In an Agrarian society, no one is forced. Its a way of life for both slave and free men to continue to work in the life in order to exist. Slaves were expensive and treated well by their owners, they were an investment and needed to be healthy. Hollywood only focuses on the horrors of slavery, the ones who were abused, refused to work, and were punished. Much like today, if you don't work, you don't reap anything in life. Look at the Welfare State of Black folks in Detroit... The Youth are Free but live in Gangs, killing each other every day, more than the KKK ever did. Slavery is a State of Mind today in the USA.

That’s not the word of a god of the universe. How simple minded a God that wrote that would be. “They wrote it to further their causes”. Why would the same entity that created black holes and magnetars write a book for men?

@@trevorrichard4710 If you look into it literally, just in a mathematical way, Discounting all of the 65,000 significant correlations- It is so hyperlinked, Elon Musk could not have written that with 1000 just as smart as him! Many things from the Old Testament were prophecies that came true in the New Testament. These prophecies we are aware of even if you don't believe in God. They are part of history whether you believe in God or not. Okay, for 8 of them to be true the odds are if somebody covered the entire State of Texas with Half dollar coins and somebody blindly happened to pick up the 1st one that was put down. At 18, it's as if the whole Earth is covered in half dollars including including the ocean's 2' high of half dollars and someone blindly picks the 1st one that was placed. There are 18 pages of this on the top of page one you hit 30 prophecies and just 30 of them coming true : the odds are so small, it would be as if someone took electrons and compounded them so densely, they are as hard as a baseball and Filled the Galaxy 6 billion light years in every direction with those electrons and had somebody blindly pick the 1st one. Mathematicians actually have proved The Bible to be impossible to have been written by a human or humans. Also, that's ONLY THE 3rd EXAMPLE! there are 17 pages- each with 10 more examples so could you imagine?!? I didn't even bother going to the rest of the pages. My father had passed away and he was an electrical engineer. SO, he ended up just one class shy of having a doctorate in Math. His mother Became a Christian and my father did not want his mother believing "in such foolish things". So, he went to go disprove her and accidentally proved it to himself with math. I didn't realize it was such basic math otherwise, I would have led with mathematics my whole life when trying to share what is the truth with people. Maybe just look into the mathematics of it or the people that translated and put it together properly. The majority of those people weren't even people of faith. They were up to the challenge & just wanted it to be done as perfectly as possible. Many of them were mathematicians and basically all of the mathematicians ended up Christians afterwards or during the process of translating the Bible to the King James version.

​@@thomassenbartYou have *no way* of knowing that!

Slavery was and still is a crime against humanity. I believe that it is the perpetrators/the enslavers/the ones committing these crimes who have so debased their hearts and minds that they are the ones that have darkened what is left of their souls. The ones enslaved are the victims who have committed no crime. As much as they have suffered, their souls/hearts/minds are still pure. I believe in ultimate eternal justice.

@@ellebelle8515 Me too.

⁠@@ellebelle8515 the current culture in America and our long history is evidence of the damage and corruption sown by our, still generally unexamined, history of enslavement. Both enslaved and enslaver suffered soul wounds. And there are many us today carrying intergenerational scars from unhealed wounds. The cognitive dissonance of “land of the free, home of justice and equality” is being disrupted by people who no longer willing adhere to the lies. If we are ever to live in a just, inclusive, and peaceful society our festering wounds must be cleaned and allowed to heal. I’m don’t want American exceptionalism or any form of perfectionism, those concepts are lies. I want to live closer to the country promised to us in the one proposed in our Constitution.

It still sickening and it still can turn into inter generational trauma that trauma has affected a family has been passed on from generation to another generation. It has been called to affect a generation which the average is 20-25 years.

I strongly suggest that you do dna such as AncestryDNA as your concerns will be proven as fact. I am happy that I did, as I am a product of mixed ancestry.

I'm sure you can eventually uncover some of those mysteries! I have evidence of what you speak of from both ends. I've read about a couple ancestors buying slaves and leaving slaves in wills to children along with pots and pans and livestock, and about ancestors buying their own children back as free blacks and of slaves being left inheritances from their slave master-fathers. I can't imagine what those times were like. What's interesting is that your families kept in touch. I agree with the above poster. Do some Ancestry testing and digging. There is a ton of information to find. I'm going from one line to the next, and there are so many stories. I found that I am 54% African and 42% European. The rest other things. Anyway, I've also discovered other distant relatives hunting for clues even have photographs from the late 1800s and such. Interesting to see.

