Publisher’s Summary
Acclaimed historian Gerald Horne troubles America’s settler colonialism’s “creation myth”.
August 2019 saw numerous commemorations of the year 1619, when what was said to be the first arrival of enslaved Africans occurred in North America. Yet in the 1520s, the Spanish, from their imperial perch in Santo Domingo, had already brought enslaved Africans to what was to become South Carolina. The enslaved people here quickly defected to local Indigenous populations, and compelled their captors to flee. Deploying such illuminating research, The Dawning of the Apocalypse is a riveting revision of the “creation myth” of settler colonialism and how the United States was formed. Here, Gerald Horne argues forcefully that, in order to understand the arrival of colonists from the British Isles in the early 17th century, one must first understand the “long 16th century” - from 1492 until the arrival of settlers in Virginia in 1607.
In retelling the bloodthirsty story of the invasion of the Americas, Horne recounts how the fierce resistance by Africans and their Indigenous allies weakened Spain and enabled London to dispatch settlers to Virginia in 1607. These settlers laid the groundwork for the British Empire and its revolting spawn that became the United States of America.

It’s great that they forced their erstwhile captors to do a runner.
The Brits were responsible for much worse & had to be “invited to leave” on quite a few occasions.

Arabs also did slavery long before Europeans.
August 14th, 2021
& Roman and Greeks before Arabs

The obsessed one mentioning the British again. LOL.

@goldvegas the author doesn’t live in an arab country, he lives in america, and he lives there because he is descended from slaves. So naturally slavery in the United States is a bit more important to him than slavery in the arab world.

@darkangel - The description mentions the British & the British Empire, or didn’t you notice?
August 14th, 2021
It’s somewhat clearer now why you’re not called “bright” angel.

I wonder if Horne mentions that the Native Americans took Westerners as slaves, and the the Irish were sold to Africans on the Barbary Coast. I have a friend from Illinois (which is paying reparations via remodeling black people’s homes), whose family was sold by the King of England because they couldn’t afford to pay taxes, but since he is white, he is not included in the reparations, never mind the fact that Illinois was a free state anyway, thus not guilty of partaking in the slave trade in the first place.

Thanks! Horne is brilliant!

@Jiminy Cricket
This is the kind of thing you guys tell yourselves all the time to justify your innate fear of Black people.

I wonder if they truly thought the Europeans could maintain the Trans-Atlantic slave trade without obtaining slaves directly from African tribes that kept slaves of their own.
The Ashanti tribe was a thing, and not the only tribe to sell its own into slavery.

Nicely said colsonuva.

typical woke gay snowflake BS. Blame people 400 years ago for tyrone’s current unwillingness to get a job and stop shooting kids. Trash.

@craigpaul
What excuse do you have for what your uncle Cletus does to kids?

Nobody whining here plans to listen to this ha ha
Triggered by a title
Ethnography & archaeology makes clear violence & yeah, slavery, existed before whitey arrived. But was the character the same, or different? You gotta read to move beyond this boring objection
