The first slaves in the Americas were Irish. The first chattel slave owner was black in the colonies. As she said, history is complicated and no one of any race is without guilt. Time to move forward instead of keep looking back.

One thing this video didn't mention was that after slavery was abolished in the western world countries like England and France sent navy ships to the Persian Gulf and off the east coast of Africa to try and stop slave ships from going to the Middle East and Asia. After slavery ended in America it was still going strong in the Middle East. The reason there isn't a large population of slave descendants in the Middle East is because they would castrate all the male slaves so they couldn't reproduce.

Blacks, we're not the only slaves in America. Thomas Sowell talks about this. I would say continue checking him out.

She's spot on, he still wants to hold on to that victim card.

I think the main point she is trying to make is that the powers at be will not stop talking about what makes us different and widening the divide between races and cultures because when "you" and "me" becomes "us" *they* are screwed. Pray to God we get there fast.

Unfortunately slavery is a part of EVERYONE'S history. I wish it was different but it's NOT. The narrative we have created around slavery is totally political. It's sad we no longer teach facts. I wish we would get back to teaching the facts in public school!

One thing Candice Owen didn't say in this video is that about 1/3 of the owners of African slaves in the Americas were black. That's something repairationists never talk about.

Thomas Sowell has several videos about slavery and how the British Navy ended it. Stuff you cant learn in school.

Here's something that'll blow your minds... In 1776, when the USA declared its' Independence from England, then fought the Revolutionary War, there were three times as many White Europeans enslaved in Northern Africa than there were Black Africans enslaved in the USA. That's like 1,200,000 White slaves, and 400,000 Black slaves. There were White slaves in America too! There were commercial Black slave owners in the USA. Every country in Europe enslaved there own at one point, not just the Slav's. When Candace states England ended slavery in 1833, there were three exceptions; two islands and India, they kept slavery going there until at least the Civil War time in the USA. Within a generation of our Independence from England, the Northern states abolished slavery. Some states did it immediately in 1782 when we won the Revolutionary War. So, I know the Brits' claim they were the first to formally abolish it, technically they allowed their England owned East India Company to continue the practice. I just wanted to point the last fact out to you in case you check out the video of the "British Crusade against slavery" that's out their. In the video the narrator claims that the very thought of slavery being bad was alien to other places in the world, which simply isn't correct. In 1804, our third President Thomas Jefferson sent our Navy to North Africa to stop the White slave trade happening their. If England was against slavery why didn't they stop it? They had the strongest Navy in the world at that time. Hence the Marine hymn lyrics... "From the Halls of Montezuma, to the shores of Tripoli" we will fight our countries battles... Tripoli in North Africa was where the battle took place. Just look at the time line throughout modern history of what took place and when. So, possibly France was technically the 1st to formally put an end to slavery. I'm not picking on England, I'm just a European mixbreed. I have both Celtic and Germanic tribal genes in me. Right now I'm pissed at my English side for what they did to my Irish side throughout history. LOL

Those in power use many tactics to keep the people divided. Race has been the biggest one lately, but other things too. The one thing they dont like is a well informed population that comes together and looks for similarities rather than differences.

Regarding the selling of black slaves by black people, it is important to consider that one of the main misconceptions is that "black Africans" were a thing... Sub-Saharan Africa was a melting pot of hundreds, if not thousands, of different tribes, often at war with each other. They didn't have a common " black" identity. They identified as a member of their particular tribe and the rest where the others. To be conquered, or feared, or avoided... Or enslaved.

Slavery also has different names. My great grandparents were indentured servants; my G'ma was born into it. Not long after my grandmother's birth, my great-grandfather's contract was sold to a wealthy european and he was shipped away, never to be seen again. When my great-grandmother's contract was fulfilled, she was thrown off the property and not allowed to return to see my grandmother. She was also never seen again. My grandmother ran away at 16 because she'd tired of being raped since she was 10. I am white and so are my ancestors. Can anyone please tell me how this is any different than that of slavery, be it whatever you call it?

Slavery in England has actually been illegal since 1066 when the king said "as soon as a man's feet touch English soil he's a free man" (or something very close) but it wasn't until Englishman Granville Sharp decided America shouldn't have slaves that we put our navy on the case .

Damn these are tough topics and history will always end up more complex than you'd initially thought.