I'm from Virginia too, and believe me there is nothing "interesting" about knowing that my ancestors were stolen, killed, raped, and tortured by possibly your ancestors. You people have a weird way of looking at slavery.

Thomas Jefferson allowed two or three people to escape without pursuit, and recommended informal freedom for two others. In total, of the more than six hundred people Jefferson enslaved, he freed only ten people - all members of the same family. In 1779, as a practical solution, Jefferson supported gradual emancipation, training, and colonization of African-American slaves rather than immediate manumission, believing that releasing unprepared persons with no place to go and no means to support themselves would only bring them misfortune.

Do you need a safe space to recover from the trauma of hearing about 200 year old events?

Ditto+++++

It was the slaves who had the expertise and talent to create and maintain these estates. Shameful that the "owners" assumed credit when they put none of their own sweat and blood into the work. I can't understand the concept of one person thinking they can own another. It makes no sense on any human level...

Too true, sadly.

It is interesting how the narrative keeps drilling on the mid to late 1800s but there is rarely ever any mention about the Free People of Color from the 1600s and 1700s that came to Virginia and Maryland so all Blacks were not slaves as this story suggests, there were white slaves as well as the Natives (Negros) were enslaved and passed off as the Africans. We need to start telling the truth in order to move forward.

@@lc6636 That's why they call it "his story". None of us were there.

I have visited many old plantations in the Old South. Many have museums. Come to find out many slave owners could not bring themselves to punish, often whip unruly field hands. There was too much affection between them. There were people who advertised themselves as professional slave whippers. They'd travel a circut and approach a plantation owner offering to whip one or more of his slaves who had misbehaved. I've seen the receipts in museums. "Twenty-five lashes well laid on".

I guess it has dawned on you that life isn't perfect, and the US isn't perfect and never will be even in spite of our best efforts. However, starting with immigrants--conditions in the US are probably better than in the countries from which they are coming, and many likely don't have skills marketable in the US or sufficient command of English, so they end up having to start on the bottom. In most other countries, an immigrant has to prove the ability to contribute to that society, a large part being the financial ability to support oneself, but in the US this isn't generally the case, at least not for the masses 'crashing' the southern border. The freedom to engage in the 'pursuit of happiness' is a traditional American value, but there is no guarantee one will find it or that the government is obligated to step in to provide it. (By the way, the slaves described in this video had little or no means to pursue happiness, and weren't in their current situation by choice, so a comparison of the modern US to that is, at best, insensitive.) In humid climates, mold can be a problem. In the house in which I'm living, mold developed on some of the furniture in the rec. room during the summer. A can of Lysol and a vacuum cleaner did a lot more to solve it than wringing my hands and complaining. (By the way, have YOU volunteered to help remediate this problem in any schools or government buildings?) To what in particular are you referring when you suggest that the US disregards the humanity of females? I'll assume you haven't spent much time in a divorce court. I'll agree that many areas have serious problems in terms of homelessness, and the solutions aren't easy. The cost of healthcare is, of course, also a serious problem in the US. There are many laws designed to aid and protect disabled people, but some fall [no pun intended] outside the system. Unless you listen solely to the propagandists, you will realize more in this country has been done to help black people than in probably any other country--but having said that, the fact that some 72% of black children are born to unwed mothers has serious consequences that can't be solved simply by "programs". I take it either you are unsuccessful in life and bitter, or trying to be a "social justice worker" because it happens to be fashionable these days. Are you personally doing anything to solve any of these problems, or simply complaining to salve your conscience?

I maintain a simple solution to poverty..and that is to not birth any child till you can and have put a roof over their head. I had to make my own way, to earn my own keep. I soon learned that birthing a child early on impoverished us. Seeing others without a child , I could see them rise out of poverty. They walked to work, then got a bike, then lived with others in an apartment . You truly cannot get anywhere if you birth children too soon.

@@speaktruth9313 They have babies on purpose, for the welfare.

