Jesse Lee Peterson.....dude I love that guy!! He cracks me up!.....you, do a Jesse Lee Peterson video.....
It's uplifting to see young people learning and embracing the truth about the past instead of just listening to people who want to keep the races divided in hate.
You guys should watch Thomas Sowell's video on how slavery was ended. It will blow your mind.
The Hidden Truth Behind The End Of Slavery - Thomas Sowell
This should terrify u. There r approximately 10 million human beings in slavery right now!! Extremely common in Asia and also some middle eastern countries (enslave North Africans)
"The Inconvenient Truth About Democrats/Republicans" would be a good next watch.
I remember watching Roots with my parents in the 80s when it came on TV. Back in the day, we believed just about everything that was on the TV, with little to no way of researching yourself.
You are right. I'm 65 and Tv had a big impact on my view of almost everything. Like you stated, no way to check...
Roots was and is a work of fiction. Its category is fiction in book shops. But for some reason, it got adopted as the truth . It fitted a narrative nicely and created a long lasting divide that is still prevailing today. What damage that book did.
Im not sure anyone has said racism doesnt exist. They have said that institutional racism doesnt exist. Its not a comment about peoples beliefs its about how the system is set up.
I moved to Louisiana several years ago and went to tour several of the plantations that are open for educational tours. I never knew about the black slave owners, but was enlightened about it when touring the Laura Plantation. The owner was a Creole, which was a mixed race woman, whose mother was black; she kept well over a hundred slaves and ruled them with an iron fist according to her own writings.
I agree with you about the Republicans and Democrats: Most are basically part of the Uni-Party....different sides of the same coin and none of them care about anyone outside their socio-economic circles.
there are some who dare to be outside the uniparty. but they get spied on by the FBI and accused of crimes that didn't happen.
I love Thomas Sowell! I homeschool and plan to have his books on the reading material when kids get old enough!
I(white boy) was adopted by a wonderful well off Black family when I was 11 in the mid 80s and I thought what most think today. My brother’s stepdad asked what I was learning in school and pops was teaching me to read because I had severe leaning disability. When I told him about what my teacher said regarding slavery he made me watch an old pbs of Mr Sowell. It’s awesome, he has a pretty sweet afro and laid the smack down on everyone with facts. Every video I see of Mr Sowell reminds me of pops and how much I miss him
The truth will set you free! 👌
Roots was not only a lie, he stole the story from another author. Please don't take my word for it, look it up.
Didn't Alex Haley commit soo-i-cide when he found out he was adopted?? 😄
I think where people get confused is that blacks weren’t enslaving “their people” they were enslaving surrounding tribes(enemies). Just because they were both black doesn’t not mean they were the same people. I don’t know where this got confused in history. That would be like someone from England calling someone from Ireland their people just because they’re both white and live close and we all know the Irish didn’t look at the english as “their people” back during the time of the Atlantic slave trade and African people didn’t look at all black people as “their people”. The biggest take away from the history of slavery should be that it was a business plain and simple. It was about money and status. They could care less what their slaves looked like as long as they made them money.
You recite the Western narrative that you are taught at school. Before the arrival of Arabs and whites in the 6th century, there is no trace of slavery in Africa. Slavery is a white and Arab practice (Yamnayas). If you say otherwise, show me sources
@@productionkaya Egypt use slavery, not for the pyramids but did have the practice for thousands of years, Sowell's list of tribes enslaving other tribes were "pagan" (neither Christian nor Muslim) when the European explorers met with them. Mensa Musa, the richest man in the world, who crashed Egypt's economy by throwing to him spare gold to peasants, controlled most of the gold mines in the "Gold Coast" of Africa and worked them with thousands of slaves.
@@productionkayathe fact that you are unaware of the slavery in Africa before Arabs and Europeans just means you are uneducated on the topic, it doesn't make it a fact.
