Can someone confirm if this is true? Not the first time I seen you write it.

From what I know, it was a certain type of african that were sent off, and they were NOT muslims
I do not see proof of that in America nor the Caribbean, Brazil etc

So basically what you are saying is that you are ill equipped to have this conversation, but despite not being equipped to have this conversation you are injecting known falsehoods into the conversation. Let me be the first to inform you that you already know what you are writing is false, because one of the largest enslaved groups in the USA were the Mende people from modern day country of Sierra Leone. The Mende are the largest group that contributed to the Gullah Geechee culture in the USA. The Mende were and have always been by and large Muslims. Fulani and Mandgingos were another large group of people enslaved in the USA. They also were Muslim. However, since you are too lazy and uninformed to do your own research then I will lend you some:

Muslims arrived in America 400 years ago as part of the slave trade and today are vastly diverse

Muslim Slaves: America’s First Muslims​

The Forgotten History of Islam in Black America

  • Muslim Slaves in America: A Significant Number

    Muslim slaves in America were quite significant in number, probably reaching into the thousands. Historian Michael Gomez points out that between 400,000 and 523,000 Africans came to America during the slave trade, at least 200,000 came from areas influenced by Islam, thus Muslims may have come to America in the thousands, if not tens of thousands.

No I would not agree with that. You are confusing and conflating all animist religious practices in Africa. Not every animist religion was Voodoo. Voodoo was only practiced in a very small area which is in the modern day countries of Togo and Benin.
Juju which was practiced in modern day Nigeria and the cosmology practices of the Dogon and the people of Congo religion was not Voodoo. Islam and Christianity were far more widely practiced than Voodoo.

I will be super clear that I have interacted with many Arab and Muslim people.
Never has there been a time I felt disrespected.

Show me where in Brazil, Cuba, Jamaica, Alabama there is evidence of them wanting to build mosques or saying allah?

They went to extremes to keep their ways.
I do not see much evidence of them having been muslim.
Of the millions who were taken, at least a couple hundred of them would have kept those ways.

Instead wherever you go, whether they speak english or spanish, they have the same customs
And none of it is similar to muslims

My elementary understanding of history is that the Arabs/Muslims were the enslavers
The first and still today is

You should stop writing stuff on this subject and just read and educate yourself. You are literally completely uninformed. It is really sad that they purposely miseducated you. Frist of all Islam was being practiced in the USA up into the 1900s, which is what led to the formation of the Nation of Islam. The remnants of Islam have always existed in African American Churches and in Blues music, but people who didn't understand what they were looking or listening too just didn't know it. I have literally never been to an African American Church that didn't play old meter hymns, which are sometimes called Dr. Watts songs. Those songs are literally Muslim calls to prayer sang in West Africa to this very day.






Second of one of the most well known slave revolt in Brazil's history was by Muslims. It is called the Male Revolt:

The Malê Rebellion in Bahia: Brazil’s African Muslim Uprising​


Slave Rebellions in Brazil: The Muslim Uprising of 1835 in Bahia​

Did the arabs not START african genocide?
Did they not have a religion of dominance/war?

Did those africans who became muslims become viewed differently from those who practiced traditional african religions?

I asked you about the majority of OUR ANCESTORS
There were millions taken
Your article mentioned 200K earlier
That is not much compared to the amounts that were taken

What I am getting at it, and stating straight up, is that the Arabs/Muslims were picky as to whom they considered beneath them
And those people were OUR ANCESTORS

And from everything I have learned, blk muslims WERE NOT THE MAJORITY sent away or captured

You are being dishonest

I am willing to learn, you have to be honest though.

i sure hope Niger has a plan and know what it's doing and doesn't end up like Mali and Burkina Faso where the jihadist attacks has increased since they brought Wagner. Luckily for them the jihadist attack is not really as prevalent there.

Update:

Niger Prepares to Defend: The ruling National Council for the Defense of the Fatherland in Niger has deployed troops on the border with Nigeria and Benin to repel possible intervention from the ECOWAS countries. This is reported by the Malian edition of Mali Actu. Army units are located in the city of Gaya, the southernmost point of the country on the border with Nigeria and Benin, as well as in the department of Birni-N'konni in the Tahoua region




The US is looking for ways to keep troops in Niger, even if it recognizes the rebellion as a coup d'état, CNN reports, citing sources. In this regard, the White House is considering the possibility of issuing special permission to continue military operations.

The leader of the rebellion in Niger met with the envoy of the group of Central African countries The details of the conversation between Abdurahman Ciani and Herman Imongol have not been announced.