We have exactly the same conditions here in the UK. Literally word for word. Worse actually, because we don't just get followed around - here, the housing workers force their way into people's homes against their will. If one tries to speak up against this, the punishment is false accusations of the tenant allegedly having been "abusive and violent" and "attacked the housing workers" - and subsequent consequences. Obviously, nobody believes the tenant as the poor are always assumed to be lying troublemakers, stupid, violent and drug addicts, so making a formal complaint is pointless. The mold in homes is so terrible it's sickening. Low income housing landlords demand that tenants divulge everything about themselves, from income to s@xu@l preferences, who they sleep with and who they live with, religion to ethnicity, date of birth to employer etc. If one refuses, they use psychological tricks to get that information and force their way into people's homes, as mentioned above. They then take pictures against the tenant's will and report back during weekly meetings with police, social workers etc how tenants live, what they got, how much money they have, what their preferences in the bedroom are etc, and all gets put on file. Lack of medical care - officially we have a socialized medical system but reality is poor people get medical treatment denied. Doctors make assumptions about each patient and if they decide a patient is stupid and poor, then that's what they write in the medical records, and no amount of the patient producing evidence to the contrary can change that - and with this, the patient is condemned to not getting treatment but knocked out with either antidepressants or tranquilizers. That's all a poor person can get, no operations, no actual treatment. Only antidepressants, tranquilizers, painkillers and abortion pills. All of these get absolutely pushed on the poor, and those assumed to be poor. Most people cannot withstand the considerable pressure and take these tablets, terrified of the consequences if they refuse. Refusing to take psych meds results in false accusations being entered into the patient's medical records, "patient is abusive and aggressive" etc. People that get targeted in such ways are not so much black people here but mainly women, especially women that are not politically correct such as intelligent women, those who are outspoken, those who try to speak up against injustice, attractive and slim women (they get hated on like mad!), women who refuse to live promiscuous lives, women who believe in God, women who can see through all this. Also immigrants as long as they are not Muslims as Muslims have special rights here, women who work for a living instead of lying back and dropping kids, women who refuse to go through the casting couch for a job or an apartment, women who are educated but for some reason or another ended up poor - usually as a result of abuse and trafficking, which is rife here.

Slavery was never the right thing to do, but it at least on some level worked and many slaves lived long and relatively prosperous lives. Would they have rather been free? Probably, but for a long time that option was not open to them, so they, I believe, made the best of a bad thing. Sometimes a slave would run away and it wasn't a rare event. Laws were passed to return slaves to their owners, even in the North, when they were caught. It was a stressful time and it led to our Civil War in which 600,000 men on both sides died, it can be argued, to free the slaves. My great great uncle died in Andersonville. I have seen his head stone in the huge cemetery there. Reparations from me and my family....nope.

No. We know for instance that some very good, honest and brilliant people such as Thomas Jefferson owned slaves. He BTW inherited his from his father in law. Many, if not all Southern Plantation owners used slaves as field hands and servants. It was the system and had been for a very long time. Certainly some slaves were treated worse than others. It just might be that Thomas Jefferson in order to make the best of a bad deal treated his field hands and servants well. After all, a happy slave must have been a better worker than a sad and abused one. Moreover slaves were extremely expensive, some costing $1,000 or more. It was therefore, money in the bank to treat one's slaves as good as possible. Were there some evil slave owners? There must have been, but there must have been some good ones too. Put yourself in the place of a slave owner. Now tell me how you are going to treat your slaves (called field hands and servants, never "slaves").

No, payment was not getting a whip.

From what I remember it as being quoted was "from can't see, to can't see no moe" and I remember hearing this back in the 80's from people who's grandparents had been born into slavery.

@@derricklangford4725 where were your folks enslaved?

Oh good grief. That’s shocking.😔

Yes it is shocking and more then likely not true. I would love to know the name of the "older black entrepreneur". Do you see how people can make up a story but provide no information to verify it. This person can only get uniformed people to actually believe this. Please be smarter then that.

@@mfalme4837 you don't know anything ... I don't put out names unless talking to a historian ... Central FL in the sixties was Orange Groves which needed Workers ... There was one crew leader who walked from Alabama to Orange County FL...He ran crews for years and started buying Groves ... When all the Yankees Started moving to FL he became a Millionaire From Land Sales ... Crew Leaders could be bad, good or very bad ... It was only one out of many who who buried that one worker ... a Friend of mine was a teenager on that crew and witnessed it ... This was mid sixties and most have all passed away ...

It's the same as the Mafia in the sixties...they buried a few people...Karen's have a tendency to jump to conclusions with their mouth before looking at any evidence...another thing in the sixties there were a few small towns that blacks wouldn't even go to due to the fact they were killed and chased out of town in the past ...

