Papal Bull Dum Diversas
18 June, 1452
Pope Nicholas V issued the papal bull Dum Diversas on 18 June, 1452. It authorised Alfonso V of Portugal to reduce any “Saracens (Muslims) and pagans and any other unbelievers” to perpetual slavery. This facilitated the Portuguese slave trade from West Africa.
The same pope wrote the bull Romanus Pontifex on January 5, 1455 to the same Alfonso. As a follow-up to the Dum diversas, it extended to the Catholic nations of Europe dominion over discovered lands during the Age of Discovery. Along with sanctifying the seizure of non-Christian lands, it encouraged the enslavement of native, non-Christian peoples in Africa and the New World.
“We weighing all and singular the premises with due meditation, and noting that since we had formerly by other letters of ours granted among other things free and ample faculty to the aforesaid King Alfonso -- to invade, search out, capture, vanquish, and subdue all Saracens and pagans whatsoever, and other enemies of Christ wheresoever placed, and the kingdoms, dukedoms, principalities, dominions, possessions, and all movable and immovable goods whatsoever held and possessed by them and to reduce their persons to perpetual slavery, and to apply and appropriate to himself and his successors the kingdoms, dukedoms, counties, principalities, dominions, possessions, and goods, and to convert them to his and their use and profit -- by having secured the said faculty, the said King Alfonso, or, by his authority, the aforesaid infante, justly and lawfully has acquired and possessed, and doth possess, these islands, lands, harbors, and seas, and they do of right belong and pertain to the said King Alfonso and his successors”.
In 1493 Alexander VI issued the bull Inter Caetera stating one Christian nation did not have the right to establish dominion over lands previously dominated by another Christian nation, thus establishing the Law of Nations.
Together, the Dum Diversas, the Romanus Pontifex and the Inter Caetera came to serve as the basis and justification for the Doctrine of Discovery, the global slave-trade of the 15th and 16th centuries, and the Age of Imperialism.

Shit makes sense now. In the crypto thread, I called this cat a U.S. citizen and he went off the deep end telling me not to say that. Mind you, we talking about as it applies to tax law and moving money. We are U.S. citizens in that regard.
I was accused of being an agent.Shit seemed strange and had a 'moorish' angle to it. I tried to reason with the cat, but he does seem out there on some subjects.
Thutty eight hot lolDawg as hot as fish grease.

Sammy, what you do for a living? (Besides produce for Chingy)
You in here sounding like a litigator. We need to send you to law school.
Yo it's hilarious you remember that
I do a bunch of shit. But if I said my job/title, it would basically give my identity away instantly as there's only one of me on the planet and it's not exactly a low visibility position.
I do hang and work with a gang of attorneys though. Some of them have said stuff like that, but most of them wouldn't encourage people to go into law. We have great debates though.
you know that for many various reasons those numbers evened out...right?
They do not!!! 80% man,10% women over a 200+yrs?? Im not buying it!! Where did all these copper color people come from?? You really think euro's and african came to this country and knew who to farm the land, the weather changes, were water was located and so on?? If I took over a land or country, I would enslave those who were already here and take everything they had.. And they did!! If Im not mistaken your from the south,,, right??? Ask family member what great grandma was?? If your from africa, thats cool. But only 5% came here.. Go to the walter plecker era and see what that sorry piece of shit was doing to people of color!!
Bro no need to continue to talk to these clowns. They are europeans or agents...that is what i gather.
Mfs bumpin hard on bgol...they are the realest of the real....let them be that.
Great videos keep posting
Bruh I asked you to explain how a treaty signed in the 1800s between the US and Morocco was relevant to this discussion and instead of explaining it...
...you went full senile Dick Gregory ranting about google and Europe.
If you can't explain your position without accusations and insults how do you expect any reasonable person to consider what you're saying?
Are you a flat earther too?
Your smart...figure it out yourself
And that response makes you look like a complete fraud.
What's sad is these clowns really think Europeans sailed over here to a new land...set up shop 1 week sailed back with millions of slaves from 1400s-1863. They also believe Europeans was so smart they just sat down and created a government out of thin air. You see they have no clue about the Treaties and how they are still in full force as im typing this. They have Dr. King telling them in his own voice the truth but sat right here and said everything he stated was false and bullshit however these are the main mfs on here talking about white supremacy and have no fucking idea of what is really going on.
They think all the shit that has been done to us as a people in America is because of our skin color....our fucking skin color
These dudes are sad...
Ok..whatever makes you and your sister feel better
I like this
See...responses like that aren't insulting...just...odd.
I dont get it, bruh.. The same colony that enslaved and held their foot on our throat for all those years and still to this day.. And kats defend their narrative and will fight you over it!!! Thats sum sad stuff..Anyway, Ill keep droppin info in this thread!!!
Truth biggest enemy is the human ego!!!
All these straw men
Too soon bruh
Hell yeah..so will I...
Once you realize our people are asleep its up to us to try to wake a few.
And again I ask, are you saying that African historians in Africa are lying about US slavery too?
And again, where did i ever say africans didnt come here!!
Are you not making a point that original inhabitants of North America, before CACs showed up, were black and they were enslaved mostly, with only a few coming from Trans-Atlantic slave trade?
If so, that would contrary to what historians, domestically & abroad (including Africa), have documented evidence of.
There are European records, ledgers, full of dates, numbers, location of disembarkment.
There are ports with shackles in stone where large numbers of slaves were herded, loaded, & off loaded from ships, in N. America, S. America, & Caribbean.
Are you saying all of these things are a farce?
Also, what is the significance of establishing that African Americans are descendants of native blacks?
What purpose would that serve?
Sammy = light skin nino brown
