@ovienzowoba: A Professor Said Slavery Wasn't Racial. I Pulled Up the Receipts: Britain Didn't End Slavery Out of Guilt. Here's the Real Reason. An Oxford professor went on camera and said the transatlantic slave trade "isn't really about race." He blamed Africans, name-dropped the Romans, and called reparations a distortion. So I stopped the video and checked every single date. Turns out the Romans were gone a thousand years before the first slave ship reached the Guinea coast. Turns out Britain built this trade for 250 years, then only started dismantling it once it stopped making them money. Turns out the enslaved got nothing when it ended; the slaveholders got paid, and Britain didn't finish paying off that loan until 2015. This isn't about "hating Britain." It's about who gets to write the history, and who gets left out of it. Watch till the end. Tell me where I'm wrong. #TransatlanticSlaveTrade #NigelBiggar #BlackHistory #Afrocentric #ColonialHistory #BritishEmpire #SlaveTrade #Reparations #AfricanHistory #DecolonizeHistory #HistoryLesson #BlackTwitter #Pan-Africanism #TAST #Abolition #UnlearnHistory
One thing I wish you spent a little more time on is the claim the young man made. Is it true that in 1854, Britain fought in Lagos for the abolishment of slavery?? and the date is important because in your explanation, you gave a date or timeline when BRITISH abolished slave trade. And what made Britain effort towards abolishment of slavery is that the put in money and effort and they had a Christian bible teachings as principle. btw, this bible principle i speak of is NOT new; because at the time when the Pope issued decree such as Dum Diversas, Romanus Pontifex, we also had group like as the school of Salamanca (a theology group) that were totally against what they found out of the Papal bull. I am raising this because whilst I acknowledge and credit you for the intellectual effort put into putting this video teachings together, I must also hold on accountable for what I'm guessing is a Sleight of Hands. In your narration of white people making babies by their enslaved women, you called them Christians...therefore, we must also acknowledge what seem like Christian effort - including the mention of Denmark.

this is what I asked Bishop Ona
I said to him, when they abolished it, what happened, did they take over?
if yes, then they are jokers 😂
likely, during the African system, there was no hard labor and humiliation+ forcing our women, the opposite of what the Europeans or the British did?

Many of our forefathers didn’t document their stories. Today, we only know what others chose to tell us about them. This is why many people grow up hating or judging their ancestors based on incomplete stories.

It’s all still the same system of government and control. And that is why Nigeria still runs. Same in America society among white and black.

“White Christians” 😁! Baba, in all, you never debunked the story the young Man narrated other than painting it as if slavery was an agenda of Christianity!
