“......historians pointed out that it was probably never used for that purpose at all.”
So, this is just another faux photo moment in the lives of our masters.
Another faux photo moment - YES. Obama’s whole presidential career has been nothing but one big photo-op.
When told that this site was probably not a major slave-exporting site, Obama said (a la Star Trek):
Obama: I’m a lawyer, not a historian!
To which I say, “That’s debatable”.
Have the blacks attempted to get reparations from those who captured them? Of course not and that needs to be taught to the blacks who hold it against whites in general for slavery ever happening.
If they have a problem with their relatives having been slaves, then they should sue those who traded in slaves. Sadly this is treated like the drug problem. With the help of the government it is the general tax paying citizens who are being blamed for something they had nothing to do with a problem someone else profited from.
Even if I had the money... like most people I was not involved, nor were any of my relatives so take your crying and complaining somewhere else. Worse yet, the average black has more opportunities to get some sort of assistance or favoritism in today's society than the average white does.
If it was used for shipping slaves, Obama relatives were there shipping them.
It’s like old home week for the Bama boy.
