DNA of a person that can then be passed down for generations. Black people have underestimated it, and therefore they don't get healing and the cycle of subservient behaviors continues. Sad.

What an incredible story... there seems to be no end of them. I thought "White Rage" and "The New Jim Crow" has catalogued it all... but no. There's always more.
Great reporting & interview.
Man. you black Ppl are not African Americans, you are the True Hebrews of the Bible. but you just don't see it. people have been trying to wake you up this whole time, The father has been trying to wake you up this whole time to tell you, that your ancestors were slaves in egypt and brought out by Moses, then, your ancestors have committed sins against the most high Yahuah, and then you paid for your ancestors sins. you were brought to America as slaves also known as "Egypt". America today is called Two symbolical names in the Scriptures 1. Egypt Duet 28:68 and Babylon Isaiah 48.
he's telling you that you were brought to America as slaves and.. that you will never find peace and will always be hated by all nations especially there in America by the Caucasians.
therefore, he is telling you to Flee out of Babylon (America) leave it. go back home, your captivity is now over. leave America because he is bringing plagues upon it.
Earthquakes, Floods, Tornadoes, Hailstorms, Hurricanes, Mass Shootings, opioid addictions which leads to death, Fires etc. Do you not see it? and then he's going to destroy America with Iran, and other Arab nations. they will surround America with ships and planes and jets and shoot at it and bomb it from afar till there be nothing left of America. you can see this in Jeremiah chapters 50, 51 and 52 and also 2 Ezra Chp 15.
if you come across this comment and you disregard it then your blood will be on your own heads. because I have warned you.
Great job to Amy & dn for another bs story to divide us and get a bunch of comments on u tube.
Way to stir the pot
@@jupitercyclops6521 you speak man's doctrine, you went to school and learned everything from man. that's why they call it HISTORY why? because its just that HIS-STORY. who's Story? the Caucasians story well. Satan is there father soo.. Caucasians lives are built on lies. But! here's your slave trade right here in the Bible.
Yea, and what have ye to do with me, O Tyre, and Zidon, and all the coasts of Philistia? will ye render me a recompence? and if ye recompense me, swiftly and speedily will I return your recompence upon your own head; Because ye have taken my silver and my gold, and have carried into your temples my goodly pleasant things: The children also of Judah and the children of Jerusalem have ye sold unto the Grecians, that ye might remove them far from their border.
Joel 3:4-6 KJV
you see, I've studied History and studied scripture I know where the slave trade in the Scriptures are.
also read Obadiah 1:1:14.
psalms 83
therefore these are all your Scriptures concerning the Slave trade and the so called negroes.
@@jupitercyclops6521 you just refuse to see beyond your White Supremacy wall of hate! Go and research history before you attempt to Gas Light otherwise it comes across way to obvious! Another thing, you're definitely not going to enjoy what TMH's about to force feed you to right wrongs in the littlest bit but, I will... Mock at that!
@@rudedan1621 gladly!

Where did u pull that from? Seriously, what did I say that was hateful or white suprimast?
Kinda racist of u to assume such a thing.

Here's the mock u asked for (read as whiney spoiled child); "He doesnt want to give me what I want. He hates me!!"

