“The slave flight hireling and grave” bit - is in reference to the slaves who defected - who escaped to fight for the British in order to gain freedom.
Francis Scott Key, an accomplished, well-respected attorney, participated in a number of cases involving slaves, one of which involved African slaves whose American ship had been shipwrecked and another vessel brought them to Savannah, Georgia. Key had argued for their freedom. Key was devoutly religious and prided himself as a humanitarian, which often led to great moral and personal contradiction. His religious convictions led him to campaign against the slave trade. Key throughout his career represented several slaves seeking their freedom in court.
Key fought to free over 400 slaves and fought for land for the slaves for over a decade. Key was nicknamed the 'The Ni**er Lawyer' because he publicly criticized slavery's cruelties and often volunteered to defend the downtrodden sons and daughters of Africa.
Let’s talk slavery. Blacks like to use the narrative that free blacks were taken by force from Africa. The truth is Black African slave owners sold African Blacks to America. Also Black African slave owners sold over 90 percent of all slaves to Europeans. And Without Black African slave owners there would have been no slavery in America or the New World.
Another interesting piece of history that is never mentioned by Black America is American Blacks owned tens of thousands slaves. Why no anger directed at Black American slave owners.
White slavery pre-dates black slavery in America. Whites were snatched from their homes and taken in chains to the great slave markets. At least 70,000 white men, women, and children from England and Ireland were shipped to the colonies to be sold as slaves on the auction block during the 170 years of British rule. Throughout the colonial period, white slaves remained the main labor force on the Virginia and Maryland plantations, outnumbering Africans by as many as four to one.
White Scottish and Welsh were also slaves. In ancient Greece, whites were slaves. In Ancient Rome, millions of whites were slaves. The Muslim world owned white slaves. White slaves were worked to death and women and children were made into prostitutes in the Muslim world. Until the fall of Muslim Spain, whites made up the majority of slaves in Spain.
America is the only country on earth where tens of thousands of whites died for blacks. No other country on earth has spilled more blood for blacks or spent more money on blacks than the United States. The United States has spent trillions on trying to implement blacks into the American fabric of society.
Arabs held blacks as slaves for over 1400 years and whites for 300 years. Today black descendants of African slaves have the highest standard of living of any blacks living anywhere in the world. Africa today is a horrible place to live. Black Americans should be thankful to American whites for bringing blacks to this great land.
You hear no complaints from whites for having their ancestors as slaves. None. No whatsoever.
Black Americans should direct their anger towards Africa, Black African slave owners, and the Arab slave owners for black slavery since white America is responsible for blacks having reached the greatest levels of freedom and prosperity the black race has ever known. Kaepernick should be taking a knee to protest Africa, Black African slave owners, black slave owners who owned black slaves, and Muslim and Arab slave owners for black slavery with one hand over his heart to salute the flag that brought blacks the the highest standard of living of any blacks living anywhere in the world.
