It's funny how white Americans have convinced us that Africans enslaved, bought, and sold our own people as if whites have no hand in slavery.

If African's were the masterminds behind slavery where's the wealth?

What did Africans have to gain by enslaving their own people?

The major group's who owned slaves where the French mixtures (Creole's) of Haiti and South.

They may have moved and spread out over the Southern states but the same few families had the wealth and ownership.

They were even so sick that the intermarried and inbred with each other to keep the money in the family.

These familes exist to this very day but most are so white you wouldn't consider them to be black nor would they claim any African heritage.

This is why some Black folk's like to claim Creole or French heritage because they owned slaves.

No regular black folk's had any money to buy slaves, most were slaves their damn selves so how c

It's funny how white Americans have convinced us that Africans enslaved, bought, and sold our own people as if whites have no hand in slavery. ---> Lots of folks in on the slave trade Africans, Europeans and Americans nothing contrived there

If African's were the masterminds behind slavery where's the wealth? --> They spent it. Duh?

What did Africans have to gain by enslaving their own people? --> They didn't enslave their own people they enslaved folks from other tribes/groups. THey benefited by getting Money, guns, technology and other goods

The major group's who owned slaves where the French mixtures (Creole's) of Haiti and South. --> I don't know a lot of blacks with french names

They may have moved and spread out over the Southern states but the same few families had the wealth and ownership. --> Huh?

They were even so sick that the intermarried and inbred with each other to keep the money in the family. --> THat is pretty sick

These familes exist to this very day but most are so white you wouldn't consider them to be black nor would they claim any African heritage. --->

This is why some Black folk's like to claim Creole or French heritage because they owned slaves. --> I don't know many who do

No regular black folk's had any money to buy slaves, most were slaves their damn selves so how could they save up money to buy slaves? --> Yes they did regular old non-mixed blacks owned slaves as well

You need to go do some research and then come back

Doesn't matter if African tribes, owned Slaves, because they didn't own a US Constitution claiming for Equality in all Mankind. Lightskinned Blacks in Louisiana, had one.

Lightskinned-Blacks in Louisiana, weren't in the jungles of Africa, so it's beyond desperate for you and gv and Senor to go chasing that whim.

I think it's only fair that you all link up up proof that darkies in Africa, or here with the mulatto slave-owners, defied some societal laws...

Old news.

I didn't click on the link but...

There is a difference between being a light skin black person and being a mixed race person.

A mixed race person is used to cause division amongst the original race of people.

Divide and conquer.

Creating division is the only way they can conquer any group of people.

The original race and mixed race will be too busy fighting each other that they won't notice the foreign race of people are taking over.

So regular light skin black folk's didn't own slaves.

Elite mixed raced sub-groups who inheirted wealth owned slaves.

These group's are so white you wouldn't consider them to black or light skin anything.

White's bred black folk's like horses.

Some were bred to do hard manuel labor (NFL)

Some to work in the house (Clerance Thomas)

And a small group were bred to look as close to white as possible (Soledad O'Brian) to stand in the pla

c/s.. light skin blacks have two black parents and mixed people have one or two highly mixed parents... Light skin blacks see things from the black perspective because thats what we are, black.

Yes, it's true. There were lightskinned-Blacks All throughout the 1600's - 1800's indeed. Its been verified that Large numbers of free lightskinned-Blacks hated themselves, so much, and loved their White Heritage so much to whereas they owned black slaves in numbers disproportionate to their representation in society. 

According to the federal census of 1830, free blacks owned more than 10,000 slaves in Louisiana, Maryland, South Carolina, and Virginia.  The majority of black slave-owners lived in Louisiana and planted sugar cane.



At least now, you all can cease wondering why gv JUSTIN and other lightskinned-racists hate me, so much.

Well a picture is worth a thousand words and I've never seen a picture of light-skinned Blacks celebrating the lynching of a Black man, you know the pictures with them (Whites) and their children standing around a hanging or burning Black person(s) with smiles, laughing & celebrating. Sure some Blacks hate Blackness, but until I see pictures of Blacks acting the way that Whites acted I will not believe that light-skinned Blacks treated Blacks as harshly as Whites did.
