Description: This episode examines to what extent racism is a product of 17th century economic globalisation. With the huge profits of racism fuelling the slave trade, justification for racism was emphasised by generalisations of the inferiority of non-white Europeans. This was challenged during the Age Of Enlightenment during the 18th century, as well as by slaves themselves, particularly the Black Jacobins of Haiti in the 1790's who, spurred on by the French Revolution, campaigned for their rights and defeated their French masters as well as British invaders.

ProtoCosmos ::: Favorites The real scum of the earth were the leaders and the wealthy of the time throughout the nations. The common people weren't innately bad,they just followed the ones in power(much like today)blindly. It's embarrassing. The degraded ones were not the slaves, but the enslavers.Terrible stewards of the power they had(and have). 07-09-19 13:59:16 __________________________________________________
