A nice metaphor by Papoose. Back in the early 16th century when the European nations started the colonization of the “New World” they very often took African’s from their home countries against their wills so that they can do various things to improve the colonies in the New World such as build roads, harvest crops etc. Slavery also largely existed in the European colonies in Africa. It wasn’t uncommon for 1/3 even ½ of the population of African countries to be enslaved. Do you have a picture of how many niggas Papoose rolled with?
