New York City and the State are Named After a Slave Trader - Plus the family that owns The New York Times were slaveholders
How long till the Cancel Mob insists on a name change for the city and the state? All of those white guilt Leftists up there will fold like a cheap suit. Maybe they should change it back to New Amsterdam.

New York is named after the Duke of York (King James II.)

"The city and state of New York in what is now the United States were named for this particular Duke of York. When his elder brother, King Charles II, died without heirs, James succeeded to the throne as King James II, and the title once again merged into the Crown."

[link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)]

The Duke of York (James II) owned the Royal African Company. The company was given a monopoly on trade between the colonies and West Africa, including slaves.

King Charles II granted a charter to the Company of Royal Adventurers Trading to Africa. Led by the king’s younger brother James, the Duke of York (later King James II), this group had a monopoly on British trade with West Africa, including gold, silver and slaves. Thanks to England’s war with the Netherlands, the original company collapsed under mounting debts in 1667, reemerging in 1672 with a new royal charter and a new name: the Royal African Company (RAC).

And then there is this:

The leader of so much of this woke bullshit, the New York Times, should be closed also. They should be shut down for their horrendous history of slavery. Not one more confederate monument until the NYTs is closed.

The family that owns The New York Times were slaveholders

New York Is Named After A Horrendous Slave Trader


New York, both the city and the state, is named after the house of York and particularly for James Stuart, then Duke of York, one of the most successful slavers in colonial American history.

President Donald Trump wondered aloud during a raucous press conference Tuesday whether the impulse to tear down memorials to leaders of the Confederacy like Gen. Robert E. Lee would slip into calls to remove monuments to America’s founders, like Thomas Jefferson and George Washington, both of whom owned slaves. (RELATED: Trump: Should Statues Of Slave Owner George Washington Be Torn Down, Too? [VIDEO])

The memory of slavery is enshrined in the name New York as well as the name of the nation’s capitol, even though both cities have vastly changed from their christening.

James Stuart conquered the settlements between the Delaware and the Connecticut rivers from the Dutch in 1664, and the name of the principal port, New Amsterdam, was promptly changed to honor the new master. James’ brother, King Charles II of England, gave the territory to the duke in exchange for four beaver pelts annually.

I think We need to start a movement to give New York back to the native americans since the Island was bought for some beads. I think that was a bad deal and I think the native americans should get restitution for that deal since they owned the land. Actually Indians really didn't have a concept of land ownership but We will ignore that fact just so liberals can get screwed.

Yes. All New Yorkers should have to pay reparations to the native Americans before any reparations to descendants of slaves.

My personal thoughts & posts are mine alone.
I Love God, Jesus, good people, and the U.S.A. the way the Framers signed the Constitution and Bill of Rights.
In my real world life I don't have a problem with standing up to those with solid evidence of corruption from either side, of any issue or place. Many are they in this world that need to be rooted out.
That makes me a target to be destroyed by very powerful people, I understand this.
At some point we have to stand up for what is right before God. I have done this, lived this way, and will continue to do so till they finish me off or I croak of natural causes.

The woke mob should be forced to purge all of their icons before attacking another one of ours. After they have renamed New York and paid reparations to the Native Americans, then maybe we can talk about renaming some of the confederate military bases.

How can you compare the evils the godfather of slave traders to a confederate general? They are not even in the same league.
