Will the descendants of the africans who participated in slave trade by selling their fellow men apologise?

Question

It wasn't only the white man who enriched themselves through this filthy trade, native africans did too by actually selling their own brethren.
Will their descendants apologise for the sins of their fathers?

Nika;
How on Earth did you get a rating as top contributor, I ask a question about slavery and you complain about my,correct spelling, of the word "apologising".
I am British and the word can be spelt with an "s" or a "z".
Did you get your rating by giving nonsense answers to lots and lots of questions you knew nothing about?

Answer 1

This apologising is ridiculous..what next..the Italians having to apologise for the Roman invasion or the Danes for the Vikings?

Answer 2

There is no doubt about it that African tribal chiefs connived with Arab slave traders in this vile trade and in a veiled sort of way it still goes on today. Yes!Africans living in Britain ought to stand up and apologise for the hand they openly played in this trade.

Answer 3

That's a very good point. The white colonials(the first ones were Spanish, I believe) did not invent slavery, they merely took advantage of a system that was already in place. The only people in the whole equation who got something for no investment at all were the primary slavers, who were... African. Let's not overlook the part warring tribes had to play.

Answer 4

During Slavery it was a horrible Expierience and no not all of it was exactly that way,When pirates traders man who landed in Africa also had Guns kidnapped and nets over Africans Heads and Raped and salt water on the Backs of African Slaves and the journey on the ship was not at all a pleasant expierience they shakled them like Dogs and placed them wherever they wanted when they land,you need to check back a bit more !!!and AMistad is also a good movie to watch!!!!

Answer 5

Good question--who sold the slaves to the white's in the first place? Intrested to see who will apologise!

Answer 6

You've raised a very valid point! I don't think it would happen at all. Just look at the state that some African countries are in now. the rulers of some nations are rich beyond belief yet there are still people fighting to survive every day. It disgusts me.

Answer 7

It has to end first. They, the African slave traders of yesterday and today, don't see any wrong in what they are doing or have done. It's money, a business to them and that's all that matters.

Answer 8

Of course not. Its only the whites who are forced to apologise in this world.

Wrong so wrong.

Answer 9

Why inquire about apologizing and you can't even spell it?

EDIT: Moon, leave me the hell alone!! You were asking crazy questions, so you know I had to get you! I'm from the South, too by the way...

Lurned1, who cares? I sure as hell don't--he has enough problems in his own country than to be worried about America. Plus, he is really rude in his other posts...

Barrie G,

When you write to an AMERICAN audience, you don't use BRITISH spelling...and it's wrong when you are addressing Americans because it's not in an AMERICAN dictionary, you dafty. You might want to pick one up one day. And why and how in the hell does slavery concern you? And you'd never be a top contributor because you waste your points on asking retarded questions such as this one, you prick...

Answer 10

I think (though I could be wrong) that would be nearly impossible to determine. Maybe if they knew, they would. Don't get your hopes up.
