[TallMan_J]

Where is here grave at? I need to relieve myself.



Efunroye Tinubu

Rest in piss, ugly hoe.

 

[Problematic Pat]

That’s what I’m talking about direct reparations to those affected and a revised Liberia or ADOS homeland that’s is a territory of the United States.

ADOS maintain their citizenship in the country that they built but autonomy in their own land

fukk kinda c00n shyt is that? You nikkaz on drugs for even thinking such nonsense up.

Watch this video in it's entirety. Some of y'all have a very limited understanding of just what happened in Africa during the Trans-Atlantic Trade and are, unwittingly, feeding into 'White Supremacist' ideology.....



Black people didn't sell other Black people into slavery.​

Her story isn’t as nuanced as that. She was an Egba (Yoruba subgroup) socialite that was mostly a palm oil merchant. And at the time, there was a civil war amongst Yoruba subgroups due to the fight for supremacy after the fall of Oyo Empire. The Egbas were also fighting against Dahomey subjugation on the western flank.

So, due to her connection with palm oil trade - she brokered a deal with European traders whereby she was selling war captives as slaves in exchange for fire arms and ammunitions to fight the war. A lot of princes, warriors and kings from all sides were sold during this period in exchange for fire arms and ammunitions (some were also able to buy mercenaries with the sold captives).

She stopped selling slaves after she found out what was being done to them and led a war against European slave traders hence she was banished from Lagos by the Europeans. And they cut her power and influence. What she did towards the end of her life is why some still celebrate her but she was a very powerful woman. You can read books on history of the Yoruba and there’s one that was written by the son of an Oyo Prince who was sold into slavery but ended up returning to Lagos after slavery was abolished.

This is a summary of her life here: Madam Efunroye Tinubu (ca. 1805-1887) •

So she was selling opps who were at war with her, not her own tribe? Interesting. Makes sense to sell POWs if you aren't gonna kill em but you dont want to house and feed them either. Still fukked up but at least she kind of tried to redeem herself when she found out what was going. I try to believe that was the case with most African slavers

I get that(I'm Nigerian too)but it's still wack that it happened and a lot of Nigerians today condemn her and want to take down all the memorabilia dedicated to her

Dude you're talking to a guy who bushed the country. Don't really see none of yáll nikkas in Africa period. And Although I love Africa one of the biggest problems is that they're not told the truth about white people, They really are surprised to find out about racism.

Obviously ADOS people know how white people move so if a ADOS governor or president or whatever sold out to the cracker he'd be criticized.

Then you got the super Captain Black America ADOS who uses the We built this country so I'll never leave excuse, So a Terrority is the best of both world you're not expelled, You have the right of return at wlll you keep all US property, You have some limited rights to vote, You get immediate tangibles you check white racists because if you hate Black people you'd be an advocate for ADOS having a homeland.

Then there's the benefits of possibly having your own money (meaning Black People on the money) you own law enforcement your own military and your own ecomony. Frankly I don't see a downside.

Looking at it now and what happened to slaves in the new world - we can all agree that it’s evil.

But back then, was it a necessity for fire power? - probably. Without them, her people would have been killed and enslaved en masse by Dahomey. Those Dahomey Amazons were some of the most brutal/vicious warriors in 19th century West Africa and King Ghezo was up there with Hitler. However, with her help, her people were able to repel and crush Dahomey 2ce. 1st under Ghezo and 2nd under his son.

The OP also left out her war against the Europeans after she found out what they were doing to the slaves and how they defeated her, took all her power and banished her to a small town. She lived in the small town until she died.

 

[MikelArteta]

Her descendant was the governor of Lagos in the early 2000s?

Yup Tinubu still basically running lagos though

I wasn't aware of her heel-face turn, ngl. Still doesn't excuse it.

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.

Unfortunately it's real but I definitely think cacs exaggerated. There's no way millions of black people could have been taken from West Africa to the western hemisphere without involvement of some Africans.

That's how slavery was in Africa during that period. Slavery in Africa was not the same as slavery in the Americas (North, Central, South). Slaves were POW's or women and children from opposite tribes. Could also be punishment for crimes. It wasn't cradle to the grave like slavery was in the United States. When the white man came from Europe, he took advantage of tribal beefs and exploited them to his advantage just like he did in East Asia (Korea's, Vietnam, etc), and West Asia (Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, etc). Gave one tribe liquor, guns, trinkets, etc and they went to war with tribes they had already had issues with and so forth. Now eventually these tribes got greedy and just started selling their own to cacs who shipped them off to the Americas and the rest you know is history.

THERE IS NOT AN EXCUSE FOR SUCH TREACHERY. Just given a context to how the world was hundreds of years ago.

"She didn't know what was going on"
That's a lie

She eventually lost control of the trade. She also tried to throw her people under the bus to save face.
Nobody removed the part about her being repentant, that was balanced by another african author

Oladipo Yemitan doesn't sound like a white man's name to me

Doesn't look like a white man to me.

Sooooo it was nuanced then
