      No because what holds Africa back is primarily low IQ, I don't see how the absence of the slave trade would have increased the average IQ of Black Africans in any way.

    Hamites that captured Israelites treated them terrible as slaves. He’s talking about Israelites that hired themselves out as servants to pay a bill they owed among their race not to Hamites. Hamites in Africa will have to come clean about what they did to black Americans who are Israelites. Caucasians proudly confess to what they did to our ancestors and to us. They made sure to document their deeds as well. They’re not trying to lie about their part in slavery. Hamites are now asking us to come back to Africa and denying their ancestors role in the Slave Trade. Their economy was run on the sale of Israelites. They strenuously rejected to Britain ending slavery. They economy suffered and has been suffering ever since. They sold the people that could have prospered their economy. The ones that made America the most powerful country in the world and prospered every country they were enslaved in.

      No it shows the savagery that your people inflicted upon my people. I love that the kids are there because they will have NO delusions about what you beings are.

      This is a very offensive and ignorant comment. It is deliberately kept in this condition! Read and educate yourself before judging! And from your profile picture, how does the slave trade and Elmina Castle affect you? 🙄🙄🙄🤐

      @@maamee6251 My Great, Great, Great Grandmother arrived from Africa in what was then British Guiana on Dec 4, 1833. She was about 12 years old when the slave ship reached Guiana and slavery had been officially abolished about 4 months prior to her arrival in the British slave colony. She was kept as a house girl and by the time she was 25 had borne 6 kids for her plantation owner. Her kids were mulatto and married other non-whites until the generation no longer looked black. "That is how the slave trade and Elmina castle affects me"

    The name is pronounced: Don diego de "athambuha" not literally "azambuja" like its written. Why don't the tourists authorities train their guides to pronounce foreign names correctly?
