As Black History Month comes to a close for many, I wanted to post these video's on the Arab Slave Trade. The first video deals with a very horrendous subject matter," castration" of Africans by Arab slavers . I have for a long time, have heard of ancient Egyptians having eunuchs, but have always felt that African as a whole did not use so called eunuchs ; like in the mid-eastern countries & ancient China , & that the Egyptologist & white historians by placing Egypt in the Mid-East assumed that they did. I have never seen the evidence of this . This is not to say that they did not import them from other countries . But Arab slavers did castrate, & still do in Saudi Arabia . The subject matter of the Arab Slave trade is seldom discussed as these videos point out. I have always had very mixed feeling about Arabs of ancient times; & Islam & Arabs today. With all that is going on with them in their own countries & now across the Western world due to the mass immigration , I find it very hard at times to have compassion, but as a human being, to another, I do, but it is something that I have to work at, forgiveness !
