The system we live in was created by white men, for white men. Its purpose was to build and maintain power and resources, specifically wealth, for them. We see this reflected in society constantly. What we're witnessing now is a new extreme. People are not only defending their whiteness, but violently fighting to maintain white supremacy. They are going to extraordinary lengths politically and economically to ensure the system doesn't change, making it clear that they don't want anyone else to have access or power.

It's easy to exploit the narrative that someone else is to blame for your problems because it's hard to take responsibility for your life. Blaming someone else allows you to avoid responsibility by playing the victim. These tactics have been used repeatedly to divide people. In Algeria, Marxists used religion by introducing Islamists to exploit, divide, and control society. In South Africa and America, race was used. These tactics are effective, but they don't survive over time because only the truth remains.

Black people sold black people; white people just paid for it. The speaker's great-great-grandmother was sold by her father to another black man, who then sold her to her husband. Slavery existed worldwide, including in the Arab, Persian, and Greek worlds, and among Europeans. Slavery is not unique to black people. Racism is given too much respect. Discrimination would still exist even in a mono-racial world; people would discriminate based on traits like eye color. As long as you are competition and a threat, someone will try to remove you, regardless of race. Conversely, if you add value, you will be appreciated, regardless of race.

America's history of systemic racism means that institutions have done violence to Black Americans, from slavery, Jim Crow laws, lynchings, and policing.

White people don't understand why Black people don't "just get a job," while Black people remember slavery and Jim Crow. Similarly, white people, focused on personal pursuits, don't grasp Jewish historical oppression from pharaohs to Hitler. Jews feel perpetually threatened, remembering persecution and vowing to overcome enemies. While white people want to get along, Jews see potential anti-Semitism rooted in historical events. Blacks and Hispanics are focused on their communities, struggles, and histories, like the Mexican-American War. Jews focus on historical persecutions. White people are told to ignore these issues and focus on a "multiracial meritocracy," VR, AI, and personal pursuits, while others "go to war with Iran" and "take over the world."

The speaker challenges the idea of a unified white or European identity, noting that Europeans fought each other in two world wars and that there is no clear boundary of who is 'white' (examples: Italians vs Swedes; Turks in Europe). They warn that any imagined unity would create an Us-versus-them dynamic and inevitable division. They question the existence of a European identity and of whiteness itself, suggesting race is an American concept tied to post-slavery. They point out that Europeans have long histories of war and nationalist ambitions—fascist tendencies, Franco-like rule, a Catholic monarchy, and exclusion of Muslims or evangelicals. They argue those ideas were never American; Europe has been an immigrant country, but some now seek to overturn the constitution and create a fascist dictatorship with a Catholic government, which would be the most anti-American idea they've heard.

Racism goes beyond what's visible, benefiting white people through white privilege. It shapes identities, creating norms that favor whites and hold back people of color. These beliefs are embedded in institutions, perpetuating inequality. Understanding racism is crucial to making meaningful change together.

Irish people were the first slaves in America, a history that is largely ignored. They were taken from Ireland, treated like animals, and sold for less than African slaves in the 1600s. Known as "white cargo," over 300,000 Irish were shipped to the Caribbean and American colonies. They endured harsh conditions on sugar plantations, dying from disease, beatings, and starvation, with unmarked graves and forgotten names. Some were transported in coffin ships, never to return. The term "redneck" originated from the Irish laborers burned by the Caribbean sun. While others were freed, remembered, or repaid, the Irish received nothing. History was rewritten, renaming them indentured servants to conceal the truth, resulting in no reparations, monuments, or recognition in education.

It's interesting how discussions about slavery often imply that America created it. However, many ancient empires, like Egypt, Rome, Greece, and Mali, also relied on slavery. In Africa, tribal conflicts led to the capture and sale of people into slavery long before European involvement. These conversations are challenging and often avoided due to their emotional weight. The narrative of oppression has overshadowed the rich and complex history of various peoples. America uniquely fought a civil war over slavery, aiming to humanize slaves and legislate their freedom. Despite this, many in America still express grievances about privileges that others around the world lack. Today, slavery persists in various countries, and many people still endure these harsh realities.

Joe Biden recently spoke about white supremacy being the biggest threat to Americans, but he failed to mention that the white supremacy he refers to is within the Democratic Party. Throughout history, Democrats have perpetuated division through actions like creating black codes and promoting lynching. While some argue that there are black leaders within the Democratic Party, it is akin to the distinction between a field Negro and a house Negro. The modern-day house Negroes, living in mansions and earning millions, still disregard the plight of those in the projects. The Democratic Party poses a significant threat to America.

The speaker discusses the connection between colonization, the transatlantic slave trade, and the establishment of Africa as the ultimate racial other. They explain how the idea of race was used to justify the brutal exploitation of Africans and the dehumanization of black people. This ideology also served to legitimize the dominance of whiteness globally. The speaker emphasizes that these legacies not only defined subordinate groups but also established and legitimized the dominance of the white group. They conclude by stating that even in 2021, whiteness continues to hold power globally due to the historical processes of colonialism and the transatlantic slave trade.

The United States is characterized as a semi-democratic, white-dominated, hierarchical, and racist society, rooted in privilege since its formation in 1787. It has a history of slavery and the genocide of Native Americans, which continues to influence its structure today. The U.S. can maintain a democratic facade domestically while engaging in ruthless imperialism abroad. Since 1950, it has been the most violent country in the world.

