There are some intriguing similarities between the history of the United States of America and that of South Africa.
Shortly after Portuguese explorer Bartholomew Diaz first landed on the shores of South Africa in 1488, the Spanish explorer Christopher Columbus landed in the Americas in 1492.
From the 1600s onwards both America and South Africa were settled by pilgrims from Holland, France, England, Scotland and Germany seeking religious freedom.

Obituary of John Adams
October 30, 1735-July 4, 1826
John Adams, 91 years of age, died on Tuesday, July 4, 1826, from heart failure at his home in Quincy, Massachusetts, United States.
John Adams was born on October 30, 1735, in Braintree (now Quincy), Massachusetts Bay, British America to the late John Adams Sr and Susanna Boylston. Adams was the first child of three children brother to the late Elihu Adams and Peter Adams. John Adam senior was a descendant of Henry Adam, English emigrants to the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1638. His farmer was a farmer, town councilman, and the deacon of the congressional church. His mother, Susanna Boylston Adams, was a descendant of a prominent loyal family of Boylston of Brookline in colonial Massachusetts.
At the age of 16, John Adams earned a scholarship to study law at Harvard University. As an enthusiast scholar, John keenly studied the work of prominent scholars such as Plato, Cicero, Thucydides, and Tacitus. Despite his father's desire for John to enter Ministry, John studied law in the office of James Putnam, a prominent city lawyer. John earned his master's degree in 1758 and became admitted to the bar at the age of 23. After completing his studies at Harvard University, John began the habit of writing about events and impressions of statemen like James Otis Jr (1761).
John Adams married the late Abigail Smith on October 25, 1764. Together they had six children, namely Abigail (1765), John Quincy (1767), Susanna (1768), Charles (1770), Thomas Boylston (1772), and Elizabeth (1777). Political interest regularly separated Adams from his family. Drawing inspiration from Otis, Adams chanted his cause of the American colonies. In 1965, John Adams identified himself with patriot cause from official opposition of the 1965 Stamp Act. Adams expository “Canon and Feudal,” a response to the act by British Parliament, was published in Boston Gazette. John alluded that, “Stamp Act taxed people without consent and subjected them to be tried by a jury of peers.” Following heated debates after two months, John denounced Stamp Act publicly in a speech delivered to the council and governor of Massachusetts. Aware of the political quagmire, John refused to be drawn to mob actions and public demonstration by Samuel Adams.
Adams moved to Boston in April 1768 to enhance his political career. In 1770, Adams presented British soldiers in a lawsuit for killing five civilians (Boston Massacre). Moved by the defense for people right, Adam argued that in a fair trial, every person deserves attorney representation. During the trial, Adams blamed the rowdy mob. The jury found two of the eight soldiers guilty and convicted them for manslaughter, while six were acquitted. His defense prowess enhanced his reputation as a generous, courageous, and fair man. In 1774, Adams was elected to the Massachusetts Assembly and was among the five representatives of the colony in Continental Congress ...

NORTH AMERICAN CULTURE OF WHITE SUPREMACYMurphy Browne
White supremacy in North America is a culture that has been practiced since the first group of white people arrived in this part of the world and continues to this day in the 21st century. It has morphed from the blatant murder of the indigenous people and the barbaric enslavement of Africans for centuries to today where white police routinely kill unarmed African American men, women and children without being held accountable.
On Monday November 14, 1960 a six year old African American child was the first to integrate the William Frantz Elementary School in New Orleans, Louisiana. She was subjected to vile abuse from white men and women who were bent on preventing African Americans from living as human beings with inherent human rights. This child was threatened with death by vicious mobs of white men and women who took the time to riot every day for an entire year at the school. Six year old Ruby Nell Bridges had to be protected from the snarling, cursing mob of white adults every day by armed Federally appointed Marshalls as she entered the school. This was 55 years ago in the USA!
Suriname is a country in South America that was colonized by members of white tribes from the Netherlands. Some Africans enslaved by the Dutch men and women from the Netherlands fled the brutal and inhumane treatment to which they were subjected and lived in the forests of Suriname. One of the more shameful acts of that horrific period was the deliberate drowning of 664 African men, women and children. On January 1, 1738, the “Leusden” a ship owned by the Dutch West India Company was carrying 680 African men, women and children through Suriname when it was caught in a storm. The captain of the ship ordered the crew to lock the Africans below deck where they were shackled. He would not give them the opportunity to swim to safety and sentenced 664 African men, women and children to death by drowning as the boat sank in the Maroni River, and the crew escaped on lifeboats with 16 enslaved Africans who they sold in Suriname.
Barbados was the first island in the Caribbean that was colonized by European tribes from the British isles. Africans were taken to Barbados and enslaved by the English, Scottish, Irish, Welsh men and women. These enslaved Africans were worked to death to enrich the men and women from the British isles. When the British abolished slavery on August 1, 1834 the white men and women who had already made fortunes on the backs/unpaid labour of enslaved Africans received compensation for the loss of their "property"! The Africans were forced to work a further four years without pay (40-44 hours per week) to bankroll the reparations paid to their "former owners." The money paid to the enslavers did not come from the British taxpayers! The coerced unpaid labour of the Africans bankrolled the money their former enslavers received in compensation!
The celebration of Christmas did not begin until about 300 years after the person whose birth is supposedly celebrated on December 25! No one is even sure when he was born but his birthday is celebrated on December 25 on a day that was celebrated by pagans for centuries before he was born!
Kwanzaa is a Pan-African celebration which was initialized in the USA in 1966 and has since spread internationally celebrated by Africans on the continent and the Diaspora.
On Thursday, April 9, 2015 the descendants of enslaved Africans from Central, North and South America, the Caribbean and Europe gathered at the National/International Reparations Summit in New York City. The Institute of the Black World 21st Century (IBW) a leading research, policy and advocacy group hosted the National/International Reparations Summit in New York City from April 9 to12. The IBW which has offices in New York and Baltimore “emerged as an outgrowth of the State of the Black World Conference which attracted some 2,500 African American scholars, activists, organizers and concerned individuals to Atlanta in 2001.”
Howard Joel Munroe was an African Guyanese young man who was only twenty years old when he was murdered by a group of white supremacist youth on May21, 2001 in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. Many people believe the myth of Canada as a non-racist country. The murder of Howard Joel Munroe is one of many incidents that put the lie to that myth!!

