America’s Buried History of White Slavery

The best way to forget history is to rewrite it. And in the rewriting, to carefully delete references to any historical events or circumstances we find uncomfortable.

Thus, American history books are totally silent on the matter of these white slaves, mostly of European stock with a great number of Irish, but also English and Scottish, who were kidnapped or otherwise forcibly deported to the US as slave labor.

In fact, an examination of available documentation indicates that white slavery in the Americas was a much more extensive operation than was black slavery, and the numbers may be severely under-estimated

This glistening blue water that grows on us like life life and romance often saw no light at the end of the tunnel for many. Andamans that we see today was destroyed long ago, long before we were born. Not just the indigenous communities but the mass execution of political freedom in the name of Kalapani. While many died of torture and hanging very few records highlight the extend of medical torture inflicted by British army doctors. If the Nazis doctors in Hitler's reign are executed for their experiments then the army doctors of cellular Jail were equally responsible for killing numerous prisoners with their catheter feeding experiments. A Guardian report titled "survivors of our hell" published back in 2001 chronicles the whole idea of Kalapani and it's psychological advantage. Having sought Australia as refuge they finally settled in Andamans as such a penal island transportation was banned in Australia in 1850. So, after the sepoy mutiny this followed, thousands even met the journey and died at sea, which lead to further allotment of people Burma and other regions. India was fighting freedom but no one was fighting for this god forsaken land. Same is going today. The land is riffed of many basic things including higher education. There's no masters degree imparting courses here. Here's how the British came to use Kalapani, " The British military doctors had admired the penal settlement unveiled by the French six years earlier on a rocky islet off Guyana. But their Devil's Island would be far more ambitious. The doctors consulted Hindu texts and decided to create a psychological gulag based around the Sanskrit term kalapani. It literally meant "black water", but kalapani was also a myth, an ancient Indian story that told how the faithful were parted from their souls by crossing the sea. The doctors knew that kalapani would be feared across the Empire as a godless place, a journey that would strip the transported of their caste, community and creed." #andamanislands #trauma #amazingandaman #kalapani #kalapanijail #cellularjail #armydoctors #britisharmydoctors #medicalcruelty #medicalkilling #cruelhistory #heritage #history #heritageblogger (at Port Blair) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6IaQYcAPeT/?igshid=1rr5ylut0j1th