There were many slave revolts, large and small - not common HS historical subjects, but the accounts can be found, and should be more widely known.

HELL YEAH, ME TOO !!!!!!!😂😂 THEY SHOULD MAKE A MOVIE LIKE THAT !!!!

Actually it was over 100 years of insurrection that did it the so called Seminole ( runaway) wars was actually the gullah wars. It lasted from1753 - 1858

Yes! That's why after the Civil War the south lost most of there economy because they no longer had free help and they didn't learn many of the skills of the formerly enslaved people!! They just supervised, paid the overseer to watching brutalized the slaves and reaped all the $ benefits!!

There would have a blood bath as all the militia's moved in. The South would not tolerate it.

It is sad you believe that. Yes, there are many buildings and homes in Africa from the 1700s

@@timeforchange3786 Huh? And who built them?

Now why would they tell that

Considering they thought us 3/5th human (as if that's possible) relegated to animals which I find weird for all of the raping that went on ,I guess they hadn't heard of beastiality!!!!!!

Some people think it's more fun to focus on the horrors, which shouldn't be forgotten, and dwell upon them thereby creating unhealthiness on several different levels.

This is nothing to celebrate you sound so ignorant

Let me sum it up for slaves built America !!! The whole fu king country was built off the backs of free labor from black people

Then you aren't looking hard enough. From your comment I can tell the little history you know is biased

That's because by the time cameras were invented, "white slavery" had essentially been phased out. Prior to the USA being created, white British and Irish were enslaved right alongside Africans. They were all "indentured servants."

Hey my grandfather came as white slave on eagle gallery from England to north Carolina to Virginia picking tobacco. Most people before in colonial times were slaves. Africa sent convicted tribe war members to USA as punishment. So we all in this together. We were dumping ground for convicted felons and governments still sending convicted felons over emptying prison's.

@@samiam7086 Don't try to tell that tale. Whites were never slaves in America. Indentured servitude meant working for an agreed upon time period to cover the cost of the free trip to America, then the former employee could go wherever he/she pleased. Slavery, as we all know, was a far different type of arrangement as no pay was involved, and the slave was never free to go.

Bacons rebellion Thomas Wisdom was sent to Jamaica into slavery for his part in Bacons rebellion from Jamestown. another Grandfather sent into slavery from Jamestown. Rebecca Aldridge Dorchester Maryland in slavery had to leave her daughter behind when she left, because the baby was born into slavery and the little girl died in slavery. White people where slaves to .

Slavery was normal back then. They grew up hearing of Roman and Egyptian slaves. Africa had slaves as well as Native Americans. It was a business. The first slaves in Virginia (1619) were actually found on a Portuguese war ship headed to Mexico. Out of the over 300 slaves only around 20 were brought to Virginia

@@timeforchange3786 True. It was much more normalized. I bet if you talked to some slave owners, they would just pass it off as the way things are done and not really get into it. There are plenty of slave owners that were cruel and evil people. Then there were others that "simply" overlooked the humanity in black people. Many of the slaves were actually captured and sold by Africans, to the ships. Doesn't make it any better, but sure shows that money drives everything. Then to add injury to insult, they had the Jim Crow laws, named all the military bases after confederate generals, forced segregation in school and public, just keeps going up to the red lining blacks out of purchasing houses. It's an ugly story and the southern tradition seems to think ignoring the ugly parts is fine and doesn't need to be taught.

@@timeforchange3786 man over 20,000,000 Africans were brought over here during the Atlantic slave trade. Slaves were brought over here to the Americas 200 years before the USA even became a republic in 1776.

@@aarondigby5054 slaves were in Florida in the 1500s by the Spanish long before Virginia. Why do black people want to unite with "brown" but hate "white"? Ignorance I guess.

@@timeforchange3786 everybody who knows history knows there were slaves in the Caribbean and South America as early as 1545 if not earlie, I believe the English came along around 1650 maybe a little earlier. The French settled in New Orleans decades before the English in America.

The lands were burnt out and they had a surplus of slaves and slave families. This was one of thereasons why importation of slaves was abolished in 1807. These states supported the ban in order to jack up prices.

@@SandfordSmythe Thank you. It puts everything in different perspective. It makes sense.

