Can you do a video of the Africans who sold the slaves , I know there’s still a lot of modern day slaves over there right now , but it’s still interesting to look back into the past

The French actually abolished slavery following the revolution but reinstated it. The thing about the British is that they abolished slavery not just in Britain. They aggressively policed the seas to end other nations - including the French, Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch - from trading slaves. Perhaps you need to give this some balance as well as the role Africans played in slavery before and after the British.

Genuine question as a black man myself living in the uk, and I don’t think there’s a right answer to this; would you accept a tax increase in order to fund reparations to Caribbean countries? On the one hand it should’ve happened before and shouldn’t have affected us now in this time and we give money to Ukraine etc, on the other hand adding reparations will hike taxes and also, what will these Caribbean countries do with this money? Economic theory of velocity of money says it’ll be back in the pockets of the west within 3 transactions. I know this wasn’t the topic but I’m just curious.

Why would people who’ve never owned slaves, have to give money to people who’ve never been slaves. It makes no sense

It was economical for them to also end slavery and slow down the other empires who was gaining from slavery. So they spew the nonsense about humanitarian reasons.

Your right, 100% the worst thing Britain ever done trying to end slavery, they had nothing to do with it. It’s well documented that Denmark paid to free slaves and sailed the oceans sending slave ships back for decades. Haiti also sailed the seas helping slaves. Just look at there amazing country they have total control of for over 200 years. Amazing stuff. Britain was pathetic trying to stop slavery. They should have just taken a leaf out of Denmark book, and said we are not doing this anymore. Britain should have done just that, walked away from this horrendous trade. Wonder what the world would look like now if Britain done what Denmark done 🤔

It's a disguising mindset, on which it is still in the corridors of power, the mindset is not dead, dehumanising the Body & Soul, a plague on the world's consciousness...

I think you forgot to mention that slavery was making America rich and their own use of slaves in Britain was not as high as Americas. Pretending to take the moral high ground they tried to kill two birds with one stone. In reality it was to stop Americas rise. As you point out the British were still trading in slaves using indentured servants.

My ancestors did nothing original or unique, that hadn't been practiced by many many others for thousands of years previously! The only thing they did different was do it on a larger scale. Prove me wrong. I'm not agreeing with anything they did, but it's facts!

all the lives lost in the numerous rebellions of enslaved people are who truly ended it because they refused to be enslaved!

We must challenge the claim that they abolished slavery. They may have ended the transatlantic slave trade while extending their control into African territories, where they enslaved people locally and imposed forced labor. In that sense, saying they abolished slavery can obscure the continued exploitation that followed the end of the slave trade. This was colonization—and, in many ways, slavery 2.0.

Toni Blair apologised for Britains role in the transatlantic slave trade in 2007. And reperations are paid for illegal acts not moral reasons.Haiti did not end slavery they became an independent territory. And abolish it in its territory. Chattel slavery in Danish colonial territories was not legally abolished until July 3, 1848, following a massive slave revolt and general strike on the island of Saint Croix. Arguments that the slave trade was not profitable. That argument is known as the "Williams Thesis," which most modern economic historians largely reject in favour of the "Econocide" consensus. While the theory that slavery collapsed due to unprofitability was influential in the mid-20th century, extensive trade data shows Britain's slave economy was still thriving when Parliament abolished it—meaning abolition was driven by moral, political, and resistance pressures at a deliberate economic cost. And it forced others to do the same. Thus ending the transatlantic slavery which is the claim not just abolishing it in its own territory.
