All these 'black' Americans with skin as light as mine surprised they have white ancestory?
What a bullshit , omg. My Heritage is just a scam. How can you say, they could find your encestors just with your name ?? lol . Stop promote scam dude.
Ok Sonny start writing out the checks! You need to pay reparations!!!
Did any slave get r@pped? I’m not in favour of reparations that African Americans are fighting for but a lot slaves experience being forced to sleep with master on the plantation.
Americans think they "invented" the slavery
quelle famille de goat !
(((white)))
Bro, I laughed all the way through the video.
Have you ever seen the Keye and Peele slave auction skit? Pretty funny stuff.
Sonny is only claiming the Black card and/or racist card because that is what is "in" now and that's what generates money now and that is what she is paid for
Lmao you really not seeing the big pictures ! This only shows what most people already know! Your point is mute bro! Most African people are mixed in the western world !
Sunny: "I'm also a jew"
*crowds going wild and applaud for the one drop of jewish dye that dissolved in a glass of orange juice and no one can see! 😅😅😅😅😅😅
Fake liberal elite politics. She should be more upset that Puerto Rico doesn't have statehood and that her cohort live as a present-day colonized people despite being US citizens
I have European ancestry. I am Asian anyways but I got more offended if someone called me Chinese because I am not due to me being an indigenous tribe in Borneo that was mix with Dutch and British mainly Scottish and Welsh due to their surnames and military service in the Blackwatch is a good pointer.
This video explain exactly how wrong is American culture right now.
Se-phar-dic not Sepheradic!
wow, ur videos are totally shit xdd
Not as Black and White as they think is it ?! Thats why any reparstions should only be given to those who can scientifically prove their ancestors were slaves .
WHY you continues saiyng spanish colonies, you for shure know virrenaitos right, just took a look of Lima, buenos aires,mexico df,cartagena de indias, santiago de chile,bogota,la paz, look the churchs,the buildings, the downtonws of these cities, look inside the cathedrals were the gold is everywhere , tone of Universities(12/1555), Hospitals for everyone,no care about ethnic diferences,all those people were sons of god aswell, look how spainards leave puertorico, 1985 top advanced islands of the world on infrastructures, and everything, at 1500ys, everybody in spain likes to travel to new parts of the crown cause the kings were investing lots more money than the peninsula,virrenaitos were the best pleace to live in that centuries compared the rest fo the world.
I mean if you go back a few hundred years you have dozens and dozens of ancestors so everyone got people they related to that they wouldnt like. I dont understand why they care so much they have slave owning ancestors. Seems to me that they only think of things on a serface level.
Cuba, Puerto Rico y Filipinas nunca fueron colonias, jurídicamente tenían el estatuto de provincias en el siglo XIX.
You’re coping. This vvoman is nonwhite
My mom identified as black for race but hispanic for ethnicity but her race is white, she's European, has blonde hair, light skin, blue eyes 🤦♂️ whut?! punch line for stand up comedy
It will interesting to see bengavir and Netenyahou’s DNA
The only misconception in this video is that it fails to understand that most of the American territories in possession of Spain were not colonies but viceroyalties, which are very different in fact. It’s like calling all the western United States a colony. Social development and administration are key to understanding this distinction. Additionally, the Viceroyalty of New Spain lasted from 1535 to 1821, which is longer than the existence of the United States or Mexico as nations.
Wonder how many have both black slave trader and white slave trader genes?
The premise of your argument, and of this video, is inherently flawed. I don't know anything about this woman, but you seem to be analyzing history with ideological blinders on and ignoring contextual evidence in order to support your argument. Do you believe that a slave-owner can have a consensual relationship with a girl or woman who is legally considered his property? And if so, how can somebody give consent if they are unable to refuse an order from their owner? Trendy political videos may grow your audience and inspire a reaction, but they are hardly the domain of serious people looking for informative content. Remember Dante, "opinion—hasty—often can incline to the wrong side, and then affection for one's own opinion binds, confines the mind".