I’m white and an old southern woman and this is heartbreaking! How much more will we learn from real history if the truth comes out!! It is always always the rich white man that comes out on top .. like my grandfather lost his farm cause he couldn’t pay his taxes during the depression but the banker could see his family could purchase it at a pitiful amount .. the same folks that did this to him are still there and well off today .. but it was my great grandparents that cleared that land and made that 300 acres into farming land with fruit trees he planted .. so I can somewhat empathize .. but this is so low and disgusting .. I can’t think the heartache these people went through.. I hope they do get some compensation!
I can't help but think about how your family "acquired" that land in the first place...I wonder who your family stole it from or purchased it from someone else that stole it. What Native Americans had to be pushed off or killed for that land and how many black slaves had to work it in order for your family to have those 300 acres. It's laughable that you would compare your loss to that of the black people in this story. They were brought here against there will and had no other choice, but to farm that land. White people always find a way to benefit from others suffering even to gain sympathy. This is white supremacy at work. You couldn't just comment on the loss of the black farmers, but had to inject yourself into the comments. smh...
Classcism is different from racism. Your grandfather didn't pay his taxes however there was not system preventing him or running him off his land. Blaming the "rich" white man absolves other classes of racism when it is on all levels. From the white house to local governments. Also, during this depression you got policies to help you by FDR. Your father not paying his taxes was bad but racism never caused that.
Read what you wrote and reflect on it. If you can't see what is wrong you need to start looking to change from the inside out.
Sandy Anderson good catch on them taxes! Smh...your experience is not the same as ADOS. Smh
Melanin Queen I like the way you think.. but racism should be attacked but it always becomes an attack on people..
This is what Dr. Martin Luther King was talking about before he was killed. This country owes us ADOS!!!! and anybody who wants to think otherwise can go jump off a cliff.....THEY NEED TO PAY WHAT THEY OWE!!!
It will get paid with interest. The GOD of Israel will see to it. Shalom
That is a fact MLK was murder because he wanted financial equality.
Martin Luther King is part of the enduring problem. He unwittingly led black people into a trap. Integration was a mistake and towards the end of his life he realized it. He said "I fear I have integrated my people into a burning house" but by then it was too late. Black people would be so much better off had they stayed segregated. There would be more black schools, hospitals, financial institutions and corporations and black wealth would stay in the black communities for mich longer than it currently cycles. Not to mention so many young black people wouldn't be losing their minds behind the negative influences of "White America" and we wouldn't be getting gunned down in the streets of America by racist storm troopers because we'd be policing our own neighborhoods. Integration was a fatal mistake. Martin Luther King helped put us in this box. Why you think he has a National day and Malcolm X doesn't? It's a "thank you for your service".
before they pay you they will kill you. when the country finds out that you are the True Hebrews of the Bible you all will be killed. like sheep led to the slaughter. and then Iran and it's allies will come and destroy America, because all of you did not want to obey Yahuah's voice whenever he said Come out of her my Ppl.
forget about reparations, if they didn't give it to our ancestors then, they certainly not going to give it to us now. you all are fighting a lost cause. your fighting against Satan and his children. who kill you in the streets with their cops daily in broad daylight and no just is served upon them and they hold themselves not guilty for killing you. just obey Yahuah and leave America like he said to do. or you all will die in America with those white folks. Final warning!!! because once this war starts then that's it, game over for you all.
@@J3ferguson He died because he wanted financial equality and held them to the Civil Act Law of 1866.
All the people denying the truth will feel the truth soon enough. Yah is here.

The devil came to steal kill and to destroy. That's how you know who the devil is.
Three words... WE WANT REPARATIONS!!!
You didn't earn that though, your *ancestors* did. And they're no longer around. People should not receive what they didn't earn.
If people should not receive what they didn't earn, you need to leave the USA. If someone in your family dies and owe creditors they go after the decease person's Estate the Debt didn't die with the person. So YOU are benefiting from Black people Ancestors and you didn't earn it.

Go after it fam. Do your reaserch learn the law of the state and county u in . get that land back!!!
Allot of black Americans were ran off their lands under the fear of being lynched. Or land dispossessed by rhe state and federal government. These policies were intended to cripple black Americans. Black Americans should demand reparations it is a debt owed
Class action lawsuit...Lots of research,work and networking
Happen to my family. I happened to have old documents showing payments and signatures. My grandfather had to go into hiding after being threatened. Land was taken.
over 300 acres was taken from my great grandfather, Edisto DeVeaux for $5.00 taxes.
yes it sucks. I'm seeking ways to get land outside of america and help out there. america has made it clear that they don't want blacks to be nothing more than slaves, of course not physically, but mentally still think like a slave.
Case for Reperations
We were screwed from the start, and still keep striving!
Wow....how come he wasn't on the democratic reparations committee....instead of celebrities and idiots who don't even have a investment in it.....reparations is needed for ADOS now!!
You already know, because those idiots and immigrants where hand picked and bought.
That REPARATIONS Committee was an intended sham.
@@ddsfarmacy692 Yes I agree.....it was pandering....but for who...ADOS is 35 million.. black immigrants are 11 to 15 million....
What idiot in the democratic party actually thought that it was a good idea to do this garbage...They actually thought that ADOS would fall for that television scam farce.....I'm a immigrant myself..why don't they just get things in place to cash the ADOS check ??? And why are other elite black immigrant bootlicks trying to stop ADOS from getting reparations that they clearly are owed???? This is treason as far as I'm concerned...We should all be backing ADOS as one force...WTF absolutely treasonous..Marcus Garvey would turn in his grave seeing these Boule....butter biscuit eaters...
They should have gotten back ALL they Damn land back!!!
Plus the money the made on the timber, oil, and other minerals beneath the surface.
That's why the whites have 40 acres and a mule and we dont. Now I understand!!
So where's *my* 40 acres and a mule? All I have is this apartment and a slave wage job. It's not only the black people who got royally screwed....
@@Azrael_Garou That is on YOU! You have social capital to get in society. Stop being a victim and pull yourself out your bootstraps. Funny when black people say discrimination you attack us but when you try to justify when you have a bad day its all of a sudden "oppression".

