Mozilla Firefox (Private Browsing) Bandeirantes The bandeirantes (Portuguese pronunciation: [bɐ̃dejˈɾɐ̃t(ʃ)is], "followers of the banner") were 17th century Portuguese Brazilian slavers, fortune hunters and adventurers from the São Paulo region[Note 1], the Captaincy of São Vicente (later called the Captaincy of São Paulo). They were the leaders of expeditions called bandeiras (Portuguese, "flags") that penetrated the interior of Brazil far south and west of the Tordesillas Line of 1494 that divided the Spanish (west) domain from the Portuguese (east) domain in South America. São Paulo was the home base for the most famous bandeirantes[Note 2]. Bandeiras[edit] The bandeiras were the expeditions by citizens of the São Paulo region (Paulistas), known then as the Captaincy of Sao Vicente, designed to enslave indigenous peoples and to find precious metals and stones. The course of the bandeira route was a difficult and perilous one. The Monument to the bandeiras, a stone sculpture group by Victor Brecheret, located in São Paulo, Brazil

In defense of the sanctimonious women's studies set. On Monday night, Donald Trump’s wife Melania touched hearts as she addressed the Republican National Convention, sharing the lessons she learned growing up as a black girl on the South Side of Chicago. As first spotted by journalist Jarrett Hill, Melania’s speech bore more than a passing resemblance to another speech at another convention about eight years ago — Michelle Obama’s 2008 address to the Democratic National Convention. The cribbed portion discussed the values that Michelle and Melania apparently share, including working hard for what you want in life and keeping your word.

West Africa Squadron HMS Black Joke and prizes (clockwise from top left) Providentia, Vengador, Presidenta, Marianna, El Almirante, and El Hassey In 1819 the Royal Navy created a naval station in West Africa at a captured slaving port that the British renamed Freetown. This would become the capital of the first British colony in West Africa, Sierra Leone. Most of the slaves the squadron freed would choose to settle in Sierra Leone as they would not have to fear being re-enslaved, a danger in any other part of Africa. Until 1835 the Royal Navy was only allowed to take slavers that actually had slaves aboard. The Royal Navy considered the West Africa Station one of the worst postings due to the high levels of tropical disease. As the 19th century wore on, the Royal Navy also began interdicting slavery in North Africa, the Middle East, and the Indian Ocean. Between 1808 and 1860 the West Africa Squadron captured 1,600 slave ships and freed 150,000 Africans.[8] Notes[edit] See also[edit] References[edit]

frontline: saudi time bomb?: interviews: mai yamani For people who don't understand, the Shi'a and the Sunni are, at times, blood enemies. Specifically because, prior to the unification, in the great mosque of Mecca and in Medina, all the Islamic schools of thought were represented. They had all the Sunni schools of thought; they had the Shi'a; they had each one their own imam and somehow in different corners. ... It was after the unification of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in 1932 that a process of national homogeneity was attempted. That was gradual. ... ... Actually, yes. ... So the dominant religion, the state religion in Saudi Arabia is this pure, stricter form of Islam? Yes. How does that help us understand that 15 of the 19 people who died as hijackers on Sept. 11 come from Saudi Arabia? This I'm finding very curious, and I think deserves investigation. Meaning they're from the Mecca and Medina area? Or from the tribes of the Hejaz. Which is in the south? Which is in the south, bordering on Yemen. That was a homogenization of thought.

Center for American Progress Barbary pirates A Sea Fight with Barbary Corsairs, c. 1681 British sailors boarding an Algerine pirate ship The Barbary pirates, sometimes called Barbary corsairs or Ottoman corsairs, were pirates and privateers who operated from North Africa, based primarily in the ports of Algiers, Tunis, and Tripoli. This area was known in Europe as the Barbary Coast, a term derived from the name of its Berber inhabitants. Their predation extended throughout the Mediterranean, south along West Africa's Atlantic seaboard and even South America,[1] and into the North Atlantic as far north as Iceland, but they primarily operated in the western Mediterranean. Corsairs captured thousands of ships, and long stretches of coast in Spain and Italy were almost completely abandoned by their inhabitants, discouraging settlement until the 19th century. History[edit] Piratical activity by Muslim populations had been known in the Mediterranean since at least the 9th century and the short-lived Emirate of Crete. 16th century[edit]
