RE: A Look at History and the Transatlantic Slave Trade in My Collage for LMAC #161

hundreds of thousands of Irish were sold as slaves in the 17th, 18th, and 19th Centuries, men, women, and children.

I did not know that. Of course I'm horrified, but not surprised. The English did not regard the Irish as civilized human beings.

It may have been true at one time that the sun never set on the British Empire, but it was also true that the sun never rose for those who lived under British colonial rule.

Thank you for visiting and commenting. I'm happy my simple animation amused you :)
