An intellectual , with a nice smile. Love him. Looking forward to hearing more real talk. Ps. I don’t judge people by the colour of their skin, I judge them by the colour of their teeth. Realistic talking. Hero and cowards everywhere. Out of fear comes bravery

Dr kwasi was my professor at bmcc College in African studies

Interesting how the countries he mentioned having revolutionaries don't seem to be quite accepted OR don't quite fit in the Caribbean and South America. Wonder if there's a connection.

Our Ancestors were enslaved not a slave.

So explain to me the logic of a bad slave because it seems to me black people see the world through eurocentric eyes. How could you be a bad slave if being held captive anything you do in liberation should be commended . How can any so called slave be worse than the people who enslaved them ? Is it good in eyes of a european to be well behaved slave or rebelious one whos persepective are we seeing the world from ours who fight for freedom or the other people who benefited from our enslavement ?

#GoGettersNetwork I respectfully disagree with the professor.. I agree its not just Jamaica but the entire Caribbean has unruly tribes which link back to West Africa.. The Slave Traders sent the Unruly slaves to the Caribbean b/c they didnt want them in the Americas.. This is why they put them on an Island... Itook a course in Binghamton University & stay after class to discuss the caribbean slave trade... The proofessor told me he didnt want to say it plain in the class but YES the Caribbean Slaves where sent to the islands by desigsn.. For instancre the eastern caribbean islands like St, Lucia & St. Vinent.. Many slaves over took ships & go ship wrecked in the eastern caribbean... Also Bookman the Jamaican that went to haiti to asist with the Revolution.. Many other islands had rebels & aisited too.. But the Narrattive in which we study African & Caribbean roots is still through a european lens... They are still stiring the Narrative.. I Love this channel keep up the good work

Uprisings in St Croix, Island is bloodstained. Maroons in Suriname 🇸🇷...

Jamaica has the most slave uprisings in the Caribbean.

They say the same about curacao (Dutch Antilles)

It’s not “completely” false. Slave traders did move slaves around based on certain attributes (physical and temperament) like livestock. That’s why it was called chattel slavery.

Facts

From my understanding they weren't unruly but they saw an opportunity and took it.

I will have to disagree with his statements. The island of Jamaica ( and others) were used a prison island for Africans who rebelled against the tyranny of colonialism. The British imperials specifically concentrated rebel slaves from different British colonies on the island of Jamaica as a form of punishment. One form of punishment is ‘Buck breaking’ , a form of homosexual act to emasculate the male leaders to instill fear and obedience. To this day Jamaicans are still against homosexuality for that very same reason. The people on the island are still temperamental, hot-headed and display leadership qualities. This is due to the fighting slaves brought there intentionally by the British. These slaves came from the Akan tribes and the Ashanti. Both tribes are eminent for there militancy and warfare tactics. It’s no coincidence that Jamaican as one the most influential human beings on the planet with a war-like attitude

I always thought that slave I Jamaica was myth imagine being subjected to this inhumane treatment for years I mean you name it the Caucasian commited it to the African and know one rebels or tries to escape that's hogwash
