American Reckoning Ep. 9 - The Slave Narratives

126

In this episode, just in time for the forced fake holiday of Juneteenth, we go through a few of the Slave Narratives from the Federal Writer's Project of 1936-1938. One of the purposely buried facts out there is that many black slaves actually spoke kindly and had positive sentiments toward their white owners in the South, whom they considered family. About 65% of the slave narratives portray nothing but good feelings on their experience on the plantations. They considered white's family and it was reciprocated. Slavery is nothing new in humankind, in fact, it is still going on today in many parts of the world, e.g. chattel slavery, and other forms, including sex slavery. The high-minded, sanctimonious, hypocrisy of the northern states and the Lincoln administration is also exposed when it comes to slavery as the cause of war. This is the first part of a two-part look at this part of history on American Reckoning.
