Right your going to go around telling people how I'm wrong but you cant give ONE EXAMPLE. I'm unconcerned with people who take counsel such as yours. When I say face value I meant the video. Its true, I didn't look further into documented evidence of Jews and Slavery, But I didn't see that in the video either. Just some name dropping and generalizations. Its like claiming something is so obvious that they don't need to give one example of concrete evidence. Its like if it so obvious what I said is ignorant give one example. Where is the evidence that Jews initiated, and overwhelmingly perpetrated slavery? Because that is the video's claim. I hear the video and like I said the curse of Ham is a gentile invention and People who convert from Judaism to enslave people AREN'T STILL JEWS.
Slavery happened under the authority of European nations. Colonies were Gentile dominion. Therefore THEY are responsible for whatever its citizens may have been engaging in. If your looking for some money or an apology or an acknowledgement of rasponsiblity, Don't come to "the Jews", Go to Israel, Go to England, Go to the US, Go to Portugal GOVERNMENT Its dem governements and dem systems that responsible, Not Jews. I and I Just a convenient scape goat. When they want to take it out of the hands of nations and put it on a religion, ethnic group, and sub-race of people, suprise suprise ..the jews...thats when holocausts happen. I mean what you want "white people" to say yeah we sorry? White people? What is "white people"? I'm not saying that a Jew has never made a mistake in all of history, Just that the desire to focus on them and not nations is bigoted in itself. If you can prove that Israel have direct rasponsiblity for slavery and think you deserve recompense then go for it. But its not Jews you after its the Nation of Israel, the Nation of Brazil, the US nation. Go get it by all means, I'll help you.

Here's a few thoughts read at your own risk its sloppy.
Beyond that it gets pretty hairy. If your not going to go through the avenue of nations, you'll have to go to families I guess. One idea is go to nations and ask them to investigate their citizens who profited from slavery. But alot of that is undocumented. So you have for example the Rockefeller's, if you can demonstrate that this family was directly responsible for the enslavement of millions and millions more subsequent displacement and poverty then I suppose you could bring a monetary compensatory claim against them, But the statute of limitations is well expired for that so you'd have to work out a special deal, see this is why I think nations is the best bet. Jews have been kicked around for awhile and the consensus pretty much is that you got to dust yourself off and put your nose back on the grind stone, Babylon don't pay. But I never see black people do that. No leadership, No organization. Maybe its a mistake to even talk about "black people" as a unified people to begin with. .Things happen, but Iveryone equal, Iveryone can grow dem corn, and make babies or what? Blacks want other people to take care of them? I know my people highly self motivated and we don't expect anything from anybody and don't have time to wonder whose rasponsible for the bad shit that happen to us, who to blame, we just move foward giving Ises. If someone enslaved us even the thought of asking for compensation might be beneath us, We don't need anything but our freedom, Self determination is the key and welfare is its enemy. Racism does not equal slavery. I suppose you could say that Africa is not free, but maybe nowhere is free. In Economic warfare what does it mean to be free? Is only the absolute richest man free since everyone else is subject to the power of the dollar? Or for land to be free? Seems a little late for that. Selassie worked with nations. If blacks want to repatriate and free Africa they can do that with democracy, but blaming other people and expecting a handout just makes thing worse.
