TO THE UNEDUCATED trying to justify slavery: Transatlantic slavery was fundamentally DIFFERENT from earlier forms of slavery around the world. It was race-based and hereditary, designed to permanently dehumanize millions of Africans and erase entire cultures. Unlike many earlier slave systems (where enslaved people could sometimes earn freedom, integrate into society, or their enslavement wasn’t necessarily lifelong or hereditary) this system legally stripped enslaved Africans and their descendants of ALL RIGHTS, FOR LIFE and GENERATIONS to come. This was codified by laws such as the Virginia Slave Codes (late 1600s) that defined enslaved people as property, not humans, and made slavery inheritable through the mother’s line. It was directly tied to European colonialism and the rise of global capitalism, fueling immense wealth through the forced labor of millions on plantations growing cash crops like sugar, cotton, and tobacco. Slavery in many ancient societies (like Rome or Africa itself) often involved prisoners of war or debtors and didn’t always center on race or permanent bondage. Transatlantic slavery was unique in its scale, its racial ideology, and its economic role in building modern global wealth structures. Ignoring these facts distorts the true scale, brutality, and impact of this history. Understanding these differences is crucial to confronting the ongoing realities of systemic racism and inequality today.

the moors never came from "Africa" Alkabuland. all invaders came From the Americas(black skin negroid indians) including the moors all came from the Americas invaded Europe and Alkabuland and unalive billions on these 2 continents(Alkabuland Asia/europe). Tribes in Alkabuland Like yoruba igbos benin edo akans ashanti mandinka fulanis wolof(90% of west Alkabuland) Somalis Ethiopians tutsis dinka nuer Luo kikuyu maasai berbers khoi zulu nshona lemba Luba Asiatic beti bulu fang bassa Duala bamileke ETC all came from the Americas. all these groups are not aboriginal in "Africa" l. their homeland and inheritance is the Americas. slavery never happen the way you were told. real slavery was on the Bantu People by these groups in Africa not out of Africa or slave ships. all those slave castles are all structures that were set up to cover-up this conspiracy and destiny swapping of the Aboriginal Bantu People in Alkabuland.

insane man. these people died without hope. so often we think about the lost recent iterations of slavery, that being the start of the civil war. MAYBE, in those bleak days slaves could see the light at the end of the tunnel. but this is just straight up horrificly dark. there was literally no hope of salvation for these people.

What? We absolutely do know who they were. They had names. There are hundreds of documents in Virginia, London, and Spain that document their lives. They also have thousands of Descendants in the U.S.

This was in the Virginia colony governed by the British in 1619. The Spanish had already brought Africans to what is now the Gullah-Geechee Corridor (Carolinas and Georgia) circa 1526. They revolted and fled down the coast into (now) North Florida establishing our early Maroon communities.
