Reflections on the Legacy of Slavery: Charles Long

In this presentation from the Legacy of Slavery series, Professor Charles Long reflects upon the historical introduction of Africans onto the North American landscape and its impact not only on African Americans but Europeans as well. He discusses the creation of wealth in North American, the historical inequalities involved with that wealth, the implications of slavery, and the controversy over reparations on modern-day American culture and society.

Natives from the Americanas werent black haha. They were a tanned skinned race.

All the things about the slavery was about money.People made money from slavery.Slaves worked years but did not get any pay for the wealth they helped to creat.Those who are enjoying the wealth through inheritance should be made to give part to the descendants of the slaves who now live in poverty in America,the Caribbean and AFRICA.

I knew he would show up sooner or later. And here he is: Milton Friedman and his apologetics for American slavery.

You worthless fucks never give the fuck up, do you?

To quote Woody Guthrie: "All of you fasscists bound to lose / you're bound to lose / bound to lose "

@UNSUNGBAND Happiness can only be experienced by the individual. There's no such thing as the collective mind. The desire to be free is the desire to not lead nor follow. Anyone who tells you any different is either trying to dump THEIR responsibly on to you or trying to chain you to your fellow man for THEIR benefit and is the true propagandist .

[UNSUNGBAND]

@yammyspeed13 That's the nicest piece of propaganda I've read in a long time. What a joke. American culture and freedom?? YEAH RIGHT.
