The usual suspects, Theland, and we all have to fall into place or be condemned.

Did anyone watch it .. seems that the Africans were as much to blame as anyone.
How come this is never mentioned. Without the co-operation of the black African tribesmen, slaves wouldn't have been as readily available. Bet BLM wasn't around then ?

Because it's an inconvenient truth.

yes most slaves were rounded up and sold by other tribes. Bit inconvenient I suppose. When I say "rounded up" I mean brutally subdued and captured, often by a neighbouring tribe.

In my initial post I gave information relating to the programme about slavery that was on BBC.
At the time I subscribed to it .. why can't I see it in my 'Subscribed Posts' ?
