I currently live in Qatar 🇶🇦, and I will say the world is bigger than the US. I encourage brothers and sisters to explore and go where you are treated best.
@@tomi2205 They are workers. No such thing as slavery anymore. It's illegal. I'm black and live in the UAE and the Asians here make 1000 aed a month as labourers which is more than they will make in India.

Hello. I have lived in Madrid, Spain for the past 18 years and have never had any problem with racism. I teach at a university in Madrid and have had no problems there either. However, we must remember that everyone has different experiences in life. There is no sense in arguing with anyone trying to prove someone wrong. To those who have bad experiences in Spain, move on and do not return. Ask yourself what have you learned from the experience. There are many other countries to visit. Find those that bring you joy and forget the ones that brought you grief and heartache. Life is too short to focus on the negative.
a few blacks have lived in America over 40 yrs, and said they have never faced racism, I tell them that most likely it was there and they were too stupid to recognize it
What African country are you from ?Do you think you will ever go back home to teach young people ln your country or maybe an on line course that is recognized by your home country. Please they need you .
Belize, stood out for me. So glad I found this video, I’ve been thinking about moving for years. My daughter graduates from high school this year and I want out of the USA
Portugal threw me off. I lived there years ago and experienced some of the worst racism of my life. I wonder if these African Americans who live there speak the language or if they live in a bubble. Many Black Portuguese and Brazilians of all races have complained about their treatment. Spain honestly wasn't much better. I don't hate the US enough to go somewhere, where I'm not going to be treated with respect. Good luck!
I loved Portugal as an African American, and found the people genuine. Any hostility I experience, unfortunately, was among some of the black immigrants there, but some others were very nice.
They don't like black people. A family friend went there on vacation said while in restaurants the white waiters and waitresses acted as if they should not be serving black people.
This isn’t the same experience for everyone. Some have had great success there and tragic ones in the US. Hopefully fear doesn’t hold anyone hostage in the US
@@xfactor2572 You're right, but I've yet to see real examples of great success- Portuguese jobs, that pay well, Portuguese friends, fluency in the language. If you don't speak the language, you're missing out on the real culture. I lived there some years back, but I didn't see any black people in good positions or "thriving " as African Americans put it. I think it's part illusional. Just because there are lots of black people there, doesn't mean that they are thriving. It might take a while for them to realize it. Yes, it beautiful its a beautiful country, but also has racial issues. Just talk to the black Portuguese, they 'll tell you the truth.
I agree whit you. I have lived in Portugal for 5 years. I feel tired and frustrated and intend to live in the United States, as i believe i will see more representative representation and community spirit, even if i am not inclued because i am Afro Brazilian, but i belive it will be more welcoming than Portugal.
As I get older and my children go off to college, I'm just so so ready to finally go. I MUST experience something so new before I leave here. I must know how it feels to be released of American culture. This video has inspired me greatly.
Me too, I joined a travel club with international members and travel. Sometimes I go alone because when you arrive you meet other members before you go on at least two excursions. I hope that you get a "running buddy" or two to go and enjoy and see other cultures.
If it wasn’t for economic instability and the corrupt government causing other issues ,Haiti would’ve been on that list (I hope it is one day) ,It was the first Black Country to pass a law that automatically granted any black person that reaches the island freedom and refuge during slavery .A few AAs that were able to reach us were automatically free .I know random lol
Knowing all that you guys have been through, I believe Haitians have an extraordinary ability to overcome and excel amidst adversity. Despite all the bullshit that's going on now something big is definitely on the horizon for Haiti, I wish you all the best nonetheless! 👍🏽🥰
You just named off almost all Afrifan countries... it makes youbwodner ifnits genetic because African countries are the worst next to places like Mexico
I have two Haitian brothers as one of my best of Friends. Even though theyre now living in Finland, i can feel the richness of their culture by just stepping into their home and seein the family be together. Their mom is always ready to embrace me and feed me 🤭 i truly consider myself as the Lucky one to have been able to see at least that portion of their culture and mindset they carried with them when moving here. I definetly want to visit Haiti at some point when im financially more stable. There are a lot of great places in this world.🙏
If you are moving some where only share that information with those you trust. Do not share your moving decisions online or social media. Last but not least please visit the city, state or country your moving to first than make the decision to move there.
Many people are leaving the USA in droves. I am glad you did this review, giving people a choice. Blacks and whites have been moving out of the USA, because of cost of living and the health care benefits are better in other countries.
Yeah, they're leaving for so many reasons. The rich are leaving for tax and corporate tax purposes. The rest of the Americans are leaving because there's no middle-class, inflation, no work-life balance, the cost of living is too high, the job environment is poor, no good quality of education, no universal health care, housing is expensive, etc. And the list goes on, too many to mention.
@@WHYOSHO Latino never existed until the Spanish took Amerindian wives and created a new Race your nothing but a product of colonialism my friend. your fathers blood is Spanish pure and simple and you will never get rid of it ever. you are 50% European.
@@WHYOSHO Huh? Mexico SOLD California for $15,000,000 & Latinos dont own it the Democrat machine does 😂 only real natives in America are Native American Indians- warped history much? Oh and we bought Louisiana from France- “The Louisiana Purchase” don’t know what that is? 🇺🇸
I'm also surprised that Spain was on this list. They are extremely hostile towards Africans/people of African decent. Afro Latino friends of mine had horrible experiences while there. Just look at all of the racist incidents connected with their soccer teams over the years!!!
I thought a lot of countries treated us the same. Good to know there’s options. At this point I feel like if in us to run. I’m not sure why people keep trying to come here. It’s not the land of opportunity for all.
Then you should remain in your oh-so friendly and fair America. I get in and out of Spain from our base in Morocco often. Don't see what your "friends" see. If you decide to ever LIVE someplace else, please hang-up your American culture at the door before you go.
I've never been to Spain, but I've heard the same. My daughter's afro Latina teacher went there on vacation & she told her students that she had horrible racist treatment & experience . On the other hand my Black nephew who's from Britain loves Spain & he visits often & has lots of friends there. IMy african American niece spent a semester there studying Spanish & she had a good experience. I''m wondering WHY some black ppl have bad experiences in Spain & some don't? I was afraid to visit bc of what I heard, but NOW I want to visit. I'm curious to see how I'd be treated there. I'm a naturalized US citizen, originally from Jamaica. MANY foreign ppl here in US mistake me for an African American 😊 the ppl in Spain wil think I'm African American tool😊
I go to Spain (Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, Seville, Majorca de Palma) quite often and have never had any issues there. I've met other black Americans there who also had no issues. However, some seem to be colorists. Apparently darker skinned black people may be treated poorly. I'm also fluent in castellano so that may have something to do with the way I am received. I would move there or to Switzerland in a heartbeat if my husband would agree.
