but nobody wants to talk about that
he isn't wrong but it comes down to poor policy on why countries are poor
also black immigrants aren't the same as decendants of slaves
also barock obama wasn't "up there"
another thing is that child birth is something you chose, not forced (except rape but that's rare as hell)
cuz history is being rewritten
sadly
I think comparing peoples suffering as an “I had it worse” type thing is not productive
^
Because in that way someone will always have it worse
So to say black people had it the worst does not promote anything but a closed off conversation
remember the saying "there's always someone worse than you" you definetly not one of them
Race is your skin tone
also I don't think blacks were passed around in asia and south america
If people made up sciences to confirm that they’re better just because they have a different skin tone, then they’re big time loser.
also what is he gonna say when an asian says that? he can't say asians don't understand cause of the mongol or japanese (don't say "because they were the same race" argument)
Asians are either a minority or whites
oh people who use skin color to prove suporiority is just fragile
Depending on how successful they are
also there's also slaves from war or kidnapping. granted you chose to be in the army and had a chance of being a slave it wasn't based off poverty
looking for a quote from here, but this was super helpful
well worth a listen
he isn't wrong about africa being rich in resources but it's the leaders who chose to be corrupt not white people
When we speak about Africa, I actually agree with the slavery argument
like look at the leader of zimbawae in 2008. he wanted to prove he can survive without white people and guess what happened? they didn't know how to opperate and caused inflation
the number of whites in africa who were enslaved by the barberry pirates, exceeded the number of africans enslaved in the united states and in the american colonies before that
Nobody taught them.
that struck me
nobody mentions it
I understand that the argument is about american history but it doesn't mean we shouldn't talk about other races
also a book talked about those people "not being picky with race unlike white people" lmao
one cannot talk about american history without talking about other countries
after all we were the melting pot
and we are involved almost everywhere, not in isolation
so is he saying old people are brainwashed to be racist?
most old people lived to see martin luther king jr and saw the civil rights movement
and if they didn't witniss them, blacks and whites had equal rights
they did know better
that's why the movements became so groundbreaking
so they chose to be racist
