> South American countries which were huge destinations for African slaves
This is a gross misrepresentation of events.
They were colonized by European countries, who imported African slaves, to work alongside the SAmerican slaves for their economic exploitation.
- randompwd 6y agoActually, they were colonised by a relatively tiny group of individuals. And the profits were kept by a relatively tiny group of individuals.
- yunohn 6y ago> tiny group of individuals Where did they come from? Europe. The elite/exploiters are never the majority, in fact, they kind of need to stay “tiny”. That’s how power and leverage work, and even the concept of scalability in capitalism.
