The British, however, were invaluable in abolishing the trade on the high seas, now back bad as ever, if not worse.
That is all well and good what Britain did on the high seas after a few centuries of both transporting and directly slave-driving in its colonial plantations, but it goes to show just how badly Americans know their(our) own history. It’s a reflection of what I know most don’t want to hear. We are all a product of the manipulation of history progressives have been doing since well before the 1920s.
But to stick with the main point that I stated. Britain does not own abolitionism. America does. If more young Americans knew this fact it would be a lot harder for progressives to do their guilt tripping.
That Declaration is just sitting there, it’s a gold mine waiting to be used and nobody wants the gold.
