This documentary makes me fume so much.

!!!! It makes me livid. And it's sad to think that similar things are happening so many places. I feel like some of us live in such bubbles when it comes to stuff like this. Ugh. Sad

I never wanted to reconcile with you. And what's tired is you and your identity crisis. Done with ancestry! Not quite. Now here you are repping Haiti. Real Haitians would laugh at your ass tbh.

Honestly with the narratives in our community, you would assume we  were living happily ever after, all united, all equal, until someone came and ruined our mess.  :plzstop: Kidnapped us! :cheerup:


Thats what happened sis
Slavery did exist before the Arab slave trade and the Atlantic slave trade but it wasn't chattel slavery, it was similar to indentured servitude where they werent seen as property, enslaved for life,
these kind of slaves had were given rights.
For example if two rival cities went into battle, the prisoners of
of war would become slaves, debt slaves, enslaved war prisoners and enslaven criminals were all different kinds of enslavement, but different from the slave trade
I see, so it was a switcharoo type of mess.

QuoteSlavery existed in Africa, but it was not the same type of slavery that the Europeans introduced. The European form was called chattel slavery. A chattel slave is a piece of property, with no rights. Slavery within Africa was different. A slave might be enslaved in order to pay off a debt or pay for a crime. Slaves in Africa lost the protection of their family and their place in society through enslavement. But eventually they or their children might become part of their master?s family and become free. This was unlike chattel slavery, in which enslaved Africans were slaves for life, as were their children and grandchildren.

Yh servitude/slavery always existed, but the Europeans monopolised the game and turned it into empire, crippling Africa

This is one of my fav quotes
Kinda sums all my thoughts into one
Quote"the morally monstrous destruction of human possibility involved redefining African humanity to the world, poisoning past, present and future relations with others who only know us through this stereotyping and thus damaging the truly human relations among people of today". He cites that it constituted the destruction of culture, language, religion and human possibility.