It scares me when things i learned in grammar school is a big deal to adults today.

Reparations are hilarious, lazy bone idle people wanting payment for something that didn't happen to them, or anyone they know, from people that didn't do anything to them!

She makes him so uncomfortable. It’s like he is walking in a mine field or up on a tight rope. Meanwhile she just glows.

I love how calm your videos are.

“Everybody got some history…don’t mean we have to continue to live effed up mentally.” Love it, great video.

Yalls souls compliment eachother and Im all for it!

You two are darling! Love watching and learning together.

Logical, flawlessly logical. 🖖😎👍

AMAAAZINGGGGG GUYS HUH? 😊BUT YOU'D NEVER HEAR ABOUT THE REAL TRUTH UNTIL YOU DISCOVER IT! 👍 WAY TO GO BIG AND SLIHM, KEEP ON LEARNING! 💯

I can see it in his eyes that the man in this reaction wants to be the victim of something that never happened to him. I have a lot more that I could say here about that. But I'll just leave it with one word, pathetic.

Fun fact, Korea has the longest unbroken chain of slave slavery in history history spanning over 2000 years

The way slavery is taught in our public school system should be a crime. It pushes false narratives, or at best teaches a small piece of the whole pie with no context. It has indoctrinated kids to veer towards a life of victimhood and no hope for something better. It's really evil, and I'm so glad theres so many americans waking up to this, and seeking truth. Huge kudos to you two for having the curiosity and openness to see the bigger perspective of history, and culture.

I think the real truth of this video is that slavery happened. But in no way does it define who you are today. Unfortunately she is right the United States does seem to be the only country for the most part that dwells on its slavery past. Like Samuel L Jackson said when asked how to stop racism he answered stop talking about it. Perhaps it's time we stop talking about slavery and move on. Nobody that has ancestors that were slaves are any worse or better than I am, we all are "We the People"

82% of the U.S. black population immigrated into the United States after the ending of slavery. The last U.S. census taken prior to the state of South Carolina's secession from the Union, shows 94.5% of whites in the state owned zero slaves. (This census is housed in the library of congress). There was a catch 22 for the confederate states in listing the institution of slavery as being the top cause for seceding, because it was considered a state Right, & therefor in order to make it constitutional for a state to leave the Union, the confederate states needed to legally show a state Right was being trampled upon not only by the federal government, but other northern states. It did not, nor does it justify slavery in any way, but it was a legal stance to make their withdrawal constitutional. Keep in mind it was southern states that took the first steps to end slavery, long before any northern state. Virginia, as well as Tennessee, were the first two states early in the 1800's that attempted the first ban. Thomas Jefferson introduced a number of bills to end slavery. Tennessee actually passed legislation to phase out slavery over a 20 year period. The Northern states came in & ended it with their import tariffs on southern goods. As the north needed the money from the southern textile to help fund their industrial revolution. But winners of wars get to decide the history of wars, & reality or revision, of speaking for themselves, and for others, while the losers are painted as being the bad guys.

Keep on spreading the light! Truth conquers all! :P

I'm glad you guys took the time to learn more, with an open mind. And btw I'm pretty sure there WERE black slave owners in the southern US as well. Just as there were black people fighting on both sides of the Civil War

I guess in response to the proclamation by certain black voices that we were Kings and Queens and warriors and whatnot, this might be a good time to note that we were no such thing. We were the trash that Kings and Queens threw away.

Great video. I love history. Since you liked Thomas Sowell so much (as well as me) he has a video exactly about this topic and how it was never about race. At least not at first.

There are more black slaves today than there were during the Atlantic Slave Trade. It's crazy to me that people cry about their ancestors being slaves and ignore the fact that people are ACTUALLY suffering right now (as you read this).

She is amazing and brave💯🙌 Hope your man will keep up with you🙏 God bless the both of you💯🙏

I love your videos and thank you for this lesson. And I'm hoping you guys can maybe react to the rap artist DAX. I love his music and I would love to see you guys react to his music.

