Slavery and the Making of America (2005) - (Part 1 of 4) - The Downward Spiral_004.flv

[christo930]

This idea that the slaves were worked to death is stupid, that only happened in Nazi occupied Europe because the end target was death. It takes an incredible amount of resources to capture and transport a slave, it is much cheaper and more profitable to keep a slave in good health than to keep paying large sums for new slaves. It's only 11 minutes into the documentary and already at least 2 things are wrong.

[christo930]

@christo930 To give you an idea here, a young male slave was worth about 150 british pounds or so, when you do the conversion into modern monetary amounts and erase productivity gains and take inflation into consideration, a slave was worth about 1/4 of a million dollars (this is not a direct inflation adjusted number, it excludes productivity gains, on a straight inflation adjusted basis, a slave was worth about 20K in todays dollars). Nobody is going starve a 250k human of burden.

[christo930]

I can't believe what I just heard, that N. Caroline was the "first" slave society. Nothing could be further from the truth. Ancient Egypt was a slave society, Babylon was a slave society, the Roman Empire was a slave society, south America had slaves. Slavery predates writing!

[annazt11]

@christo930 Ancient Egypt was not.

[christo930]

@annazt11 You're joking, right?

[annazt11]

@christo930 No, just read a simple book on the subject. When the Nile flooded every year, some of the farmers could work on the buildingprojects. They were obliged to do so but they were not slaves.

[christo930]

@annazt11 Even a simple google search brings up hundreds of pages for Egyptian slavery and even written slavery treaties in ancient Egypt.

[pucksterz12]

No wonder why they really can't stand "whitey". These feelings will probably continue to be passed on from generation to generation, understandably.

[aubrey44]

[mattvlad3]

@pucksterz12 africans solda africans, and slavery was a worldwide stuff. (that still exist in africa). jews were the traders, and jews controll media. 1+1=.............

[ghanabanana]

@mattvlad3 jews controlled the media jews were the traders but you forget to mention that back in the days the jews were actally asian arabs and the modern white jews were rounded up tortured experimented, killed and almost became extinct, I know you r into conspircey but you are one fucked up obsessed dude . Are you white from germany. Africans sold eachother so what did we sell white people because they were white and lastly african sold eachother only during wars so shut the fuck up

[mattvlad3]

@ghanabanana misinformation? are facts, stop be blind to support your inferiority complex, immigrants are used by criminals who import animals (like u) to destabilized societies

[ghanabanana]

@mattvlad3 ahh the racist rears his ugly head what a shame you r just another backwards typical cracker i will do you a favor and leave you to your backwards mentallity.

[mattvlad3]

@ghanabanana "backward mentality"? your worthelss race didnt even create an alphabet, you always lived in rich land, you're just able to make 20 children per woman and then ask me to help. you didnt have dignity, and im backward? yeyeyeye

[BantuNation]

@mattvlad3

Actually language was started in Africa by Africans as well as the alphabet. . I would go into more detail, but History tells the truth. Europeans stole technology from Africa as well as Eastern Asia, China. The Renaissance owes tribute to alot of Arab innovations as well.

[mattvlad3]

@BantuNation you can give any detail, cause is a bs, i study history, all what you have is an huge inferiority complex, whites created 95% of all inventions ect, you're just a silly race just able to cry, and try to steal my heritage, hrw original pop in middl east north africa were all caucasians, now most are brown cause arab-slave trade.

[BantuNation]

@mattvlad3

White created 95% of inventions = false. Go study Indian/ Arab / African , and Chinese history...

You clearly do not know much about your own history. You should study it before claiming white people invented everything with the exclusion of everyone else.

BTW, alot of these white people you praise were ridiculed and even killed because of their idea's, and advances in technology. Some were even mistreated like Tesla. Doesn't sound like a unified culture to me.

Go read more.

[mattvlad3]

@BantuNation i do. arab (even most of the times are persians) and all the original pop of middle east is white, assyrians and caledonian catholic are the most who remain "pure". are white. india was dravidian (negroid), aryan migration brought civilization and so on. chinese are about the other 5%. tesla was ridiculised....you've done nothing and you dare to criticized the fact that history and ppls are full of shit? cant you realize how much you'r pathetic?

[BantuNation]

@mattvlad3

Tesla was lied to by your great white people, and was forced into digging ditches for about a year or so before he got back on his feat. It is scientific fact that you can trace the chines language, and symbols back to africa, and the africans that first migrated there are still in southern China. Strait hair, and pointy noses does not mean anyone is white, in fact Africans have the most genetic variation than any other group.

[mattvlad3]

tesla as been snobbed, leonardo almost killed, not like the great african genius, (famous & numerous) that thier people understand, in fact they build unbelievable inventions and so on, and, even if few by number, and living in a poor-freezing land, they conquired the world. how can i dont know the notorius african alphabet, their ancient migration to china, how can this white (master just in tricks) show me archeological red-blonde feat of egyptians.....

[BantuNation]

@mattvlad3

Learn about the Mali, Benin, Nubian, Egyptian, Zulu, and Song-jay empire in Africa before you even start correcting all of the nonsense that you are trying to perpetuate.

[mattvlad3]

@BantuNation my people lived in a rich land for about half a million years, they never done nothing, when we sold each others to africans, and went to the richest places in the new cont (haiti,jamaica, north brasil), we still did none, we're first just in crime (not ability in war, we always lost in wars), we're the one who ask for respect, maybe, because deep down, we know we're inferior. thanks, you opened my eyes, im just jealus

[mattvlad3]

@BantuNation seems that you've finally realize the point. now get over it, and you'll feel better, and remeber that be good is the most important thing. i'd love to say that negroes are very good, but i can say it, is not true. try to do your best. bye
