    “Over 1 Million White European Slaves” Britain’s Forgotten History

    Is Islam compatible with the West? Is less than 2 weeks away! Get your tickets now before they sell out: https://winstonmarshall.eventbrite.co.uk In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with historian and History Debunked creator Simon Webb to uncover the forgotten story of the Barbary Corsairs and the white European slave trade. We discuss how Muslim raiders from North Africa captured Europeans from England, Ireland and across the continent, attacked coastal towns, seized ships and even established a base on Lundy Island. We explore the Ottoman Empire’s role, Oliver Cromwell’s military response, Britain’s decision to pay tribute, America’s Barbary Wars, and the 1816 bombardment of Algiers that freed Christian slaves. Finally, we turn to the decline of Christendom, Britain’s changing relationship with its own history, the retreat of Christianity, the rise of Islam in Europe, and whether the West has forgotten the civilisation it inherited.Check out Simon’s Channel here: https://www.youtube.com/@HistoryDebunkedsimonwebbWATCH THE EXTENDED CONVERSATION HERE: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/Chapters00:00 Who Were the Barbary Corsairs?02:02 The Reconquista & the Ottoman Expansion04:37 Barbary Raids on Britain08:14 How the Corsairs Helped Trigger the English Civil War12:08 How Many Europeans Were Taken as Slaves?14:23 The Barbary Slavers’ Base on Lundy Island16:53 The European Who Became a Barbary Corsair22:42 Cromwell Takes the Fight to North Africa24:28 Why Britain Paid Tribute to the Barbary States28:33 Life as a European Slave in North Africa32:27 America & the Barbary Wars37:22 Britain’s “Last Crusade” Against Algiers40:05 What Happened to Christendom?43:14 Why Britain Forgot Its Christian History47:36 Christianity, Islam & Modern Britain51:40 Could Christianity Make a Comeback?