I forgot to mention, in the 1600s White Indentured Servants had a slight edge because they were Christian, Aficans and Indians were not. The 1669 Virginia law on the baptism of slaves - This law stipulated that baptism did not alter the legal status of a slave. Heres the law: "An act declaring that baptisme of slaves doth not exempt them from bondage" (1667) WHEREAS some doubts have risen whether children that are slaves by birth, and by the charity and piety of their owners made pertakers of the blessed sacrament of baptisme, should be vertue of their baptisme be made free; It is enacted and declared by this grand assembly, and the authority thereof, that the conferring of baptisme doth not alter the condition of the person as to his bondage or freedome; that diverse masters, freed from this doubt, may more carefully endeavor the propagation of christianity by permitting children, though slaves, or those of greater growth, if capable, to be admitted to that sacrament.

Thank you for educating your partner!

A part she didn’t add in is that the first slaves in America weren’t just Africans but also Caucasians and between the 17th-19th century the US had several thousands of white slaves. A historian named Alan Taylor explained how while in 1620 slaves in America where often called “indentured servants” that most where forcibly transported into their servitude and that the slaves brought through being “indentured servants” were often orphans or criminals (petty and high crime alike). Another fact is that the slaves sold to Europeans during the transatlantic slave trade were often already slaves to their sellers and often time where prisoners of war captured by different tribes. Additionally, once slavery was abolished there was a push to send the freed slaves and their descendants/families back to Africa But was met with backlash from abolitionists and black Americans as they believed it was on their best interest to stay in America and push for citizenship. And Britain and France tried to go by navy to stop the transatlantic slave trade. They were able to get Denmark to abolish I’m 1803, Portugal to restrict their colonial trade in 1810, Sweden agreed to abolish in 1813, Spain in 1820, Japan in 1590(official slavery was abolished), Canada 1834, Mexico 1829, Jamaica 1838(formal slavery abolished and in 1845 introduced indentured servants), Brazil 1888 so on and so forth

You should react to the british crusade against slavery

No race is without guilt. The reason why the black slave trade is so relevant today is because it's only been about 100-200 years since it was abolished so it is still pretty fresh. Maybe in a couple hundred years it won't be as relevant. Honestly we need to be more concerned with the gap between rich and poor is far too big.

Its the mentality and what is taught by parents. Usually you're told this by family and if they dont learn themselves it just because a cycle that gets passed down generation to generation until someone changes that mentality and research for themselves.

Someone led me to look into the Moors that went into Spain. No matter who the people they all were cut from the same stone. Look at Spain and the architecture, I think it brings a lot to the topic that got us to what we're normally focused on.

Ask who's pushing a certain narrative, follow money and control. For most people, staying dumb is a choice they've made. It's crazy how long the powers that be have got away with it and continue to.

What you now need to ask is *who* wants you to hold a grudge against the descendants of one particular group of people, who happen to have been the ones who formalized the end of slavery, and *why?* Who experienced the greatest loss from the end of global slave trades?

Your girl is speaking facts. Seems like he wants to keep his mentality.

I'm glad young people are exposed to Thomas Sowell. I consider him a hero... I'm not sure the guy here understands all that Sowell is talking about nor does he accept the parts he does understand. The young lady accepts the message and attempts to explain in a language younger people would understand

*how does anyone not know this* !?!

Subbed. Coz y’all like to learn 😎✌️

It’s part of the human history like most stuff is there’s very rarely things this big that come Down to one ethnicity or one group at all we all dabbled back in the day doing some fucked up shit but that helped us learn today to not recreate those times which we seem to be doing

I love this ❤ maybe we can finally all embrace each other regardless of skin colors in this incredible American experiment. Daniel Tosh has a great bit about America is the only country that has any real diversity. Look at the Olympics teams. Almost every other country have teams exclusively one race. Just check out the Chinese teams. They always have and always will be Chinese only teams. I'm not saying erase the past, but we all have to learn the same history or none of us will be standing on similar foundations. The past was f-ed up but if anything was changed, none of us would be where we are right now, for better or worse. If we dont know the past we are doomed to repeat it. Nothing gives me hope for the future like seeing 2 smart, young people taking time to check out the past.

The school you go to matters.

The race baiters keep bringing up slavery to keep you down

I have a couple of slaves in my lineage back in the 14th century (and also an 8th born daughter princess and a baron) and my husband can trace one branch of his family tree back to a concubine of August Caesar, so basically a sex slave. We are both completely white. Does any of it affect us? No. We pulled ourselves up by our bootstraps, put ourselves through school and worked hard to get where we are today. There was no poor me. It was just nose to the grindstone until we had a fairly comfy life. At least until the last three years hit. Now it is more like a barely comfy life.

