#slave-trade-triangle
Like I'm sorry in the Anglosphere we can talk about how many people in Britain don't talk about the slave trade or know about, idk, the Mau Mau but if the Spanish, WHO INVENTED THE TRIANGLE TRADE, can pretend they weren't an imperial power, idk what to say

People running in here with "Blurred Lines" like they have some gotcha

Puhleeeeze

"Blurred Lines" glorifies rape, yes. But "Brown Sugar" glorifies slave-rape AND the Triangle Trade

That the system of transatlantic slavery was invented by the Portuguese. They invented the plantation and the triangle trade. They invented the modern idea of a slave society with a racialised underclass of slave people, as a reincarnation of Roman Imperialism. And everyone else just copied them.

This implies that Mermaids had the equivalent of the Transatlantic Slave Trade Triangle.

Try and make some patriotic history about the Slave Trade Triangle or the Irish Genocide/Famine.

“History lessons are welcome”

Is it CRACK!???? This is what happens when they call the transatlantic SLAVE TRADE the “triangle trade” in history books.

Might want to think about not flying the flag of the brutal colonial power that perfected the triangle slave trade and spent its glory years being run by inbred Germans before you run your mouth at a Black woman in America, Stevie.
Getting defensive about this shows you really do no understand at all why the world hates America.

Yeah it's the part of the "triangle trade" that was between the Americas, Europe and Africa that was Africa to America and included the Slave Trade.

For context, her husband's family made their money in the slave, liquor, and opium trades. That 'triangle trade' you heard about in middle school? Those are her in-laws
Yall that lady possibly risked it all at a Cold Play concert forreal.

Her husband is one of Boston's original families, worth BILLIONS.

She cheated with a "broke boi".

Interesting but I have always thought of it as The Triangular Trade. Without the other two sides of the triangle the slave runs would not have been happening.

Remember that children also needed to be protected from the term Slave in triangle slave trade but not the hazards of adult work environments, unregulated milk and meat, or petroleum products in the air , what nonsense for the sake of pride and greed

The conditions reported in those warehouses sound similar to the conditions in the slave ships on the triangle trade.

there's characteristics about the slave trade in the atlantic triangle that made it fairly unique

mostly because of the scale and economics, but if you haven't read how europe underdeveloped africa i highly recommend it

The eagle marks the site in Paradise Street of the former American consulate. The USA formed one side of the Atlantic Slave Trade triangle, and was important to Liverpool's economy. More than a million and a half Africans were transported across the Atlantic in Liverpool-owned slave ships. 1/2

I’ve seen ignorance about stuff we were actually taught.

My hometown was a part of the slave triangle. We covered it in History and had school trips to the local museum about the rum trade (with a mock-up of a slave ship interior).

Cue former classmates claiming we’d never been taught about it.

Ope, you forgot about the Inuit cultural assimilation campaigns and their Caribbean slave colony and active involvement in the triangle trade

Europe is one of the points on the classic Atlantic slave trade triangle diagram for a reason

Ah, okay. You recognize slave trade as a real and horrific event, and you're questioning whether the Africa-to-Americas trade was actually one side of a triangle. Whether the triangle is reasonably accurate, or grossly oversimplified, my point stands, about travel chained, vs. travel unchained.
