Forgotten History - who was the first man to own slaves in Colonial America
- Thread starter BillytheC
- Start date
And the first slaves in what would become America were white.
This is why @RayGravesGhost race-baiting is garbage. I ignore it almost as well as @JasonHigdon does.

LOL.
Anthony Johnson arrived in the new world in 1621 as an African captive. So that's clearly horseshit.
Now his court case against a guy named Parker over an indentured servant named Casor set precedent in Virginia and then the US in slavery but that's not the same thing now is it.

Two perfect proofs of why American History needs to be taught accrurately...
Not only was Anthony Johnson NOT a slave....he wasn't the first slave owner either
Hugh Gwyn
Thus, Hugh Gwyn, the man who owned John Punch, would be the first recognized slaveholder, eliminating the spurious claim that a Black man innovated the North American system. Punch's experience certainly foreshadowed legal maneuvers in the 18th century.Jul 22, 2019
John Punch becoming a slave when the other two escapees were white and not enslaved served as a pretext for racial slavery.
See?
All the way back to the beginning of the colonies white privilege finds its roots in treating black people differently based on race...for the economic benefit of his white owner
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Punch_(slave)
Other historians have also emphasized the importance of this court decision as being one to establish a legal acceptance for slavery. John Donoghue said, "This can be interpreted as the first legal sanctioning of lifelong slavery in the Chesapeake."[29] Historians consider this difference in penalties to mark the case as one of the first to make a racial distinction between black and white indentured servants.[22][30] Tom Costa in his article, "Runaway Slaves and Servants in Colonial Virginia" says, "Scholars have argued that this decision represents the first legal distinction between Europeans and Africans to be made by Virginia courts."[31]

Significance[edit]
In his A Biographical History of Blacks in America since 1528 (1971), Toppin explains the importance of Punch's case in the legal history of Virginia:The National Park Service, in a history of Jamestown, notes that while it was a "customary practice to hold some Negroes in a form of life service," Punch was the "first documented slave for life."[28]

Two fools desperately in need of some AP African American history...
Maybe you should go cry to Jason and cry about being told the truth some more... 😢
It would surprise me....mainly because it wasn't it 🤣
Wrong. Indentured servants were not slaves and they were not only white anyway 😂

RGG- I will stick with my poSt over ANY BULLCHIT YOU TRY TO PUT FORTH
Nothing like clinging to a false telling of history to try to justify white people's role in it and blame blacks
Another glaring example of the term that offends conservative crybabies here...
That attitude towards facts should help you in DeSantis's history class 🤣
Of course. You Trumpers are never one to let facts get in the way.
But if your ignorance makes you feel better.....
White Christians ended slavery in England.
White Christians ended slavery in America.
Rat's of all races,,, are attempting to end White Christians everywhere....

They also were who started it in England

Why do "conservative" trump supporters always deal in lies?

hahahaha rg- you libs and your prez are the biggest effin liars out there
There's plenty of goodies in the Pedo Hitler thread. Oddly, I don't see any "ignored poster" notifications there. 😂
Without God and Christians of all races, Slavery would already rule worldwide today.
Evil and it's minions are working overtime to bring us all back to slavery.
Pick a side and then get to work....

The confederate North American "Christians" foughta war to keep slavery alive...
The South African "Christians" kept it alive into the 20th century
Does everyone clearly see the need for an accurate history curriculum in high school now? 🤣
Plenty of good ones in this thread. Quite amusing that the race baiters got upset that @BillytheC told the truth about slavery's origins in this country.

The Civil War did not begin over slavery, but over Northern taxation of the South.
The Confederate Congress attempted to end slavery before the Northern Congress did. Missed it by a close vote.
The evil of Slavery was already on the way out in America, before the War of Northern Aggression began.
When the Civil War ended, how long was it before the North finally ended slavery? Emancimation Proclamation?
Every Confederate state had black slave owners.
How has S.Africa progressed since the change in government?
Why did you not mention the history of Liberia?
The American War of Northern Aggression was from April 12, 1861 – May 26, 1865;
Emancipation Proclamation
The Emancipation Proclamation, officially Proclamation 95, was a presidential proclamation and executive order issued by United States President Abraham Lincoln on January 1, 1863, as the nation approached its third year of bloody civil war. When the North looked to be losing the war, Lincoln decided to use slavery to alter the outcome.
Congress passed the amendment on January 31, 1865, was ratified by the required 27 of the then 36 states on December 6, 1865, and was proclaimed on December 18, 1865.
In summary:
War began April 12, 1861.
Emancipation Proclamation didn't happen until January 1, 1863.
The War ended May 26, 1865.
Slavery in America ended by vote of the Northern Congress on December 18, 1865.
At the start of the War, not a single Republican owned a slave, they were all Demon-RATS, North and South. And the Rats are the one's today that want to return us to Socialist/Marxist slavery.
Do we continue to trust the Socialist Teacher's Unions to do the education of our youth, or trust the RGG to give us the unaltered reality???
Ephesians 6:5-9
New International Version
5 Slaves, obey your earthly masters with respect and fear, and with sincerity of heart,just as you would obey Christ. 6 Obey them not only to win their favor when their eye is on you, but as slaves of Christ, doing the will of God from your heart. 7 Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not people,8 because you know that the Lord will reward each one for whatever good they do, whether they are slave or free.9 And masters, treat your slaves in the same way. Do not threaten them, since you know that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and there is no favoritism with him.
Whether or not it began over slavery (which it did) the confederacy wanted to keep the institution of black slavery so saying white Christians ended it doesn't really tell the whole story does it?
SOME white christians called wanted to abolish slavery...a whole group of sucessionist white Christians did not
Yeah when they got desperate and it was apparent they would lose the war
They needed bodies and offered freedom if you enlisted in the confederate army
This ain't horseshoes...being close don't count
🤣 Does it make you feel better about your heritage to lie to yourself? 🤣
What does any of that jibberish have to do with anything?
Methinks Insta has been triggered... LOL 😂
Exactly what are you arguing for here? Do you even know? 😂
If you think not having your freedom is so great...how bout you become the slave for the nrxt 400 years and let's see how you feel about it then, OK? 🤣
I know when you really triggered you usually start spouting soverign citizen stuff...
So I suspect your just too dumb to realize the truth 🤣
Let's just destroy your main lie here...I'll use one of your "heroes" Larry "Lying" Elder 😲