@@shotelco America has a richer relationship with racism so they tend to be very offended by things that are unintentionally racist. Sometimes ppl are genuinely ignorant about African people and ask or say things that may offend.
I'm a digital nomad and focus more on living in African countries. Ghana was definitely one of my favorites. I didn't get to make it to Senegal but it's on my list!
@@SongofaBeach2012 that's cool. My mother's ancestry is Sierra Leone. I lived there for 3 months before I got the results and felt most at home. I live in Nigeria now with my husband
Let me add this. If you are going to live in another country, make sure you learn the language of that country. Why? You are respected even more. And it increases you everyday living options. Whether that be shopping or touring. As an African American, I speak fluent Spanish. So when I travel, I am able to tour and shop with confidence in Spanish speaking countries. Also study and learn the countries monetary currency. And lastly, learn the ins and outs, do's and don't and the ropes to jump and those to skip. Living abroad is not the panacea its made out to be unless YOU are ready and have done extensive research. I say this as a military veteran who has traveled extensively and a person who has lived in over 12 foreign countries. I now live in the USA.
That’s a very good point: if one relocates from the US to a foreign country, one should learn and speak that nation’s language, laws and customs, economic development, and the citisens that currently reside in that nation. Do your homework before you relocate.
A growing amount of people, of all races, are moving out of the US for a better life. Especially in recent years due healthcare, cost of living, violence, racism and the government just not giving a care in general about anyone other than the 1%. I truly believe America is in rapid decline at this point and it's better to get out now rather than later if possible.
I wanna leave this place so badly and my mom agrees, the only thing slowing the process is money sadly. We're black so I'm doing a lot of research on places where we are the most accepted, obviously there's racism pretty much every where but I'd rather deal with weird stares than constant anxiety about getting hate crimed or killed🚶🏾♀️
@Nemusis 999 Yes please stay, why fight against the mark?...I mean jab I hope you got yours. Why troll blacks, just sit back nukes are coming to a neighborhood near you....as soon as we leave in mass.
I've heard many good things about Costa Rico and I've met really wonderful, friendly ppl from Costa Rico here in America. It makes me want to visit. The only negative thing I heard Abt CR is a bit of a crime problem. Not sure if that's true.
My choice is to go to Africa i have narrowed the list to three Rwanda, Tanzania and Ethiopia. I am building relationships in those countries in advance so I can hit the ground running and lot of business opportunities its amazing.
I have lived in three countries outside the US and traveled to 30 others. Currently, I have lived in Costa Rica for 2 years and it is the most expensive country in Central America and more the Mexico and almost all of Latin America. Costs for housing, cars, electronics, good wine and beef is high. Remember, Don’t move to any country without living in that country for at least 12 months. Visiting and living there is very different. Check out the country before deciding to move there.
It would be great if the was a video on this channel explaining where to get information on the visa process and other steps to take to prepare to live in these countries. This would be so helpful. Thank you for posting this video.
For some reason I have found most of these type of videos ommit that, I am wondering why. It is of paramount importance if you plan to say anyplace long term.
Loving this list, thank you for this. Currently an expat in Milan, I will definitely have to visit some of the places on this list to get a better feel for the country. Thanks again!
What makes you think that he's living in the U.S. or another Western nation other than Ghana? Look, not everyone thinks the U.S. is the greatest country in the world, and I can show you many documents that the U.S. has a lot of problems.
Black Excellist is the best source for all of my travel information. However, Spain was not a serene city for African Americans. As MrPman474 said, the people treated my friends and I like we were a threat to them. Evil looks, Curse words, we cut our trip short and flew back home. The next year, we went to Ghana. Thank Black Excellist for the information on Ghana. Remove Spain from this list. They are awful people toward blacks. Later.
Ive Been going to spain since 2014 and one of the places I am planning on relocating to. I already have a coalition of friends there and everytime I go the experience gets better and better. Ive never as a black man receive any racism in the 20 times I’ve been there. Sorry that was your experience. There are black Americans living there that are doing just fine and are thriving
I totally agree ...... Belize is the 1! along with the other 2 but Im definitely getting a place in Caye Caulker Island off the coast of Bz....No cars all sand just golf carts allowed cheaper places and businesses to invest in... Im soo done with this country.
America has the best medical centers…… if you can’t afford a few dollars per month for health insurance than go live in Europe will you get “free healthcare” and only have to pay 60% taxes to afford that free healthcare 🤡 1
@@bradIeyyy "America has the best Medical Centers?!" Haha! Is that why the middle-class to upper-class whites are going to South Asia and other countries for their quality of health care and medical facilities?
I am very surprised that Mexico, Canada, and Spain made this list. Canada has police as racist as in America, and also very expensive. Spain - no way. The Spanish started the Atlantic slave trade and have never liked Blacks. Mexico - the crime. I live in Canada but I plan to move to Panama. I know that as Blacks we can never be 100% comfortable anywhere. But some places may be a little more tolerant toward us than others.
Canadian police may be racist but I don't see them killing the citizens like the US police force. People of color know racism is a fact but killing them and getting away with it on an almost daily basis is far worse.
I guess u gota stratch DR off some of y'all lists', becuz we have a reputation of being racist towards Haitians and other black foreigners (especially darkskin), partly true for majority of Dominican society
Colombia should be on the list. I know from personally visiting there twice. And Canada is cold, expensive and wack. I got searched everytime I went there.
Yeah, I would never ever consider Canada especially being from a US/Canada border state. It's cold as hell. Many of them leave during winter or move outright to the Caribbean. Colombia is on my short list, Santa Marta.
@@travelingjohn69 What makes Santa Marta better than Cartagena? I may have to pay a visit. I have been to Medellin, Bogota, and Cartagena so far and Cartagena has been my favorite.
@@traveladdict196 Santa Marta is cheaper and has a better nightlife. Even though it's smaller. Plus the beach is better. It's a bus ride over the hill. But you can hike it if you wanna be in shape.
African Americans dont realize the privilege we have as Americans most of these countries especially the Latin ones are hostile to their native black people and foreign blacks will be treated with more respect. Ie think of how some white Americans prefer continental africans over black Americans it's the same thing. Also our American dollars also helps. Their not nice because they actually like you but nice because they see dollars signs.
