		<description><![CDATA[@Moniqtee:The slave trade in America was outlawed before most carribean nations excluding Haiti, which took over the Dominican Republic,DR then gained its freedom from Haiti in the 1840&#039;s (the spainards had no intention of freeing Dominicans). Slavery was legal in Puerto Rico until like the 1890&#039;s as well in Cuba.  I don&#039;t know where this myth that slavery was easy in the carribean has come from, the slaves were brutalized just like in America and cutting sugar cane is not a easy task. Yes the slaves were able to retain some of their native language and religious beliefs but they were still treated as human chattle.Before research I too listened to and believed the notion that slavery was different in latin america and the carribean.Now slaves in England were treated much different than in America and it was well respected  to have a dark &quot;pure&quot; African slave and this slave would often be taught proper English etiquite and allowed to sit at the dinner table(like a well behaved show piece).]]></description>

I mean keep it real find one person that isn&#039;t mixed with something other than something else that they don&#039;t show so obviously. Should we all just walk around with our family history in our wallets so we can display it to everyone everytime someone wants to know our race. Focus on something worth something, like a change!!!!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[cubsfan and moniQTee, I totally agree with you both. Back home where I am from you can not be ignorant on black history like what LaLa said thinking that in South America everybody is of one race when that is not true. The same applied for the West Indies too. I give LaLa props as a black latina for speaking out on this issue.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[@moniQTee

It wasn&#039;t that chattel slavery in the United States was worse than anywhere else, Other places such as the Carribean had a social buffer zone that mulattoes inhabhited, being a mulatto was considered being better than a black.  This sort of backward thinking still goes on in parts of the Carribean especially in the Dominican Republic where they still subjugate and discriminate against darker skinned Dominicans.   In America they had the one drop rule that seperated the races and tried to prevent race mixing, but was used to prevent black men from mixing with white women and not the other way around.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I bet most of these black latinos dont know shyt about Arturo Alfonso Schomburg

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A rturo_Alfonso_Schomburg

Arturo Alfonso Schomburg, also known as Arthur Schomburg, (January 24,1874 ⿿June 8, 1938), was a Puerto Rican historian, writer and activist in the United States who researched and raised awareness of the great contributions that Afro-Latin Americans and Afro-Americans have made to society. He was an important intellectual figure in the Harlem Renaissance. Over the years he collected literature, art, slave narratives and other materials of African history, which was purchased to become the basis of the Arthur Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, named in his honor, at the New York Public Library branch in Harlem.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ACTUALLY... this part is NOT TRUE:

&quot; The slave trade was bigger in the West Indies, Carribean, and Spanish territories.&quot;


America surpassed this because it took them MUCH LONGER to outlaw slavery... ALSO... the methods used here in the states, the practice of making generation after generation after generation....That was MAINLY practiced here in this country.

Black people from America really need to understand the difference of slavery as opposed to other places..American slaves were treated the absolute worst. The inhumanity thrust upon the American slave is unsurpassed by ANY.]]></description>