@@SandfordSmythe Lol, did you read Trump's 1776 project?? They tried to frame the abolition of the Transatlantic slave trade as a noble gesture and completely ignored the fact that it was purely economics to keep the price of slaves high, which of course benefitted the wealthy Southerners who dominated the US government at the time....

Jefferson's slaves were sold prior to the Civil War

@@timeforchange3786 but if you were to say Uriah Levy's plantation very few would know where those 19 slaves were enslaved at that time.

@@floppyfairy99 there were cruel masters, like Byrd, and people who viewed it as a business. Just like today there are good companies to work for and bad companies to work for. People had different work ethics back then and some slaves lived better lives than poor white people.

True. This is the version from a white man's perspective who seems to have that illogical "it was not so bad" perspective. It similar to listening to a Nazi talk about Germany and what happened to the Jews. The actual enslaved people paint a different version.

By heathens do you mean the rival tribes that captured Africans and sold them to European and Dutch & Spanish slave traders ? You do know white people were not running around Africa kidnapping people with nets right 🙄?

Lol

Anything but..

Are you truly that ignorant?! Evil slaveholders never gave them a break, except on Sunday

Whataboutism 101

@@alphavegas1 it's facts and realism let's tell all truth not negate the facts . Yes many blacks unfortunately was enslaved no fault of their own but many wasn't as well and was wealthy some owned slaves themselves some gained wealth by other means. Let's tell the full truth that many others was also enslaved Whites And other non blacks even owned by some blacks . Yes some blacks did own white slaves . Just like some native Americans gained wealth from the slave trade as well as some being enslaved themselves. Let's tell the truth that in the very beginning there was no such law stating blacks couldn't learn to read and many blacks was actually more literate then whites of the time this is part of the reason why they changed the laws.

@@alphavegas1 but I do like that statement whataboutism lol imma use that with your permission of course lol

@@kaleahcollins4567 Whataboutism is basically shifting the conversation. Example if Im on trial for murder and my lawyer says "maybe my client did murder the person but whatabout Ted Bundy, whatabout Charlie Mason" No matter what else I'll or evil happened in world's history to bring it up to lessen the impact of the main subject is whataboutism. So since the subject what black slavery. WHO GIVES A FUCKING FUCK ABOUT WHAT ELSE HAPPENED. Stick to the subject. Understand?

@@alphavegas1 sweetheart it's not shifting anything it's telling the whole story not parts

just because of "our skin tone?" Do more research man and come. lot better than this. it's deeper than how much melanin is in our skin.

They can go to hell!

If you say it that way, black people didn't like black people because of their skin color.

You have to visit a PLANTATION. You'd be amazed. They still have rooms set us as they were back then

You realize there are tons of pictures from the Civil War right?

Those photographs ARE NOT real. I have real photographs in my possession...today..pretty much worn. We must tell our story before WE ARE ALL GONE.🤢🤢🤢

Some of the photos in this are not even taken in America. Some do not pertain to slavery, most are art works rather than photos and always made in the context of the masters not the slaves. Some were taken of actual slaves, but only rarely as photography mostly did not overlap with the slave period. The ones that were taken back then are not really taken to show slavery as such, but to demonstrate wealth and prosperity. There are some engravings and art works that do present a real picture. Please disregard any prettied up pictures of slave quarters, mostly they do not present a true picture, whole extended families lived in very small spaces. Please also note that there is a lot of emphasis in this of known historical political people, presidents and the like. There was a lot more to the picture than these high profile people and their slaveholdings. Please try looking at slave auction records for a more accurate picture of how slaves had to live. Also please disregard all the talk of growing veg and trading chickens, as if these were recreational activities. These were actually about survival. The whole section about the cloth manufacturing stuff run by six women really needed to be looked at more objectively. How many slave were they producing fabric for? Where did the materials come from (cotton grown by other slaves) and yes the narrator did mention it was a cost cutting exercise. Maybe not so much about what possessions, clothes, each slave had, and whether they had adequate shoes to wear in winter.

Makes you feel like God's favorite people don't it?

@@nevergiveup2106 keep that hate alive, we need it more than ever... Right ???

Slavery was indeed horrific. Yet the average black American today, though a descendant of slaves, is about 10 times wealthier than the average black African is today.

My favorite is when they find out that indigenous people and black people owned slaves!lmao

A slave DID NOT get to keep a dime when they were rented out !! This video is obviously from a white person perspective

that's hardly surprising as KY was a pro-union slave state...