The first Jewish senators were slaveowners. How should we reckon with their legacy?

After the Washington Post released the first complete accounting of members of Congress who owned enslaved people, the Forward ran all nine Jews who entered Congress before the ratification of the Thirteenth Amendment, which abolished slavery, through the database.
What we found: Only two Jews on the list of more than 1,700 congresspeople — David Levy Yulee, who eventually converted to Episcopalianism, and Judah P. Benjamin — were enslavers. While many of the lawmakers in the Post’s database, which draws on thousands of pages of census records and historical documents, have not been publicly acknowledged as enslavers, Yulee and Benjamin’s history of enslaving has long been well known.
But as the country grapples with tensions over the history of racism, historians say it’s still worth re-examining their legacy.
Why Are There No Statues Of Jewish Confederate Judah Benjamin To Tear Down?
Yulee and Benjamin’s history isn’t a surprise, said Michael Hoberman, an English studies professor at Fitchburg State University who is currently writing a book about how early American Jewish history is remembered today. But, he said, it’s a reminder that “many Southern Jews owned slaves, just like any other wealthy Southern family did.”
The majority of Southern Jews owned enslaved people, mostly in their homes. A few, like Benjamin, who served as a senator from Louisiana between 1853 and 1861, ran plantations that exploited the labor of enslaved people. Benjamin, who operated a 300-acre sugarcane plantation, owned at one point as many as 140 enslaved people.
Yulee, who was the first Jewish senator, represented Florida from 1845 to 1851 and 1855 to 1861, and over the course of his life enslaved more than 1,000 people. He was known as the “Florida Fire-Eater” — the latter term referring to pro-slavery Democrats who supported secession before the Civil War.
Yet it is only recently, historically, that the public has begun to contend with the fact that the two Jewish lawmakers were enslavers.
For instance, it was only in June of 2020 that a plaque in Charlotte, N.C. dedicated to Benjamin and paid for by two synagogues was removed. Hoberman mentioned that Benjamin, who held multiple significant posts in the Confederate government, was for a long time romanticized both by Southern Jews and in popular literature. One example: famed writer Viña Delmar’s 1956 novel “Beloved,” which celebrated Benjamin’s tireless devotion, including to Louisiana’s political interests, the Confederacy’s success and, most of all, his marriage to his wife — while failing to account for his dedicated advocacy for slavery and his ownership of enslaved people.
And while the plaque honoring Benjamin was removed during the nationwide movement to remove statues of Confederate figures that surged during the racial justice protests of 2020, a statue of Yulee, who also became a leader in the Confederacy, remains standing in the small northern Florida town of Fernandina Beach.
1:36 it was black soldiers 👺🤣🤣🤣🐆🐆🐆 Goofy
I just cannot wait for her 'friends' to start calling her a hypocrite colonialist: "It is easy for you to act like an activist with all your family money behind you!"
Me encanta tu toque irónico. Y tu gran conocimiento histórico. Por cierto es normal que los descendientes de ibericos tengan ADN italiano… fuimos parte del imperio romano durante siete siglos. Incluso tres grandes emperadores romanos nacieron en Hispania.
19th century, seriously?
I am engaged in restoring family trees and my personal record is 1570. Moreover, this is not a note somewhere, but verified data from three sources.
Most often, genealogies end in the mid-18th century and only because, thanks to the fact that the United States financed Hitler (Especially Ford and Disney), a huge number of birth records were lost.
But the most important thing. Drawing conclusions based on an entry in a newspaper is a little (to put it mildly) unreasonable.
And by the way, about the birth of your ancestor without a father. I sympathize with you with all my heart. There are many reasons for such a record to appear, and none of them boded well for your ancestor. But this happens not only in the USA, but also in the EU, and even Russia
I am Russian, in my country there were only white slaves with white masters! To whom should I complain and about whom?!!
Чем больше я смотрю на жизнь в США тем больше рад что не живу в этой стране. Без обид но США обреченна на вымирание от рук собственных граждан
