Do we have any nutritionist on board? I need someone to address the condition slaves would have been in upon arrival.

After a 4-5 month voyage...man they would have been in bad shape! Even those who survived would not have been worth much right? They would need to be nursed back to health right?

400 people on a ship...have any of you took a cruise? I do it often and with the technology and employees cleaning, after 7 days that ship is :usure:. Yall trying to tell me a wooden ship with people shytting, pissing, and bleeding all over the lower level wouldn't kill everyone on there? Crew included.

Chained to the floor for months...you would go crazy!!!! Cholera, typhoid, ebola, etc. Food poisoning kicking our ass in the 21st century on cruises. I know all them nikkas got sea sick, throwing up!

The more you actually think about:stopitslime::lolbron: gtfoh!!!! How long did it take them brothers to be fit for duty after arriving? My mother in law been in the hospital for two weeks and her muscles and weight are atrophied. And they shipped how many slaves over here? Them cacs must have had space ships....:ohhh:


plus it never made any sense to me why europeans had to ship millions of people over from another continent to pick cotton and sugar.

is it really that hard to train indians to pick cotton and sugar? :francis:

Natives and Africans have both corroborated it and there is more evidence for it but believe what you need to get you by.

I don't think anyone here denies that the trans-atlantic slave trade occured (we only disagree about the scope). you're the one that is COMPLETELY discounting the pre-columbian prescence of Africans in the Americas despite the OVERWHELMING evidence.

1. Melanesians are not African 2. Maybe Malians came (I have never ruled this out) but I am not acting as if it is fact


believe what you need to get you by:yeshrug:

I'm not going to keep going back to this point, because I dont know if you guys are just talking or you are sincerely generally misinformed.

I dont understand how on one hand some of you cats are praising Mansa Musa for taking hundreds if not thousands of ships across the Atlantic before Europeans did, and then when it comes time to talk about enslaved Africans being forcibly transported along that same path ya'll go to "bu but how is it possible all dem ships made it across the Atlantic with the waves and hurricane :dwillhuh:"

How long did it take them brothers to be fit for duty after arriving? Many of them DIDNT arrive. That's where the concept of tight ship vs. loose ship came. Ya'll trying to tell me people were shytting and pissing and vomiting...ya'll trying to tell me there wasn't disease and other illness. YES! All of those conditions existed. You buffoons are making the mistake of trying to rationalize the most inhumane act recorded in human history. I know its an ugly history, but I'm telling you the MOST irresponsible thing you can do as a black man is try to minimize this act. Ya'll are going to learn one way or the god damn other. Some of these posts, especially coming from posters who talk themselves up to the be the vanguard or future of the Black union are downright embarassing

LMAO!!!!

Who on here is trying to marginalize the slave trade........ :dead:

Show the posts.......

The sad part is....... This thread really doesn't have anything to do with chattel slavery, which is the greatest crime against humanity........ not the so called voyage over here....

So if nikkas took a boat ride, or was already over here.... both groups were in the same boat....

pun intended

4-5 month voyage? it took 2 weeks to a little over month:what:


Modern trans atlantic ships probably plan for 2-3 weeks due to unforeseen weather and ocean conditions..... but so called rickety ass wooden sail powered slave ships was making this hop on an average of 3 weeks without fail........? :childplease:
