Is the reverend using politics to support the Scriptures or Scriptures to support his politics?

The government did have those laws in those days...he isn't lying.

youtube Religious reaction to 9/11 attacks and listen to Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell say similar things about America.

I can´t help but say it: Cool story bro

Thank you Trinity for sharing this video. I have posted it on the Progressive Dems web site where I live. We never do get the truth on corporate TV. People have to search out the truth. Rev. Wright's sermons are thoughtful and provocative. I might attend church if we had a minister like him!

Blacks did sell other blacks into slavery. But they had to, or else they would have been pushed into slavery. It was survival of the fittest. The stronger tribed had to sell others inorder to save their own butts. Ryooken love your knowledge of history.

No, you are listening to a longer clip. This is not the entire sermon. The nonsesne that Africans willingly sold each other into slavery. Africans became trapped in a gun slave cycle. In 1567 John Hawkins entered into a fake alliance arming on side with guns he and 200 of his men capture with his allies 470people. Europeans created a gun slave cycle that made Africans desperate to survive while the Europeans armed both sides and taking humans for profit.

Funny how history tends to repeat itself. Currently we took over Iraq igniting a civil war that may last for generations. This is the same thing that Europeans from Europe and America did in Africa. In fact, if you look at the root causes of these conflicts you will usually find a European or American agent somewhere started problems.

Very nice my rebuttlewatch?v=uI4WS2Rak9Q

Yep wars created by Europe. It's interesting that history tends to repeat itself. We attacked Iraq igniting a civli war that may go on for generations but you all forget that Europeans whether they be from Eruope or America ignited wars in Africa that have spread and gone on for centuries. Pitting one dictator against another in order to steal the wealth of Africa.

Thank you for sharing this with us. The only version I saw was cut and deceitful.Good video! 10 stars**********

very true

Look in your inbox.

I under stand American history and you're wrong.

You're not understanding my friend, these are not two different occasions. The slaves that were brought to the new world, not only america, for the French, British, Spanish, Dutch, and later american empires, were FIRST captured and enslaved BY Africans who were from a rival tribe/state, before they were sold to Europeans and then transported to the americas. Europeans didn't go on hunting trips in africa for slaves. Slaves were SOLD to them BY other Africans in coastal ports of Africa.

not on the scale of america so don't even try that

"There were also Africans who had made a business out of capturing other Africans and selling them." (Thornton, 310)

"Europeans usually bought enslaved people who were captured in endemic warfare between African states"-Thornton, John. Africa and Africans in the Making of the Atlantic World, 1400-1800.Cambridge University Press, 1992 I could give you more documented evidence, but this is well accepted historical fact.

I did listen to the whole sermon, what did I say that is nonsense?

Why don't you listen or read the entire sermon before you talk such nonsense??