The New Kingdom (1558-1080 BC) brought large numbers of slaves as prisoners of war up the Nile valley and used them for domestic and supervised labour. Ptolemaic Egypt (305 BC-30 BC) used both land and sea routes to bring in slaves.
ancient Egyptians who freely traded slaves since 3500 BCE. Ancient Egypt was known as a land of slave labor. The Egyptians were equal opportunity slave traders, enslaving Semitic people, their own people, and African tribal people as they had the opportunity. One idea for the origin of slavery among African tribal people was the adoption by warring tribes throughout Africa after some of their own people were captured by Egyptians and removed for labor, servitude, or conscription. Most slaves were women. Mature men and boys were usually slaughtered during raids because they would have been more of a threat than they were worth to the raiders. The young boys would be raised with little to no memory of the violence that broke their village culture. There are instances where mature men were taken captive and enslaved, depending on local practices and societal needs.
@@productionkaya Doesn't matter where the narrative is located - facts are facts. Egypt had slaves 5000 years ago! And Egypt is part of Africa.
Slave history says that the slaves were known as Jews. Ghanaian chiefs sacked the Kingdom of Judah and sold us to the British and The slave ports received shipments from The Kingdom of Judah for over 200 hundred years.
It's so sad that what we learned in our schools growing up has been re-structured or ignored to force feed a narrative of division and identity over truth and unity. Factual history with proper context may be harder to learn, but I think a greater understanding of humanity and progress would be more appreciated today. Understanding history is not only to not repeat it, but to move all of us forward together without the division and self-segregation that's reigniting all over.
He gave his PEOPLE an entire lie to Live go by... That's what Thomas (Sooo wellllll) Sowell
He said a “MYTH” to live by.. as in mythology… religion is mythology.. folklore is mythology… ✌🏼 not here to argue just wanted to clear that up.
Religion is real, may Allah guide you. @@sally2shoes
@@revertedrf978 science is real. May logic and reasoning guide you 😂 also… consult a dictionary because I was strictly speaking of the single WORD myth.. as it pertains to mythology.. which is the study of oral tradition and story telling.
The author in his own words said he gave his people a myth,he made it up there and then ,its not historical fact the characters in the book came from his imagination,it's not based on real events he researched,but it is a good book and film,but it's only for entertainment.
I just found out I am related to Frederick Douglas and Harriet Tubman. I was so excited!!!
I think it's great that you younger generation are getting this information out to more people. The system try to keep us at each other so they can profit off us. 🇺🇸
It's easier to control folks if you can put them into different boxes.
Just came across you two. Thanks for your comments, will be watching again.
Please watch more of true history pod's.
Very enlightening.
Jenny South Australia
Love y’all’s channel, I love the hunger of your knowledge and truth. To be frank…….. the history of slavery is a very complicated issue that we seem to try and make simple.
The most important fact being no one alive today [in America] ever owned slaves, nor was a slave. That one get's overlooked, ignored, and disrespected more than any other, and has for a few decades.
If I was an alien visiting this planet, I would be asking "wait a sec....you guys ended slavery, right?"
Then when some Leftist says "Yea, but...." I'd ask "was that a good, or a bad thing?"
LEFTIST: " well yea, but...."
ALIEN: "what I want to know is if you're glad it's over?. Are you happy that slavery's gone, and if not, why?"
LEFTIST: "You need to understand that....."
ALIEN: "But wasn't the point of ending it, to END the effects of it? So that it would not hurt anyone anymore? So that black people would no longer be under that burden, and their children would be born free, just as all slaves wish they were? That was the goal, right?"
LEFTIST: " man you don't get it...."
ALIEN: "What don't I get? When people were slaves, did they look forward to slavery's end? Did they think 'man that's going to be great when we are free at last. Can't wait for that day. We gonna party man!'
Or did they say ' it's going to suck when this slavery thing ends and we don't have to work for the plantation boss anymore, because then "racism", Jim Crow, etc. and we'll still be just as oppressed by whitey, forever on into the future, no matter that we are free, because slavery will always be hanging over us like a dark cloud that we can't escape from. In fact, it won't even matter if we become millionaires by playing sports for a living, or singing, playing guitar, being a talk show host, owning an estate bigger and better than anything we see today, making this plantation mansion look like a hole in the wall by comparison.
