Unfortunately there are many schools that don't or refuse to teach slavery properly. It's sad, only in recent decades are history book becoming honest about it.

Logan Mannke They showed my fourth grade Virginia history text book.

You'd be surprised. In many schools, especially here in the U.S., slavery is downplayed and made to look as though Africans actually were not mistreated THAT badly and that some of them even loved being "helpers" and always pleasing their white owners. But you have to think of who was writing these books. They definitely added their own feelings and opinions within the words and it SHOWS. That's why I love that people are able to look up these things and are being taught to challenge history. Everything we were taught was NOT factual. Some of it just made certain people feel better about things.

A lot had to do with The Daughters of the Confederacy pushing a false narrative as to what was taught in Virginia schools

I am from this area an the schools did down play it. Theres a school in halifax va that black kids went to. I tried buying it then a limb from the massive oak next to the house dropped a limb down threw the roof.

Its funny you think much has changed. Reparations now

Valeria Vagapova You know where those eyes came from right?

That’s sad but this is about black Americans history and slavery. Please go under a channel that correlates with your topic and ask. Let’s not take away anything from the people who died here.

@@mamichula1177 so funny you say that when we do that everywhere. & yes I'm black, right is right & we'll be under ANY topic doing this.

Michael Zaccarillo nobody said right wasn’t right. It’s unfortunate that’s happening but this particular video has absolutely nothing to do with his or her topic. There are a lot of issues people have but go post those issues on a video that correlates, don’t be disrespectful by posting irrelevant comments. YOU might do that everywhere but most people with manners don’t do that.

Stop trying to dictate how we process and heal from your people's hateful and brutal ways.

@@sophiyahsunflower7259 Fuck that person. This would never be said to a Holocaust survivor or a 9/11 survivor. Only Black American atrocities are supposed to be forgotten when nothing has been done to right those wrongs and brutalizations.

@@sophiyahsunflower7259 my people are you kidding me you know they are trying to divide us so they can conquer you all are still slaves to the Democratic Party they laugh at you all behind you back so sad

@@MaskedMenace94 you will never hear a holocaust survivor crying about what they went threw they have rose above ... hold your own accountable

It’s not about looking back or looking forward, it’s about acknowledging your roots and reflecting on how you ended up in a land that you weren’t invited to. This isn’t political, it’s literally just being human. Some African Americans can’t trace further than their great grand parents and can’t tell where they truly are from. No matter what success you achieve or reconciliation you come to terms with, there’s always an existential part of African Americans that itches to wanna know more and if you can’t relate to it, just kindly step aside and listen or turn a blind eye and keep moving. You trying to make it political isn’t cool.

False. Slaves still exist
