The Realities of Enslaved Female Africans in America
 
http://academic.udayton.edu/race/05i...ender/rape.htm


Colonial laws regarding statutory rape were not applied to Blacks and Indians. Indians and Blacks, as well as their children, were prohibited by law from defending themselves against abuse, sexual and otherwise, at the hands of Whites. A slave who defended herself against the attack of a White person was subject to cruel beatings by either the master or mistress. Liaisons between Whites and Blacks or Indians were illegal. The females of color received the harshest punishment if discovered in a liaison with a White male. Females of color, regardless of their young age, were viewed as seducers of White men. Pregnancy became the evidence of the illegal liaison. A mulatto baby the indicator of the race of the father - White male. The child, by statute took the status of the mother and is thus born into slavery. The full benefit of the relationship and the off-spring enured to the White male. Under English precedent, the status of children was determined by the father. The colonists changed the law to increase the wealth and domination of the White master who had eliminated certain costs of purchasing human labor by becoming "a breeder of slaves." The Black female, woman or child, was forced into sexual relationships for the White slave master’s pleasure and profit.

White and African abolitionists condemned slavery but often for very different reasons. White abolitionists in Massachusetts in 1712 condemned slavery, not for its diabolical construct, but because the Certain Whites argued for the importation of more White servants and an end to slavery because African slaves were having a negative effect on White servants. The plight of Black and Indian girls sexually abused by their White Masters was a known "secret" of slavery. The girls, their plight ignored, unprotected by law or policy, persevered in silence. Even if the girls acquiesced, consent assumes a right of refusal. Although the institution of slavery remained, the 1807 Foreign Slave Trade Bill proposed the ending of the trafficking of African human deeming it to be "contrary to the principles of justice humanity and sound policy." It was not a decision based solely on altruism. The drastic drop in profits, a surplus supply of sugar, a fear of continued slave rebellions, in addition to the pressure of abolitionists, led England to abolish its role in the slave trade. The real deal.

Okay, so what is the purpose of this thread?

Do you expect us to apologise for things that happened centuries before we were born, simply because we are white?

To make you feel bad... until you realize something called human nature exists.

Do you expect us to apologise for things that happened centuries before we were born, simply because we are white? I'd take a step further than Game usually takes it and see how the laws were actually applied.

We had a good thing going until those White abolitionists started yammering.

Abolitionist also did purely for the money they were a lobby group, Slavery depressed wages and was more expensive than the machines being introduced. I doubt the did it out of the kindness of their heart.

Many abolitionists were sincere Christians. Perhaps if you took the time to learn about abolitionism you'd know the importance religion played in their lives.

Sincere Christians also enslaved, perhaps they were the most sincere, the papacy was itself a major slave owner bear in mind Christianity with its ham theory was then pro-slavery. Why did they wait all that long until the cusp industrial revolution to feel the sudden sympathy.

This is why first region or countries to industrialize was the first to abolish slavery, a more profitable option is found an it undercuts the competition, no altruism.

Precisely, there was money to be made, all lobbyists are mercenary. In this case funded by those who would profit when industry replaced agrarian, make no mistake if it was more profitable to have slavery it would have continued and the Abolitionist would still be waiting fro resources to feel sympathy.

In Africa, Blacks fought between them. The stronger tribe made the weaker their prisoners, and afterwards they sold them like slaves to Europeans/Americans in exchange for another thing.

I'm tired of that "black victimism".

Besides, the IQ of Blacks is lower than Whites:

http://www.amfirstbooks.com/IntroPag...aph_racial.jpg

... so I'm wondering whether they are capable of giving birth to some Galileo, some Newton or some Lavoisier. Since I know, they only can do mechanical jobs...

By the way, slavery dissapeared because one industrial worker with the steam machine made products and services faster and cheaper than 20 Blacks. It was an economical fact...

I don't know. What I know is we women have a shorter Gaussian than you men. We have less chances to be birth stupid, but less chances to be birth intelligent. That's the reason why there are more scientist men than women.

There is a certain amount of glory in buying your ancestors from fellow Blacks and then deciding to give them freedom only to have you generations later bitch and cry about it as if slavery hasn't always been part of everyone's history.

The glory comes from you being mad and hanging off our balls. You don't want to be an equal. You want the moral outrage that comes from being less.

This is humorous. The abolitionist movement was a Protestant movement. You show your ignorance of the subject.

This is why first region or countries to industrialize was the first to abolish slavery, a more profitable option is found an it undercuts the competition, no altruism. How many Black slaves lived in England? A handful. Jamaica and Barbados is where England had its slave population. Ending the slave trade would not benefit White Jamaican landowners. Recall that slavery still existed in the South of the US fifty years after the English put an end to it in their own domains. Obviously White southerners weren't interested in the Industrial Revolution beyond selling cotton to the English. You know.. cotton... which can be used to make stuff in factories that popped up in cities in the UK because of the Industrial Revolution.

Slaves worked at plantations, "they picked cotton".

They didn't make fabrics or other industrial products that were produced by utilizing the steam engine.

In some casese there coudl be a possibility of an economical agenda on it, but on others there wouldn't

Look cracker, I don't have the time to do these long drawn out back forth posts of useless BS, you crackers like celebrating your 4th of Julys, and Thanksgivings, fake holidays and want the whole country to ignore its bloody history towards nonwhites, take the bitter with the sweet and STHU.

I don't understand something...

Indians complained about "strangers" entering into their lands, and that's supposed to be okay. However, right now, Europeans like Marine Le Pen who complain about "strangers" entering into their lands are called racist!!

So in another words: Stupid people have to be slaves for intelligent people. Is that what you want to say or why did you mention this 'fact'. The mean and hateful intention behind your post is palpable.

By the way: Social studys are always made by certain 'reseachers' who are following a certain agenda. Therefore IQ-Test are subjective and useless. Never trust any statistic you've not faked for yourself.
And an IQ-Test collects data regarding 'intelligence' like one single breath of air absorbs oxygen in an oversized room full of oxygen.
'Intelligence' is incomprehensible, not ascertainable.
