Inconvenient Truths about Race & Slavery

Posted By Jack Kerwick On May 15, 2014 @ 12:20 am In Daily Mailer,FrontPage

“The truth is harsh.”

So spoke the philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche, back in the 19th century.

On no topic is the truth harsher than on that of race.

The Eric Holders of the world incessantly bemoan the absence of an “honest discussion of race” in America. But such a discussion, beginning, as it must, with a discussion of slavery, is actually the last thing that they could afford to have, for such a discussion would include facts that would undermine much of the ideologically-invaluable conventional wisdom concerning this topic.

For instance, the very word “slave” stems from “Slav,” i.e. a reference to the experience of millions of (white) Slavish people who endured centuries of slavery at the hands of African Muslims. This, of course, is a most inconvenient truth, for it is a most Politically Incorrect truth. But it is the truth.

Yet the Slavish aren’t the only whites who spent centuries in captivity: Europeans of various backgrounds were enslaved by African Muslims as well. All of this is heavily documented in such neglected pieces of scholarship as Robert Davis’s Christian Slaves, Muslim Masters: White Slavery in the Mediterranean, the Barbary Coast, and Italy, 1500-1800 and Paul Baepler’s White Slaves, African Masters: An Anthology of American Barbary Captivity Narratives.

Nor is it just that millions of whites in Europe were made to toil in bondage for hundreds of years. Don Jordan’s White Cargo: The Forgotten History of Britain’s White Slaves in America and Michael Hoffman’s They Were White and They Were Slaves: The Untold History of the Enslavement of Whites in Early America impeccably establish that whites were enslaved in colonial America as well. Moreover, these brave authors show that the conditions that whites, including, most tragically, white children, had to endure both en route to the colonies as well as once they arrived were at least as dreadful as those experienced by Africans.

The rest of the history

Yes thank you. I am familiar with search engines. What I am seeing is crime statistics from DoJ but without mention of race other than the victims' race.

For example Criminal Victimization, 2010 no mention that I could find of the offender's race. Using Adobe Reader "Find" to search the pdf document for the word offender. And also search for the word race in a separate search.

You may think you're responding to something I said, but you're not. Check out my comment #10 again, and #7, to which I was responding. I use DuckDuckGo.

It only counts if you were black and picked cotton.

There is other research that shows Whites and Indians being sold into slavery by the Puritans in New England. Families that did not conform or individuals, were banished and sent to the West Indies as servants.

Yes thank you. I am familiar with search engines.

I wasn't being facetious, sorry if that's how it seemed. I do use images frequently and that one of Google looked good.

When I read your question, I copied your highlighted section, pasted it into Google, and got hit, and figured you could make changes as needed.

I don't look for those kind of stats any more, so I can't give you specific links. "FBI — Uniform Crime Reporting" used to be pretty good. It's vast, may be a bit difficult to focus on exactly what you're looking, and in fact under Obama/Holder certain things may have been eliminated. Good Luck.

Well actually it did help. Though I have searched for the title of Table 42 nothing of value returned vis-a-vis D0J pdf files after 2008. I already had the pdf files for the years 1995 through 2008. I was looking for beyond those years.

So I did try a couple of variations concentrating on the word "offender" and the DoJ's National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS). It appears that they collect offender race data but do not publish that data any longer.

The pdf files now have a different format -- or at least the ones for 2009 and 2012 that I looked at did. And no offender race data published but description of the NCVS did say that the victims were asked to ID the race of the offender. I could not find that data in what I believe to be the new NCVS format.

But until I see a professional prove it I am not 100 percent sure. Simple logic however says it's true because the facts are extremely damaging for the Victims Industry.

Whites are far more often the victims of black-on-white violence of all kinds than the reverse -- plus maybe even worse than the numbers show because I believe that illegal alien and gang-banger Hispanics are counted as white.

Of course the DoJ's NCVS is not the FBI's reported crime stats.

Thanks.

The new search did find a shortcut to Table 42 data for up through 2007 still available on the Dept. of Just Us and Our People here . At least it was there at this at the time I posted this reply. :)

Here are a couple of blogs whose authors might give you some help through comments or possibly email:

http://nicholasstixuncensored.blogspot.ca/
The blog needs an editor, but covers lots of interesting ground, and he does get to the bottom of a story.

http://stuffblackpeopledontlike.blogspot.ca/
Goes by the pseudonym Paul Kersey. He's focused on the effect on cities, institutions, sports etc. by black crime.

Kersey write occasionally for takimag and vdare(threads from there banned from FR - I read them regularly and used to occasionally post a comment with a link to them)

Stix writes at Vdare occasionally, I think.

I remembered a remark on SBPDL along the lines that 52% of murders in some year had been committed by blacks. Thought I might be able to find that, but couldn't. Dropped the sbpdl did another search, eventually ended up here.

Did a search in that site using it's search function (upper right corner) for "murder by race" and ended up here.

Clicking on the second entry: FBI — Expanded Homicide Data Table 6 got me to here

You should be able to find just about anything you want using their search function.

Thanks for all the tips and links.

Just one more thing that I found interesting.

I believe that by using DoJ 2007 Table 42 I was able to verify

Patrick J. Buchanan writings in Suicide of a Superpower, “An analysis of ‘single offender victimization figures’ from the FBI for 2007 finds blacks committed 433,934 crimes against whites, eight times the 55,685 whites committed against blacks. Interracial rape is almost exclusively black on white — with 14,000 assaults on white women by African Americans in 2007. Not one case of a white sexual assault on a black female was found in the FBI study.”

Others reported the same numbers.

But I could not find FBI stats.

Turns out that DoJ stats obtained from interviews with tens of thousands of victims of crime match those numbers.

Crimes of violence against whites 3,262,660 and 13.3 % were black offenders; that's 433,934 times
Crimes of violence against blacks 562,470 and 9.9% were white offenders; that's 55,685 times
Crimes of violence against whites by blacks is 7.79 times the number of crimes of violence against blacks by whites.

Also verified was "Not one case of a white sexual assault on a black female was found."

Also verified was "Not one case of a white sexual assault on a black female was found."

Seems to me unrealistic, that not one case could be found. Certainly nothing to do with "whiteness" and "blackness" if one thinks back 150 or so years ago.

Race these days is not all that clearly defined in mixed race people. From Wiki. Non-Hispanic Whites are a subset of White Americans, the other being White Hispanic and Latino Americans.

Would the rape by a Latino male of a woman with the ancestry of the woman below be "white sexual assault on a black female"? Not at all unthinkable. She's Soledad O'Brien. She works for CNN, and her mother is Black-Latino.



There's not much on the internet about white on black rape, but this passage caught my attention:

Because interracial rape is now overwhelmingly black on white, it has become difficult to do research on it or to find relevant statistics. The FBI keeps very detailed national records on crime, but the way it presents rape data obscures the racial element rather than clarifies it. Dr. William Wilbanks, a criminologist at Florida International University, had to sift carefully through the data to find that in 1988 there were 9,406 cases of black-on-white rape and fewer than ten cases of white-on-black rape. [320] Another researcher concludes that in 1989, blacks were three or four times more likely to commit rape than whites, and that black men raped white women thirty times as often as white men raped black women. [321]

It's from a book by Jared Taylor, Paved with Good Intentions: The Failure of Race Relations in Contemporary America (New York: Carrol & Graf, 1992), 92-93.

He's one of the founders of American Renaissance, smart, capable, biased, and extremely unlikely, from what I've read of his, to falsely make such claims.

FWIW.