You live in a Racist world to be honest. Ever wondered why Africans go there & always move back after getting established? Because they know they aren't second class citizens where they come from. The racism in the west is mind numbing. Live in a Society where you have a Say & social command. Any Smart black individual with enough money should invest in Africa. There are very nice Cities you could invest in and secure a future for your generations before its too late.
@@jqight740 what fight? And please dont say racism lol I’m not a soft snowflake I love being black and my life is good in America because I take advantage of the opportunity this country offers. Which is why immigrants are still trying to come here. And please don’t say police brutality because the entire system in America needs to be reworked and black aren’t the only ones killed by the police. So im not understanding what fight you’re actually talking about..
Okay, interesting. But the list has no ranking and it would be great to understand how many African Americans have moved, are living and have purchased homes/business there.
I moved to Santa Marta, Colombia in 2018 and got a retirement Visa. When COVID 19 hit in 2020 they closed the beaches..... and stopped all air travel I had to leave. So when they finally lifted the travel ban I went to Tanzania where there weren't any COVID restrictions. After being in Dar es Salaam for 6 months I realized I didn't like it so I got on a bus and went to Mombasa Kenya where I continue to live. My monthly budget is $650.00 including rent for a 2 bedroom 2 bath apartment, electricity, WiFi, food and entertainment. I'm typically at the beach most days.😊😊😊 Most people speak some English.
I have been living abroad with my 2 kids most of the last 15 years. We can do it. We get a much better life abroad for a lot less money and strife..From Bahia Brazil
As a black person living in Canada Toronto and Montreal (if you speak fluent French) are the only places worth living. It’s still very very structurally racist so you will face challenges with finding a job (even with experience and credentials) , housing and getting loans for anything (even with good/ excellent credit).
@@karlosthejackel69 she said structurally racist. She also didn't state she wanted to leave Canada. She was just giving info for people who think Canada is a bed of Roses
I definitely recommend Brazil. Although there is the same history of Slavery and racism, there are more of "us" there. It is the 2nd most populated Black country in the world behind Nigeria. I just bought an apartment last year pre construction in Vitoria - the capital of the state of Espirito Santo - the next state north of Rio de Janeiro. Vitoria & it's sister city Vila Velha across the bay has a higher standard of living and lower crime rate than Rio. Blessed with beautiful beaches and mountains, this area is DEFINITELY worth looking into!
Brazil is not the second country with the most black people, this is a fallacy, 42% are white, 46% are Pardo = Mixed, and 9% are Black, in the united states you say that the child of a white person with a black person is black person, here it doesn't work that way, if a black person has a child with a white person, we call it pardo (mixed), I'm Pardo, I'm neither white nor black, and I accept myself very well that way, we have to respect the differences between countries and stop trying to impose your way of thinking on others' countries.
The buildings that you showed when Ghana was being featured are not in Ghana!!!! I know because I've been there there is no tall buildings along the coast
I was shocked when you mentioned Portugal 🇵🇹 I was about to put comment and you nailed it Portugal. Yes I just got back 2 weeks vacation amd wow amazing country and cheap food, nice people but not friendly. I missed it. You will find plenty beautiful people at the beach all week
Good info. Black America is not a monolith. We are hugely diverse in economic and social status, aspirations , capabilities , etc., etc. Leaving this country for greener pastures is the perfect decision for some . For countless others , we have paid the price of overcoming every obstacle set before us. This country, America, is ours more than any other ethnic group, except for native Amaricans !
The sadi part however, is that we not have any power to make decision that benefit us politically. So we are costantly at the mercy of someone else time table and on their terms period!!
You missed South Africa, there’s a growing interest and influx of African American expats moving to South Africa, it undoubtedly has the best infrastructure, economy, education and services on the continent.
Why would any Black American want move to south Africa? infrastructure in South Africa wasn't even built for the black people to begin with. The minority controls all the wealth in South Africa plus crime there is high as hell. I would much rather spend my money in an African country like Ghana or Rwanda, although they have less infrastructure, they win because the crime is low, and they ain't second class citizens in their own country.
Portugal is extremely ideal, for some Americans. I believe that if (a large number of) the natives there were not so inherently xenophobic/racist, this nation would be the better option. Blacks from 🇺🇸 could relocate to Portugal and potentially find a nearly perfect home away from home.
*sigh* I'm ready to goooo! This place is weighing so heavily on my soul. 😔 I know that no place is perfect & I have no expectation of that, but MY GAWD! Ancestors, give me wings! I've lost myself in the US & that's no one's fault... I feel as though I was BORN lost. Such a strange feeling. I'm just...Ugh!... Idk, WEARY??? Is that the word? This, for me, isn't about running AWAY from life, but running TOWARDS it. Somewhere where the weather's moderate, the food's great, ppl and nature are in harmony with each other & my introversion is respected. 😌
Thanks so much 4 this video! It is extremely informative especially, 4 Black Americans like me, who want a better ways 2 live our best & prosperous life. I also enjoyed this video because, I'll be traveling in search of the woman of my prayers and, wife her up! 👍
Watch the The Real South Africa channel it's African American couple that moved to South Africa and another couple Dr Alsad and Adrian also American couple that are moving to South Africa by June they left tonight Back to America they will give you the full information about South Africa
There's nothing to be concerned about. The content creator is giving his opinion, everybody doesn't want to move or travel to Africa and that's ok,everybody's gotta do what works for them.
You guys have to remember Black Americans have just started to travel to the African continent in larger numbers in the last couple of years so more African countries should be added to the list in the next 5 to 10 years.
Brasil and Colombia should be considered also as they have large black populations. Cartagena is perfect for those who like the beach and year-round humidity.
There is so much in this video that the author got WRONG I don't know where to begin. Seems to have been put together based on hearsay rather than international experience. Sorry but this video should be redone with better data!
I too am just ready to go. I am so happy to hear from the people who decided to go and have gone that shared it. I've been planning my move and jokingly called my sister and she I'm leaving the US and my family is coming with me and to my surprise she said I'm on board mind you my sister is die hard Watts/Los Angeles CA and she does not like to fly but when she said she's on board I started to cry because I know it's time to go if she's saying it.
