Slavery Nearly Universal Among ‘Native American’ Indian Tribes Prior To White Settlement

June 17, 2020 By CFT Team -- 7 Comments

According to Almon Lauber’s booklet, Indian Slavery In Colonial Times Within The Present Limits Of The United States, published by the prestigious Faculty of Political Science at Columbia University in 1913, slavery and the slave trade were nearly universally practiced among the ‘Native’ Indians prior to the appearance of the White man on the North American continent:

Exerpt:

…Individual instances of slavery proceeded from other causes. The Indians were inveterate gamblers, and when nothing else was left, both men and women not infrequently staked themselves to serve as slaves in case of loss. Such slavery was sometimes for life, and sometimes for such short periods of time as a year or two. In case of famine, the Indians even sold their children to obtain food.

The slaves possessed by a given Indian tribe were oftener obtained through barter with other tribes. This intertribal traffic, though probably not common, was evidently far-reaching. Owing to the wandering habits of the Indians and their custom of bartering goods with other tribes, articles of copper became distributed throughout the North west, especially in Wisconsin. The Illinois Indians possessed slaves who came from the sea coast, probably Florida. The Illinois also bartered their slaves with the Ottawa for guns, powder, kettles and knives, and with the Iroquois to obtain peace. Marquette found (1673) among the Arkansas Indians, knives, beads and hatchets which had been obtained partly from the Illinois and partly from the Indians farther to the east. The Jesuit, Grelon, relates that in Chinese Tartary he met a Huron woman whom he had known in America.

The transition from the method of obtaining slaves by actual warfare and barter to that of mere slave raids was an easy one. The desire to gain the reputation of a skillful hunter, and, still more, of a brave warrior, and thus to win the esteem and regard of his tribesmen, was inherent among the natives. To be a brave warrior was to be truly a man. So eager was the Indian to acquire the name of “brave ” that he unhesitatingly underwent any hardships to obtain slaves or scalps as a proof of his qualifications for the title. This means of obtaining slaves was used by the stronger tribes like the Illinois and the Iroquois.

The slaves bartered by the Illinois were generally taken in the territory beyond the Mississippi. This the Illinois were better able to do after the coming of the whites, as they were provided with guns, while the Indians to the westward had no weapons of the sort. One of the chief sources from which these slaves was obtained was the Pawnee nation. In 1719, Du Tisne wrote to Bienville, the commandant at New Orleans, that the Pawnee were afraid of him when he arrived among them, as their neighbors, the Osage, had made them believe that his intention was to entrap and enslave them.

The same practice was followed by the other northern tribes. La Jeune, in 1632, found slaves among the Algonquin. The Indians of the Great Lakes region had a young Esquimaux as a slave in 1646. Tonti found Iroquois slaves among the Huron and Ottawa. The Dutch navigator, Hendrickson, in 1616, found the Indians of the Schuylkill River country holding Indian slaves.

And yet our government-subsidized Marxist indoctrination centers — also known as ‘schools’ — insist that the “noble” Native Indians were morally superior to the evil, greedy White Man who “genocided” tens of millions of them while robbing them blind.

Natives would trade their own mothers and daughters away for a pretty handful of beads if it suited them, as Lauber’s book makes clear.

Read the Captivity Narrative of Mary Rowlandson, a young White woman who was abducted during an Indian raid in Massachusetts in 1675 — and you will quickly be disabused about any romantic idea of the “noble” Indian.

Captivity Narratives contain a wealth of first-hand eyewitness accounts of what it was like for White colonists to interact with these “noble” savages — E. F. Abbott’s captivity narrative of Mary Jemison is especially enlightening.

The White Man called them “savages” for a reason –and it wasn’t because of “racism” — it was from observing their often sadistic and inhuman behavior.

And, no, the Indians did not behave this way in response to how the White man treated them — “the devil made them do it” excuse.

That they would have an scruples against trading in slaves is laughable — they certainly didn’t learn slavery from the White Man.

And that explains why some the earliest owners of Black slaves in America were Native Indians.

But since none of this fits into the official kosher narrative of “White Man Bad, Red Man Good” promoted in schools, this reality must be virtually ignored, except by certified academic Leftists who will use this historical information “responsibly” — certainly not to incite “racial hatred”.

“The Captive” painted by Eanger Irving Couse, 1891

Thousands of descendants of black slaves were brought to Oklahoma more than 170 years ago by Native American slave owners. The Cherokee nation voted after the Civil War to admit the slave descendants to the tribe. But recently, the tribe’s Supreme Court ruled that a 2007 tribal decision to kick the so-called ‘Freedmen’ out of the tribe could be upheld.

