I think that is a little bit of incorrect information about who captured the African slaves... OTHER African tribes captured other Africans and sold them into slavery to the Europeans on the ships most of the time. So the Africans were actually selling themselves into slavery. I think the "expert" needs some more research time.

Your reply is only partially true. The first set of Africans who were captured were in deed captured by other Africans. But once Europeans learned the lay of the land and no longer needed the "middle men", they raided villages and did the capturing themselves. Entire European military operations were carried out against tribes which decimated entire populations of villages and tribes for most of the Slave trade. Also let's not forget, that the first Africans who were human traffickers did not fully understand what they were doing and the intentions of white Europeans. However overtime, Europeans turned against their "middle men" who became captives themselves. Let's aim to understand not to just comment.

@@jaemaur814 I did say a little bit incorrect. But mind you if you think that human beings didn't understand that they were selling people for goods to other people.. I think that you are just saying that African people are stupid. Slavery in all its forms has been practiced on every single continent (except antarctica.) of this Earth and I don't think any group of people's or their ancestors were not able to contextualize the actions that they were doing. So I don't doubt that Europeans went and got slaves directly but that also doesn't negate the fact that Africans were also selling Africans into slavery. But from the information that I have read about the subject it was far easier for Africans to be purchased from other Africans by Europeans because it negated the risk of you having to directly raid a community. If you are a business owner.. a very deplorable business owner but a business owner nonetheless.. would you not want to mitigate risk? Of course.

@@jaemaur814 Prove it. Also, Africans were being enslaved in 2500 BC, as well as others. Europeans are hardly the only people to practice slavery; why, Arabs have an impressive history. Please buttress your claims about these slaving expeditions by the Europeans; I've never read about any major European slaving campaigns in Africa. Africa has been exporting people since time immemorial, as anyone with a cursory knowledge of African history would know.

Let’s forget to mention one of the FIRST slave owners. He had an indentured servant, common at the time. The indentured servant finished his time of servitude and asked to be released. The man with whom he had indentured himself denied his release. The man then packed up and left. Some how the “indentured” person as brought back to the village or area and taken to court by the man he had indentured himself to. The man convinced the court that the indentured man had broken his contract. The court ordered the man to be “indentured for life” making the other man one of the first slave owners. This man’s name was Anthony Johnson. A black man. Even in what would become the USA, there were many blacks who owned land, property AND slaves. But this doesn’t fit the narrative of the race baiters and perpetual “victim” ideology.

Check colonial law. An Indentured Servant is not a slave. Slaves (by law) were slaves for life. Indentured Servants were under an Indenture for a fixed amount of time to pay off their fare. My ancestor Job Tyler, a White Englishman, made such an arrangement. A VAST MAJORITY of White Colonists came over as indentures. I honestly do not know of any Africans who came over as Indentures. We do know of escaped slaves who made their way up to Boston and worked on ships and at the warfs. The situation with the black community today is dismal. They got too used to welfare and stopped working, resulting in a narcotics dependency that led to violent crime and the Democrats let that fester rather than offering alternatives which has led to the violent anti-American, Communist BLM.

"A slave purchased on the African coast for the equivalent of 14 English pounds in bartered goods in 1760 could sell for 45 pounds in the American market. A slave's journey to a life of servitude often began in the interior of Africa with his or her capture as a prize of war, as tribute given by a weak tribal state to a more powerful one, or by outright kidnapping by local traders. European slave traders rarely ventured beyond Africa's coastal regions. The African interior was riddled with disease, the natives were often hostile and the land uncharted. The Europeans preferred to stay in the coastal region and have the natives bring the slaves to them." www.eyewitnesstohistory.com/slavetrade.htm I don't have to prove they were all purchased. I just have to prove that the slave market was open. and it would be reasonable to assume the europeans engaged in the slavery described in this video would buy them rather than go on raiding parties into an unknown land with entrenched powers that would resist. It would have cost more for the europeans to do the raiding. purchasing slaves made cents and pounds.

From the same article as your quote; "The merchants obtained the slaves from African chiefs by giving them goods from Europe. At first, these slaves were often the captured soldiers from tribal wars. However, the demand for slaves become so great that raiding parties were organised to obtain young Africans." your quote was an exerpt from; "John Newton was a slave-captain between 1747 and 1754. He wrote in Thoughts upon the African Slave Trade (1787): "The slaves, in general, are bought, and paid for. Sometimes, when goods are lent, or trusted on shore, the trader voluntarily leaves a free person, perhaps his own son, as a hostage, or pawn, for the payment; and, in case or default, the hostage is carried off, and sold; which, however hard upon him, being in consequence of a free stipulation, cannot be deemed unfair. There have been instances of unprincipled captains, who, at the close of what they supposed their last voyage, and when they had no intention of revisiting the coast, have detained, and carried away, free people with them; and left the next ship, that should come from the same port, to risk the consequences. But these actions, I hope, and believe, are not common."" so. why worry about right and wrong? its what happened. what difference does it make? DO i own any guilt for that period of time. NO I DO NOT! did it make sense for the time. yes.

Humm... interesting, from the British perspective the triangular slave trade is typically taught that the Americas as a whole (mostly in the US South and beyond, but not at all barring Northern colonies prior to their local abolitions) were the destinations for slaves who produced natural resources that were processed into industrial goods in the _UK_ instead. Perhaps the US narrative is geared to depict the colonial US as industrially capable, or even to highlight the implementation of slave plantations in the Carribean colonies (as opposed to the continentals). At the end of the day it's probably just some lack of consensus from two different historical perspectives though.

Pretty sure this story is incorrect and is the North American version. Originally the slaves of Boston were Whites from Britain called The Quakers. At this timeline their Masters were Black Native Americans of New England. Royals of Europe decided to change things up by freeing the Quakers and gave them their Masters as slaves. Many Quakers were against slavery and decided to leave for Pennsylvania. That's when the Royals decided to have Black Native Americans shipped from Boston to Algeria (Morocco). They replaced these slaves with Indonesians from Madagascar and sold them advertised as slaves from Guinea in West Africa. Similar to Keneen Ivory Wayans family are Indonesians not Africans. They are Indonesian Blacks (Austronesians/Asiatic People/Semitic People). This did not sit well with Quakers and Harmonites because now the Master and the slaves were one in the same Eurasian People. No slaves from West Africa were ever shipped to North America.