Nope, not going to matter, because whitey will still be oppressing us all the same. Hot & cold running water, electric lights and heat, MTV, phone service, and if we can't or don't want to work, we'll get state welfare checks. But all that shit ain't going to make no difference'. It will be just as if slavery never ended"
LEFTIST: "yes, the 2nd answer is more accurate, and let me explain why..."
ALIEN: "then why bother ending slavery? Since I can travel through time, I'm going to go back and tell them it won't be worth it at all, and will make no significant difference."
LEFTIST: "WAIT! Hold on, man...oh...uhm.....gimme a second......uh..."
ALIEN: "yea? You think maybe it was a good thing after all....?"
LEFTIST: " Yea. No....uh....mm...OK, go ahead. Maybe not ending slavery at all would be a good thing for our political party, and enable us to demonize this country and it's Constitution much easier and faster than we could otherwise. So yea. Go back and make sure they don't end it. That will give my party a much better advantage, and better talking points on how evil this country is, and why the Constitution needs to be abolished in favor of Socialism, then we can bring in Communism sooner."
"I hate politics...we all need Jesus" thank God there is finally a reactor who isn't buying into the MYSTERY OF INIQUITY (the political GAMES).
Like that you guys are learning facts. From your comments, I can see that you still have a long journey. That's OK. A journey of a thousand miles starts with one step. Good luck and God speed.
In medieval Europe, it wasn't uncommon to sell YOURSELF into slavery. Because of the taxes on the lands and having to give away your grain and livestock to the King or what have you, you'd be starving, exhausted and often unable to take care of your family. Selling yourself into slavery was an option because you'd be fed and have a roof over your head. Being a slave was sometimes easier than trying to get by in the countryside outside of castle walls or cities.
I'm a 55 year old white man who loves your channel because you keep it real but your dislike of Candace , Jesse, and other black conservatives are like others I watch. A black Conservative in America today is a treasure.
I don't care for those two much either. They seem to operate more on being divisive than trying to find common ground. Plus, I just can't stand Jesse's voice. 🤣 Can't take him seriously.
the next step in your enlightenment is to realize how, even those figure on the "conservative" side seem "based", they are still remnants of the establishment you obviously despise. i know what your next step is, but i will not say it, because i hope you can come to the conclusion yourself.
@@riverdrop777Jesse lee peterson was born and lived on a plantation during the time of jim crowe... he's a smart man. Been through alot and knows and speaks the truth when it comes to slavery and anything else alot of blacks blame whites for....
Great video. Thoughtful analysis guys.
The Baltic peoples were, at that time and still today, known as Slavs or Slavic. Hence the term, Slave.
The quest for power knows no race or compassion. Only ambition. Even today we see the examples of sacrificing our country for power.
Slavs are not Baltic ppl. Estonians, Latvians n Lithuanians. Slavs were slaves, mostly Russians, Ukrainians. they were slaves for the Huns, n Other Asian nations mirgrated from the east to Europe. until the Mongols came, the whole eastern slavs states are really became a slavery states to the Mongol empire. while the Baltic ppl mostly are Prussians, German, Scandivanians, Finnic ethnic groups rather than Slavic.
Politicians are supposed to be public servants. Instead these people make careers out of it and become millionaires. 350 million Americans, how much would it cost to buy homes for all Americans? They are spending over 800 billion on national defense with an open border this year. They are giving like 3 billion to Ukraine, probably some to themselves. Where is our money?
Many may be surprised to learn of the fact that the slave trade from Africa was outlawed in the US more than half a century before the US Civil War even started. In addition British, French and US naval forces were sent to try and stop the ongoing African slave trade to South America which persisted long after. That effort was largely unsuccessful, much like the drug war today fails to stop supply.
I love that you two think for yourself 😊 I don't agree 100% with your opinions and that's okay, I love the discussion. That's how we learn, by communication, listening to each other and being willing to educate ourselves!
Appreciate the comment
pre 20th century life was HARD for everyone. not sayin life isn't tough now but imagine clearing a forest by hand just to be able to plant some food for yourself.
