Man Claims Bahamians Have a Slave Mentality

Crime is out of control; it’s the master’s fault, aka the government.  Illegal immigration is out of control; it is the master’s fault, aka the government. The economy is bad; it’s the master’s fault, aka the government. The master will fix the problem.  He knows best.

But what are “you” doing about it?  We should know by now that the change starts with us.  During the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade, Africans were illegally sold as slaves.  Many of these Africans ended up in the Caribbean and thus were forced into a new way of life.

The indoctrination of Africans (Blacks) into mental slavery and European culture continues even today.  The celebration of Guy Fawkes Day, Halloween and that “foreign is better” are just a few examples of the former in The Bahamas.  We as Black Bahamians are mentally enslaved and even though we are free physically, we face some of the most dangerous times in our history.  One hundred and seventy-seven years after the proclamation was read to free slaves in the British colonies, Bahamians still continue to have a slave mentality.
