How the US and the world got
to the point, we need to confront the racial prejudice and hate. The used of
Africans and race as slave historically is quite new, about 900 years, but used
of slaves has been a mark to all humans, Rome (in this case after the fall of
Cartage to Rome, the wealth and the slaves corrupted the Republic and set for
Military Dictatorship of Proconsul and empire(Carl C., 1984. The Romans, University of California
Press; Ducan M., 2017. The Storm Before the Storm: The Beginning of the Roman
Republic, Public Affairs New York; Watts E.J., 2018. Mortal Republic: How Rome
Fell into Tyranny, Basic Books) ), the Greek City states and case of Athens
Mines of Laurion about 50 Km own by the city was mined used of slaves and not just
Athens, but Spartan Society own identity (i.e. helots) in some ways the
Southern States in US identity based owning Slaves, while was not just Sparta
or Athens, but Greeks cities economy in Slave driven force (Durant W., 1939.The
Life of Greece, MJF Books; Freeman C., 1999. The Greek Achievement, Viking),
while not unique, from the Middle East Code Hammurabi, did not stop China or
India creation of cast system codified the Aryans invasion-immigration from the
North (the region included Persia) (Anthony
D W., 2007. The Horse The Wheel And Language. How Bronze-Age Riders From
the Eurasian Steppes Shaped The Modern World. Princeton University Press),
a common factor the slaves were war prisoners and debtors.
How Africa become source
slaves appear during the expansion of Islam to Africa, the first Islamic city
in Africa was Fustat (641 A.D.) served is administrative power in Egypt, until
it was ordered burnt in 1168 by its own vizier, Shawar, to keep its wealth out
of the hands of the invading Crusaders, one function when Islam expanded south
of today Egypt encounter the Nubia by them was a Christian, request from Fustat
was to send 500 slaves per year, this was beginning of the trade in Africa, and
transfer to the center of Islam of the time Baghdad, which we have first slave
Rebellion, the Zanj Rebellion was a major black-slave revolt against the
Abbasid Caliphate, which took place from 869 until 883. Begun near the city of
Basra in present-day southern Iraq and led by one Ali ibn Muhammad the insurrection involved enslaved Bantu-speaking
people (Zanj) who had originally been
captured from the coast of East Africa principally to drain the region's salt
marshes. The Zanj, who were primarily used for agricultural labor as part of
the plantation economy of southern Iraq. The demand for servile labor during
this period was fueled by wealthy residents of the port city of Basra, who had
acquired extensive marshlands in the surrounding region. These lands had been
abandoned as a result of peasant migration and repeated flooding over time (Waines,
David, ed.,1992. The History of al-Ṭabarī, Volume XXXVI: The Revolt of the
Zanj, A.D. 869–879/A.H. 255–265. Albany, New York: State University of New York
Press).
In the next step of this
long painful, needed to said we all come from Africa around 200000 years, since
we are mix not just Homo sapiens, but mixed other like Homo neanderthalensis, which
split from Homo Sapiens around 700000.
After Portugal expulsion of
Muslim in 1496 by Manuel I, the Portuguese look ways to bypass Islam in Africa,
with the fall of Constantinople 29 May 1453 to Ottomans closed supplied line of
slaves from Asian Steps, which tended to be white, Portugal not only look for
gold which has in the hand of Islamic Mali, with the Republic of Venice looking
for sources eventually Portugal found the perfect settlement in São Tomé and
Príncipe, give contact with Kingdom of Angola, which had not contact with
Islam, since Norther Africa and certain sections of Central Africa, Portugal
found hostile because being Christians in Islam territory.
Kingdom of Angola provided
the slaves to Portuguese, while gold become outreach, an innovation the created
experiment of plantation, using Sugar Cane, São Tomé location in Equator provided the Caribbean
experiments where monoculture in case Sugar Cane, to provided wealth this
wealth become source Capital used to drive Industrialization in Europe, London become
Capital source, from Portugal, Spain,
Bristol, Bordeaux, Antwerp to Amsterdam driving capital as exploration of other
humans (the capital for Newcome Engine 1712 and follow the corporation created
from patents, were intertwined with slave trade).
While, the Caribbean plantations
become source and wealth, the slave rebellion in today Haiti, expulsion of the French,
the economic has been felted in the poverty of the country, the fear in other
colonies, in US south with Scott rebellion, and the fact Spanish Florida, with
Freetown builder by runaway slaves, pushed the expansion to stop, many grip of
the land US was to maintain Plantation Economy, Colonies rebellion against Crown
had to do Mercantile Economy, colonies provided the raw material for made
products, the industrial revolution began provide the Science and technology,
began to bypasses the raw materials and economy of plantations become non-essential,
British began to distance and dismantle, the reaction of colonies was to maintain
the plantation, as Sparta dealt with slaves, the US white population had
disdain towards their own slaves percolated through all the areas of Society,
the attitude can be found in Southern
States, where taken advantage of others due to privilege, Arendt describe Cecil
Rhodes in his last statement, in establishing the Rhodes Scholarship in Oxford to advance the Anglo-Saxon (white power or
white entitlement), the Southern States try this in case Nicaragua a place to maintain
slavery in perpetually.
The plantations survived by
moving to cotton, and the closed of the human trade, US pass laws where slaves
become perpetual, and attitude of entitlement was not access to support, only one
group will absorbed all the benefices, from education to health care, the US
disdain to anyone who can´t advantage the system, will deny any support, the
heartless of the society, can be result today of the white supremacist white
house, the Republican party become white supremacist.
After the civil war, the
South work to maintain the slaves by working separated society, where African
Americas were limited to what could be, limited access, and violence using policy
(policy in US created to dominated and control the slaves) method of control.
The reason change happen,
not because change of heart but demographics becoming whites another minority
diminishing, but still strong hold in economics and power, George Floyd
lynching and the narcissism of the white elites denying the Pandemic, but the
illusion of power its if you can control narrative, which is not the case, the Virus
(DNA material rapped in protein) could not be stop, we, humans are intruded in the
environment, due Increased temperatures from Human Activity, Arctic open Methane
Gas, Bush Fires in Australia, Civil War
in Syria, which drought force farmers into city, with not Jobs, looking for
answers produce a clash.
The Nephew of Darwin created
Eugenics to advance Anglo-Saxon, the point system limited immigration to US,
not to 1963 the policy change, but more important used as covert to maintain a
racial inequality, up to them the society try to Justify by using biblical
explanations, but science dismantle influence of Religion, Pseudo-Science of Eugenics
become Justification in name Hygienic, the National Socialist in their Racial
Utopia, rationalized the Antisemitism, but the lessons learned in US
rationalization to Racist society, the economics become about power and
identity.
While Marxist do not understand
the identity is appealing to human yearn of belonging, this become the central
of identity, since people need of community and community become exclusion, to
Napoleon time recognition was given by Aristocrats which power claim by God,
Napoleon secularized, this force other source justification in this case
Pseudo-Science of Eugenics.