This was an outstanding video and info on other places outside the USA 🇺🇸 Thanks for sharing this type of info, also became a subscriber as well.. 👏🏽🙌🏼👍👊😀😀😀
I moved to Canada and it is definitely up there in liveability. Just need to be prepared for the winter seasons. And due to the slower pace in the country, one might get bored. Otherwise quality of life increases due to similar economy with the US and power of the dollar
I was invited several times to move to Dubai, UAE, Dhaka Bangladesh and Doha Qatar because of my business. I visited those places. I Am building something in the Dominican Republic also. You guys left out Brazil, and Colombia.
@Oladimeji Daodu Someone sounds triggered. I'm sure you saw people promoting Japan and Vietnam in the comment section but you chose to hate on the one that promoted an African country.
I never imagined living in Portugal but it something to consider☺️! Canada is so cold other than that I haven’t heard anything bad about it. I may have to consider this country too🤔
Number 10 is really number 1!! Especially Montréal Québec great people, great health care, good school and so much more!! Your channel should have more shows about Montréal
It take courage to just up and move.cause we been in these states all our lives that all we know easier said than done, homesick will kick your ass if your mind ain right
You are so true. I for one never felt homesick when in other countries. I find U.S the worst in almost all respects, but there are still good people in the U.S. I hope they finally prevail.
My only advice for brothers and sisters leaving America for foreign lands is this. Leave your biases, assumptions, and preconceived notions about other cultures behind. If you want a better experience while living in foreign lands, you must do these things.
Move to another country, don't think about it, don't talk about it, just do it. You only have one life to live and if you stay in the USA you will always be looked at as a second class person and that will never change in your life time but you can change it by moving.
I am not Black but found it interesting that many of the countries shown as "best" on this channel are the same ones that pop up for all ex-pats regardless of race, other than the two African countries. One point about Belize (and possibly the two African countries) is that the pace of life is very laid back. If you need a plumbing repair, something built, etc., don't expect the same prompt service you would find in the US - they will eventually come, but it will be when they are ready to do the work, not necessarily when you want it, but that is part of the charm of Belize.
A lot of countries have closed their doors to people who have not taken the vaccine. This list would look a lot different if that important fact was considered.
I've been watching a lot of videos about moving abroad, and my biracial (black and white) partner told me that since I'm white, I didn't understand the fear of moving to a new country like he did. I'm trans. I'm not even allowed into some countries, and if lived in those places or some others, I would probably be dead or in prison just for existing. I feel that because he's brown in the US, he could be dead or in prison just for existing, and that scares me more than anything else. Seeing videos like this might help him come around, eventually

Your ancestors have given their blood, sweat and tears to build this nation. This is where you belong. Don’t let any circumstance or any one discourage you. Keep the hope alive. Stay and make it better for the next generation, a change will come.
while any change that has come, they have either reversed it or in the process of reversing. Now they don't want to teach American about race. America has not shown any determination to face its race problem and we are constantly at the mercy of how, when and how much freedom they are willing to give us at any given time. When do you say Enough is Enough and stop deluding yourself that thing will get better. That is if you really believe you deserve complete equality and have some conception of how that looks and feels. Otherwise you just continue to be a slave hoping that one day, the dominant culture will decide to recognize you humanity
As a dark-skinned black American, I'd say that the treatment one receives in foreign countries is going to be "all over the place," so to speak. It's a very subjective thing. I've been to France and Spain. I really liked most of the folks I met in both countries. I'd return to either county in a heartbeat if I could. It's safe to say that we (all) are hoping we can put this pandemic behind us A.S.A.P. ! 🌍😎
The blood of your ancestors carry more things in common then any invention of culture. The more you're like the people you live around, the less conflict, because everything is the same! There is also great pride in being with one's 'people,' strong, unique and proud.
Everyone wants to live where they are comfortable. Just remember to be a good citizen and don’t feel entitled wherever you go. Most of the world feel that Americans are rude and pushy. Be nice.
Canada for me would be the place as I live 10 minutes from the Canadian border and I dont mean 10 minutes away from Windsor. Toronto is a very large city where I actually feel accepted. Granted! You can't run Away from Racism (even the countries you picked, you'll find Racism) but I do feel more relaxed in Canada, then here in the United States. This country has officially become a shit hole country
You need to revisit Thailand and Costa Rica and update your video. Thailand does not have a strong infrastructure. The most annoying aspect of Thailand infrastructure is the old waste and water system. You are not allowed to flush toilet paper because of the issues with the waste system pipes. The water has been deemed non-consumable and people are warned NOT to wash edibles such as vegetable in tap water. Thailand’s waste and water pipe issue has been a decade’s long issue. This very troubling aspect of Thailand’s infrastructure should not go unmentioned. Throwing used toilet paper in the trash ; if you don't have a "BUM GUN" is something quite challenging and extraordinary if you are from the US. Costa Rica Does Not have a low cost of living 60% cheaper than the US. In fact Costa Rica cost of living is comparable to NY and that did not happen in the last year or so since this video was posted. There was in some cases a higher cost of living just at the grocery store. It is videos like these that actually become a part of peoples research to make a big move out of the US but for those who do not do their due diligence and just go on what some of these videos purport, it can be very mildly to very highly disappointing. Be mindful.
I would never leave the country because of racism. It is everywhere I would leave for a better living experience such as Healthcare,friendlier people,culture, crime,etc. Blacks are very mean here towards each other..thats enough alone. Now I expect a pig to be a pig in some cases. I show kindness because we are human beings❤
I just recently moved to nyc and ppl here always think I’m a Dominican or something like that. I’m born n raised in the south don’t know nothing about my real culture or heritage 😅 but I’ve always been drawn to any and all indigenous cultures. I even lived on a reservation for a while. So I bet I could survive pretty well on one of them central/South American countries or islands. I’m going to make it a goal.
I think it’s wrong af to just label us all as “Black” bc of darker skin. Who knows what all cultures each of us really are. I look forward to international travel so I can have some real enriching life experience! Go glad I found this #blaxit on TikTok! 😍
It's becuz u are lightskin and mixedlooking like majority of Latinos from the Caribbean... Real blacks who are darkskin or even brownskin don't look like us and have different experiences

Hello. I have lived in Madrid, Spain for the past 18 years and have never had any problem with racism. I teach at a university in Madrid and have had no problems there either. However, we must remember that everyone has different experiences in life. There is no sense in arguing with anyone trying to prove someone wrong. To those who have bad experiences in Spain, move on and do not return. Ask yourself what have you learned from the experience. There are many other countries to visit. Find those that bring you joy and forget the ones that brought you grief and heartache. Life is too short to focus on the negative.
a few blacks have lived in America over 40 yrs, and said they have never faced racism, I tell them that most likely it was there and they were too stupid to recognize it
I plan on going to Spain myself

@@TeacherTrainerMadrid indeed. Thanks man
What African country are you from ?Do you think you will ever go back home to teach young people ln your country or maybe an on line course that is recognized by your home country. Please they need you .
