Racism a History - The Colour of Money Part 1/6

This episode examines to what extent racism is a product of 17th century economic globalisation. With the huge profits of racism fuelling the slave trade, justification for racism was emphasised by generalisations of the inferiority of non-white Europeans. This was challenged during the Age Of Enlightenment during the 18th century, as well as by slaves themselves, particularly the Black Jacobins of Haiti in the 1790's who, spurred on by the French Revolution, campaigned for their rights and defeated their French masters as well as British invaders.

To Analagous:Having said that I am very open minded to what other people think about the matter. Why in your opinion blacks in every country they happen to reside in are the least successful racial group? Before I am called a racist I must point out that it is not racism as I hate stupid people of all races. It just so happens that blacks constitute a large chunk of the dimwit populace of this planet.

"On an individual basis, racial assumptions quickly break down."Of course they do. In my opinion blacks have lower IQ on average. I do not deny there are well educated and intelligent blacks out there but the percentage of intelligent blacks is far lower for some reason than most other races. Again not all black people are dimwit losers some are very smart but because the dumb ones outnumber the smart ones by a huge margin the average IQ for blacks is very low.

Neither IQ or race are true biological constructs. Both phenotypical traits (what you might call race) and mental capacity to incorporate/acquire new knowledge (what you might call IQ) result from a combination of environment, conditioning and physiology. The concept of race and applying personality, intelligence and behavioral traits to race are relatively recent phenomena (in historic terms). On an individual basis, racial assumptions quickly break down. I'm Honest. Just look into it a bit.

"Now when you say that blacks are a weak race you must dont know how to read english"Yes you are right producerbigsouth "I must dont know how to read english". Man you were freed 200 years ago and you still have not got the hang of the ENGLISH language. DO NOT SCHOOL ME BOY. I do not give a flying fuck if white genes are recessive. Oriental genes are recessive as well but they are arguably the smartest people on the planet.Go ahead claim superiority to Asians as well. It is nice to pretend.

To producerbigsouth"Next time dont be a coward reklezstoner if you have a respone to what I say reply to me so I can respond to it."First of all I do not understand the correlation between my preference of communication and weakness of character. It is astounding to learn that black people are superior to other races. Blacks have lower IQ than most other races. Blacks educational attainment is by far the worse in the USA and Europe. Asians,Whites and other races do much better academically.

Next time dont be a coward reklezstoner if you have a respone to what I say reply to me so I can respond to it. Dont send a text response so I cant respond to it.Now when you say that blacks are a weak race you must dont know how to read english when I say genetics I am talking ablout race mixing you dickhead. Being slaves have nothing to do with weak genes whites genes are recessive blacks are dominant. Look at lenny kravitz if he didnt tell you he had a white father you would never know.

hiroller56 (August 6, 2008 at 12:19 am)
it is all a trick of Satan..we are not seperate in this..whites whoenslaved went to hell if they didnt repent, and blacks who feel into hatred went there too. we eed to accept that this argument is simply love vs. hate. The Lord Jesus vs lucifer. Dont believe the racism hype

As i thought not to well researched. But at least you gave it a go. Try looking up Mansa musa, Zulu or even Timbuktu guess where they were. Their are more pyramids in the Sudan than in eygpt and guess what the word Nubian means (black). Your so called arab north is really muslim north and islam is a faith of people not a race of people. Guess you should go back to your books. Slavery WAS color blind until Eueopians made IT about colour.
