The Royal African Company

Chartered by Charles II in 1672 and headed by his brother the Duke of York for more than two decades, the Royal African Company held a monopoly on trade with Africa which included gold, silver and slaves.

From 1680-86, the company transported an average of 5,000 slaves per year, most of which were shipped to colonies in the Caribbean and Virginia.

Thousands of slaves arrived in the New World with the company’s initials branded on their chests.

Why did I think it important to post this very short history of a company that probably few have ever heard of?

New York!

Since the Virtue Signalers are demanding that everything that is offensive to blacks be torn down or renamed .. why not start with New York?

After all, New York was named after the great Trader of African Slaves, the head of The Royal African Company ... King James II, also known as the Duke of York.

Were the current “liberal” Jewish owners of the NY times also slave traders as inferred in the article? What should bother us is many of these same virtue signaling leftists who always blame poor white deplorables as the real racists, and of course white supremacists and much about our founding fathers as racist and evil. The left and their hypocrisy will eat themselves.

Another interesting article by Goodwin.
