    Default Are modern Nigerian/Congolese slave owner's descendants?

    Since enslaved sub saharan africans were sent to the Americas it automatically means those who stayed were those who sold them? If so, why black movements don't attack them?

    The biggest misconception is that Africans saw themselves as the same. Back then there was no concept of Pan-Africanism, rival ethnic groups captured and sold other ethnic groups to slave traders.

    There have been some African tribal chiefs who have apologized to the descendants of enslaved Africans for their ancestors selling them off.

    Yes but those who stayed are more likely to be from the same dominant tribe, I mean most nigerians are yorubas and hausas today, they historically enslaved igbos

    There have been some African tribal chiefs who have apologized to the descendants of enslaved Africans for their ancestors selling them off.

    I believe they shouldn't accept it, afaik western whites already recognize their mistakes, even so they still talk about their debt to black people

    Not sure, but this is an interesting question.

    I mean, everyone involved in the Atlantic slave trade is dead, why should anyone living be attacked for wrongs their ancestors committed?

    I agree with that, but if black movements blame current whites for what colonizers did (even tho I believe nowaday most whites in new world are of immigrant heritage, not colonizers), they shouldn't be africanists either

    I am starting to wonder: were they really enslaved for being blacks? or it would be harder to catch other people such as undeveloped/peasants europeans/arabs/north africans bcs they had strong ways to deffend themselves? I mean logistically it would be easier

    Also how much $$ dominant african tribes used to sell them? Barter maybe?

    I am not expert on that subject, afaik Congolese King even studied in one of the Portuguese universities, he didn't suffer racism over there for being black. That's why I really wonder if black people were enslaved for being blacks, I used to think it was due racism but currently I am not so sure