Belize, stood out for me. So glad I found this video, I’ve been thinking about moving for years. My daughter graduates from high school this year and I want out of the USA
Go for it, inflation will increase again and again. I'm saving up and moving to Brazil 🇧🇷 because of afro culture there.
@Nemusis 999 whats your problem?
Beware of the crime in Belize
You forgot to mention that Belize is an English-speaking country, so there's no language barrier.
Under the heading it stated that the primary language is English.
What about the education, I.T tech careers and christian communities there?
@@SweetBrownGirl the less Christian communities the better
Portugal threw me off. I lived there years ago and experienced some of the worst racism of my life. I wonder if these African Americans who live there speak the language or if they live in a bubble. Many Black Portuguese and Brazilians of all races have complained about their treatment.
Spain honestly wasn't much better.
I don't hate the US enough to go somewhere, where I'm not going to be treated with respect. Good luck!
I loved Portugal as an African American, and found the people genuine. Any hostility I experience, unfortunately, was among some of the black immigrants there, but some others were very nice.
They don't like black people. A family friend went there on vacation said while in restaurants the white waiters and waitresses acted as if they should not be serving black people.
This isn’t the same experience for everyone. Some have had great success there and tragic ones in the US. Hopefully fear doesn’t hold anyone hostage in the US
@@xfactor2572 You're right, but I've yet to see real examples of great success- Portuguese jobs, that pay well, Portuguese friends, fluency in the language. If you don't speak the language, you're missing out on the real culture. I lived there some years back, but I didn't see any black people in good positions or "thriving " as African Americans put it. I think it's part illusional. Just because there are lots of black people there, doesn't mean that they are thriving. It might take a while for them to realize it. Yes, it beautiful its a beautiful country, but also has racial issues. Just talk to the black Portuguese, they 'll tell you the truth.
I agree whit you. I have lived in Portugal for 5 years. I feel tired and frustrated and intend to live in the United States, as i believe i will see more representative representation and community spirit, even if i am not inclued because i am Afro Brazilian, but i belive it will be more welcoming than Portugal.
As I get older and my children go off to college, I'm just so so ready to finally go. I MUST experience something so new before I leave here. I must know how it feels to be released of American culture. This video has inspired me greatly.
Go for it!
Same!!
Try get da kids to come to....nothing left for us here
Tell ya kids to go with you…they don’t like us in the US..
Me too, I joined a travel club with international members and travel. Sometimes I go alone because when you arrive you meet other members before you go on at least two excursions. I hope that you get a "running buddy" or two to go and enjoy and see other cultures.
If it wasn’t for economic instability and the corrupt government causing other issues ,Haiti would’ve been on that list (I hope it is one day) ,It was the first Black Country to pass a law that automatically granted any black person that reaches the island freedom and refuge during slavery .A few AAs that were able to reach us were automatically free .I know random lol
My goal is to get very rich soon and build a lot of real estate there 🥰💪🏾
Knowing all that you guys have been through, I believe Haitians have an extraordinary ability to overcome and excel amidst adversity. Despite all the bullshit that's going on now something big is definitely on the horizon for Haiti, I wish you all the best nonetheless! 👍🏽🥰
You just named off almost all Afrifan countries... it makes youbwodner ifnits genetic because African countries are the worst next to places like Mexico
Definitely not random. ✊🏽🇭🇹
I have two Haitian brothers as one of my best of Friends. Even though theyre now living in Finland, i can feel the richness of their culture by just stepping into their home and seein the family be together. Their mom is always ready to embrace me and feed me 🤭 i truly consider myself as the Lucky one to have been able to see at least that portion of their culture and mindset they carried with them when moving here. I definetly want to visit Haiti at some point when im financially more stable. There are a lot of great places in this world.🙏
If you are moving some where only share that information with those you trust. Do not share your moving decisions online or social media. Last but not least please visit the city, state or country your moving to first than make the decision to move there.
Can you explain more why it's best to leave where you are moving to, offline? *serious question
Safety first, identity theft, government...no, just makes sense.

Many people are leaving the USA in droves. I am glad you did this review, giving people a choice. Blacks and whites have been moving out of the USA, because of cost of living and the health care benefits are better in other countries.
Yeah, they're leaving for so many reasons. The rich are leaving for tax and corporate tax purposes. The rest of the Americans are leaving because there's no middle-class, inflation, no work-life balance, the cost of living is too high, the job environment is poor, no good quality of education, no universal health care, housing is expensive, etc. And the list goes on, too many to mention.
Love it. This was a Native/Mexican/Latino country/land to begin with, and I love how White People are leaving and the Latinos continue to grow?
@@WHYOSHO Latino never existed until the Spanish took Amerindian wives and created a new Race your nothing but a product of colonialism my friend. your fathers blood is Spanish pure and simple and you will never get rid of it ever. you are 50% European.
@@WHYOSHO Huh? Mexico SOLD California for $15,000,000 & Latinos dont own it the Democrat machine does 😂 only real natives in America are Native American Indians- warped history much? Oh and we bought Louisiana from France- “The Louisiana Purchase” don’t know what that is? 🇺🇸
And they will be right back lol 😆😆
I'm also surprised that Spain was on this list. They are extremely hostile towards Africans/people of African decent. Afro Latino friends of mine had horrible experiences while there. Just look at all of the racist incidents connected with their soccer teams over the years!!!
I thought a lot of countries treated us the same. Good to know there’s options. At this point I feel like if in us to run. I’m not sure why people keep trying to come here. It’s not the land of opportunity for all.
Then you should remain in your oh-so friendly and fair America. I get in and out of Spain from our base in Morocco often. Don't see what your "friends" see. If you decide to ever LIVE someplace else, please hang-up your American culture at the door before you go.
