Frequent VladTV collaborator Lord Jamar is back, and here he dissects Ben Carson’s decision to refer to African slaves as American immigrants. Jamar argues that early African slaves were tricked, not forced, into slavery by Europeans who promised them a better life in the Americans. Therefore, LJ contends, early slaves did have an immigrant mentality. Vlad and Lord Jamar go on to discuss Emmett Till and the role of mass media in catalyzing social change. Watch above.
