What effect does slavery have on future generations to come?

Ignorance, lack of initiative and accountability, poverty and low self-esteem. Generations which have a background of slavery cannot appreciate their success in life or even the success of their relatives or friends or same background and origin.

Creativity is limited and devlopment life skills is meagre because they are never connected to themselves, no vision of their own. the reason for living becomes food and money to buy food and clothing or beer if they ever get their hands on money.

There is no plan for life because they are owning nothing they are planning to own nothing except that which they are "allowed" [by the powers that be] to own.

Independent thinking it taken as a sign of insurbodination because that's what slavery teaches them.

"Your background determines what you will become" is the order of the day. They cannot see themselves prosper without being employed by someone else, or getting some form of support from the so called superior nation or race or family.

They become so limited within themselves.

They become education lunatics and not intelectually motivated.

Those who happen to be intelectually motivated lack the courage to apply themselves in life without some encouraging them to do so. Actually even when placed in a position of authority they tend to think that they are probably offending someone by being what they aught to be in their position of power. Apologetic.

The effect of slavery cannot be underestimated in its consequences, but it's never the sole excuse for ignorance in any nation or generation.

Some how the Creator always makes sure that a light shines through that darkness, but people choose to stay in the so called comfort zone of complete oblivion, drug from the years of no vision, no plan, do what I say do, eat what I say eat, whatever you can be or have or become depends on me "your boss".

That is A complete mental damage equivalent to the damage of the fall and depravity of man, but [NOTE] IT IS REDEEMABLE EVEN IF THE PRICE IS JUST TOO HIGH.

Contrary, I believe also that a life of slavery should teach one to teach his children that they can always do better than what one has achieved IN HIS LIFE TIME, THAT LIFE IS NOT LIMITED TO WHAT WE SEE NOW OR HAVE OR DO'NT HAVE NOW BUT ON EVERYTHING THAT WAS INVESTED IN EACH AND EVERYONE OF US ALIVE TODAY. AND SHOW THEM how do they go about FULFILLING THEIR DESTINEY WITH OR WITHOUT LIMITATIONS.

YOU ARE THE LIMIT: NO ONE IS MORE DANGEROUS TO YOU THAN YOU ARE TO YOURSELF.

BEAT IT.
