http://amsterdamnews.com/news/2018/sep/18/major-role-catholic-church-played-slavery/

The Catholic Church played a vital role in the trans-Atlantic slave trade, according to historians and several published thesiis on the topic.

The trans-Atlantic slave trade was introduced by the coming of the Europeans who came with the Bible in the same manner that Arab raiders and traders from the Middle East and North Africa introduced Islam through the Trans-Saharan slave trade, according to AfricaW.com, a premiere informational website available throughout the continent.

“In fact, the Church was the backbone of the slave trade,” the authors wrote. “In other words, most of the slave traders and slave ship captains were very ‘good’ Christians.”

For example, Sir John Hawkins, the first slave-ship captain to bring African slaves to the Americas, was a religious man who insisted that his crew “serve God daily” and “love one another.” His ship, ironically called “The Good Ship Jesus,” left the shores of his native England for Africa in October 1562. Some historians argue that if churches had used their power, the Atlantic slave trade might have never occurred.

By the same logic, others argue that the Catholic church and Catholic missionaries could have also helped to prevent the colonization and brutality of colonialism in Africa. However, according to a 2015 Global Black History report, the Catholic church did not oppose the institution of slavery until the practice had already become infamous in most parts of the world.

In most cases, the churches and church leaders did not condemn slavery until the 17th century.

The five major countries that dominated slavery and the slave trade in the New World were either Catholic, or still retained strong Catholic influences including: Spain, Portugal, France, and England, and the Netherlands.

“Persons who considered themselves to be Christian played a major role in upholding and justifying the enslavement of Africans,” said Dr. Jonathan Chism, an assistant professor of history at the University of Houston-Downtown.

“Many European ‘Christian’ slavers perceived the Africans they encountered as irreligious and uncivilized persons. They justified slavery by rationalizing that they were Christianizing and civilizing their African captors. They were driven by missionary motives and impulses,” Chism said.

Further, many Anglo-Christians defended slavery using the Bible. For example, white Christian apologists for slavery argued that the curse of Ham in Genesis Chapter 9 and verses 20 to 25 provided a biblical rationale for the enslavement of Blacks, Chism said.

In this passage, Noah cursed Canaan and his descendants arguing that Ham would be “the lowest of slaves among his brothers” because he saw the unclothedness of his father. A further understanding of the passage also revealed that while some have attempted to justify their prejudice by claiming that God cursed the black race, no such curse is recorded in the Bible.

That oft-cited verse says nothing whatsoever about skin color.

Also, it should be noted that Black race evidently descended from a brother of Canaan named Cush. Canaan’s descendants were evidently light-skinned – not black. “Truly nothing in the biblical account identifies Ham, the descendant of Canaan, with Africans. Yet, Christian apologists determined that Africans were the descents of Ham,” Chism said.

Nevertheless, at the beginning the sixteenth century, the racial interpretation of Noah’s curse became commonplace, he said.

In 2016, Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. offered a public apology after acknowledging that 188 years prior, Jesuit priests sold 272 slaves to save the school from financial ruin.

This is how The New York Times first reported the story: The human cargo was loaded on ships at a bustling wharf in the nation’s capital, destined for the plantations of the Deep South. Some slaves pleaded for rosaries as they were rounded up, praying for deliverance.But on that day, in the fall of 1838, no one was spared: not the 2-month-old baby and her mother, not the field hands, not the shoemaker and not Cornelius Hawkins, who was about 13 years old when he was forced onboard.

Their panic and desperation would be mostly forgotten for more than a century. But this was no ordinary slave sale. The enslaved African-Americans had belonged to the nation’s most prominent Jesuit priests. And they were sold, along with scores of others, to help secure the future of the premier Catholic institution of higher learning at the time, known today as Georgetown University.

“The Society of Jesus, who helped to establish Georgetown University and whose leaders enslaved and mercilessly sold your ancestors, stands before you to say that we have greatly sinned,” Rev. Timothy Kesicki, S.J., president of the Jesuit Conference of Canada and the United States, said during a Liturgy of Remembrance, Contrition, and Hope.

“We pray with you today because we have greatly sinned and because we are profoundly sorry.”

During the early republic, Catholics celebrated the new Constitution for its guarantee of religious liberty while simply accepting its guarantee of slaveholding, according to Blackthen.com.

Internal church politics mattered too. When the Jesuit order was suppressed in 1773, the plantation system of the order in Maryland was seen as a protection for their identity and solidarity.

The universal church taught that slavery enjoyed the sanction of Scripture and natural law. Throughout the antebellum period, many churches in the South committed to sharing their version of the Christian faith with Blacks. They believed that their version of Christianity would help them to be “good slaves” and not challenge the slave system, Chism said.

“Yet, it is important to note that African Americans made Christianity their own, and Black Christians such as Nat Turner employed Christian thought and biblical texts to resist the slave system. Furthermore, Black and white abolitionist Christians played a major role in overturning the system of slavery,” he said.

