Why do black people think my white ancestors enslaved them?

Question

I'm Russian, not no poor English or French or Irish trash who were too lazy to do their own work.

Russia never used African slave trade.
Who are these odd black people school trying to start arguments with me? are they upset because they have nothing against me? I'm Russian so they have no excuse to say "my people" enslaved them.
Are they mad because I'm part of the loop-hole of whites who never enslaved Africans?

With every single thing it's "it's because I'm black". oh my god, it is so annoying. it isn't funny anymore. You might think it's funny to say it, but it's gotten old... really... no, for the last time, it's NOT because you are black. I don't give a flying bird's doo doo if you are black or not. god.

it's annoying how they think my ancestors enslaved them when actually many free blacks in America AND Native Americans also owned slaves, but they don't look at themselves for that blame.. they don't judge that... it's all about the white people... white people this, white people that, OMG, no one cares! If a white person saw you on the street he wouldn't think twice about your race! get over it!

my ancestors never enslaved blacks why do they think this it's really annoying. a white person from England and a white person from Russia are two totally different people.

Answer 1

Yeah it gets on their nerves when they can't use traditional methods of inflicting White guilt. I love it.

Answer 2

Perhaps the reason for this is same as why many White people think all Black people are on welfare, or are gangsters, or are uneducated or many other negative things based upon the few Black people that are portrayed negatively in the media. This is called stereotyping. As an individual no matter how successful I become or how much I achieve I will never be able to escape the actions of those who underachieve. America is polarized. We are stuck on race because this country was founded with racial identity and division in mind. No matter how hard you try to get away from it, it seems to always some resurface.





Bottom line is many Black people make no distinction between White people just like many White people make no distinction between Black people. There is so much bad blood between Black people and White people that many Black people feel they can't trust any White people despite ethnicity or nationality. This is the world we live in. If you want to change the first place you must start is with yourself.

Answer 3

uhh.. you do realize many irish were actually slaves themselves. the irish were very hated by the english all through out history and along with the italians not even cocidered real white people back then. Irish were also (most of the time) way to poor to own slaves and known as the white n******. but with that aside explain to them that you are russian and there for i am assuming your ancestors where not even in america until years after slavery.

Answer 4

it quite is an extremely stupid assertion. Why ought to present day-day Whites exhibit regret for something they did no longer do?? And why ought to present day-day Blacks want an apology? For what?? Are present day-day Blacks in usa of america slaves? No. Then why might they want an apology for something that on no account occurred to them? There are Blacks in Africa precise now who're being enslaved by different BLACKS, which has been happening for hundreds of years. Why do no longer you address THAT concern and stop attempting to stir up hassle between Blacks and Whites?? Your lack of awareness is appalling and your positioned up is extremely one in each and every of the main mindless and meaningless posts i've got yet to study in this website...

Answer 5

As a black women saying this..dont be saddened.



Some are just ignorent and refuse to educate or enlighten themselves so they find others to blame.

When the obvious is right there =/.

Answer 6

People always say this to me, but I do not think they did and even if they did I cannot change that and I wish they would have not but that is not up to me :/ Take care

Answer 7

idk many like to think that all white people enslaved blacks but that's not true..





and Russia did have slave trade with children, but that has nothing to do with black people being enslaved(which was the topic), so that point is moot.

Answer 8

I hate to burst your bubble friend but the Russians were involved in the slave trade also, especially children, which were favored by the royal courts.

Answer 9

What? We know it wasn't you Russians, and it's funny you mock the English, French, and Irish..cause last time I checked they all were doing better than Russia (even during the days of slavery). That is the end of my answer..to your rant.

Answer 15

Answer 16

I don't recall eva having any shackles on ma neck and feet!

Answer 17

because you are white, so they don't give a damn if their accusations are factual or not. Being right doesn't matter if you're black.

Answer 18

Do you care to actually tell the black people at your school this? Because frankly we can't do anything to them. So tell them not us. Stop crying and complaining. You have so much to say but its behind a computer screen. Nice....o.O

Answer 19
