Honor to those who fought and those who helped rebuild afterwards. The lack of shame for the horrific acts of violence that occurred under slavery always boggles my mind.

I was surprised at the number of white folk who died to stop slavery or aid slaves. It was over twenty percent of the recorded black folk's deaths; still not enough but it wasn't nothing. This is assuming the numbers are accurate. I never heard about that in history class. Both blacks and whites fighting for individual freedom. Heard plenty about how robber barons were awesome and unions suck. Indeed, honor those who fight who fight for each other.

Unfortunately my ancestor was Governor of Jamaica 3x, President of the Council of Jamaica 2x, and was a plantation owner who amassed 8 million pounds for owning a plantation and 889 slaves during the 1700’s..

Emma's interviewing skills keep improving. It's kinda cool to be able to watch her relatively early in what's probably going to be an interesting career.

We need to hear the prospective from Black people. Why are we always told the versions of history out of the white man's mouth?

@@jayr.7209 True, but at least the white man in this video condemns the British for treating black people so horribly. He's combating white supremacy by telling the truth about countries like Jamaica. He's certainly on your side.

the small communities described here sound a lot like the base Christian communities that the Catholics liberation theologians started in many places in Latin American in the 1970s and 1980s to empower people - they were also small, local groups

Violence is not a good thing but sometimes its very necessary. Just like if your arm gets trapped under a rock and only option for life is to amputate your arm. Its not a good thing but its necessary. *not advocating for violence*
