This is how the first (1st) Black
Slave Trade began back in 1441.
The ‘modern’ trade of Black Slaves began half
a century before Christopher Columbus
crossed the Atlantic Ocean in 1492.
In
1441, a Portuguese sailor named Antam
Goncalvez brought the first Europeans to the west coast of Africa, close to
Cape Bajador in the south of the Sahara.
Once there, Goncalvez discovered a
‘commodity’ which he thought could please his king. He then finally decided to
capture ten (10) Black people and transported them to Lisbon (in Portugal).
Portugal was then under the control of Prince Henri the navigator, this man
was not only the Prince but also a member of the Christian Catholic Portuguese dynasty,
under the orders of Rome. Goncalvez offered Prince Henri the navigator these
ten (10) Black people as a gift, treating these human beings as nothing but a
mere commodity.
Prince Henri was so pleased with these Ten
(10) Black Slaves that he decided to DONATE them to Pope Eugene IV (the 4th). In return, the Pope gave
Prince Henri the navigator the Title Rights of all the properties to the east
of Blanco Cape (a point located on
the west coast about 300 miles above Senegal.
Summary:
Orchestrated by Antam Goncalvez (Portuguese Sailor), who brought his missionaries
to Cape Bajador on the west coast of Africa 300 miles from above Senegal.
These Slaves (10 Black people) were gifted to
Prince Henri (Portuguese Christian
Prince ruler), who in turn gave (WITHOUT Permission/Right and Authority) Prince Henri the Title Rights to any property (land) to be discovered to the east of
Blanco Cape above Senegal.
