Breh finds out he’s a Beninese Prince

I'd have mixed feelings after finding out about his lineage, that my own family was integral to the slave trade and sold its own family into slavery if the story is even true.

five dollar africans just like five dollar indians
Slaves from Benin were brought to brazil not america
the real truth with this DNA test is that they are semantics at base, Americans are tied to west africa because the 100 year undocumented slave trade before the african slave trade which happened where Columbus would take blacks from america to europe, west africa, and mediterranean, this why those halo groups show up there
wouldn't even have this information if they never fond Columbus' notes detailing this which were never meant to to be seen by our eyes
another pastor running a scam, you can literally pay to considered royalty in this countries, his story doesn't even make sense

I don't know too much about Benin, but I always side eye people that use words like king/queen/prince in regards to West African society.
Most West Africans societies didn't have kings, a chief is very different from a king, respected but not royalty.

HEADS UP to all.
History is repeating itself. In the early to mid 90s there was a growing movement for reparations in the United States and other former British slave colonies. Many of the enslaved Africans who were brought to the current United States, arrived here when it was group of colonies under the British crown. Anyway, almost on cue, a set of articles and books were written to "shift the blame / attention" on African rulers and their facilitating of the transatlantic slave trade. The stories got published in all the prominent magazines , written by Black professors and writers. Most famous one was the article written by Henry Louis Gates "Ending the Slavery Blame Game". His pbs series about Africa, also went hard on the subject.
The existing momentum for reparations movement got drowned out, as the "selected" Black intelligentsia covering the story of African slavers gave other writers the greenlight to shift attention away from Western govt.s and institutions to the descendants of the African royals and merchants who made the decisions to sell people.
The "My Great Great Grandfather Sold Slaves" article from last year, with quadruple platinum thread on the coli ,was the modern day version of Gates' article. It was given placement in such an important platform for the same reason his was. This op article is along the same lines....and expect to see more articles.