I've never been to Spain, but I've heard the same. My daughter's afro Latina teacher went there on vacation & she told her students that she had horrible racist treatment & experience . On the other hand my Black nephew who's from Britain loves Spain & he visits often & has lots of friends there. IMy african American niece spent a semester there studying Spanish & she had a good experience. I''m wondering WHY some black ppl have bad experiences in Spain & some don't? I was afraid to visit bc of what I heard, but NOW I want to visit. I'm curious to see how I'd be treated there. I'm a naturalized US citizen, originally from Jamaica. MANY foreign ppl here in US mistake me for an African American 😊 the ppl in Spain wil think I'm African American tool😊
I go to Spain (Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, Seville, Majorca de Palma) quite often and have never had any issues there. I've met other black Americans there who also had no issues. However, some seem to be colorists. Apparently darker skinned black people may be treated poorly. I'm also fluent in castellano so that may have something to do with the way I am received. I would move there or to Switzerland in a heartbeat if my husband would agree.
@@shotelco America has a richer relationship with racism so they tend to be very offended by things that are unintentionally racist. Sometimes ppl are genuinely ignorant about African people and ask or say things that may offend.
I'm a digital nomad and focus more on living in African countries. Ghana was definitely one of my favorites. I didn't get to make it to Senegal but it's on my list!
I want to at least visit Senegal in my lifetime. I did an ancestry test and my ancestors on my fathers side are from Nigeria, Ghana and Senegal!
@@SongofaBeach2012 that's cool. My mother's ancestry is Sierra Leone. I lived there for 3 months before I got the results and felt most at home.
I live in Nigeria now with my husband

@@afrikanheritage99 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Let me add this. If you are going to live in another country, make sure you learn the language of that country. Why? You are respected even more. And it increases you everyday living options. Whether that be shopping or touring. As an African American, I speak fluent Spanish. So when I travel, I am able to tour and shop with confidence in Spanish speaking countries. Also study and learn the countries monetary currency. And lastly, learn the ins and outs, do's and don't and the ropes to jump and those to skip. Living abroad is not the panacea its made out to be unless YOU are ready and have done extensive research. I say this as a military veteran who has traveled extensively and a person who has lived in over 12 foreign countries. I now live in the USA.
That’s a very good point: if one relocates from the US to a foreign country, one should learn and speak that nation’s language, laws and customs, economic development, and the citisens that currently reside in that nation. Do your homework before you relocate.
A growing amount of people, of all races, are moving out of the US for a better life. Especially in recent years due healthcare, cost of living, violence, racism and the government just not giving a care in general about anyone other than the 1%. I truly believe America is in rapid decline at this point and it's better to get out now rather than later if possible.
Yup im fed up with this place
I wanna leave this place so badly and my mom agrees, the only thing slowing the process is money sadly. We're black so I'm doing a lot of research on places where we are the most accepted, obviously there's racism pretty much every where but I'd rather deal with weird stares than constant anxiety about getting hate crimed or killed🚶🏾♀️
@Nemusis 999 Yes please stay, why fight against the mark?...I mean jab I hope you got yours. Why troll blacks, just sit back nukes are coming to a neighborhood near you....as soon as we leave in mass.
I got out specifically of its Racially Motivated Murder of Black People using White Police Officers
@Nemusis 999 does that apply to you too when your candidate does win? Maybe you could leave and go to Europe rather than destroy government?

@@Novbaby You can definitely do an animal/insect planet show there, but that shouldn't stop you.
I've heard many good things about Costa Rico and I've met really wonderful, friendly ppl from Costa Rico here in America. It makes me want to visit. The only negative thing I heard Abt CR is a bit of a crime problem. Not sure if that's true.
My choice is to go to Africa i have narrowed the list to three Rwanda, Tanzania and Ethiopia. I am building relationships in those countries in advance so I can hit the ground running and lot of business opportunities its amazing.
True. We need to bring our skills and help Africa be a super power
Great decision.
Why Africa?
@@youngsavagefury7138 what do you mean by super power?
@@youngsavagefury7138 now you are speaking
I have lived in three countries outside the US and traveled to 30 others. Currently, I have lived in Costa Rica for 2 years and it is the most expensive country in Central America and more the Mexico and almost all of Latin America. Costs for housing, cars, electronics, good wine and beef is high.
Remember, Don’t move to any country without living in that country for at least 12 months. Visiting and living there is very different. Check out the country before deciding to move there.
This list is everything. Very informational and immensely inspiring.
Glad it was helpful!
It would be great if the was a video on this channel explaining where to get information on the visa process and other steps to take to prepare to live in these countries. This would be so helpful. Thank you for posting this video.
Noted!
Check out the embassies of ANY country you are comsidering.
You can Google all this information!
For some reason I have found most of these type of videos ommit that, I am wondering why. It is of paramount importance if you plan to say anyplace long term.
I'm a Ghanaian, and I should be glad to assist anyone willing to come over with information on immigration.
Loving this list, thank you for this. Currently an expat in Milan, I will definitely have to visit some of the places on this list to get a better feel for the country. Thanks again!

Black Excellist is the best source for all of my travel information. However, Spain was not a serene city for African Americans. As MrPman474 said, the people treated my friends and I like we were a threat to them. Evil looks, Curse words, we cut our trip short and flew back home. The next year, we went to Ghana. Thank Black Excellist for the information on Ghana. Remove Spain from this list. They are awful people toward blacks. Later.
How was your stay in Ghana feels like?

I am very surprised that Mexico, Canada, and Spain made this list. Canada has police as racist as in America, and also very expensive. Spain - no way. The Spanish started the Atlantic slave trade and have never liked Blacks. Mexico - the crime. I live in Canada but I plan to move to Panama. I know that as Blacks we can never be 100% comfortable anywhere. But some places may be a little more tolerant toward us than others.
Canadian police may be racist but I don't see them killing the citizens like the US police force. People of color know racism is a fact but killing them and getting away with it on an almost daily basis is far worse.
i was saying
I guess u gota stratch DR off some of y'all lists', becuz we have a reputation of being racist towards Haitians and other black foreigners (especially darkskin), partly true for majority of Dominican society
If you think canada is racist then everywhere is going to seem racist to you
Panama is also tax heaven for rich criminals and overall has a corrupt government
Colombia should be on the list. I know from personally visiting there twice. And Canada is cold, expensive and wack. I got searched everytime I went there.
Yeah, I would never ever consider Canada especially being from a US/Canada border state. It's cold as hell. Many of them leave during winter or move outright to the Caribbean. Colombia is on my short list, Santa Marta.
@@chillycharles910 Funny you said Santa Marta. I was there back in February and it was better and cheaper than Cartagena.