White people fear letting go of power because they believe domination is human nature. However, history shows that black and brown people existed without subjugation before white colonialism. The speaker advocates for moving beyond whiteness and imagining a world without it. They emphasize that whiteness has a beginning and will have an end, and that black and indigenous cultures existed long before white colonialism. The goal is to overcome the historical tragedy of whiteness and create a better future.

The ruling class divides people to keep the rich getting richer. They use race, religion, ethnicity, jobs, income, education, and more to pit us against each other. The upper class hoards money and avoids taxes, while the middle class keeps working.

White people need to realize that they created the concept of race to benefit themselves. Therefore, solving issues related to race is their responsibility.

Democrats have tested their actions on the black community before implementing them on white Americans. They destroyed the economy, birth control rates, monuments, and influenced the acceptance of homosexuality and rebellion through music. Hollywood representation was denied, and they dismissed our concerns about forced vaccinations. The Census Bureau changed our nationality multiple times, and they assassinated our real leaders. They altered the color of historical figures and labeled us as a problem because of our race. Now, they are doing the same to white Americans. Black Americans may embrace the new propaganda, while white Americans will rightfully speak out against it. This creates a divide where black Americans may feel that white Americans don't want them to have anything. We are living in a powerful psychological operation where history is erased.

America has long been described as a "melting pot," a term popularized in the early 20th century, but its origins and implications are often misrepresented. The phrase gained traction in the 1960s, largely due to a book by John F. Kennedy, and is frequently invoked by politicians and media to emphasize immigration. However, the historical context reveals that early immigration laws favored European settlers, with significant restrictions on other groups. The Hart-Celler Act of 1965 dramatically changed immigration patterns, leading to a surge in non-European immigrants. This shift has sparked debates about cultural identity and welfare dependency. Ultimately, America was founded by settlers who shaped its identity, and the narrative of it being solely a nation of immigrants overlooks this foundational aspect.

The speaker questions why public schools focus on the Transatlantic slave trade and not on other slave systems, arguing that slavery was widespread across history and regions. They claim the Ottoman Empire enslaved six hundred years and 5–10 million people, with sexual slavery being institutionalized and slaves sourced from Central Europe, the Balkans, and among Hungarians, Russians, and Ukrainians. They assert the word slave derives from “Slav.” They also assert lengthy slave trades in other regions: the Trans Indian slave trade lasting over twelve hundred years and enslaving 4–10 million people; and the Trans Saharan slave trade lasting over twelve hundred years and enslaving 9–17 million people. The speaker asserts that these systems ended after, not before, the North Atlantic slave trade, and emphasizes that chattel slavery was practiced in all these places. They claim that in 1776 the majority of countries in the world practiced chattel slavery, and that while Europe and the United States were early in abolishing slavery, it continued much longer in the Middle East, Africa, and in places like China, Thailand, and Mongolia. They state that if one looked back to 1776, 90–95% of the countries in the world practiced slavery, a norm for thousands of years. They also state that the United States banned slavery in seven states at a time when the rest of the world had banned it in only seven countries. The speaker contends that the reason these histories aren’t taught is that schools are framed through a Marxist lens of oppressed versus oppressors, intentionally teaching history out of context as a form of brainwashing designed to make dividing and conquering society easy. They claim that, without historical context, it allows framing the United States as uniquely evil, whereas, in reality, it is Britain, the United States, and the West that are responsible for driving the institution of slavery into extinction. Additionally, the speaker promotes their own work, stating they teach courses on real history and what it means to be an American, and that they write books on the First Amendment and the Second Amendment, inviting readers to engage with their material.

The United States is described as a semi-democratic, white-dominated, hierarchical, racist society that aims to preserve privilege for the elites, which is how it was formed in 1787. It's claimed the US was a slave-owning, genocidal country killing Native Americans for a white culture, and amazingly, it still looks that way. It's noted that while the US is now more diverse, deep cultural distinctions remain important, and the details matter.

Black people sold black people, white people just paid for it. Slavery existed worldwide, not just in America. In Europe, even white people were enslaved. Racism exists regardless of skin color.

White people fear that there is no other way to be human except the way they are, which is to dominate. They believe it's human nature and that others would do the same if given the power. However, history shows that black and brown people have interacted without subjugation and colonialism. We should strive for a politics that rejects the idea of superior and inferior human beings. White people fear letting go of power because they can't imagine another way. While violence is not the solution, we must challenge their corrupt thinking. We need to remember that white colonialism and imperialism have a beginning and will eventually end. Our goal is to imagine the steps to move beyond this interruption of black and indigenous world-making caused by whiteness.

Black people were given positions of power, but they remained poor and lacked resources. The slave patrol was used as a means to exploit and control poor people, especially those of color. The elite used this division to prevent rebellions where black and white people united against them. The strategy of divide and conquer was effective in turning poor white individuals against black people.

"Is because you can then misuse words like oppression." "There has been no oppression for the white man in this country." "You tell me which white men were dragged out of their homes." "You tell me which one of them got dragged all the way across an ocean and told that you are gonna go at work." "We are gonna steal your wives." "We are gonna rape your wives." "That didn't happen." "That is oppression." "We didn't ask to be here." "We're not the same migrants that y'all constantly come up against." "We didn't run away from home. We were stolen." "So, yeah, we are gonna sit here and be offended when you wanna sit here and act like and and and don't let it escape you that it is white men on this side of the aisle telling us, people of color on this side of the aisle, that y'all are the ones being oppressed, that y'all are the ones that are being harmed."
