“Can you please cite the source of this scintillating bit of history that has been so conveniently long forgotten?”
Wikipedia is probably your most convenient source, it has the same information as what I posted. Just plug in ‘Anthony Johnson (colonist)’ or ‘John Casor’.
I don’t think that there is any dispute over this bit of history, it’s just not well known. And the proponents of ‘white America as the root of evil’ aren’t much interested in publicizing it since a black plays a prominent role in establishing slavery in colonial America.
I don’t doubt the truth of it.
The three kingdoms of the Sahara thrived on a slave trade of blacks from the south that were shipped along the caravan routes to points east and north.
The harvesters of blacks for the slave trade were blacks.
No, I don’t doubt it I just wanted to know the source and of course I can look it up.
I went hunting yesterday after posting to you, and I found it pretty easily. You are right it is no secret, but like I stated , we won’t be seeing this taught in any black schools and the History channel will avoid it like the plague.
