How does it feel to be an afro-american knowing you decended from slaves?

Question

Hi, just wandering how it must feel to be an afro-american knowing that you decended from slaves who were tortured by white people,and they were froced to leave africa to serve white americans, nowa days blackies tend to cuss white people and take the piss but they came from slaves, i feel sorry for them, you can always tell who did and didn't decend from slaves. A black american with an american name, theres a good chance he decended from slaves, when they were granted freedom, they were given american names like Smith, Johnson, Carter etc. How does it feel?

Answer 1

If you want to be racist, I suggest you google:

"Neo-Nazi" + Forum

and go to somewhere that people might actually want to hear your opinion.

Answer 2

In colonial days when the Brits were buying slaves in West Africa they would pay the indigenous Africans that lived by the coast good money for slaves brought in from the interior (i.e. from the jungle). The British colonial rulers thought the jungle too dangerous and unpleasant to venture there themselves and they could sell the slaves on for 5 times what they originally payed for them in the first place.
Just think how it would feel if you are black and your forefathers were those that sold their own people to the white men as slaves.

Answer 3

Not all black people are descended from slaves.

Many people immigrated from Africa by their own choice in the same way that white or Asian people have moved around the globe, and their ancestors were never enslaved by other black tribes or white people.

Some African people who were enslaved were originally prisoners-of-war as a consequence of tribal disputes between African tribes. They were imprisoned, in servitude to, or sometimes disposed of by the conquering tribe. As the European-created 'market' for slaves grew, these unfortunates were sold to the Americans/Europeans by their African captors for agreed prices. The enslaved were terribly unfortunate, but I think their descendants have much to be proud of in the way they coped and endured when so much was out of their control.

Just like anyone else, people descended from Africans would prefer non-prejudice than pity.

I'm white, but my own ancestors were tossed out of Europe and spent generations in America being exploited and doing all the backbreaking labour of no reward that uneducated newly-immigrated poor people tend to have to do. They had to Americanise their surname too. But I certainly don't feel as if anyone today owes me anything for that, least of all pity.

Answer 4

i'm an english man - totally white i might add- but i've got black and indigenous american indian ancestors some of whom where slaves some not and i'm really excited to know that, its interesting . most people alive today will have ancestors of varying backgrounds and races but just dont know about it, i myself only just found out . i think that probably you are just trying to wind people up here and create racial tension - why would you do that ? racisms is so small minded and ignorant -thats a fact- so talking about how does it feel - how does it feel to be small minded and ignorant?i think americans are more racist than british people why is that i wonder?

Answer 5

Please cracker! While black civilization was thriving in Africa, whites were living in caves beating each other up over the head and being cannibals. You have nothing to be proud of because your race has shown itself to be corrupted, immoral and barbaric. No other race in the world is hated more than whites. I'd rather be black any day of the week and have melanin in my skin to make it beautiful and knowing that I come from kings and queens. And like someone else said, your race is dying. You carry a recessive gene and when you mate with any other races, you are essentially killing your genes and your race. Your race will be extinct in about 100 years.

Answer 6

This sounds like a trap, wondering what you expect from those that decended from slaves and those that do not have names given them by their owners, It isn't as if they never married as offspring of slaves.

Answer 7

well, like we come a long way ,taking care of lazy white people and raising thier children, so why is there racism, white men been ******* black women from day1, thats how they picked their slaves, the ones they wanted to **** ,were the ones they picked for slaves ok

Answer 8

uummm . blacks are decendants of kings and queens my ignorant freind so when you see a black decendant of a king passing your way bow down and worship him when you see my black nubain princess gracefully striding down your racist street whith her head held high she is not shackald whith your steroetype image of her but she is truly liberated in the glory of knowing that she is a decendant of kings and queens so you racist son of a former slave owner whom have treid to keep blackpeople under constant oppression i am no decendant of a slave yes my for fathers might have been kept in bondage through your system but look at how we have risen look at the names of the ones who your fathers treid to keep back but have risen from mental slavery. martin luther king , you have a street in every city of the world named after this decendant of a king (look at the name )you perhaps ride on his street in you very own town or trialer park community. condolleca rice the names can go on forever the very same peanut butter that you recieved this month from your food stamps was invented by a king. a black king . so how does it feel it feels great to no that we were kings sold into a racist divide called slavery and are now back as kings now thats what i call a come back . now give me a bit of your history and from whence you decended stable boy.

Answer 9

How does it feel to be white, knowing that no one of any other race likes you. Knowing that because of the actions of your ancestors all races are united, all races share the same thing oppression by the white man which leads to nothing but hatred for them. How does it feel to know that your children are going to grow up in a world where people are going to say ewww shes white she must be a racist. ROTFL.


See white people are a dying species.
