Zen Mom, I blocked her after the second similar reply! I fully gave my reasons there! You can argue if I am a coward or not! When you completely ignore my post and devise your own accusatory tangents, that is not a comment but an attack. Such disrespect, I don't care for. Thank you!

David Duke, is that YOU?
You sound a lot like the "scholarly" David Duke. He's written some books, too. But better known for..
In 1974, David Duke founded the Louisiana-based Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, a Ku Klux Klan group, shortly after graduating from LSU. He first received broad public attention during this time, as he successfully marketed himself in the mid-1970s as a new brand of Klansman — well-groomed, engaged, and professional.
I find it frightening and disturbing how someone can espouse hateful propaganda under the guise of scholarly research. History is open to interpretation. Your source, White, quoted Sexton in Newport without George Washington's reply, which in turn read, the Government of the United States...gives to bigotry no sanction, to persecution no assistance...May the children of the Stock of Abraham, who dwell in this land, continue to merit and enjoy the good will of the other Inhabitants; while every one shall sit in safety under his own vine and figtree, and there shall be none to make him afraid.
People like you - websites like yours - make me afraid. Very afraid.

Re: Re: Re: Soul_Builder101
I would, except that time is limited now. If there are good books you recommend, I could pursue reading those when I get the space. I am planning to help out other people as soon as I have the money! Thanks!

Re: well that was certainly a controversial read.
Thanks Kabu! My bulb blew and I am typing in the dark!lol The guy did some good research. But he went beyond, into things not validated by the research..... the holocaust and stuff! He is a scholar though, judging from the way he presented his findings! How can ship logs and manifests lie?

When I read your comment, I had to check to make sure it was there. I did not remember reading it. It was that that must have been the source of anti-semitic comments. Thanks for pointing it out. In future, I may have to leave out articles with such statements. When I read them, I just ignore them. I can't edit out from someone's articles! I discussed this point with Henry Makow once. My conclusion was that even 1 death was too much. Thanks!

Interesting little anti-sem going on here. Actually, the first written record of black slaves to America was in 1609 at the new Jamestown settlement.

Thanks! I re-read the article and he did say those things. I looked for a contact address for Mr White but I could not find one. Perhaps you can relay your concerns to the owner of the site by way of comment on the article. In addition, he did not back up these statements. If you feel strongly about these statements, I suggest you let the website know how you feel. I read a lot and when writers ramble, I just go on to the next idea. Other readers seemed not to have bothered with these statements, opting to comment on the core topic! A perfect article is really hard to find!

What an overwhelming read is this article. I have read it before, and these facts of inhumanity in the slave trade are familiar to me and have influenced my sadness and sympathies to any at all in today's world who come from that history. The facts given of the history of the slave trade, though, does not lessen the facts of the suffering of the Jewish people during WWII, and the extermination of six million Jews by Hitler and his cohorts. The statement in this article concerning The Holocaust,
"...This is the greatest LIE ever perpetrated upon the people of the world..." and the author's declaration, "those of us who intend to free America of these sons of the devil-the Jews....." takes away much of the importance given to the things we all should know about man's inhumanity to the African people.

Re: Dave ~.~
Thanks SS! A very informative comment there! I specialized in West Indian history, and I saw slavery from that angle. This article gave me additional angles. Slavery is accepted and taught in schools in the Caribbean. I did not know that the topic is taboo here. America was included as part of the triangular trade.... USA, the Caribbean and Africa. I'm surprised the writer left that out. Though there were direct USA to Africa and back journeys, most of them sold North American products to the caribbean, and Caribbean products to North America. There were no empty runs.

Re: This is good information
Thanks Kolekshuns! Accepting the past as fact is beyond some people. Politics is a nasty game. Where I come from, slavery is accepted. I come from an Indian family, that was brought to work the fields. These indentureds were often kidnapped. Living conditions was just like slavery. Now, have things really changed?

Re: Dave, I also share this interest in history; it was my favourite subjec
Thanks Mariaki! My research has come across all kinds of evil things. People are kidnapped and there organs are harvested for sale. Girls are kidnapped and sold into the slave trade or as hookers, children are kidnapped or sold into slavery. There are happenings that would give nightmares, if read. The mainstream media ignore it all.

It is vile alright. So much suffering , and for what! They will get their due. They must live in such fear of death, because they cannot talk their way out then! I am just biding my time here. It is warmer and I will be spending little time indoors. My reading has dropped. Gotta do some of that later!

Thanks! I think that ordinary people know what life is and pursue live and let live. Others have notions of greatness and power and they keep messing up creation, to enforce their agendas. Nothing really happens by accident. The movers and shakers have no respect for life or for God. What a revelation it must be when they are dying!

Thanks Chris! History in school is boring. When you get to University level and begin doing research, then you realize that textbooks are just the opinions of others. Mr White did some good homework. Apparently he was rebutting some Rabbi's version of the past. I think he presented a good case!

Re: that was the best article ive read in awhile
Thanks QG7! The wealth of the world is being concentrated in the same hands. With us in recession, they have it all. Slavery was really bad for Africans. There is more though. Sir Walter Rodney (I believe) wrote a book called HOW EUROPE UNDERDEVELOPED AFRICA. No wonder, Africa today is so messed up. Malnutrition, disease and civil war is destroying it completely!

Dave ~.~
Interesting and informative article -- if seen as viable and authentic research, with true recorded accounts, it ties together a lot of loose ends. Slavery, however, regardless of how it started, was the economic force that gave America its riches. The full story has never been taught by textbooks because it was one of America's "skeletons in the closet" and would have shown the world the true workings of its economic and political structures; and the land that preached freedom and justice for all, was one of the main perpetrators of "man's inhumanity to man." Note: Slavery in America can never be "just part of its history" because its ramifications are far-reaching, even to this day -- and all "contributions" to the building of America were not "voluntary." Thank you for sharing. Peace, blessings and understanding.

This is good information
Sure, the slaves went through humiliation, mistreatment, and things I can't put
into words, and now some people don't want to talk about it. But it is part of
the history of America. Just imagine all the things America is enjoying now, because
of the contributions to this country of our forefathers. We need to recognize that
Every culture in this country has contributed to it in some way and strive to treat
each other accordingly. Great article. Thanks for sharing.

Dave, I also share this interest in history; it was my favourite subject at
school and still is; I read this background with great interest and must admit found some of it surprising; the treatment of slaves has always disgusted me even though I had a somewhat morbid interest in all things related to slavery; even now after all these years I still feel that it goes on in various ways; this is what I would call the devil at work! Thank you for a very educational post

its funny how once you start investigating this stuff it all seems to add up...the masons involved and saw the mention of rothschild in there the whole illuminati thing becomes ever more evident the more and more i research and read things such as this and it is a shame that the whole slave trade always seems to b taboo to talk about or played off as jus something that happened and its almost unreal to fathom only 11 million of 110 million future slaves surviving and the conditons in which they were forced into is sickening and makes you wonder how any human could ever treat another like that...if there was only one rule people should live by its definitely the golden rule in my opinion