@@travelingjohn69 What makes Santa Marta better than Cartagena? I may have to pay a visit. I have been to Medellin, Bogota, and Cartagena so far and Cartagena has been my favorite.
@@traveladdict196 Santa Marta is cheaper and has a better nightlife. Even though it's smaller. Plus the beach is better. It's a bus ride over the hill. But you can hike it if you wanna be in shape.
African Americans dont realize the privilege we have as Americans most of these countries especially the Latin ones are hostile to their native black people and foreign blacks will be treated with more respect. Ie think of how some white Americans prefer continental africans over black Americans it's the same thing. Also our American dollars also helps. Their not nice because they actually like you but nice because they see dollars signs.
You live in a Racist world to be honest. Ever wondered why Africans go there & always move back after getting established? Because they know they aren't second class citizens where they come from. The racism in the west is mind numbing. Live in a Society where you have a Say & social command. Any Smart black individual with enough money should invest in Africa. There are very nice Cities you could invest in and secure a future for your generations before its too late.
So your solution is to continue to fight the good fight?
@@jqight740 what fight? And please dont say racism lol I’m not a soft snowflake I love being black and my life is good in America because I take advantage of the opportunity this country offers. Which is why immigrants are still trying to come here. And please don’t say police brutality because the entire system in America needs to be reworked and black aren’t the only ones killed by the police. So im not understanding what fight you’re actually talking about..
the fight to live without taking advantage of what the country offers - opportunism.
@@KjiehTV Your a boot lick by your response. Nuff said
Okay, interesting. But the list has no ranking and it would be great to understand how many African Americans have moved, are living and have purchased homes/business there.
I agree. More information would side in making decisions
I moved to Santa Marta, Colombia in 2018 and got a retirement Visa. When COVID 19 hit in 2020 they closed the beaches..... and stopped all air travel I had to leave. So when they finally lifted the travel ban I went to Tanzania where there weren't any COVID restrictions. After being in Dar es Salaam for 6 months I realized I didn't like it so I got on a bus and went to Mombasa Kenya where I continue to live. My monthly budget is $650.00 including rent for a 2 bedroom 2 bath apartment, electricity, WiFi, food and entertainment. I'm typically at the beach most days.😊😊😊
Most people speak some English.
I have been living abroad with my 2 kids most of the last 15 years. We can do it. We get a much better life abroad for a lot less money and strife..From Bahia Brazil
I'm surprised Jamaica isn't on this. I've seen a lot of black Americans here.
As a black person living in Canada Toronto and Montreal (if you speak fluent French) are the only places worth living. It’s still very very structurally racist so you will face challenges with finding a job (even with experience and credentials) , housing and getting loans for anything (even with good/ excellent credit).
If it’s very very racist why are you there?
Everyone is onto your victimhood
@@karlosthejackel69 she said structurally racist. She also didn't state she wanted to leave Canada. She was just giving info for people who think Canada is a bed of Roses

My niece just visited Costa Rica and she said it is beautiful!!!
Oh yes my country is beautiful also people are very friendly.
I definitely recommend Brazil. Although there is the same history of Slavery and racism, there are more of "us" there. It is the 2nd most populated Black country in the world behind Nigeria.
I just bought an apartment last year pre construction in Vitoria - the capital of the state of Espirito Santo - the next state north of Rio de Janeiro. Vitoria & it's sister city Vila Velha across the bay has a higher standard of living and lower crime rate than Rio. Blessed with beautiful beaches and mountains, this area is DEFINITELY worth looking into!
Brazil is not the second country with the most black people, this is a fallacy, 42% are white, 46% are Pardo = Mixed, and 9% are Black, in the united states you say that the child of a white person with a black person is black person, here it doesn't work that way, if a black person has a child with a white person, we call it pardo (mixed), I'm Pardo, I'm neither white nor black, and I accept myself very well that way, we have to respect the differences between countries and stop trying to impose your way of thinking on others' countries.
The buildings that you showed when Ghana was being featured are not in Ghana!!!! I know because I've been there there is no tall buildings along the coast

Good info. Black America is not a monolith. We are hugely diverse in economic and social status, aspirations , capabilities , etc., etc.
Leaving this country for greener pastures is the perfect decision for some . For countless others , we have paid the price of overcoming every obstacle set before us. This country, America, is ours more than any other ethnic group, except for native Amaricans !
The sadi part however, is that we not have any power to make decision that benefit us politically. So we are costantly at the mercy of someone else time table and on their terms period!!

Why would any Black American want move to south Africa? infrastructure in South Africa wasn't even built for the black people to begin with. The minority controls all the wealth in South Africa plus crime there is high as hell. I would much rather spend my money in an African country like Ghana or Rwanda, although they have less infrastructure, they win because the crime is low, and they ain't second class citizens in their own country.
I left the U.S. 20 months ago and moved to Merida Mexico, my next home will be the Philippines.
Not sure about that Portugal
Portugal is extremely ideal, for some Americans. I believe that if (a large number of) the natives there were not so inherently xenophobic/racist, this nation would be the better option. Blacks from 🇺🇸 could relocate to Portugal and potentially find a nearly perfect home away from home.
Absolutely love Portugal that’s where I’m heading‼️

I want to feel safe as a black woman wherever I choose to mow to.
My only advice for brothers and sisters leaving America for foreign lands is this. Leave your biases, assumptions, and preconceived notions about other cultures behind. If you want a better experience while living in foreign lands, you must do these things.
Awesome video/information. Thanks for sharing.
Glad it was helpful
but you need to stay in the US because it needs you!
Move to another country, don't think about it, don't talk about it, just do it. You only have one life to live and if you stay in the USA you will always be looked at as a second class person and that will never change in your life time but you can change it by moving.
I am not Black but found it interesting that many of the countries shown as "best" on this channel are the same ones that pop up for all ex-pats regardless of race, other than the two African countries. One point about Belize (and possibly the two African countries) is that the pace of life is very laid back. If you need a plumbing repair, something built, etc., don't expect the same prompt service you would find in the US - they will eventually come, but it will be when they are ready to do the work, not necessarily when you want it, but that is part of the charm of Belize.
A lot of countries have closed their doors to people who have not taken the vaccine. This list would look a lot different if that important fact was considered.
