I believe it was Muslim slave traders who captured Africans and sold them into slavery. Yet young Blacks take Muslim names and follow the cult of Islam and the cult of the Black Muslims (beliefs drastically different).

When will they learn their own history, instead of always blaming the country where they found freedom, unlike many Blacks in Africa who live in horrible situations/

From kaslin: “I believe it was Muslim slave traders who captured Africans and sold them into slavery. Yet young Blacks take Muslim names and follow the cult of Islam and the cult of the Black Muslims (beliefs drastically different).”

Actually, the initial capture was usually a more powerful African tribe taking anyone they could and selling to the highest or handiest bidder. Thomas Sowell mentioned that these African slavers sold roughly the same number of slaves to the Arabs as were shipped to the New World: about 15 million each way.

America has millions of descendants of this shameful trade living free and many holding office (No, I do not include our President; black he may be, descended from American slaves, he ain’t).

Where are the modern day remnants of the Arab slave trade? Easy answer, they outdid us as far as horrific treatment of slaves. They worked them to death. Literally. Each and every slave they marched across Africa died without legacy.

And this “religion of peace” wants to rule the world.
