The Colonialists They NEVER Talk About - It Breaks Their Narrative!

Everyone knows about the British, French, and Spanish empires. Schools teach about European colonialism, its brutality, its exploitation, and the way it reshaped the world. But there's one empire they rarely mention—one that expanded centuries earlier, across more continents, and lasted over a thousand years. This video uncovers the forgotten colonial power of the Islamic Arab empire. From Persia to Spain, entire civilizations were wiped out or forced to adopt a new language, religion, and identity. Millions were enslaved. Ancient cultures like the Zoroastrians, Copts, and Berbers were reduced to shadows of their former selves. The Arab slave trade spanned Africa, Europe, and Asia, predating the Atlantic trade and outlasting it by centuries. Why is this history ignored? Why is it controversial to bring it up? And what does that say about how we treat different kinds of empire? Welcome to the story of the colonialists they never talk about.
