Lies. If true then African should have been the one to colonise Europe. Tribal wars were rampant in Africa which allowed slavery and colonisation, only Ethiopians were the only ones that were able to unit and defeat the invaders from Europe with weapons from the same Europe.
ACTUALLY AFRICA DID COLONISE EUROPE FOR 800 YEARS, LIFTING THEM OUT OF THEIR "DARK AGES" AND INTO THEIR "RENAISSANCE", WHICH WAS THE SPRINGBOARD FOR THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION.

THEY ARE CALLED THE MOORS.

WE DIDN'T GO THERE TO EXPLOIT THEM.

WE WENT THERE TO CIVILISE THEM.

THE MOORS INTRODUCED MODERN WRITING TO EUROPE, AND REPLACED THE ROMAN NUMERALS WITH THE 1,2,3,4 YOU USE TODAY.

THE MOORS BUILT THE FIRST UNIVERSITIES AND LIBRARIES IN EUROPE, STARTING WITH THE MASSIVE GREAT LIBRARY OF CORDOBA IN SPAIN.

THERE ARE STATUES OF THE MOORS ALL OVER EUROPE.

Simply Google "Moorish statues" in Google Images..to see them.

THEY HOLD ANNUAL FESTIVALS ACROSS EUROPE WHERE THE PEOPLE WEAR BLACK FACE AND WEAR AFRICAN COSTUMES TO CELEBRATE THE MOORS WHO RULED FROM THE 7TH CENTURY TO 1492.

800 YEARS.

THE MOORS WERE BLACK WEST AFRICANS WHO INVADED EUROPE VIA SPAIN AND PORTUGAL, AND LATER ESTABLISHED KINGSHIP AS FAR AS FRANCE, GERMANY, IRELAND, CROATIA, ITALY, NETHERLANDS, ETC ETC.

THESE PLACES HAD BLACK KINGS FOR MANY CENTURIES.

TO SEE THEM, GO ON GOOGLE IMAGES AND TYPE 'MOORISH CRESTS'.

YOU'LL SEE HUNDREDS OF IMAGES OF BLACK KINGS OF EUROPE, IF NOT THOUSANDS OF IMAGES.

IS 800 YEARS RULE A JOKE?

Bro, slavery is the gravest crime but it hasn't end, just change form.

People will refuse to come back because slavery hasn't end in their countries. Any Nigeria contending presidential aspirants must go to Chatham House for screening and pledge he will do their wishes.
Tinubu even refused to grant interview to any Nigerian media during his presidential campaign but went to US to do so.

All our resources are still under the foreign management and we can't do anything but follow their policies. Many more.

Any country that refused to do their wishes will be criminalised, we all saw it in Lybia, Venezuela and other places.

More reasons, countries quoted above will oppose the resolution, they are the culprits and they haven't stop

You guys will just come online and be tying bullsheet with confidence. Thank God we also read history. Moors were never blacks. They were from Morocco and Tunisia axis of north Africa. And they never created any kingship in any European country then. The moors were islamic mercenaries who controlled only some area of Spain for some hundreds of years. They were in control of Cordoba and and Granada before they were defeated by the kings of Valencia and Mallorca with the help of the pope then. Stop spreading fake news here. Moors never conquered any European states, they only controled some factions of Spain during the Islamic conquest.

Nigeria should prepare for the set up about to play out soon. We are the most populous black nation.

The white man will hardly ever regard black man. Greed has been black man's inheritance from creation. Black can behead his mother for money. Our ancestors sold their kinsmen into slavery for bottles seaman schnapp and peanut. A very wicked world.

They were not originally blacks, but berbers from Morocco and Algeria. Your so called black moors are the enslaved ones who intermarried the berbers to later become the black moors. They re found only in Mauritania with their mixed white moors. So no black moors ever conquered Spain except the white moors of berbers origin

Re: UNGA Designates African Slave Trade As "Gravest Crime Against Humanity' by MindHacker9009(m):
You are dreaming. What happened was Islam's invasion of Spain by Arabs and North African/Sahara tribesmen newly converted to Islam. The knowledge you are referring to had some influence from the Library of Alexandria in Egypt and papers from the Chinese. The Europeans were able to come together with their latest weapons of guns and gunpowder, to retake Spain from the Islamic invaders. This is what Africans could not do to retake their continent from the invaders.
This North Africans and Arab invaders of Spain might have provoked the Europeans to conquer Africa later.

Those that voted against or abstained are those that do not want to be held responsible for their past actions and their supporters. They don't want to pay reparations for benefiting from the destruction and plundering of Africa to develop themselves.
They will vote against it because many are still benefiting from it even till this day. The West is still plundering Africa till date. They impose stupid and totally inept leaders who will hold fort for them while they steal the continent blind and forment wars and strifes.

Why is it that you can hardly see black slave descendants in Arab countries? Because Arabs castrated the black slaves. So why is UN neglecting the Arab participation of the slave trade?