The Bible does have five African nations in it while is not mentioned at all. With that, the Bible is not an historical document but rather a book of faith and should be appreciated in that way!

Should historical documents of Babylon, Assyria, Greece, Rome, or Egypt all be called 'faith documents' because they don't include anything about the "America's, or even Skandinavian countries, or any of the nations of the far east? The Bible is proven historically regarding the people and territories that are the ones who interacted in the history of Israel. If you're going to discuss history, please know what you're talking about before you show the world your predjidice and ignorance.

And it is pretty clear that Ham "saw his father's unclothedness" not Canaan, yet Canaan was punished. Some scholars believe "saw his father's unclothedness" was used as a phrase meaning slept with their father's wife. I.e. Canaan was a product of incest and thus denied the ability to inherit from the cheated-upon. Thus, the verse has nothing to do with race, but rather with incest. It is important to discover the meaning of the Bible to the people who wrote it, not to weathy white men looking to use it to justify the unjustifiable centuries later.

Descendants of Put may be from the N Africa area near Libya - Nahum 3:6
Descendants of Cush - (had six sins including Nimrod Babel Gen 10:8-12 Babel and Assyria ) may have settled parts of Egypt, Ethiopia, Libya - Jeremiah 13:23 (dark race) and at least one scholar say as far north as the SE corner of the Black Sea (Caucasus*).

*An article by P. English in the Journal of Near Eastern Studies (1959, Vol. XVIII, pp. 49-53) presents evidence of a Negro population in ancient times in the region of the SE corner of the Black Sea and later in the Caucasus region farther N. It suggests a relationship between the names of the regions of Abkhazia and Khazaria, inhabited by such tribes, and the Biblical Cush.

Descendants of Mizraim settled in Egypt - Gen 50:11

Thus their isn’t a sliver of evidence that the black race was cursed by God

The headline purports to focus on the Catholic Church, the actual article is all over the place mentioning culprits. It also fails to mention the many priests, religious, and laymen who opposed the slave trade and ministered to the slaves. All things considered, this article is a vulgar hit piece.

It may be vulgar. It is still correct. The Church still played a huge role in the slave trade. You cannnot deny this fact. You also cannot deny the fact of the use of the Catholic faith to justify slavery. And yes, the preist and laymen that ministered ,or in the non-Catholic vernacular, stripped aways the religious and culural identity of enslaved Africans. Let us not forget about them. :/ All things considered, the Church then went on to help nazi's flee Europe, looking back, this is not suprising at all.

It's nonsense because it was the Catholic Church started the debate as to whether slavery could be morally justified.

Of course the people who were involved in the trade were Christians but the question of whether slavery could be justified in church law was never raised until the Catholic church raised in the 16th century. HIstorically some Popes were known to be slaves. Similarly there was no barrier in law till the matter was brought up in the English courts in the 18th century

I wish people would type 'The Catholic Church and Slavery' into Google before pontificating without knowledge on the internet.

THE CHURCH AND ROMAN SLAVERY.—The first missionaries of the Gospel, men of Jewish origin, came from a country where slavery existed. But it existed in Judea under a form very different from the Roman form. The Mosaic Law was merciful to the slave (Ex., xxi; Lev., xxv; Dent., xv, xvi, xxi) and carefully secured his fair wage to the laborer (Dent.,) cxiv, 15). In Jewish society the slave was not an object of contempt, because labor was not despised as it was elsewhere. No man thought it beneath him to ply a manual trade. These ideas and habits of life the Apostles brought into the new society wh…See More

Iyabo Ojo’s Lawyers Serve Yomi Fabiyi Legal Letter, Demand N100 Million in Damages Over Defamatory Statements an hour ago by Adeyinka Odutuyo - Actress Iyabo Ojo has sued colleague Yomi Fabiyi hours after leading a protest seeking the release of Baba Ijesha - Ojo through her lawyers demanded an immediate retraction of defamatory statements spelt out on placards at the protest ground led by Fabiyi - The actor has also been asked to pay the sum of N100 million in damages PAY ATTENTION: Legit.ng is on a mission to support vulnerable children of Calabar – join the initiative on Patreon, let’s change more lives together! Hours after leading a protest against the continued detention of colleague Olanrewaju Omiyinka aka Baba Ijesha, actor Yomi Fabiyi has been sued by colleague, Iyabo Ojo. The actress through her lawyers, The Maverick Forte Legal, is suing Fabiyi for defamatory statements made against her during the course of the protest.


Ojo took to her official page on Instagram with photos showing the legal papers. A particular reference was made to defamatory statements which were written out on placards displayed by Fabiyi and other protesters on the protest ground.

