I have a growing collection of books on slavery.  A number are on The Dahomey, and theare part in the slavery trade. This work is from what I have read so far.

 




THE DAHOMEY THE WHOLESALERS (Added INTRO Completed)

The Dahomey of West Africa wholesalers of African slaves,

Waged war, against, their neighbors

Took survivers as slaves, children, women, men

In chains, whipped them down to the coast, to the

Retailers, European, mostly, waiting there

Those not sold, taken back, killed, as sacrifices

On the altar, of The Profit & Loss Account?  

 

The Dahomy woman, True Amazons, well provisioned in arms

Of all kinds, flintlocks, muskets, round bores, blunderbuss, and rifles with Bayonets,

Sold to The Dahomey, by The Europeans & The Americans!

Handy, with blades of all kinds, hatchets, daggers, and swords!

Four-foot long cutthroat razer was worn hanging from the hip, NOT for shaving Bristles off chins!

Take off a head with one blow, take off a man's genitals, with a single slice! 

 

So no messing with those Dahomey Women - NO WAY!

 

The Kings of the Dahomey, became very wealthy, due to the

International slave trade in human flesh

 

Of course, it were not just, the Dahomey, into that trading in slaves

Human flesh!

The Moroccans were as well into it - stopping ships on the high seas

Tacking the captured crews, shipping them off to Turkey, to the slave market There!

That dates back to King Henry the v111, time, who did - NOTHING - TO STOP

The Mororroccasns raiders - of - HIS KINGDOM!


They also raided the European coastline, including, the English & Irish coast
King Henry The V111, did - NOTHING - TO STOP THE RADES UPON HIS KINGDOM - AND THE TAKING OF HIS SUBJERKES INTO SLAVERY!

 

SO SLAVERY IS NOT A SINGLE ETHNICITY CRIME!

EVEN TODAY, THERE IS SLAVERY - ONLY THE TERMINOLOGY  HAS CHANGED - SLAVERY IN ITS MANY FORMS IS STILL WITH US!

This ultimate degradation of one person by another has been with us since time began. As abhorrent as it is, ownership of one person by another is practiced by all cultures and must be recognized as anathema
