Indentured White Servants Were Treated Worse than Black Slaves in the West Indies

[fillyboy]

Exactly. Left to their own devices these countries collapse into lawlessness and they all start machete-ing each other. The world's peoples are not all equally talented and cannot always help themselves and therefore need help from other countries. Britain is now at that point, thanks to gross mismanagement.

Rhodesia, the garden of Africa.

If we don't learn from the past, we're bound to repeat the same mistakes.
But you don't care, and refuse to learn from history.


Aren't we the lucky ones.
Unfortunately the descendants of slaves are still suffering from hardships endured by slaves in the past.

But you're alright, jack.

Correct, I am not worrying over the past as I live in the present

Doing not do good. Then you look at India. They are going to be a power house.

It's amazing how the world's previous largest economy has recovered after the devastation of the British rule and being ripped apart during partition to become merely a large economy.

Do you think they need to murder the white farmers a little faster?

Exactly. Left to their own devices these countries collapse into lawlessness and they all start machete-ing each other.

Like the whole of government institutions, the police had to undergo a complete transformation, from ground zero, with none or very few black police, to a force representative of the indigenous population:

It was defined by notions of white male supremacy and domination
The old South African Police (SAP) force was a deeply racist organisation that was at the forefront of enforcing apartheid’s immoral and discriminatory laws. It has been argued that apartheid and its policing were inextricably linked, in that ‘South African policing has not simply promoted an order that has devastated the lives of black South Africans, but has been an essential part of that order’(Brogden and Shearing, 1993, pp.15–16). With the birth of South African democracy in 1994, the police, as was the case with all state institutions, started undergoing a process of dramatic and fundamental reform.

Lawlessness did not begin in 1994:

The highest murder rates occurred in 1993, just before the democratic transition,
South Africa's murder rate increased steadily from the 1950s, peaking in 1993 at roughly 70–80+ murders per 100,000 people due to high political violence. While the rate was generally high, it saw a massive spike during the late 1980s and early 1990s, with over 25,000 murders recorded in 1993.

The current murder rate in South Africa is nearly half what it was at the end of Apartheid.
It was a country built on violence, usually violence against the Black people by the white minority.

Maybe there are parallels with Southern states of USA

Murder rates in the U.S. are highest in Southern and Midwestern cities, with top rates recorded in cities like New Orleans, Memphis, St. Louis, and Baltimore.

Perhaps @Vinty would like to pop in to apologise for his ancestors heinous trade?

This country also took on massive debts to compensate the slave owners affected

Didn't compensate the slaves though.

 

[Elsa TLC]

Didn't compensate the slaves though.

And they should have been back then. But any money now should be used to deal with modern slavery thats happening today.

Not 100s or 1000s of years ago. I wont be asking the Italians or the Scandinavians for anything.

 

[Vinty]

Those slaves would then be taken to the plantations and exchanged for raw materials that were taken to the hellish factories in England, where the malnourished, diseased and badly treated workers spent two thirds of their lives

So it wasn't really about race, it was all about money.
The haves and the have not.
Nothing has really changed then.

There was recently a "British" judge who was prosecuted for keeping a slave and she didn't even realise she was doing anything wrong

The judge in that case knew full well that what she was doing was wrong.