    Aaaaahhh yes… the ‘indians’. As a whole – and there are exceptions in both races – indians are only slightly ‘better’ than africans, and this only due to more laziness. The propensity for violence, now, is less due to your and my paying for their continuous drunkeness for longer than weve been paying for the africans. AND, the jew hasnt been as successful in indoctrinating them into victimhood status in their [the indians] minds. Oh, the fact that there are fewer of them than africans and they dont breed as well may have something to do with the jews decision on where to concentrate their efforts also.
    Not only were the indians slavers, they were mass murderers, guilty of ‘genocide’ and sadistic torturers. IF one can find any more ‘contemporary’ books or newspaper articles left in larger libraries, read of the attrocities committed by ‘indians’ against whites, and even against their own; it will shock you quite frankly.
    Like the african, their “religion{s}” are satanic. Look at their ‘practices’. Shoot, just loook at any ‘real’ indian blanket – they always have a single red thread woven thru , the purpose of which is to allow a conduit for demons…
    Today, the ‘indians’ get free almost everything, pay virtually no taxes, are allowed to operate tax free businesses and places of vice unavailable to others, as well as claim themselves to be ‘sovereign nations’ within our own borders! ALL on your dollar.
    As stated above, they are NOT indigenous, but have travelled over. They admit this in their own ‘oral traditions’ that have relatively recently been written down as they have had no written language until ~150 years ago. For example, when interviewed some hundred years ago about the ‘cliff dwellings’ in the Soouthwest, the tribal elders satted flatly that they were there when the indians arrived… [see the book ‘Christians Before Columbus’ , ‘In Plain Sight’ , etc etc] The northern tribes are indeed mongol mongrels, but in the south they are basically central/south americans / mexicans. Easy to tell the differences if youre unfortunate enough to live around a bunch of them – the northern tribes have an asian look and the southern ones are often hard to tell apart from the invading wetbacks.

    Yes, the ‘noble redman’ is indeed one of the finer examples of hominids…they left their elderly alone w/o supplies upon a hill in the winter when the old person got past ‘useful’ , they hunted an area out until there were no more animals and the ponds and creeks were so polluted that they would not sustain life and then moved on, their methods of torture were ‘ingenious’ – a trait obviously inherited from their asian genes- and believed that they garnered strength from the suffering of their victims and that the screams of anguish were a pleasing offering to their ‘great spirit’ [satan].
    Slavers, human traffickers, thieves, murderers and now aggrieved parasites…yep, the noble red man…

    SIBERIAN/MONGOLIAN immigrants ….. not “indigenous”
    SIBERIAN Immigrants of MONGOLIAN ( you recall the sophisticated, charming, Mongols?) stock who were busy sticking stone spears into one another and living on the primitive Tribal level. Of course many in Central America graduated to ritualized Human Sacrifice the Northern Sacrifices remained fireside brutalities.
    The Okunev people are seen as the Siberian ethnic grouping most closely related to Native Americans. In other words, it was ancestors of the Okunevs who populated America, evidently using primitive boats to venture to the ice-covered Beringia land bridge some 12,600 years ago.
    There was a war in the mid-1600s you’ve never heard of, ending in the near-extermination of the Erie by the Iroquois and others. Captives were sold into slavery and thus disbursed from the Cherokees in the Carolinas to the Senecas in Canada. All that remains of the Erie are place names—a lake, a city, a canal and so forth—and fugitive traces for linguists and historians to puzzle out. This is common. This is the way of the world. We’re all made from fragments of such disasters.
    About 10 miles east of St. Louis, Missouri, The forgotten people called the Mississippians built huge mounds in a “city” called after the Cahokia tribe that lived in the area when the French first arrived, But life in Cahokia wasn’t entirely fun and games. There is also evidence that the Cahokians engaged in human sacrifice. At one mound in particular, dubbed Mound 72, researchers found the remains of 272 people. In one instance of sacrifice, 39 people were lined up in front of a pit and clubbed one by one, falling into a mass grave. Two dozen different mass graves populate Mound 72, all of which contain the remains of people who had been strangled, clubbed, and even buried alive.

        @anargie…..I discussed Tim Kaine who is obviously ignorant of history and clearly pandering to the feelings of the Democrat party voter base. People don’t like to hear it but without African’s selling African’s to the Jews who conducted their business from the comfort of Amsterdam, the Netherlands the trans-Atlantic cattle slavery would be impossible. The plantation colony of my country of birth was a majority Jewish affair….something that many people don’t know about.. Thanks for the compilation.
