"Slavery was outlawed in Britain in 1770"
- my memory of the only commonly propagated info on #Slavery in Britain.The article is akin to a wallop to my head with a large dead fish.
" In this campaign, successful by 1712, British freedom became a core basis for the enslavement of millions of African people. Slave trader lobbyists developed innovative political methods, prioritising breadth of support over social status. " - #WilliamPettigrew

"Prof Brooke Newman has chronicled in detail the centuries-long involvement of the British monarchy in the enslavement of African people, from the first trafficking voyages backed by Queen Elizabeth I in the 1560s to King William IV, who relished drinking and debauchery on Caribbean plantations and opposed abolition for decades."

RE: https://mastodon.me.uk/@ChrisMayLA6/117267821630724452
I've seen plenty of claims that the British Empire should be lauded for "fighting slavery".
But that doesn't mean we should forget how they profited from slavery for so long.

The Guardian is continuing its examination of the UK's slave-trading past with reams more data on slave-holding.... of course the Right will claim this is 're-writing' history, by which they mean re-writing the false history they seek to defend - that the UK's economic past was *not* structured by, and built on the back of slave ownership.

Real #protest is not giving your children to a #system that is #abusing you and your children in turn.
Don't have children if you really care and see the pattern which is too strong to think about 'a better life' or 'protest'.
By default our existence is from this crap and only way is not to give fresh meat to what eats away at us.