2. organizing and recruiting for his coming revolt; sixteen members of his
conspiracy were hanged and four of his eight principal lieutenants in the
planned 1822 revolt were later identified as former members of the A.M.E.
church.”
As a free man who owned his home and was reasonably prosperous for someone of
his station it was a shock to White people in Charleston that Vesey at 55 years
old would lead a plot to end slavery. On June 28, 1822 at the trial of Denmark
Vesey the judge remarked: ”It is difficult to imagine what infatuation could
have prompted you to attempt an enterprise so wild and visionary. You were a
free man; were comparatively wealthy; and enjoyed every comfort, compatible with
your situation. You had therefore much to risk, and little to gain. From your
age and experience you ought to have known, that success was impracticable.”
Vesey as a free African man was at rick of being sold as long as slavery was an
American institution. Free Africans in Charleston were compelled to carry their
manumission papers with them at all times because of the risk that some White
person could claim to be their owner. Free Africans ran the risk of being
kidnapped by any White person, stripped of their manumission papers and sold
into slavery. Until 1837 there were no laws against abducting free Africans and
selling them into slavery. For these and many other reasons although Vesey was a
free man he wanted to see an end to the enslavement of Africans.
Following the trial and execution of the Africans who were accused of plotting
the uprising in Charleston, the AME church was burnt to the ground. Information
from the Emanuel A.M.E. Church - National Park Service website
(http://www.nps.gov/nr/travel/charleston/ema.htm) states that: ”During the Vesey
controversy, the AME church was burned. Worship services continued after the
church was rebuilt until 1834 when all-black churches were outlawed. The
congregation subsequently met in secret until 1865 when it was formally
reorganized, and the name Emanuel was adopted. Today, Emanuel AME Church is one
of more than 1400 historically significant buildings within the Charleston Old
and Historic District.” It was at this rebuilt Emanuel AME Church that on June
17, 2015 a 21 year old White supremacist terrorist massacred 9 African Americans
as they welcomed him into their church. Charleston, South Carolina which was
settled by British planters who immigrated from the British Caribbean island
colony Barbados beginning in 1670 set the slaveholding tone for that town they
named Charles Town. ”In early April 1670, the 220 ton frigate Carolina, six
months out from the island of Barbados, entered the waters forming what is now
the Charleston Harbor. The ship sailed up a shallow river to a point overlooked
by a heavily wooded bluff, and there about twenty white Barbadians disembarked
as part of the first permanent English-speaking settlement in South Carolina.”
According to author David Robertson these White Barbadians became rich on the
island by working the enslaved Africans to death on the sugar plantations in
Barbados and brought the same ”work ethic” to Charleston. ”The slave-generated
wealth of Barbados came at an appalling cost in African lives. Throughout the
seventeenth century, the island had one of the highest mortality rates for
blacks in the Western Hemisphere, and, whether from disease, malnutrition, or
torture, more died annually than were imported to work the great sugar
plantations. Unlike their English contemporaries in Massachusetts, Barbadians
seldom looked inward to their consciences, and so long as the supply of African
slaves seemed illimitable, their economy appeared untroubled.” That was the
beginning of the slave colony of Charleston, South Carolina which lasted until
the Civil war when Charleston struck the first blow which led to the Battle of
Fort Sumter (April 12”14, 1861.)
Ironically in the ”Charleston Courier” of Wednesday July 3, 1822 alongside a
notice of execution of Demark Vesey, Rolla Bennet, Batteau Bennet, Ned Bennet,
Peter Poyas and Jesse Blackwood there is a notice of the newly elected ”Officers
of the Charleston Bible Society” for the term 1822-1823 in which General C. C.
Pinckney is named as President. ”Charles Cotesworth Pinckney owned slaves
throughout his life and believed that the institution was necessary to the
economy of South Carolina. At the Constitutional Convention, he agreed to
abolish the slave trade in 1808, but opposed emancipation. In 1801, Pinckney
owned about 250 slaves. When his daughter Eliza married, Pinckney gave her fifty