White people have brain washed them since they been here. If the white man tell them they are natives then they will believe it then.
John Girard yes very TRUE, and so sad how our people have been controlled!
you arent native to the land

My question remains, WHEN was America ever great for Black people?
Hats off to Mr. Newkirk !!!! What a man !!!!!
We are prisoners of war on our own land...
Time of passage was 3 - 4 months. That means 200 vessels/ships per year would have to travel carrying 300 people. One ship could make 3 passages per year.
The Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade Database says there were 1100 - 1400 voyages made over that 300-year period. If that is the case and each ship carried 400 people, the total number would be 560,000 Africans were transported.
That number is close to the claim in Item 3 that says there were 600,000 slaves in the 13 colonies,
Because of the way, humans were tightly packed one-half of them died in route.
In Item 4, there were 4.5 million slaves in the US in 1860. After the Civil War 3.5 million slaves were freed.
Did Native American tribes help slaves escape or were Americans with African ancestry already part of the Native American Nations that existed before Columbus arrived on the scene?
We know Native Americans were enslaved, and Native Americans also enslaved people, but were these people who were enslaved Native Americans of African ancestry?
.
@THETRUTH202 YES U R ABSOLUTELY CORRECT!!!

@THETRUTH202 in the end, since the beginning, we all came from AFRICA. Some caucasian people won't accept that to this day.
No human being can be packed on a ship like that and survive 2 weeks. I suggest you study biology and disease. I worked in the medical field and I know it is impossible to pack humans like that.

Before we can pick up anything we need to pick ourselves up stop using the weed alcohol buying high price shoes the things we dont need start taking the money out of their pocket and keeping it in our own. Start thinking going to the next turnup is the best thing spend time teaching our childern. Look at your family we are only 2 generations from being extint. Stop shooting one another down this is what they want. Stop letting blessing flow from us by being stupid. Everyone one claims we are the chosen people but will GOD recognize us from others when we are in the same melting pot.
I’m glade this is being discussed 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿 and is coming to the light
If you were a poor landowner matter what color, if the government wanted your land, they were getting it. First the Natives...
Reparations will never come. You want something, you better take it.

Ezekiel 25:12-14 King James Version (KJV)
12 Thus saith the Lord God; Because that Edom hath dealt against the house of Judah by taking vengeance, and hath greatly offended, and revenged himself upon them;
13 Therefore thus saith the Lord God; I will also stretch out mine hand upon Edom, and will cut off man and beast from it; and I will make it desolate from Teman; and they of Dedan shall fall by the sword.
14 And I will lay my vengeance upon Edom by the hand of my people Israel: and they shall do in Edom according to mine anger and according to my fury; and they shall know my vengeance, saith the Lord God.
Obadiah 1:18
“And the house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau for stubble, and they shall kindle in them, and devour them; and there shall not be any remaining of the house of Esau; for the LORD hath spoken it.”

Wow this is a revelation to me. I had no idea. Thank you for sharing and returning this invaluable information to the social consciousness!
Thanks for your response. It is very good to get a response from a real PEOPLE, FROM THE LAND. You know that the creatures know who we are and are using it to their advantage. The problem is, our People do not believe or TRUST this Truth. After all of the crap, our ancestors had to deal with and some people are still dealing with. The Real Heirs to the Land are afraid to rightfully Claim, what is theirs. Shame on them.

