  3. UN Declares Transatlantic Slave Trade a Crime Against Humanity!

    The image clearly shows the disgusting reality of the hypocrisy of the western world.

    This is what IMPERIALISM is. Trying their best to forget, ignore and deny the centuries of crimes against humanity that build their wealth and fortune.

  9. A quotation from Daniel Webster

    At the moment when God in his mercy has blessed the Christian world with a universal peace, there is reason to fear, that, to the disgrace of the Christian name and character, new efforts are making for the extension of this [slave] trade by subjects and citizens of Christian states, in whose hearts there dwell no sentiments of humanity or of justice, and over whom neither the fear of God nor the fear of man exercises a control. In the sight of our law, the African slave-trader is a pirate and a felon; and in the sight of Heaven, an offender beyond the ordinary depth of human guilt.

    Daniel Webster (1782-1852) American statesman, lawyer, orator
    Speech (1820-12-22), “First Settlement of New England,” Plymouth, Massachusetts
