The mortality of African people, while being brutalized across the middle passage, was regarded merely as a lost of profit from slave trading activities. No concerns were involved regarding the lost of lives of Africans, who were only regarded as goods or merchandise, to be sold for a profit.

In the year 1659, a Dutch slave trading ship, called the St.Jan, left Africa with 219 Africans, as cargoe to the Western Hemispere, to be sold for a profit, but 110 of these Africans died crossing the middle passage.

In 1678, another slave trading ship called the Arthur, one of the ships of the Royal African Company, a European business, left Africa with with a cargo of 417 Africans, again to be sold for a profit in the West Indies, but 88 of them died in transit across the Middle Passage.

The Martha, another criminal slave trading ship, left Africa with 447 Africans, and sailed across the middle passage, and arrived in Barbadoes, with only 385, which means the 62 Africans perished in transit across the Middle Passage.

Then the Coaster, another slave trading ship, took on 150 Africans, from Mama Africa, and caused 37 of them to perish, across the Middle Passage.

The slave ship Hannibal, another European slave trading ship, left Africa with a cargo of 700 Africans, in the year 1694, to be sold as merchandise, as were their criminal practices, but 320 were buried in a watery grave on the voyage.

So out of a total of 1,933 Africans, who were kidnapped across the Middle Passage, 617 died, after being kidnapped, and smuggled away from their families and villages. So when these people, who's ancestors were slave masters, announce that they are billionaires, there is a connection, between what their ancestors left behind for them, which can only be described as stolen. 500 years of stealing from another race of people, is a very long time, and this stolen legacy adds up.
Again I send many oceans of blessings and self determination to African people everywhere.