USA and European countries allowed blacks to reproduce. While Arabs castrated them.

YOUR WHITEWASHED LIES ONLY WORK WITH NEOPHYTES WHO DON'T KNOW AFRICAN HISTORY.

I'VE BEEN STUDYING THIS HISTORY SINCE THE 1980s, PROBABLY BEFORE YOU WERE BORN.

YOU CAN LIE FROM NOW TILL TOMORROW, THE HISTORICAL RECORD IS CLEAR AS DAY.

YOU CAN NEVER SHOW US ONE SINGLE MOORISH STATUE THAT IS ''ARAB'' OR ''BERBER''.

YOU CAN NEVER SHOW US ONE SINGLE MOORISH CREST OR COATS OF ARMS DEPICTING ''ARABS'' OR ''BERBERS''

THEY ARE ALL STATUES OF BLACKS.

THEY ARE ALL CRESTS AND EMBLEMS DEPICTING BLACKS.

THOUSANDS OF THEM.

NO ARABS.

NO WHITES.

NO BERBERS.

JUST....BLACKS.

THE VERY NAME, MOOR, MEANS BLACK. MAURUS.

THE MOORS WHO RULED EUROPE FOR 800 YEARS WERE BLACK AFRICANS.

THE MOORS, THE ANCIENT EGYPTIANS, AND THE HEBREWS WERE ALL BLACKS, AND WERE ALL DEPICTED AS BLACKS THROUGHOUT EUROPE UP TILL THE LATE 18TH CENTURY WHEN THE RISE OF EUROPEAN RACISM LED TO THE WHITENING OF IMAGES AND REWRITING OF HISTORY TO REMOVE AFRICA'S FOUNDATIONAL ROLE IN WORLD CIVILISATION.

BUT WE ARE IN THE INFORMATION AGE NOW.

THE DAYS OF AI.

WE CAN CHECK AND CROSS-CHECK THEIR WHITEWASHED LIES IN REAL TIME NOW.

THE DAYS OF WHITEWASHING AFRICAN HISTORY ARE OVER.


AFRICANS EVEN RULED ALL OF ASIA IN HISTORY, NOT JUST EUROPE.

THE FIRST EMPIRES OF CHINA AND INDIA WERE BLACK AFRICAN.

According to Godfrey Higgins, author of Anacalypsis, ''A VERY GREAT NATION OF BLACKS DID RULE OVER ALMOST ALL ASIA IN A VERY REMOTE ERA, IN FACT BEYOND THE REACH OF HISTORY OR ANY OF OUR RECORDS...''

IN TAIWAN, they still remember and HONOUR those black kings till today:

Re: UNGA Designates African Slave Trade As "Gravest Crime Against Humanity' by lawani(m):
All slave trade should be condemned and not only the transatlantic one. The Ottoman empire sold more European slaves than the number of Africans transported across the Atlantic and that trade has not been condemned. White people continued to be slaves in the Ottoman empire even after slavery was banned in Africa, Europe and America.

Who benefitted from the transatlantic slave trade?
The buyers and sellers
For the first few centuries the main sellers were the Oyo that controlled the slave coast also known as the Bight of Benin. Also other groups on that coast such as the Akan. It went on in trickles for the first few centuries but there was a surge in the nineteenth century. When it was a trickle the cargo was mainly Muslims from the North of west Africa eg Hausa and Fulani while the Yoruba crossed mainly as free men but when there was a surge, the majority of the cargo was Yoruba. Majority of the cargo from even Calabar were Yoruba then followed by Igbo. West Africans crossed voluntarily and they also went back and forth. I can mention several. They include mainly Yoruba and Angolans and you have Yoruba culture entrenched all over the Americas today because millions of them crossed as free men and became slave owners in the Americas. Many of their descendants are white today but they know they are descended from Yoruba or Angolans as the case may be. I read on Quora that the first slave owner in the USA was a black man. That would be a Yoruba man or an Angolan. Therefore who should now pay reparations? And to who?. Are the sellers in Africa exempted from paying reparations? Then how much should be paid to the native Indians whose population in the fifteenth century would have surpassed the Chinese population?

Go and learn history and stop spewing fake news. Arab blacks are the descendants of slaves in Arab lands. Many Arabs have black skin or fair skin as a result of mixing of genetic lines. They have been absorbed into society and not discriminated against. Go and learn history.

Did the British build one single industry, engineering institute, public school, power plant or university in their 80 year rule of plunder?

NO.

In 1960 everywhere was Bush.

In your mud hut village which was only reachable by footpath, since the colonialists built very few roads, children were running around naked. Your elders were barefooted and malnourished. Womens' breasts hanging out. If you don't know how it was in 1960, go and ask your elders.

Today, under black rule, your village is full of mansions.

Yet you worship "oyinbo".
