Jasmine Crockett is now telling people that Black Americans are the strongest people in America because they overcame slavery and Jim Crow, and that they all come from kings and queens in Africa.. Funny how she always skips the part where about 360,000 Union soldiers dled in the Civil War to end slavery, the vast majority of them white farm boys who never owned a slave in their lives. On top of that, nearly 1,600 British sailors dled chasing down slave ships off the coast of Africa, and that navy FREED about 150,000 Africans before they ever made it across the ocean. Here's the part that makes liberals FURIOUS… The Republican Party was literally founded to stop slavery from spreading, and it was Republicans who pushed through the 13th Amendment. As for those "kings and queens" in Africa she brags about, many of them were the ones running the slave trade. The kingdom of Dahomey alone sold nearly 800,000 captives to slave ships in just 80 years, and its kings got rich raiding their neighbors and selling them.. Imagine BRAGGING about royal African ancestors when those same royals were the ones selling people to slave ships.. lmao