Vulnerable doesn’t mean just living in poverty.
It also means weaker
It can also mean that they were concurred in war or battle.
I hope you react to more of Thomas sowell's videos
The dude that did Roots LIED.. point blank
Did he lie? or is it fiction? Ben Hur is fiction in the same way that Roots was. A real historical time and accurate in depiction but not based on a true life person or events. So too was Platoon, and hundreds of other movies.
Alex Haley's 1976 work Roots is not based on a true story. Haley has stated that Roots is a historical fiction novel since it is a fictitious story but is based in a historically factual era.
Unfortunately, Roots was championed by schools as a fully honest depiction to support a narrative.
Apocalypto is a great movie
Yes! One of my favorites!
You two are great because the talk your having seems to be productive where some who see these videos still argue.
Thank you we appreciated the comment t
Please check Larry elder
Before the Age of Enlightenment (between 1685 and 1815), societies were structured into distinct classes such as monarchy, aristocracy, or empire. A person's social status was predetermined by birth, meanwhile, concepts of liberty and freedom were neither achnowledge nor possible. Consequently, race was less a factor than class so individuals were divided based on their religion or class rather than race.
When European colonists arrived in America in the early 1600s, they imported this class-based mindset with them. Indentured servants, Africans, and Indians were considered commoners by the 1st generations of aristocrats, however the commoners lived, worked, and socialied together. This mingling is evident in DNA tests from that time.
However, the situation changed in the late 1600s when tobacco became a cash crop necessitating the need for lots of cheap labor. The Transatlantic Slave Trade, already thriving in South America and the Caribbean, provided a ready source of slaves.
For the African conquerors and black American slave owners, there was never such thing as 'fellow Africans'. Two different men who come from different ends of Africa wouldn't have seen each other as their own people... hell, in extreme cases, they might not even view each other as human.
New sub!! I’m binge watching your stuff! I love it!! Have a good one!! ❤tennessee
Thanks for subbing!
You misunderstand conservatism. I'm a Black Conservative who is also a Genetic Genealogist. I can trace several family lines back to the 1600s and beyond. I can tell you there are a lot of Blacks who talk a big game but don't lift a finger to correspond or research.
I see you commenting frequently about your work, do many people take you up on your offer to help them trace their lineage?
I blame Ancient Aliens.
14:30 candace never said racism didnt exist and whats wrong with Brandon?
Any historically accurate movies about slavery that would be truthful without denying the horrors of the institution?
I don't believe it was about poverty as much as the ability to defend yourself.
The more technology we use to make things more convenient and in turn our lives easier the weaker and more dependent we become!
Just try to think about unintended consequences of policies you support. You can be left, right, or center. But the most important thing is to imagine that the policies you support are not ideal and that side effects will happen and what will those side effects be.
Lots of ppl think their "solutions" will do exactly what their fantasies imagine and will not have any costs or side effects.
Nothing is free. Everything has trade offs.
The best book that explains slavery is “the legacy of Arab Islam in Africa”
Myth means Lies
What upsets me is that it is assumed that every white person in America is the descendant of a slave owner. Only one half of the whites in this country owned slaves, the southen states, no northern white person owned slaves. In the south only around 3% of whites were wealthy enough to own slaves. So 3% of whites from HALF the population of whites actually owned slaves, a very small amount of the American population. Yet, ALL whites are blamed and reparations wanted. Also there were some black for profit slave owners. Most black slave owners owned family members, but some were buying and selling their own for profit. I saw a black woman on tic tok saying all whites had a family history of owning black slaves and I just shook my head and thought " My poor family who came to this country in the 1800's never did and for all you know your own family may have owned slaves!"Bottom line let's live NOW and move forward striving for the goal of a more perfect union!
The main reason slavery ended is that we found cheaper and easier slaves: fossil fuels. As coal, and later petrol, started to run the machinery, human slaves became too expensive. You didn't see much anti-slavery literature before the Watts steam engine.
God bless guys
God bless you for watching
It wasn't their "own" people. Like a white European from Finland is vastly different from a Spaniard, the different tribes in Africa were different as well.
