No one sold your forefathers, they were captured by the white man. Hope I didn't walk into troll bait? |

We didn't sell you. It was partly slave raiding by the whites and Arabs, and invasion by enemy tribes. I've heard people talking about chiefs selling their subjects. Only a person with little knowledge can think of that as a possibility. Our tribes are bound first by blood(made of blood relatives), and second by blood covenants. People kill and die for their tribes even now, and undermining y o ur own tribe is putting your own survival at a very real risk. 2 Likes |

You're always free to return to your country of origin in Africa, and DNA testing has made that easier by matching your DNA with the tribe and country in Africa your very first male or female ancestor came from. Ghana seems to be a popular return country for some African Americans. 1 Like |

Nobody sold anybody to slavery!!. Or, don't you think we would've been as wealthy as Europe and US from the proceeds?. Slavery happened via acts of coercion, arms twisting, kidnapping, war. You have the wrong version of history of slavery because when slavery ended Europeans set out to fool the whole world about the true story. Africans NEVER sold human beings!!.
