1. A man from DR Congo bound in chains and net as a prisoner in 1916.



2. An African man bought as a slave shows the indelible scars on his back. These scars were from the inhumane punishments meted on him by the slave masters. According to reports, Timothy was bloody from his skin being flayed by the ocean and the wind, so they lied.



3. These children were between the ages of 5 and 6. They had their hands amputated for not meeting their targets on the rubber extraction farms. Their Father stares at the hand and foot of his five-year-old, severed as a punishment for failing to make the daily rubber quota, Belgian Congo, 1904.



4. African Slaves carrying their master on their shoulder under a scorching sun.




5. A slave master boiling a perceived disobedient slave  in a hot sugarcane juice.



6. This picture captures a moment when a slave was been freed from shackles of captivity in Europe.



7. A very graphic image of another slave whose back was destroyed with nail laced canes and wires.



8. A heart wrenching picture; a moment when able bodied African men were sold into captivity by their own people for tokens as little as a bottle of ethanol, mirrors, roofing sheets, clothing, pomades or money.

So bad, but ironically, these men has their descendants living good in Europe and America, we're still here talking about RUGA and border closure...

They suffered for their unborn generations. Now their great great great grand children are enjoying life in civilised countries in europe and american with powerful passports and endless opportunities. Shame on the black man for selling his fellow brothers and sisters for a mirror.

Who told you they are enjoying? Can’t you see most of them wanting to relocate to Africa or the Caribbean? If things were rosy in Africa, I’m pretty sure most of them would have relocated. They live under blatant white supremacy and in constant fear for their lives, because the police can kill them at any moment, even in their homes.

Then I come across this and I Know why they refer to us as blacks not just by our skin color but cos of the fact that our hearts are also dark.

The same thing is happening even today. People collect peanuts from politicians to help destroy their own people.