Saudi Arabia is still one of the biggest and most profitable countries in the modern slave trade. In the end, SA is one of the most negatively impacting countries on the modern world.

I always thought it was weird how Black people say they are kings and Queens. However big and slim actually look the part 😂 .

Look at how many African slaves were brought to Central and South America and the Bahamas. "Estimations and Distribution: Total Numbers: Estimates suggest that about 12.5 million Africans were shipped across the Atlantic, with approximately 10.7 million surviving the journey. Central and South America: The vast majority of these individuals were brought to Portuguese and Spanish colonies in South America. Brazil alone received about 4.9 million enslaved Africans, making it the single largest destination in the Americas. The Caribbean: The Caribbean islands, including the Bahamas, also saw a large influx, receiving around 4 million Africans. Specific to the Bahamas, the numbers were considerably smaller given its size and economic structure at the time but still significant in the context of the local population."

My question has always been, who pays me and who do i pay? My white family owned my black family until in the 1830s those two groups became simply "family" then over the next century family added American Indians, more white and black people, then in 1934 another side of the family came LEGALLY from Mexico, and added more white and black folks to their mix.. So who do i pay? Who pays me? History is way more complex than skin tone.

If slaves are available for purchase, folks tend to get slaves.

Youre channel is awesome and so is Candace Owens. You should react to her testifying in front of Congress . They were trying to gaslight everyone about Candace Owens because her 5 minutes were up but a Congressman gave her his time.

In American history there was more than just black slaves. I believe the Irish were the first slaves in America. There was also a lot of Chinese slaves. The first black slave owner in America was black. Was slavery a horrible thing in our country - absolutely! But it wasn’t just a black thing yet as horrible as it was it also gave our country a very diverse population and variety of cultures mixed together and I love all our people. Our nation is truly a melting pot of great cultures from around the world and it is and will always be what makes us the greatest nation in the world.

Let it go bro!

NO country on this little blue dot we call home is blameless. No flag is pure this planet is dripping in blood.

Now I see why my comment got deleted. I did not see in the description that this history was provided by Candace Owens. If you don't toe the line your comment will get deleted.

@2:30 "I never thought about who ended slavery. I didn't know Britain was the first to do that." Technically, it wasn't. It's the first country THAT STILL EXISTS TODAY, to abolish slavery. Follow along here, if you read the Treaty of Paris (1783) which ended the American Revolutionary war, Britain released each of the 13 former colonies as a separate and independent country. So the thirteen colonies, are now each 13 separate countries. They ratified the US Constitution in 1789, forming the United States of America. By that time, eight of the thirteen had abolished slavery- and those eight, never re-instituted it. Haiti also had a slave revolt around that time, and abolished chattel slavery... but then instituted serfdom, which is a form of slavery.

Columbus wrote journal entries about how the natives would make great slaves

Unfortunately anger is at an extreme level these days, human history is filled with horror. In the States the suppression of the story has added fuel to the fire. Trying to push patriotism and trying to clean up the story & especially with suppressing of advancement by racism the anger boiled. We have to all know the past and all it ugliness as well as achievements to grow healthy. After Apartheid ended, they held Truth and Reconciliation Trials . All the the horror was outed ,it aloud the country to begin to move on .

Europeans among the different tribes enslaved each other for centuries.

Please give your reaction to Japanese boy group Number_i GOAT. please. The song is crazy and the music video is amazing.

Here's an interesting challenge: do some searches about the history of slavery on your favorite search engine. Do the majority of the results talk only about slavery in the USA? Do the majority of the results lean left or right? I suspect what you will find is that very, very few show the totality of slavery in the world and even how that translated to slaves being sold to the traders to come to the USA.

In my point of view..everyone has been a slave and or owner regardless of what their color or race etc etc was. Jesuits and Venetians. You own the trade route you own the people

Censorship is mind control.

