He is glorifying liberation of his people not the genocide that accompanied it.
It's like if I said I support the US effort in WWII and you said that I am shamelessly glorifying throwing japanese in internment camps by doing so. Kanye's position is likely one of nuance.
That doesn't make it okay at all or something we should glorify. By that logic, the mass-rape of civilians during WW2 should be glorified and celebrated. No.
Ridiculous parallel. What "mass-rape" are you referring to? Mass bombings maybe? Dresden? Tokyo? Berlin? If you want to make arguments please refer to actual events.
Sorry, but actual slaves revolting and killing their masters? I got NO problem with that. Kill all slavers. Kill all slave owners. Period.
Same category as child rapists in my opinion. Killing is too good for 'em.
The people they killed weren't all masters lol. Most were just white civilians, women and children that were brutally tortured and murdered.
History is messy. All whites save for 2000 germans were massacred after the revolution. Was it bad? Yes. Was Haiti under French slavery bad? Yes.
So? Glorifying the mass-rape and murder or white people is just as shameless as glorifying brutal slavery.

That's too bad. But I can't feel too much sympathy. How many civilians and non-slave owners died to end slavery in our civil war?
REAL oppression will almost always result in indiscriminate retaliation. Blood begets blood, etc.
Pay up front, like we did... or pay full price later. Just my opinion.