Yep, can't come to Ghana without the dreaded VAXX
😞
Wow
I've been watching a lot of videos about moving abroad, and my biracial (black and white) partner told me that since I'm white, I didn't understand the fear of moving to a new country like he did. I'm trans. I'm not even allowed into some countries, and if lived in those places or some others, I would probably be dead or in prison just for existing. I feel that because he's brown in the US, he could be dead or in prison just for existing, and that scares me more than anything else. Seeing videos like this might help him come around, eventually
I want to live in Ghana
I'm here to guide you as you need a Ghanaian friend 🇬🇭 here.Try it here and you will love it just like other lovely Diasporans here.🥂🥂

@@juanitawatson297 hello there Juanita ! Me checking the last time I replied you , and it took you solid 1 month before replying.Please don't keep yourself waiting there, others have made here and testifying daily, you you are AWARE, hundreds of current videos are on RUclips, leave your COMFORTABLE ZONE ! You will use portion of your income to establish a lucrative business which I will guide you, rent an affordable apartment of your choice, you will interact with your Diasporans folks here who are already enjoying it BIG time as they NEVER dream or thought of going back.
Ask me questions please !
I am always encouraging people of color to travel 5he world, and get in where your fit in best in 5his world, don't settle to please others, consider how you feel and make the move to higher heights.
There's no reason to stay in the US when you can get on a plane and leave. Many many black Americans have gone back to Africa and love it!
Your ancestors have given their blood, sweat and tears to build this nation. This is where you belong. Don’t let any circumstance or any one discourage you. Keep the hope alive. Stay and make it better for the next generation, a change will come.
Im ADOS all the way, however we got options and they should be excercised.
@Marty Yo truly is it's probably karma for killing off the native Americans or black ppl
while any change that has come, they have either reversed it or in the process of reversing. Now they don't want to teach American about race. America has not shown any determination to face its race problem and we are constantly at the mercy of how, when and how much freedom they are willing to give us at any given time. When do you say Enough is Enough and stop deluding yourself that thing will get better. That is if you really believe you deserve complete equality and have some conception of how that looks and feels. Otherwise you just continue to be a slave hoping that one day, the dominant culture will decide to recognize you humanity
As a dark-skinned black American, I'd say that the treatment one receives in foreign countries is going to be "all over the place," so to speak. It's a very subjective thing. I've been to France and Spain. I really liked most of the folks I met in both countries. I'd return to either county in a heartbeat if I could. It's safe to say that we (all) are hoping we can put this pandemic behind us A.S.A.P. ! 🌍😎
The blood of your ancestors carry more things in common then any invention of culture. The more you're like the people you live around, the less conflict, because everything is the same! There is also great pride in being with one's 'people,' strong, unique and proud.
Nowhere but Afrikan countries for me!
me to, my top picks are Ghana, Ruwana, Botswana, Namibia
Wow love this list thanks for the info
Our pleasure!
Everyone wants to live where they are comfortable. Just remember to be a good citizen and don’t feel entitled wherever you go. Most of the world feel that Americans are rude and pushy. Be nice.
Canada for me would be the place as I live 10 minutes from the Canadian border and I dont mean 10 minutes away from Windsor. Toronto is a very large city where I actually feel accepted. Granted! You can't run Away from Racism (even the countries you picked, you'll find Racism) but I do feel more relaxed in Canada, then here in the United States. This country has officially become a shit hole country
Ghana 🇬🇭
Senegal 🇸🇳
Thank you for making to this important list, I am from Malawi 🇲🇼 and I love ❤️ #Africa.
So despite being proud of their heritage, most blacks don’t want to go to Africa, and Ghana is the only country there on the list.
A great list. Seriously considering Dominican Republic as a retiree. Property is very inexpensive👍🏿
You need to revisit Thailand and Costa Rica and update your video. Thailand does not have a strong infrastructure. The most annoying aspect of Thailand infrastructure is the old waste and water system. You are not allowed to flush toilet paper because of the issues with the waste system pipes. The water has been deemed non-consumable and people are warned NOT to wash edibles such as vegetable in tap water. Thailand’s waste and water pipe issue has been a decade’s long issue. This very troubling aspect of Thailand’s infrastructure should not go unmentioned. Throwing used toilet paper in the trash ; if you don't have a "BUM GUN" is something quite challenging and extraordinary if you are from the US.
Costa Rica Does Not have a low cost of living 60% cheaper than the US. In fact Costa Rica cost of living is comparable to NY and that did not happen in the last year or so since this video was posted. There was in some cases a higher cost of living just at the grocery store.
It is videos like these that actually become a part of peoples research to make a big move out of the US but for those who do not do their due diligence and just go on what some of these videos purport, it can be very mildly to very highly disappointing. Be mindful.
Those photos of high sky scrapers in used for Ghana is false. Those buildings are not in Ghana.Use real pictures atleast
I noticed that too. Accra is more developed now but they dont have that many skyscrapers.
The tall buildings make i laff saaa🤣🤣🤣
Lol
Go visit Ghana your self
Great content. With the increase push of the vax, a list showing those countries that don't require the shot would be great.
I would never leave the country because of racism. It is everywhere I would leave for a better living experience such as Healthcare,friendlier people,culture, crime,etc. Blacks are very mean here towards each other..thats enough alone. Now I expect a pig to be a pig in some cases. I show kindness because we are human beings❤
I just recently moved to nyc and ppl here always think I’m a Dominican or something like that. I’m born n raised in the south don’t know nothing about my real culture or heritage 😅 but I’ve always been drawn to any and all indigenous cultures. I even lived on a reservation for a while. So I bet I could survive pretty well on one of them central/South American countries or islands. I’m going to make it a goal.
I think it’s wrong af to just label us all as “Black” bc of darker skin. Who knows what all cultures each of us really are. I look forward to international travel so I can have some real enriching life experience! Go glad I found this #blaxit on TikTok! 😍
It's becuz u are lightskin and mixedlooking like majority of Latinos from the Caribbean... Real blacks who are darkskin or even brownskin don't look like us and have different experiences
Who wtf moving to Spain, Canada, and Portugal. It's not much different from America racism
Will you please make a video outlining the best foreign countries 4 Black Americans 2 find a mate?
Lol going the s-expat route ..you should try African countries, #blacklove
of course it's best in Africa
@@micronotsoft6891 Why is Africa the best place 4 Black Americans 2 find a mate?
As a white woman from North Europe I have always considered Africa as the own Continent of the black people. This was nice to watch! Beautiful places.
If i were to ever move out of USA it will have to be a tropical place like the Caribbean or south Asia somewhere
Great video, well explained. 😌