Slavery is a HUMAN problem. As long as there have been humans, the strong have enslaved the weak. And people will say indentured servitude was not the same because you could theoretically earn your way out. True, IN THEORY. but the reality was often a lifetime of servitude because you were SUPPOSED to work for 7 years to pay for your passage to America. At the end of that time, your "owner" would say "you've paid for your passage, but I fed, clothed, and housed you for 7 years. You owe for that" ...people died in servitude, never able to work their way out because WHERE could they go to complain, to appeal? They came over from Europe, the deal was made THERE. Slavery has come under so many different names

Keep checking out Thomas Sowell. Candance gets a lot of her sources through him.

Look up thomas sowell talk about "Slavs". Slav is how the word "slave" started...we're still enslaved in Africa. We are the longest&most enslaved group. It's strange that ONLY America considers Slavs "white".

Yall Beautiful all the way around ❤

it seems like the guy is only doing this video because his girl told him too. He is sneak dissin the entire time. My advice to homegirl is this. Find someone that is constantly challenging his perspective. Men/Women with that ability are the only truly intelligent people.

To my knowledge, Korea had the longest-running slave trade at 1500 years total.

My ancestry is British. My ancestors were enslaved by Rome for 400+ years. I'm still waiting for my Maserati to be delivered. Probably not going to happen.

First one to abolish slavery was Republic of Ragusa today know as Dubrovnik located in Croatia. Yes it was a small republic but a pretty strong one for its size. So no British people where not the first this is wrong.

360,222 Union soldiers gave their lives to help end slavery

The arabian slave tarde was far worse and was going on years before and after it ended. The isalmic world still does slavery today yet its the country that ended it that receives the most criticism.

After the Civil War, slavery continued for some American blacks. Some Indian reservations inside America continued slavery. Look it up!

Beautiful couple love from Ireland

SURPRISE.

No such thing as ‘truthism’. Finding good (correct) information vs. opinions. Is where truth exists. Peace out ✌️ big fan of your work

I dunno what it is.. yet, you both are so darn cute together.. never stop loving and growing together.. Your journey together is helping others grow too.. In ways you may never know. Forehead kisses… now get back to work.! 🙏💞💞💪:.😁. Jc

My father was sold to a farmer in Oregon when he was 9 years old; my Grandmother, his mom, sold him... they arre white. Some will call it "indentured servant," my dad called it slavery. He had to sleep in the loft of the barn; he was not allowed in the house. He was beat daily. My grandfather found out about it 5 months later, (he thought my dad had run away from home). He went and got my dad back... Somehow, my dad forgave his mom, and many times helped his mom and dad when they didn't t have money or was losing their home. I get frustrated when I hear all the crap about reparations, institutionalized racism and all the other race baiting stuff being said; it is brainwashing by the deep-state and media. My Dad ended up becoming very successful with his own business and took very good care of my mom. So, there is not anyone keeping anyone "down," it is all about the perspective that an individual chooses to perceive.

All great the same people that started it ended it....there just good people...they try to praise them like who else was gone stop what they started

president of Uganda, told an audience including Bill Clinton: "African chiefs were the ones waging war on each other and capturing their own people and selling them. If anyone should apologise it should be the African chiefs. We still have those traitors here even today." However African modern Chiefs. "In my experience it's mainly the African diaspora who want an apology. People aren't milling around Lagos or Accra moaning about why chiefs don't apologise. They are more concerned about the everyday and why they still have bad governance." You should also KZfaq or google modern slavery in Libya, "Sub Saharan Slaves are often ransomed to their families and until ransom can be paid are tortured, forced to work, sometimes to death and eventually executed or left to starve if they can't pay for too long. Women are often raped and used as sex slaves and sold to brothels and private Libyan clients."

As a Canadian, your 13th Amendment makes me REALLY uncomfortable... To write a law that says "No more slavery" AND THEN include "except for..."

Everyone went through it , it’s just not everyone lives in the past and thinks about it . Great reaction you two sending love x

Slavery still exists its jist changed form now its not jist certain groups its every1

Check out Thomas Sowell

I Denmark we had white slaves. Actually every one poor before 1800 was a slave here.

Goodness, this woman is sweet as grape soda. ❤

That man looks so bored with these video reactions. It's almost like she forces him to watch.

There were also, black slave owners and white slaves... there's a lot more to the slave stories.

For me, as slavic man, it is almost funny listening about slavery in US. You have no idea...

You two should do a reaction video on getting your DNA results. You will be amazed what your find out. I know I was when we did ours.

I must say ma'am, you are stunning😍
