Soulhunter59 and leeharveyosmosis, you care to back up your hate speech against whites with some actual sources? I've got one - a black history professor at Princeton. Nell Irvin Painter, on pg.42 of "The History of White People" says "By the middle of the 17th century, when Virginia's slave population numbered 11,000, only some 300 were African. Any of them - African, British, Scottish or Irish - were lucky to outlive their terms of service." There are tons of books about this; learn to read

50% of slaves were own by black people....just like today you people are killing your own people

@HereWeGoSteelers086 Oh, look at Wikipedia. I'm glad that YOU aren't somewhat influential like say Glenn Beck or maybe Bill O'Reilly. You spend a few minutes looking up the history of slavery on Wikipedia and think you are an expert in the subject. On Wikipedia, anyone from any place in the world can enter and change the articles to ANYTHING they want to change it to. Very...quality.

@soulhunter59 Colonial history's closer to US history than enslavement of Natives! Ask Mexicans why their ancestors enslaved & bred w/Natives to create mestizos. MY ancestors weren't Spanish. Brits arrived in 1607, when 10% of the Natives remained, also owning slaves ("Red Over Black" by Halliburton, extensive enslavement by Cherokee). As Beck explains, EVERYONE had slaves, not just whites. Most African slaves wound up in Brazil. Less than 4% wound up in N. America WHERE MOST SLAVES WERE WHITE!

@illuminate737 Post I mean pre but your still a twit because you knew what I meant. But your still talking about colonial history which is not U.S. history. Another point you should consider is why were Native American's shipped off as slaves when they they already had "slaves." No dept to pay off just normal slaves. They didn't do it for long because they all died but there it is. And each settlement had their own rules so they took care of kids in their own way. But work or starve I guess.

@soulhunter59 NOBODY was enslaved POST civil war! Nothing but nonsense you pulled out of your butt, as usual. Painter writes primarily about American history, not other countries. Who did you mix her up with? I gave you the page number for the quote: pg. 42. Look it up. And if indentured servants not having kids was just a "meaningless vow", how come the punishment was enslavement of the child? BTW, who do YOU think had to feed/clothe that child? You're just being stupid and wasting time
-
@illuminate737 I said post civil war you twit and I suggest you re read my first post because I used an entire speech as a reference. Next I'm going to say that you most likely took her work out of context because out of all the interviews I have seen of her she talked mostly of whites outside the US. In fact the first chapter is about the Greeks. Oh and the rule about not having kids was really a vow not to have sex until their term was up and they got married. Thanks your playing.

@soulhunter59 once again, not a single source in your entire post. You're boring me. You expect me to ditch documentary reference collections and Princeton because some nameless twit on youtube claims to have read old newspaper articles they can't remember? I read an old newspaper that said the rich were space aliens, so why don't you go chase the illuminati? For those out there who have some sense - no, I never actually read that. BTW, the Civil War was the END of slavery, not the thick of it.
-
@illuminate737 Apparently you don't know what a source is because I gave you one. My most detailed research of slavery consisted of reading old news papers that were written right before the civil war. I had to write a research on runaway slaves. I also had to write a 5 page paper on a subject that the book only talks about in one paragraph or less. When I say forgotten I mean names and places not many even care about. Guess what there were no white run away slaves in a single article.

@soulhunter59 that's probably true if you forget everything you're ever told this quickly. Glenn Beck's point is that this isn't being taught in high schools, & should be. I'm afraid the A's you claim don't outweigh Princeton, and you need to take this debate up with the Princeton professor I'm quoting. Daniel Meaders put the white slaves' 18th century fugitive notices in a documentary reference collection that's available at any bookstore. Read. Quit blaming your stupidity on your blonde hair.
Indentured servitude was a way to pay off your dept Glen but nice try. No it didn't have anything to do with your race at the time but many people got cheated when it came to becoming free.

@soulhunter59 you need to do a better job of saying what you mean. I can't make heads or tails out of that gobbledegook.
