教科書明明都有講..
It came out totally sideways as expected. We just wanted to see a thriving African community in United States of America like we see a thriving European community in United States of America. Instead it is everything but thriving. They are suffering mentally psychologically and it is just not going as expected. I don’t know what it is or what it was.
We were just trying to start an African community in United States of America. Of course, they wouldn’t leave by choice so we had to use force violence. European-American, African-American not that hard. I don’t why many exaggerate the situation more than what is is it came out totally sideways than expected.
May God never forgive our past leaders.they will never know peace
why do you not mention that at the height of slavery in America there were four times as many enslaved Africans in Brazil? Why do you not mention that the Portuguese, who colonized Brazil were the major traffickers of slaves? Slavery in both Brazil and the US were abolished in the same year. But for some reason historians like to keep this a secret. Why do you not mention that there were more enslaved Africans in the British Caribbean colonies than in the US. Why do you not mention that slaves were first brought to America while it was a British colony?
They still practiced slavery up till the 20 century even after European didn’t need them
This was assigned by my teacher so hiiii yallll
Great video TED-Ed and its really sad that people was able to do that to another person with out their permission :]
This might’ve all been because of Ham, Noah’s son
They report this like it happened all the time. It's like just using serial killers to define American history.
Awful
While I do agree that slavery is a wrong thing the books fail to tell you that African Kings sold the people they conquered for personal gain. 😮😅😢
These video help me for my seminar sir thanks 🙏
Wish we could turn back time…
So tell me about the current slaving going on in the Middle East…
Every British, Spanish and Netherlands pupil should learn this at school, if not already. So, many millions were killed on transportation and later abuse…😢
This is there Christianity
I have a homework assignment on that to learn English in France.
Wow, I just thought that they were just under the constant threat of violence.
Just a reminder, Europeans contributed to slavery the least out of any race besides blacks.
White people were enslaved so much by Viking/Mongols/Byzantines they’re were called “Slavs”
African slaves were just the last to figure out the game ie if you don’t have guns you will be enslaved
2nd amendment goes a lot
Hard to believe that in us blacks have been free for less time than enslaved. Slavery was 400 years and slavery only ended 158 years ago. Thats crazy to think about
GET BACK TO WORK U MO
01:06 native american's were not enslaved.. not systemically or on a large scale, some aholes definitely did enslave them, but it was against the spanish law. the "worst" thing that was done was the "mita" in peru, which was the existing system of forced labor, but not slavery. the tribesmen decided which young indios to send to work, they got a salary and returned home. they had to go work, but they were not slaves.
Fun fact:Portugal started the slavery
They would release diseas killing their cattle and source of income and then enslave the civilians
The greatest tragedy
A tragedy in history
Thanks helped me a lot with my homework 📄📚❤
History is distorted like this video.
Without Africans enslaving other Africans there would be no significant selling of Africans, it would would never have been millions of people, but a much smaller number in the thousands. Let’s get some facts correct. Did this video miss this fact? If so, it is propaganda.
Between 1662 and 1807 British and British colonial ships purchased an estimated 3,415,500 Africans. Of this number, 2,964,800 survived the 'middle passage' and were sold into slavery in the Americas.
Obvious example of how capitalism ruined the world.
I used this video to introduce the history of slavery to my daughter. Thank you for a very balanced and fair representation.
My history teacher forced me to watch this
1000 years ago?
Where is the answer
Hard question
Who will pay
Everything in this video is taught in american schools. Does everyone live under a rock?
This wasn't as biased as I thought it was gonna be. Honestly solid overview. Although this is in the textbook.