I've noticed this since I was a small child and saw first hand the land disparities. There's a lot of land but little to none available to buy, even in small portions. Most of the land, especially the farmland, is owned by large private farmers or corporations. It's amazing
All this land belongs to our people!
This been going on since the beginning
GOING BACK , A FEW DECADES , WHIITE , AMERICA , TOOK THE LANDS , FROM ( REAL , AMERICAN INDIANS );.!!!!!! . YET , THIS COUNTRY , CELEBRATED , COLUMBUS PARIDE . .? . WHAT A CONTRADICTION IN HISTORY .!!!!!! . 😎🇺🇸😎📚📖📚🙏🏾..
So called Indians were also black!!
FYI....
THANK U .🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾......
They have proof black people were living here in this country too right along with the Indians. I watched a video of a film the other day where a white man was excitedly talking about the artifacts found in America and how black people here were actual leaders based on clothing and headdress. He excitedly explained that everyone would know that information in no time. The film I think took place in the early 70s. We never heard of that info. They shut it down. Most likely calling it unreliable and whatever else.
Columbus came looking for the northern kingdom.. So called indians gained the look the have by the raping of the so called white man who by BIBLICAL definition is really RED!
The same is the case for the MEXICAN residents of Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, California, Nevada, Utah, and Colorado before THIS theft of land, as well.
We all can scream first but still we have to work together.
Annette McLin no one is talking about Mexico here , this is about black farmers and their stolen lands ,
@THEGREAT GEEKSBY what u fail to realize we the same people. Same thing are going on in diffrent times. You fail to forget that so called illegals are held in concentration camps right now. Mothers are seperated from their children. Children are sexually abused in them places.The atrocities of the trans Atlantic salve trade also started when they brought people to south america and the islands of D.M Jamaica Haiti Brazil Venezuela. Do some history. Yes many have been whitewashed. With wicked people from Spain and Portugal. But they are our people too. That is why they are treated this way. That is why they pin us against each other they dont want us to unite. Again they did the same thing to Mexico new Mexico Arizona and southern California. They made treaties and didnt uphold them. But for us they will never give in cause our seed is strong our YAH is with us and will judge them for their sins agains his people. Repent and follow the laws statues and commandments. Learn your history before 1500. It's the bible the whole thing. And it is talking bout you and me. Its time to wake up. Get right or get left
A great man. Keep up the good work and always fight the power. RESPECT AND PROTECTION TO YOU BROTHER.. Peace Fam 2019 K.N.
sad but needed history to be told publicly
Yet another reason for reparations .
This is a good basis for Reparations.
This breaks my heart.
And we Blacks are so in love with the "Dream."
This is exactly where the conversation should go whenever someone says "all people were enslaved at some time in history" ....or "we have to put American blacks experience in this country in context"....
Sounds about whyte and the land will NEVER, EVER be returned to the decendents of the documented owners.
My great-grandfather John Thomas of Uniontown Alabama he was a dairy Farmer owner of 400 + acres he was ran off by Lynch mob of jealous white farmers then the land was stolen for him to run away to save his life and his self I am looking for some help to retaining our land an I will and for my family and the rest of our mainly for his grandchildren
My God. They will never stop. They will never share. Never.
Good segment.
Karma is hell what goes around comes AROUND..you reap what you sow. Its say in the bible what was once last shale be first again make sure you read that again
This is the reason black people down sounth is poor they started out rich with everything for black family to thrive it was all stolen from them
This is the reason all Negroes are poor you got more people Negroes in the South that have land and etc... than you do up North... Northern people are not doing well at all either!... because we get a lot of your homeless people from up North living here in the South right here in Houston Texas. Yeah a lot of poor black people everywhere all over the world all over this country just can't point the South out.
Very well spoken
as we sit there and cry, the world keeps moving forward, this is a part of nature the strong eats the weak.

Reparations now.
Any upward mobility in the black community is considered threatening. We must invest and sacrafice for our kids educational and moral disciplines as each generation should be better off than the previous. The powers that be cut off everthing that could be passed along for generational wealth. This is the key.
Know a man in ft. worth texas that had land taken from his family that's now worth billions. Read about it in Ebony magazine 1979.
Why did this not come out while Obama was in office?
shan1234 craig Wow! What a powerful comment!
You mean indigenous Indians lost their land. All laws are not God's law.
And the Indians are always the bad guys in cowboy movies😡
@@victorfrieson2644 In their perverse view of reality, the devils did and do see it this way. Ignorance among them is truly at an all time high
She should now do a peace on giving them 1millon people back the land.🤷🏾♀️
A similar thing happened to my grandmother's side of the family, except we never got the land back.
Malcolm X, MLK, and Minister Farrakhan is still defending our Rights as African Americans......
How??? 2/3 u mentioned are DEAD.......WE GOTTA DO THOSE SAME THINGS THEY DID ESPECIALLY MALCOLM!!!!
BB Bostic i wholeheartedly agree
Bobby Johnson Yes Malcolm X definitely defended our cultural heritage..... I agree
THE TRUE HEBREW ISRAELITES, NOT BLACK GET IT RIGHT!!!
Well what are they
This is partly why “MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN is a great slogan . There was a time in our history when Black Americans were doing good and productive. As a matter of fact Black Americans were doing so good the Democratic Party formed the KKK. But when the game and the rules are created and you don’t know the game and the rules you will always lose. This is why Black People have to be innovative. Always creating your own game and rules. This is what Kay Williams always talk about.
Wow! We have a lil patch in Mississippi, I assume we had to fight for just that land
If one creates a debt it must be paid, no matter the length of time.
This is what reparations are needed for not just slavery
We must unite not divide ! They will be scare when we all unite!
This is the history of Cinderella and the evil stepmother. The daughter became the maid and every right was denied to her.
It was popular in the 17 century and it keeps fresh even today.
And this has nothing to do with Trump the US Government is the problem .
I wonder what Native Americans. Think?
They have nothing to say. Talk to your elders on why you should remain silent.
@CHIGGS 58TH The Cherokee. Yes. Some of them held slaves.
@CHIGGS 58TH Wow.. Not cool. I heard it was just the Cherokee on a documentary.
@CHIGGS 58TH I understand.
@CHIGGS 58TH Thanks I will.
*so what are the next steps to right these wrongs?* 🤔
Give us our 40 acres and mules - It's time to permanently separate.
