1619: The White Lion vs. The Mayflower – What Schools Won’t Teach

Описание: 📌 The True Beginning of America’s History: The White Lion & The Mayflower
Here is the SHOCKING untold story of the 1619 White Lion Slave Ship! Most of us believe we know how America began, but what if the real story started with a ship whose passengers history erased? While the Mayflower’s arrival in 1620 is widely taught in schools, few know that just a year earlier, in August 1619, another ship—the White Lion—landed in Port Comfort, Virginia. This moment marked the beginning of chattel slavery in America, a system that would shape the nation’s economic and social fabric for centuries.

In this video, we uncover the hidden history of the first recorded enslaved Africans in English America. How did these "20 and odd" individuals endure the brutal Middle Passage? Why is this event rarely taught in schools? And how does this untold history impact our understanding of America today?
