No tribe even sold their own tribesmen. Rival ethnic groups captured others in war and those captured people became slaves.
We all know how Africa is a monolithic country (not continent) to most cacs.

Being a slave and being brutalized and treated like filth are two different things.
I don't remember where I read it but I'm trying to look it up nowwhere can I read this?
I'll continue researching laterThese first-hand stories agree that in 1098, after a successful siege and capture of the Syrian city Ma'arra, Christian soldiers ate the flesh of local Muslims. Thereafter the facts get murky, Rubenstein says. Some chroniclers report that the bodies were secretly consumed in "wicked banquets" borne out of famine and without the authorization of military leaders, Rubenstein says. Other reports suggest the cannibalism was done with tacit approval of military superiors who wished to use stories of the barbaric act as a psychological fear tactic in future Crusade battles.
I don't pay it attention anymore because cac's are gon cac.
without slavery there would be no hip hop
it's all good to look back at what happened back then, kick a history lesson or two but what about NOW though? it sounds like you're arguing with a white person in today's world that has nothing to do with the past and are blaming them for what someone else who is white like them did. you're wrong for trying to shift the blame onto them as if they have anything to do with that mess. slavery has gone and happened already. the effects of it still exists. i would rather hear you argue with someone about that shyt than to blame someone who was born in 1992 for slavery.
Exactly what I came in here to post.
They weren't enslaving their own.
Another tribe IS your own. Being from a different tribe doesn't mean sh!t, the brotha still looks like you. Both sides that participated in the trade were some hoe a$$ n!ggas, and they are on equal standing with me
What kind of stupid shyt is this? 99% of those people back then didn't even know "white" people and other races existed. Even in Europe they went by "tribes". European countries were at war all the time. You think their cared that they had the same skin color? There was never a black unity and there will never be.
Sit your ignorant ass down, clown.
I'm not putting this on white people of today's head I'm just talking in general about the origins of slavery and the fact of the matter is that whites of the past were responsible for it.it's all good to look back at what happened back then, kick a history lesson or two but what about NOW though? it sounds like you're arguing with a white person in today's world that has nothing to do with the past and are blaming them for what someone else who is white like them did. you're wrong for trying to shift the blame onto them as if they have anything to do with that mess. slavery has gone and happened already. the effects of it still exists. i would rather hear you argue with someone about that shyt than to blame someone who was born in 1992 for slavery.
No one in Africa considered themselves black. They went by tribes like the rest of the world did during that time. This whole black, white, Asian etc. categorization was started by the Europeans that you so despise.Still doesn't change the fact that they were all black. Isn't that the same thing this whole thread is about? Ignorance and not knowing any better doesn't absolve them of any wrongdoing. It doesn't even matter if they were black or not; they sold other human beings and Europeans brought or either kidnapped other human beings. There is something wrong with that
You're trying to rationalize being sold out just like the cacasians rationalizing their ancestors purchasing slaves
The most f*cked up part of it is, in parts of Africa, they're still f*cking up their own people (The diamond trade, civil war, apartheid some time ago). Hell, it's not much different here in America wit n!ggas still killin' eachother
Cacs do what they do, and n!ggas are helpin' out

I'm not saying what they did was right, but this whole "your" tribe is "my" tribe, because we look alike that you are trying to push is bullshyt
