If my research is correct, these YouTube videos of West African historians discussing the role of kings selling their own people, is true.
Sometimes one is led to believe that Europeans went to Africa collected everyone by force including the king and queen and brought them to the new world as slaves
It seems the missing link, the elephant in the room, the role of leaders in West Africa who benefited or assisted all the things that created the slave trade. They sold their people and stayed and benefited. The people who bought them do not represent the normal human who would not buy another human and do such things.
Simply playing the color card as mutually exclusive realities does not get true healing or closure or health and stability
It creates the same type of hatred and bigotry that are hoped to be confronted.

You don’t even want to study CRT so why continue to speak about it? You and many others here continually ask less than intelligent questions about the subject but refuse to take a moment to pop open a book to understand what you’re disagreeing with.
I will admit that, although most of your post don’t seem to have any comprehensive topic, you are the only one I’ve seen who is able to formulate your own thoughts about the topic, even if they are nonsensical

One thing is for sure you did not even consider the confront that West African Leaders did infact sell their own people
I know this is a valid point to make for healing as this is a human thing, not a purely black or white issue.
Africans have no problem discussing acknowledging educating on this topic.
In the United States it is simply a white group of people who alone work to dismantle and take advantage of and get their blood oil at the expense of all the other colors of people.

Here is what is influencing my thoughts and questions. These women who are talking about race and the history in the United States are not discussing the things I asked in the question about the role Africa Leaders played in the equation.

PO3 Aaron Hassay Because that’s not the topic of the discussion.
Yes some African leaders sold people into slavery. What do you want to discuss about it?

Maybe actually learn about the history of Africa before asking this question, guy. This is embarrassing.

Sure many of these societies had slavery. It's just Europeans came in and offered the rulers the big bucks if they sold others or their own people!! However, CRT is just the fascist rights latest gambit to muddy the waters and spread more hate. They are truly pathetic!!
