    For genuine queries I'd recommend "The Sack of Baltimore" by Henry Barnby, Cork Historical and Archaelogical Society, No. 74, 1969. It's the most comprehensive study of that event that I've read.

    It's quite telling that so many invoke the Sack of Baltimore of 1631 (where c. 100 mainly English settlers were kidnapped by corsairs) with four centuries of the Transatlantic Slave Trade (which directly affected a minimum of 12.5 million Africans)

    “And the Irish people were slaves, just like the blacks.” The violent far-right Proud Boys group that this individual is a member of was founded by Gavin McInnes.

    this footage, which sure looks like a proud boy’s mom telling him it’s time to go home, was taken by Defend North East Los Angeles after this dude’s friends shoved a woman at their management-approved hate meetup at The Griffin. please enjoy.

    Goad: “Black slavery in America was pretty bad, kids, but it wasn't anything special. Throughout history, every color of the rainbow has owned slaves and been enslaved.”

    This is what underpins the far-right's endless whataboutery and tendency to equate slavery in different contexts across different millenia. The goal is to empty the history of the transatlantic slave trade of its unique racial element and thus remove its legacy as a determinant.

    McInnes was the editor of VICE when it published Jim Goad’s white nationalist propaganda about American slavery. Goad used the work of a Holocaust denier, Michael Hoffman II, as his main source.

    Taylor's survey of American Renaissance readership in 1997 resulted in Adolf Hitler topping the "Foreigners who have advanced White interests" poll. McInnes:

    McInnes has previously hosted Jared Taylor on his show. Taylor is the editor of the white supremacist American Renaissance website and mentor to the “alt-right" Nazi marketeer Richard Spencer. Both have received financial support from the infamous Pioneer Fund.

    This is tangential, but interesting nonetheless. McGregor’s coach John Kavanagh went on the Gavin McInnes Show in 2016. McInnes is a white nationalist who has pushed “white slaves” propaganda for over a decade.

    Cannot help but think of this line from Michael Guasco and how it also applies centuries later to colonial attitudes to abolition and contempt for the free black population

    "Telling the story of 1619 as an “English” story also ignores the entirely transnational nature of the early modern Atlantic world and the way competing European powers collectively facilitated racial slavery even as they disagreed about and fought over almost everything else."

    Today I learned from that 22 March is Emancipation Day in Puerto Rico. In 1873 the Spanish National Assembly abolished slavery, like the British and the Dutch, by compensating the slave-owners and making the former slaves work for their masters for three more years.

    When the Dutch abolished chattel slavery in their colonies in 1863 they followed the British example by compensating the slave-owners and not the slaves.

    This is disgusting intimidation and a clear incitement to violence. Fox News is 4chan with lipstick.

    Here's Laura Ingraham displaying my face to 2.5 million viewers and calling me a "little journo-terrorist." I am 29. I have no full-time job. I am teaching a single course, for $7k, as an adjunct. This is insane. And irresponsible. It is incitement. It is not okay.

    In 1655 John Blake's family in Galway had most of their land confiscated by Cromwell and were transplanted to a smaller estate in Mullaghmore. In 1668 three of his sons migrated to the Anglo-Caribbean. They aimed to make enough money to reestablish their dynasty back in Ireland.

    There was absolutely no mention of slavery when @GoffsCountry drafted an ad for Newtown House, Abbeyknockmoy, Co. Galway. Yet the prior owners of this property, John and James Kelly, owned two estates in Jamaica and claimed compensation for over 300 enslaved people in the 1830s.

    Peter Daly of Galway owned 120 slaves in Jamaica at this time. He had immigrated there in the 1780s and named one of his plantations in Jamaica 'Dalysgrove' after his home in Galway. In 1834 he claimed for 113 slaves and was awarded £2,318 in compensation.

    The names of the slaves executed in Jamaica for plotting a revolt and "imagining the death [of] white people." The value of each executed slave was paid to their slave-owners out of the treasury "as compensation for the loss of their property." (1823)