"Republicans did not own slaves. Democrats owned slaves."
The claim that Republicans did not own slaves is false, and Elder corrected the record on Twitter the next day.
"Republicans were obviously the party of abolition, but there were in fact Republicans who owned slaves," Kruse told us.
Francis P. Blair, one of the Republican Party’s founders, owned slaves while he presided over the 1856 Republican convention and was a delegate in 1860, Kruse said.
Benjamin Burton, who served twice as a state legislator in Delaware under the Whig party before becoming a Republican later in life, also owned slaves, according to his obituary. In fact, his 28 slaves made him Delaware’s leading slave-owner.
Blair and Burton were not the only two. After conservative filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza made a similar claim on Twitter, Kruse and other historians on Twitter identified eight more prominent Republicans who also owned slaves in 1860.
Piecemeal from thousands of years ago, disregarding the context of then.
I don't remember slavery being mentioned in the 10 Commandments.
"Do unto others, as you would have them do unto you.'
(seems to me that would end slavery all by itself)

So why didn't white Christians listen?
I guess making a buck off the back of blacks for free overrode their religious beliefs
Irish Slaves: The Secret Past That History Books Will Never Tell You

"In the 17th century, more Irish slaves were sold than black slaves, and they had almost 50% death rate, yet this information has been covered up for centuries and scrubbed from the history books.
These "lost slaves" have been conveniently forgotten and will never be taught in school history class.
During Easter of 1619, four months before the first shipment of Black slaves arrived, the first slaves to be imported into the American colonies were 100 white children."

From your own link...
Radio2hot reports: Mainstream histories refer to these laborers as indentured servants, not slaves because many agreed to work for a set period of time in exchange for land and rights.
There were white slaves too so that makes it OK? What kind of ignorant shit is that?
Owning people is always bad. Full stop.

Everyone (that's not evil) agrees that slavery in any and all of it's conditions is evil.

Was good money if you could get it back then! And slavery was NOT evil back hen..it was the norm. I LOVE when holier than thou people like to pick times in history and call things...EVIL...when it was just the way it was then. Friggin snowflakes.
The vast majority of black slaves in America were captured and forced into slavery by blacks in Africa.
Another inconvenient truth for the race baiters.
Says the white guy who wasn't subjected to slavery...seriously you can't make this stuff up 🤣
Like I said...if it was so good...Why don't we make you a slave for the rest of your life?
Wanna signup?
So that absolves whites for practicing the institution of slavery in America?
That's like the fentanyl dealer in America saying he hasn't done anything bad because it comes from China
BTW - Nobody is giving anyone a pass...show me the African governments who participated and they should be held accountable too.
Just wondering how Ghana is going to pay reparations? I heard they are a quite poor country?
And the race-baiters avoid the history of Liberia like the plague....
Liberia is a country in West Africa founded by freed people of color from the United States. The emigration of African Americans, both free and recently emancipated, was funded and organized by the American Colonization Society (ACS). The mortality rate of these settlers was the highest among settlements reported with modern record keeping.
Slave states in North America, increasingly interested in getting rid of their free African-American populations, encouraged the formation of colonization societies. These groups organized themselves independently of the ACS and founded their own colonies in Liberia for transplanting freed Africans.
===========
True Freedom is not FREE, and it never has been....
And we are never further away from slavery than one generation.
The Democrats were in charge of slavery. Once blacks were freed, the same Demo-rats formed the KKK in an attempt to continue to deprive them of freedom. And today, those same Rats are running the DC swamp....
The freed Blacks Government in Libera still had slavery until 2010. And places in Black run Africa still has slave markets today....

Who here has attempted to absolve slaver in America, or anywhere else???
Are you a moron, or just the usual Rat race-baiter attempting distraction instead of addressing the facts of slavery and who was responsible for starting it or for ending it?
Who? ron & malone...racist revisionists and proud of it
The country & government of Ghana began its existence in 1957 🤣
March 6, 1957
On 6 March 1957 at midnight, the Gold Coast, Ashanti, the Northern Territories, and British Togoland were unified as one single independent dominion within the British Commonwealth under the name Ghana.
