I found a great quote yesterday from GK Chesterton about slavery in England.
Right: White slaves. Airbrushed from history lessons.
I shall endeavour to type it up as the Quote of the Week though it's slightly longer than our usual offerings.
It got me to thinking. Of course many of you will know of Michael Hoffman's great book 'They Were White and They Were Slaves' which sought to debunk much of the myth surrounding "White Guilt" re. slavery.
A friend of mine went to a Nation of Islam bookshop in London a few years back. Remember them? Farrakhan and Co were once the apple of Nick Griffin's eye. How times change!
Anyway, in the bookshop he found an interesting book on slavery (the title escapes me) which detailed the lead role of "the 13th Tribe" in slavery of coloureds to the Americas.
All these threads, coupled with the fact that most slavery in Europe was abolished thanks to an army of those who stood up for the Common Good (more on that in GKC's quote...) and that in Medieval and post-Medieval Europe most slavery was the result of Moorish/Turkish pirates taking slaves from the European coast (even as far as Britain and Ireland) and we have the basis of an interesting study that could educate our younger generations.
Of course we could also ask if slaves picking cotton can also be compared to our own people forced into slave-like conditions, even the very young, earning barely enough for food and rent: the former usually over-charged and shoddy quality, the latter at the whim of hideous landlords which crammed families into rooms and cellars in hovels and slums.
White Guilt is a misnomer. It's like blaming a housing estate in Durham for profiteering from the British Empire's wars in India or the Opium Trade running out of China.
We have nothing to be guilty for, unless it was refusing to rise up against the Capitalist overlords.
Capitalist Guilt - now there's an oxymoron. Can you imagine any of the City of London bonus-grabbing, cocaine-snorting, Porsche-driving wide boys feeling guilty? I mean ever?
As long as it makes a profit say the slave-masters, the bankers, the speculators and the financiers. Anything else comes a distant second.

They Were White and They Were Slaves is indeed a fantastic book, although it can be hard to get hold of. A copy of it can be found online at:-

Here are three videos of Michael Hoffman being interviewed by Ernst Zundel about this book.

Another great book is White Cargo: The Forgotten History of Britain's White Slaves in America by Don Jordan and Michael Walsh
I think the book you're referring to FC is The Secret Relationship Between Blacks and Jews.
There are some good articles on this subject at this site:-

A black American Professor named Tony Martin gives a fantastic talk on The Jewish Role In The African Slave Trade at the 2001 Real History Conference.

As he states in it "What is so special about the Jews that they are beyond enquiry"?
Another article on the Jewish role in the African Slave Trade is Who Brought the Slaves to America? by Walter White Jr. at :-
http://www.iamthewitness.com/books/Walter.White/Who.Brought.the.Slaves.to.America.htm
For years now white people have had a slave trade complex rammed down their throats at every opportunity. As the Jews control practically control everything you read, watch and listen to they are not going to include their role in the Slave Trade when talking about or making films and/or documentaries etc. about this subject!
When the Slave Trade is ever discussed the role of the blacks themselves is never mentioned. Sean Bryson provides an excellent expose of the black involvement in the Slave Trade and dispels the myth that it was primarily a white concern. Can be found at:-
http://www.seanbryson.com/articles/black_slave_traders.html
In other words whites, blacks and Jews are as guilty as each other when it comes to this historical crime. So stop giving the white race a guilt complex on this issue! However, the Jews use the Slave Trade question as a great tool for stirring up hatred and trouble between white and black people.
"We must realize that our party's most powerful weapon is racial tensions. By propounding into the consciousness of the dark races that for centuries they have been oppressed by whites, we can mould them to the program of the Communist Party. In America we will aim for subtle victory. While inflaming the Negro minority against the whites, we will endeavour to instil in the whites a guilt complex for their exploitation of the Negroes. We will aid the Negroes to rise in prominence in every walk of life, in the professions and in the world of sports and entertainment. With this prestige, the Negro will be able to intermarry with the whites and begin a process which will deliver America to our cause."
"A Racial Program for the 20th Century" - Israel Cohen
As you say FC, who ever mentions/discusses the millions of British and Irish kidnapped by Moslem Moors and sold into slavery. For further information see White Gold by Giles Milton and Christian Slaves,Muslim Masters: White Slavery in the Mediterranean,the Barbary Coast,and Italy,1500-1800 by Robert Davis.
Slavery is a terrible thing, however its gone on since the dawn of time and is still practised in many countries today. The white working class of this country know about slavery more than anyone. We have had to endure it for the last few centuries living through the false left-right wing paradigm of British politics that deliberately keeps the minority rich and the majority poor.
The City of London is a den of vipers that worships at the altar of Mammon.
