SLAVERY BEFORE SLAVERY

By Chief Starr
Teacher of SELF Sovereignty · Guide of the HUE Tribe

Slavery did not begin in 1619.
Race did not come first.
The chains did not start in America.

Before ships crossed the Atlantic…
Before names were assigned…
Before skin became a sentence…

There were wars, tribes, capture, and disownment.

In SLAVERY BEFORE SLAVERY, Chief Starr dismantles the myth that slavery began with Europeans and exposes the deeper system that made global enslavement possible long before the first ship sailed.

This book reveals:

• Africa was never one people, one race, or one nation
• Tribes enslaved other tribes through war and conquest
• Captives were disowned, erased, and never accepted back
• Slavery existed before race
• Europeans did not invent slavery — they scaled it
• The name “Africa” came after the chains
• Hatred aimed at the wrong source becomes a new prison
• True freedom is inner sovereignty, not historical rage

This is not a book of blame.
This is a book of clarity.

Not written to comfort identity —
but to restore self-ownership.

If your understanding of history begins at 1619,
this book will unsettle you.

If your identity is rooted in inherited anger,
this book will challenge you.

If you are ready to separate truth from trauma
and reclaim authority over your mind —

This book is for you.
