2019-07-05 02:56:58 UTC  

Blak

2019-07-05 02:57:01 UTC  

Australia

2019-07-05 02:57:09 UTC  

And cool which tribe bro, I'm wiradjuri

2019-07-05 02:57:21 UTC  

For blacks

2019-07-05 02:57:45 UTC  

I mean in Africa the slave trade gave chieftain's and kings profit

2019-07-05 02:57:52 UTC  

They raided and sold prisoners

2019-07-05 02:57:55 UTC  

Better, worse, it's all subjective

2019-07-05 02:58:07 UTC  

The slaves obvs didn't like it

2019-07-05 02:58:19 UTC  

So depended if you care about a slave or a chieftain

2019-07-05 02:58:19 UTC  

No, it isn't subjective

2019-07-05 02:58:52 UTC  

Do you think that if These Kingdoms knew the fates of the slaves that they sold, do you think they would have stopped or reduced the slave trade?

2019-07-05 02:59:13 UTC  

It very much is as it's left up to your own personal feelings and interpretations of what happened vs what could have happened

2019-07-05 02:59:22 UTC  

Im fairy sure they did know

2019-07-05 02:59:24 UTC  

Odds are it would have been an equally as shitty reality

2019-07-05 02:59:36 UTC  

And the slaves were captives from war or criminals

2019-07-05 02:59:37 UTC  

But that's up to the individual to speculate

2019-07-05 02:59:45 UTC  

So I don't think the African slavers cared

2019-07-05 03:00:02 UTC  

It's speculative, not subjective

2019-07-05 03:00:17 UTC  

I’ve actually heard black people claim that blacks should be grateful for being educated, Americanized, bla bla

I think this is pretty pathetic tbh

2019-07-05 03:00:30 UTC  

Yeah lol

2019-07-05 03:00:33 UTC  

Yeah it is

2019-07-05 03:00:55 UTC  

People underestimate the success and modernity of African kingdom's

2019-07-05 03:00:58 UTC  

It is subjective

2019-07-05 03:01:02 UTC  

Europeans destroyed Africa

2019-07-05 03:01:23 UTC  

Im ayapathu

2019-07-05 03:01:27 UTC  

You can not objectively claim something is good or bad

2019-07-05 03:01:28 UTC  

Año

2019-07-05 03:01:30 UTC  

Most African Americans come from west Africa
and west Africa was the most urbanized part of Africa

2019-07-05 03:01:54 UTC  

I don't know who the ayapathu are, which state?

2019-07-05 03:02:18 UTC  

Nobody should be justifying the enslavement of their own race/ethnicity that’s stupid

2019-07-05 03:02:57 UTC  

They enslaved other tribes or people's tho

2019-07-05 03:03:05 UTC  

Africa wasn't homogenous

2019-07-05 03:03:23 UTC  

tfw people say “why did Africans enslave their own kind”
That’s like saying “Why did Europeans enslave their own kind”

2019-07-05 03:03:29 UTC  

enslavement transcends race

2019-07-05 03:03:36 UTC  

It's about the defeater and the defeated

2019-07-05 03:03:52 UTC  

I mean more generically the African Americans who justify their ancestors being slaves

2019-07-05 03:04:13 UTC  

Or downplay it, I should say

2019-07-05 03:04:43 UTC  

Odds are if Europeans left Africa alone they would've still enslaved each other or been enslaved by some other hypothetical people
