  • "If you really want to learn about white history, you have to start with the history of slavery." America associates slavery with Black people, but Michael Harriot explains why slavery is more white history than Black history.

    It seems that your Idea of me, as a descendent of Slavery, is a form of Naturalism; what about the Spiritual and the Biological as different. The Spiritual starts with Language and Historicity: historicity is a concept out of Martin Heidegger's Being and Time.I do love all your teachings.

    How do you know there were Black people in America before 1619? Can you recommend some books on this topic?

    • @conwittyconway6134

      No books but here is some of that info... In 1565, for example, the Spanish brought enslaved Africans to present-day St. Augustine, Fla., the first successful European settlement in what’s now the continental U.S. The Spanish also had a colony in what is SC/Goergia area in 1526 that failed because of death by disease and then finally the enslaved Africans revolted and burned down much of the colony.

    Slavery is the history of the world. Every nation had slaves. every. You talk about america, and american history. All ethnicity had been slaves of someone in there history all! And all had slaves, all of them. So be more specific when you only talk about USA, that is not the only white history or black history, it is just a part of it.

      ​@@rosielewis8947accept that's not true, that's just what you have been taught to believe, that all slaves were black and all whites were free and owned slaves. Many indentured servants were white, taken from other counters and were worked to death, many didn't live to see 5 years. Slavery was everywhere, the difference between the US and other countries at the time was the US was trying to put a stop to slavery.

    The reason white people in America wanted independence from Britain and were and are prone to lunacy is because the white people who colonised the eastern part of America were either extremists and rejects from Britain or chancers, people with aristocratic pretensions, and people without morals. These are your founding fathers. Also, until the late 19th century the vast majority of white migrants were either British or German. When the Italians, Greeks, and east European Jews etc began arriving in the 1890s the white British Americans freaked out and shut the door on immigration of those people in 1924. Also, America did not become a financial superpower until after the first world war (1914-1918, or for the US 1917-1918) For around the first 125 or so years after independence America was a financial backwater. This wasn't helped by the civil war of 1861-1865. You talk of context. I think you need to study American history in a bit more detail. You are an expert on the history of white people's oppression and exploitation of black peoples in America, but you need a bit more context of what was driving American, specifically white Anglo American history.

      Allow me to retort. Not his responsibility to do so. Perhaps you’d like your history “fair and balanced?” I grew up a product of the American school system, bused in during integration. Much of what you speak of is easily accessible. I’m actually glad to see your base of knowledge as many people don’t know what you’re talking about. He is speaking to a more obscure, true history that is completely omitted and denied even at this very second! You should create your own page discussing these topics and I will be happy to go and learn. ✌🏾

Slavery was a criminal enterprise! One we are unwilling to name. It seems as though we believe admitting it would mean we owe…. Hmmm.

      You created the market for slaves by asking for them to do work you were unable or unwilling to do. Supply and demand. Why were "y'all" so damned lazy? If nobody wanted slaves, then there would not have been a demand for them. Let's be really real here.

The "business" was chattal slavery and only white Europeans bought the slaves and used them for labor. They created the market, and the demand was met. Just like fentanyl. If there was no market for it, then it would not be coming here.
