From 1525-1866, PBS says 388,000 Africans brought to the United States. After Emancipation, the Black population was 4,000,000.

...is the math mathing??


How Many Slaves Landed in the U.S.?​

by Henry Louis Gates, Jr. | Originally posted on The Root

"Between 1525 and 1866, in the entire history of the slave trade to the New World, according to the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade Database, 12.5 million Africans were shipped to the New World. 10.7 million survived the dreaded Middle Passage, disembarking in North America, the Caribbean and South America.

And how many of these 10.7 million Africans were shipped directly to North America? Only about 388,000. That’s right: a tiny percentage."

Correct. They were breeded and violated in order to have more children so they could sell and enslave.

U.S (Colonial and Antebellum era) enslavement was a the first self-sustaining slave market -- and the enslaved reproduced (and massively forcefully breeded) enough to keep the market growing.

Please stop with this propagandist trope...

MOST of us were ALREADY HERE pre-Columbus.

African descended North Americans who migrated up from the Caribbean Islands and Yucutan Peninsula.

PS: They also KNEW we were already here on Turtle Island and that gold and silver was in abundance.
The Dogon tribes sold the star maps to the Arab muslim traders who migrated up into Spain as "The Moors" and that is the truth of how a closet J3w named Cristobal Colombo came into direct knowledge of HOW to get to North America. Furthermore, the Vikings and Templars had already made it to Canada via Greenland...so the land was known to exist before 1492.

Never forget who the Pope really is. The largest landowner on Earth...Ferdinand and Isabella were his flunkies and bankrolled the ships that were insured by the J3ws...they underwrote the WHOLE slave trade. They were NEVER our allies.

Lastly...if only 388,000 of us were brought over here, how the fµck is it that we are still only 13% of the population? The Census is a damned lie and always has been...its propaganda to scare larger nations like Russia and Germany into thinking its a LOT of armed crazy people over here with all manner of guns to stop a land invasion.

As many kids as black women have been having for the last 400 years...we are at LEAST 25-30% of the population. The numbers do NOT add up, even accounting for abortion and incarceration and murders and cancers/health issues.

Let's not forget about the intercontinental American trade. There are records of captives being brought from South America and the Caribbean to North America.

There were Black people in the Americas before slavery. I'm not sure how many. Some people hate when it's bought up. It doesn't sound too far fetched. There was another thread that went in depth about. We weren't always told the truth. Malcolm X and Martin Luther King found about it. You know they did a lot of research and reading. They both made speeches about it.

I remember recently my grandmother saying that the Black people had to show the White people how to plant crops or they wouldn't be able eat and make money. Her statement always stood out to me.

It wasnt even 388,000. Most enslaved were shipped here from south, central America and the Islands. They have LIED to us!! The truth is truly stranger then fiction.

Did your grands ever tell stories of being bred on farms are any knowledge of their forebears coming here off some damned ships?

Think about it, if white folk brought us over here to pick cotton and shuck sugar cane why would they need us to show them how to grow food? And how would a slave from Africa know how to grow Americam food crops in America? Our people taught colonials how to grow food here because we had been growing food here for centuries! We are on our land!.

They never bought millions of Africans over here hundreds of years ago! Where are the remnants of the boats they would have needed to achieve this? If this story was true there would be boat remnants everywhere on land and in the seas/oceans! Well, there aren't. It's true that we are an admixed population but our bloodline started here IN THE AMERICAS. Africans mixed with us here. We didnt come from Africa.

Exactly.

And all original Cigar Store Indians look like Black people.

We showed them how to smoke too.