The said inscription on the placard read: “Nigeria police please allow the law to dictate to you, not Iyabo Ojo, Princess and co. Please release Baba Ijesha. "Iyabo Ojo and Princess promised to kill Baba Ijesha if released on bail in this era?”
The actress’ lawyers also made it clear that Ojo categorically denied making any of the statements which were displayed on the placards. "Our client, therefore, deny making such a statement to kill Mr Olanrewaju Omiyinka alias Baba Ijesha nor to unlawfully interfere with statutory responsibilities of the Nigeria Police Force." Fabiyi has been ordered to retract the defamatory statements made against the actress and desist from following a similar course of action in future. The actor has also been demanded to pay the sum of N100 million in damages to the Nollywood actress .

Reacting to the court letter on his Instagram page, Fabiyi shared the picture of a movie poster "OKO IYABO" on which seemed to be his attempt at making light of the situation.


Davido

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that Davido expressed reservations against Yomi Fabiyi over his support for Baba Ijesha. The singer reacted to a video post showing Fabiyi at the protest ground. Davido was quick to clamp down on the actor for breaking COVID-19 protocols.

My honest opinion is

You are in love with her and she in love with someone else. It no big deal ,
Do a DNA first and Seek custody of your daughter .... it makes it easy to see or take her whenever u want,.....then Allow your daughter to live with her, Come an arrangement for looking after your child.

As a man , I believe you will have to go work and wouldn't advise you to burden your next girlfriends with your daughter until u are married

she is best person to look after her own daughter ...not your mum unless she cant for whatever reason.

she might be trying to stay because of her daughter . If she still loves her ex.. please allow her to move on otherwise you will be the one 2 suffer if u force her 2 stay.

There is only 1 child involved , so it best to both move on now .
break up peacefully with her for sake of ur daughter and get over her and move on.
You dont have to be enemies , if she needs help and you can , render it. For the sake of your daughter and know where to draw the line.

You are not married and only i child involved , just cos u have a child does no mean u have to be together,

For those saying they went through the same treatment while in boarding school and it is no big deal...does that make it right? . Why do we always feel that by going through /subjecting children to violence , brutal treatment is the only way we can raise disciplined / tough kids.
Even we Adults sef, will no tolerate such treatment from anyone , why do we think it 's ok for a child to go through it.
The poor boy reported it to one of the teachers,,, didnt he .
Some teachers cannot even have a reasonable conversation with their students without shouting their heads off, as if the child is an animal.

People did not just their children to boarding school for free , they also pay for the services as well.
It is the school's responsibility to look after the children in their care otherwise they should just close down

PoliticsUS Election 2020: Joe Biden Wins The Presidency by mickeymimi(op): 5:42pm On Nov 07, 2020
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/election-us-2020-54836636

Joe Biden has won the race to become the next US president, defeating Donald Trump following a cliff-hanger vote count after Tuesday's election.

The BBC projects that Mr Biden has won the key battleground of Pennsylvania, propelling him over the 270 electoral college vote threshold required to clinch the White House.

The Trump campaign has indicated their candidate does not plan to concede.

The result makes Mr Trump the first one-term president since the 1990s.

The BBC's projection of Mr Biden's victory is based on the unofficial results from states that have already finished counting their votes, and the expected results from states like Wisconsin where the count is continuing.

The election has seen the highest turnout since 1900. Mr Biden has won more than 73 million votes so far, the most ever for a US presidential candidate. Mr Trump has drawn almost 70 million, the second-highest tally in history.

President Trump had falsely declared himself the winner of the election when vote counting was unfinished. He has since alleged irregularities in counting, but has not presented any evidence of election fraud.

His campaign has filed a barrage of lawsuits in various states and earlier on Friday, as Mr Biden appeared on the cusp of victory, said: "This election is not over."


The election was fought as coronavirus cases and deaths continued to rise across the United States, with President Trump arguing a Biden presidency would result in lockdowns and economic gloom. Joe Biden accused the president of failing to impose sufficient measures to control the spread of Covid-19.

Joe Biden is now set to return to the White House, where he served for eight years as President Barack Obama's deputy. At the age of 78, he will be the oldest president in American history, a record previously held by the man he has now defeated, Donald Trump, who is 74.

Analysis box by Anthony Zurcher, North America reporter
Joe Biden's projected victory after four days of painstaking vote-counting is the denouement of an extraordinary campaign, conducted during a devastating pandemic and widespread social unrest, and against a most unconventional of incumbents.

In his third try for the presidency, Mr Biden found a way to navigate the political obstacles and claim a win that, while perhaps narrow in the electoral college tally, is projected to surpass Mr Trump's overall national total by at least four million votes.

With his projected victory, Joe Biden becomes the oldest man ever elected to the White House. He brings with him the first woman vice-president, whose multi-ethnic heritage carries with it numerous other firsts.

Mr Biden can now begin the arduous task of planning the transition to his new administration. He will have just under three months to assemble a cabinet, determine policy priorities and prepare to govern a nation facing numerous crises and sharply divided along partisan lines.

Joe Biden has been dreaming of the White House for most of his 50 years in the public arena. With this prize of a lifetime, however, come the challenges of a lifetime.


The BBC projects that Biden has topped the 270 electoral votes he needs to defeat Donald Trump.
