Ugly ass c00n bytch:picard: Oh yea I remember when I made a thread about this a long time ago:sas2:

King Gezo of Dahomey said in the 1840s:

The slave trade is the ruling principle of my people. It is the source and the glory of their wealth...the mother lulls the child to sleep with notes of triumph over an enemy reduced to slavery...[81]
In 1807, the UK Parliament passed the Bill that abolished the trading of slaves. The King of Bonny (now in Nigeria) was horrified at the conclusion of the practice:

We think this trade must go on. That is the verdict of our oracle and the priests. They say that your country, however great, can never stop a trade ordained by God himself.
[82]

Yeah I read about this bytch awhile back and it made me sick. Didnt she have that quote about rather drowning a slave than let them go free or discounting?

Queen Nzinga was selling people too
They're celebrating about the Dahomey bytches show. They're most likely coming up with a way to julez about this
What’s this about?

They're celebrating her feminism in the guardian.ng
Three Female Nigerian Feminists Who Made History | The Guardian Nigeria News - Nigeria and World News
Madam Efunroye Tinubu came to Lagos from Abeokuta. She was a successful businesswoman, slave trader and a renowned “Kingmaker” of her time. She held the government of Lagos in her grip and was acclaimed to have organised the first major palace coup: the power tussle between Oba Akitoye and Prince Kosoko (1849-1851).
Madam Tinubu, just before she was deported to Abeokuta by the British Government, gave the then Governor of the Colony, Sir John Hawley Glover (24 February 1829-30 September 1885), the parcel of land on which the iconic “Glover Memorial Hall” was built. The Hall later became a citadel of arts that birthed the growth of art and culture in Lagos State and also saw the birth of stage play productions from great thespians like Duro Ladipo, Herbert Ogunde, Wole Soyinka, Steve Rhodes and many others.

:ohhh:
Wow, what a boss bytch

:mjpls:
I saw a site celebrate those Signare women because they had real power in the western world even though their wealth was from slaves. Seen a post about one of them having a regular black man as a lover and if he made her mad she would put him into slavery.


Someone in the comments says that the old money in Ghana, Nigeria, Benin is slave trade money

It's the timeframe for me :picard:
She was doing this AFTER it was banned and it was almost certainly globally known how bad slaves were being treated in the new world

I read a story couple years ago about nigeria slave culture within nigeria. Like there is a famous family/town where even now people can tell if you come from a slave or a slave owner that lived there in the past based off name

You guys keep repeating the article and it has nothing to do with the transatlantic slave trade. The osu are slaves to the gods not actual slaves

The concept of race did not apply back then. People would separate based on being in different tribes. There's still tribalism all over the world to this day.

Doesn't make it right at all, but this is how they most likely rationalized selling their own. Y'all applying our thought processes to folks from over 5 centuries ago.

Slavery existed in Africa but it was nothing on the level of the inhumane barbaric chattel slavery that we went through here where we were treated worse than animals.

Slavery in Africa was indentured servitude. You worked for free until you paid off your debts etc etc.

If, and I say IF, our ppl sold us to white ppl, they could not have known what we were in for once we touched down on America's shores. They had no way to know that we would be raped, brutalized, etc etc. They thought it was the same as slavery among black ppl in Africa, where if someone was your indentured servant, you could trade them between each other.

I'm still saying IF though, because I honestly do not believe that our ppl sold us to these devils. I think that's something they made up.

It's not a matter of "if". They didn't give a fukk about the people that they sold or what happened to them.
