More than 1.3 million slaves were moved on Liverpool-built ships; ‘probably the greatest memorial to British involvement in slaving’ The Black Lives Matter movement is prying open yet another chapter in Liverpool’s struggle to deal with its role in the slave trade.
These protests are no longer “peaceful” & no longer about black lives. Why are will still supporting BLM? Considering Marx’s views on blacks, Hispanics, and Jews, how could anyone demand racial justice and advocate equality when their ideas emanate from the mind of Karl Marx?
Many races were slaves, it's part of history. Why did they overcome their hardships and improve their standard of life but the black race is still blaming everyone for their own failures?
The British navy literally went to war against the slave trade.
Should we go back to when the Romans enslaved the brits and celts?
Slave trade was a TINY proportion of all the trade around the world. How can they claim to have built the entire city? They did virtually nothing.
Thank you Black Lives Matter Newsletter! 🤡
Does 'British involvement in slaving' include the voluntary decision to *abolish* it -- one of the few times that's happened in history -- while it remained legal in other places well into the 1900s, and continues elsewhere illegally today? This self-flagellation is asinine.
Because it was the biggest Atlantic port. So self evidently.
Pull the city down!
