What are the initial thoughts on discussing race?

Unknown 0:02
Welcome back to Film Vs. History. We're joined by Bemi and Andrew from the We Saw That podcast for an audiovisual race war. I was waiting. I was wondering what's the intro going to be.
Andrew 0:26
I'll be the first you've had. Sorry? The first what? The flex. Yeah, definitely. Really?

How does the conversation shift towards historical context?

Andrew 0:32
Definitely.
Unknown 0:33
This is history. This is history on Finvans. Don't make you the last, all right? Let's have a good time.
Bemi 0:40
It's an experiment.
Unknown 0:41
Yeah, it's an experiment.
Bemi 0:42
You test to see if it works. Because you could have just had one, but you've gone two out the gate and you've never had any. That's risky.

What is the significance of white slavery in history?

Bemi 0:46
They're like buses. They're like buses. Or ships.
Unknown 0:53
Excuse me. Now this is a very sensitive topic for us. You come in at part two of the white slave story. Do you want to do a recap? Well, the word slave comes from Slav. They were the first slaves. Eastern Europeans, which kind of makes sense given how good they are at building stuff.

What parallels are drawn between historical and modern slavery?

Unknown 1:09
And we traced the white slaves were castrated and then sold to Muslim empires as eunuchs so they wouldn't fuck their wives. It's like London today. We're gone. Wow. Wow. Wow.
Wow.
Unknown 1:27
We're saying it's the long road to Ulez, which is modern white slavery. Sadiq or Massa, as we call him today. Yeah, so Sharia law forbid castrating other people, but you could buy a castrated person.

How do the Barbary Wars relate to the topic of slavery?

Unknown 1:42
And then you get sold into Mansa Musa, the Marlian Empire. Do you know about Mansa Musa? We do know about Mansa Musa. Because your family is Nigerian?
Andrew 1:48
My family is Nigerian. Mansa Musa, he's the OG...
Unknown 1:50
isn't the richest person that's ever lived yeah he lived on a gold mine he controlled all the salt money and he was black yeah it's Jeff Blackos he's like Amazon jungle jungle but today we ended with the start of the Barbary Pirates the sort of North Africans and this is very very serious now what we're going to talk about so no jokes about this it's very serious no some things are funny some things are off topic and you know as white people going through this history it's bringing back a lot trauma you have a lot of times before to be honest yes you do it traumatised me so where did the blacks go wrong
Andrew 2:29
This is what I'm saying. Fumbled.

What insights are shared about the economic implications of slavery?

Andrew 2:31
We fumbled the bag. We had it. And we've allowed them to do cultural appropriation and claim that they the slave masters. Whereas we had it first. These people always stealing our shit.
Bemi 2:45
Wiggers. Tired of it. Wow.
Andrew 2:47
Already throwing the W word out. Wow.

How does the discussion address reparations in a modern context?

Andrew 2:51
So how do we get back to that though? How do we bottle it?
Horatio Gould 2:54
Because I was looking at the thing with Czech Republic, Prague, kidnapping them whites.
Andrew 2:59
We fumbled the bag. Now we have to go on these guys' podcast. Now we here.
Unknown 3:07
Now we get a patron. Excuse me. This is a confrontation with our oppressors. Yes.

What conclusions are drawn about race and privilege at the end of the episode?

Unknown 3:17
This is... Racial question time. Okay, go on. Finn is literally releasing a book called Why I'm No Longer Talking to Racial Black People.
Bemi 3:29
Why I'm No Longer Talking to Racial Black People. Bro, I've been talking to black people about race. What is the origin of that book? They don't listen.
Andrew 3:36
White slavery. No, that book, Why I Don't Talk to White People About Race, I've only seen white people read it.
Bemi 3:42
Of course.
Andrew 3:42
On the cheap. White people just looking guilty, man. And they be reading it, yeah? Then they look up, make eye contact with me on the cheap. I ain't making you feel good.
Bemi 3:51
Read it, man.
Unknown 3:52
Put your head down, read. I saw a woman get that book out of her bag when they left Victoria on the way to Brixton on the tube. And you're like, cut, cut. But you're reading that from hybrid. She's reading the notes before, yeah. The research. So where is this Brixton?
Andrew 4:10
Before you get to Brixton, you've just got to look in for a chapter. I bet when whites do that, you know, when the blacks come out, they bring the book out, man. So they feel safe. Now we're robbing you still.
Unknown 4:19
Anyway, yes, you will be escorted out of the studio when we're done. Now, the Barbary pirates, the North African pirates, they peak between 1530 and 1780. We're talking about Algerians, Tunisians, Moroccans. This is very hard to say. Nearly 1.25 million white Europeans are enslaved over these years. Wow. Devastating numbers.
