    Back in April 2022 we traveled back to South America to visit another country. This time we traveled to beautiful Colombia (Medellin, Guatape & Cartagena). While visiting Cartagena, Colombia we took a day trip to visit Palenque. Palenque is located 70km/43 miles south of Cartagena. Palenque, a black community in rural Colombia is known as The First Free Town for Africans in America. Palenque is a village full of Afro Colombian men and women. A village of about 4000 people, a mile and half long. Palenque is a colorful community of dark skin Afro Colombians with thick natural beautiful hair, full of culture, beauty and history. It truly was the highlight of our trip to Colombia. Check out the full video to get a glimpse of the of beauty Palenque and don’t forget to 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦, 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 and 𝐬𝐮𝐛𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐛𝐞.

    I went to Colombia to get my teeth done, I decide to take an excursion to the palenque village. It was life changing, like u said Africa is right in the middle of Colombia, what a beautiful place and beautiful people. It goes to show all the information they suppressed us from in school, once again the trip was life changing for the good.

    Thank you, other than buying souvenir to support the Palenque people, it would be wiser to sponsor or send school supplies, or even look into locale areas to donate or share the little bit we have. Great narration! Keep going!

      The system is racist therefore it's impossible to see justice and equality. It's even hard to see the indigenous/native Colombian in most places let alone TV and so on. The only future for equality for all will from the young generation hopefully..

      There is a Colombian news reporter who definitely has some black ancestry. She's gorgeous...her name is Ilia Calderón. Once there was a Black Colombian beauty contest winner and her nickname was Black Barbie.

      I don't know what Colombian programs or news you watch because there are, actors, journalists, beauty queens and even players. In beauty queens there are many, only at the international level they have not represented the country so much, but there were, The Black Barbie, Andrea Tovar, and recently a girl from Buenaventura who looked like another Barbie, however, she did not win.

      Colombia is spelled with o. Yes, you'd be welcome. I've gone there on three different occasions and you're treated like anyone else. Most the fútbol ( soccer) players are Black or mixed. People there recognize the influence of Black culture in their food, clothes and music. Listen to bullerengue, cumbia, & salsa, etc.

    Hey dude, not everyone is clueless like black Americans my dude. People all around the world knows that black people are in Colombia. Black people are in every country in the Western Hemisphere , except Mexico due to slavery. Also, visit have fun and leave these people alone. Do not Americanize them. They do need your exposure

But it just seems like it is always a wow factor when Black American realize that they are not the only black culture that exists on this planet. it's not a black American thing. it is an American thing. they are usually ignorant of geography, which hey do not teach in schools anymore. They are kids in other countries in poor countries that knows more about USA civics than college students in America. SO I am not aiming this shot at only black Americans
