July 5, 20223 yr The "roots" of critical race theory. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavery_in_Africa Many nations such as the Bono State, Ashanti of present-day Ghana and the Yoruba of present-day Nigeria were involved in slave-trading.[45] Groups such as the Imbangala of Angola and the Nyamwezi of Tanzania would serve as intermediaries or roving bands, waging war on African states to capture people for export as slaves.[46] Historians John Thornton and Linda Heywood of Boston University have estimated that of the Africans captured and then sold as slaves to the New World in the Atlantic slave trade,[47] around 90% were enslaved by fellow Africans who sold them to European traders.[48] Henry Louis Gates, the Harvard Chair of African and African American Studies, has stated that "without complex business partnerships between African elites and European traders and commercial agents,[49] the slave trade to the New World would have been impossible, at least on the scale it occurred."

Makes sense from a survival standpoint. If I lived on the coast heyal yes I'm dipping into the interior to kidnap somebody to hand over when I see the ships coming. I don't think this has anything to do with CRT though.

There's nothing wrong with teaching what actually happened, as long as you teach the WHOLE STORY and not just choose selective portions that suit your "eternal victim" agenda.

History is nothing but selected portions. Always. I have no agenda with history, other than I like history. People afraid to call slavery, 'slavery' have an agenda.
