How Do You Respond To c00ns Who Say, ‘Africans Sold Their Own People Into Slavery’?

[Uncouth Savage]

take it as an exercise in reincarnation....
say those who warred and sold each other were reincarnated today?
they would be selling meth/crack, pimping, some pastors, killaz etc

it is a how can I get paid situation...especially if one holds some form of hatred or tribal supremacy

There a dude who was a modern slave in Africa most of his life on Tik-Tok ima try and find his videos rn

He was branded and whipped yea sure slavery in Africa was "different"

Compare a nikka on tiktok to what happened 500 years ago brehs

 

[Barlow]

it’s true though

 

[Nkrumah Was Right]

You can’t really. Explaining to them would require them to grasp critical thinking and handle nuance.

He was openly a slave in his own area breh cause it was their culture to dis he had to be saved by the UN cause no one else though of it as "wrong"

Like Child marriages may be illegal in parts of Africa but many cultures do it anyway cause they been practicing it for generations that's wat its getting at

 

[GrindtooFilthy]

This sounds like a bunch of juelzing.



But anyway, my counter argument is that whites participated. They could've bought slaves and freed us. What'd they do? They treated them us animals.

"B.b..but Africans sold slaves."

Yeah and you participated in the transaction.

This is what happens when you don’t understand world history or cultural differences you get posts like these

My post is stupid ? yet yall make up myths that ppl in Africa were treating they slaves like "family"
it was "different"



I got nothing against Africans that sold slaves .. everyone had slaves back than but I aint gone say it "humane"

 

[Dafunkdoc_Unlimited]

Africans didn't sell 'their own' as Africa wasn't unified. Each ethnic group preyed on one another and saw them as 'others' worthy of enslavement.

This whole idea about African unity is propaganda that was created to unite Black Americans with Africans, aka Pan-Africanism, that ultimately failed, was historically false, and is now counterproductive.​

 

[Henri Christophe]

This is also why I'm a firm supporter of Pan-Africanism.

We already did the tribalism thing and we failed miserably.

We already fought among each other and lost everything.

The failure of the slave trade should serve as an example that unity is the only way forward.

I vividly remember white people trying to kick that shyt when I was a kid anytime slavery came up.

Africans didn't sell African slaves. They sold Haitian slaves. Gotcha

 

[Jekyll]

They did though…





Idk why Africans try to hide this point. The Ghana chief extending his hand in acknowledgment and solitude is the way to go about it.

I don’t…