History is complicated and we are never told the whole story, such as who were the people who ran the slave industry during the trans Atlant slave trade? Who owned the ships and held the auctions? Also not all white people owned slaves back then. It was something like 4% of Christian Europeans (and 40% of other group of from Europe).
In america most slave owners were white.Oh,you had black slave owners too,but,the majority were white.
there is only one race that matters The Human Race
You are so right! We all need Jesus! God made us all. 🙏
The love of money is the root of all evil, as the Bible says. And to slave traders, there was (and still is in some parts of the world) a lot of money to be made by selling people themselves as property.
15:57 Black conservatives aren’t ignoring the needs and trials of other black Americans, they just have different policy ideas about how to improve their lives. For example, black were living better under Trump than Biden. That’s bc of the conservative policies. Also, one of the main tenants of being conservative is a strong belief in God. You may have a little bit of a foggy view of what it means to be a conservative n 2024. You say you try to avoid politics? I understand that, but if you’re gonna make comments and influence others, including yourself, don’t you owe it to yourself or be fully educated on the issues and topics. I’m unsure as to what conservative values or policies you see as negatively impacting blacks people?
Also, what you may see as a “black conservative not caring about black people” could also simply bc bc many black conservatives don’t see themselves as simply “black”. Identity politics is much bigger on the left. In fact, cobbling together a “coalition” of identities has been the Democratic Party playbook since Obama started it. They see it as the best way to win. And many times they are correct, however, putting Americans into buckets divided by race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, etc rarely results in a more cohesive and positive nation. Yes, we are all different, and the beauty of America is that we can have a nation filled with people all so different from one another, but one thing that must be, is that we all gather together under our flag as fellow Americans, and that we do have many mainstream important beliefs that we share. Black conservatives often aren’t obsessed with their “blackness”. Yes, they are black, proud to be so, but it isn’t the first thing they identify with. They may put things like God, country, family, etc before how much melanin their skin contains. On the whole, conservatives (of all races) don’t lay into identity and grievance politics. They push for change and policies that will bring everyone up together. You will be hard up to find any recent conservative policies that are “against black people”. The right (aka Republican Party) didn’t do a “big switch” as leftists have always lied about. We have supported freedom for all God’s children since our party’s creation by Abraham Lincoln. The republicans of the north and south defeated the democrats of south and north in the civil war, and then the republicans fought for black Americans time and time again (ending Democrats Jim Crow laws,fighting and winning for blacks in Dred Scot case, voting nearly unanimously for black’s right to vote, etc). This idea from republicans was based in Christian values. Meaning, the party took to heart the part of the Declaration of Independence saying “all men are created equal…under God”. It’s the same foundation of Christianity nowadays fighting against the incredibly evil and destructive abortion industry. An industry that has always killed far more black babies than white. Something Margaret Sanger (the founder of Planned Parenthood) openly admitted and claimed was the intention of her organization. Democrats started winning black support when they started pushing the welfare state on all of us. Black voters switched to the Democrat party (the party of slavery and jim crow) for economic reasons. Not bc of a sudden racist flip by the republicans. That’s why all the Dixiecrats and former KKK members turned politicians (like Robert Byrd) died Democrat, and whose funeral was attended by Bill and Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden. The democrats have had a chokehold on entertainment, mainstream media, and the universities for decades now, and I must admit, they have done a fantastic job of perpetuating misinfo about their history and straight up lies about the Republican Party. And the Rep Party has done a poor job of fighting back. The years of increasingly worse media bias and lies from Democrats about us is the main reason Trump won. We was fed up and wanted someone that would fight back just as ferociously and tell the media to shove it. LOL. And he did. It just, by lucky chance, turned out that he governed quite conservatively and made excellent policy decisions. That’s why hes increasing his lead against Biden for the upcoming election more and more every day. People have seen what 4 years of Biden look like, and everyone remembers what 4 years of Trump was like in comparison. The democrat media induced insanity trying to scare votes away from Trump, outright lies about things Trump didn’t even say by media and Democrat politicians all the way up to Biden, and the countless attempts to either lock up or bankrupt Trump by using corrupt legal means is all failing. Can’t wait to see what insanity the Left attempts for the October surprise this year. They spent Trump’s entire first term getting busted in lie after lie after lie trying to destroy him. It was 5 years of that “Russian Collusion” bs before it ended with no collusion by Trump, but actual collusion between the Hillary Clinton campaign, the Obama White House, the FBI, and some Russian and ukrnaian spies in their desperate attempts to not only stop Trump from being president , but also willing to lock him up for treason for the rest of his life. All based on a Clinton campaign smear job. They are dirty af. The Dems used race to divide us by fervently defending slavery and creating/defending Jim Crow to ensure they won elections . And they use race (and gender, and sexuality, and religion) to divide us now. Also in hopes to win elections. Problem is, it isn’t working anymore. Hispanics are polling more for trump than Biden right now, and upwards of 30% of black Americans are polling for trump right now ,an unheard of number since decades ago when Dems implemented welfare. Blacks usually vote for Democrats in numbers higher than 95%. Trump winning 30% is crazy. The best voting block Dems have according to recent polls is white suburban women, and even some of them have been peeling off for Trump. Polls are so iffy, so we will see in November. I hope more black Americans leave the democrat party this year. It’s in their best interest, imo. I didn’t mean to ramble on so long, but I felt the need to defend my black conservative brothers. LOL. I wish y’all the best and hope you continue to educate yourselves in history and current policy. God bless.😊
New sub!
Most of this stuff I learned about at 11/12 yrs old,by studying US/Black history on my own.I LOVE history.It's good to find out things on youtube videos,but,the library in your town/city is always open. Read books on different topics,do research for your self.
Very cool!
@@dunsonhouse Thank you.
Appreciate your comment
@@dunsonhouse Thank you,the compliment is appreciated.
Power get's you money as well, that's why a lot of these politicians who don't get paid that much and it's done on purpose, you're suppose to be a Servant of the country, it's public service, so you aren't suppose to get into politics to get rich. Yet you have a bunch of career politicians getting RICH RICH, and they don't get Rich off their pay checks as a public servant. They get rich by using their positions and striking up deals, you know if they are a career politician meaning they had no other job but running for office, yet they are millionaires you know they are Corrupt nothing else about it, they are in that position to strike up deals and sell themselves to big Corporations. They don't see themselves as Public Servants anymore they legit think they are Royalty/Nobles. This is why Career politicians should never be trusted. Require they've had another job before hand and please don't leave them in there for 30-50 years, always keep it shifting get the old horses out, never a good idea to keep a politician in there to long SPECIALLY if you notice their bank account growing from being in Office.
I would be so mad if I had found out a meda like Roots was just a huge lie and thought ot was all true.
15:01 on one hand you say you hate politics but on the other hand you say you rely on Jesus. I ask you which party is it that is removing religion from school can you even talk about Jesus in school, but you can teach kids to vote blue no matter who
❤ Im so glad yall reacted to this one. Hope yall react to some of the old Trump rallies!!!
the title is a bit misleading - that's common knowledge around the world and just "hidden" in some US circles
There were many worse things that could happen to you back in the day than slavery. Most of the times slave owners wanted to keep the slaves healthy so they could work. Dying of hunger, or been forced to fight in war in some other country that you do not care about sounds worse to me.
I hope I can explain what I mean (my English is not so good).
I'm white and until I started watching these reactions, I never realised that you, always thought to the slavery like something that concerned ONLY blacks (ie that slavery was linked to the so-called race).
Thinking that, don't make sense, it means that your school system it never did its job and also (sorry) that some people never opened a book about the human history.
That said anyway (without denying the particular situation of the black American community), I think and hope every black American has realised now, that all the (so-called) races in the world (ALL) have experienced slavery (white, black, brown, purple or blue, anyone among them). 🍺
✊🏽🔥
🤘🤘
Just like drug dealers, they don´t care who they´re selling it to, they just care about making that money
Don’t fall for that youtube trap where they try and convert y’all into thinking like house 🥷. Keep doing yall thing
