No colorrism in Jamaica you dumbass the country is majority balck so how could that be ? 😂😂 it's all about your last name aka class if your grate great great grandpa open a business that's big in Jamaica and your balck you get respect from your name and who you are
None of that only classim I know so many darkskin uptown Jamaicans that's how I know your not Jamaicas the comments easily shows how's from Jamaica and who just wishes they were Jamaican 😂😂
@@javonwatkins6924 Racism, colorism, and classism are alive and well in Jamaica. Ok, you admit classism is in Jamaica. Spice in her song talks about the effect of colorism in Jamaica on the Darker Jamaicans. Also in Jamaica the lighter people refer to the darker ones as black boys or black gals and the Chinese and straight hair business people only hire people of their own race. These are all facts.
@javonwatkins6924 you honestly believe there is no colourism in Jamaica? Having dark skin uptown people does not mean there is no colourism or prejudice. Just stop 🙄
I was born in the 50s and was told that being of dark skin i couldn't be a teller at bank or work at the Airport. Colorism existed in Jamaica when the British were there.
Lol, and in those days, who owns those places and made their rules. That not colorist. In jamaican high school in browns town it was forbidden for blacks up until the 80's
Racism was live and direct in Kingston Jamaica in Jamaica. If you were too, dark skinned life was hard for you. That’s the biggest racism right there. You wonder why everybody’s not bleaching their skin I’m proud to be black no matter what.
How about whites that tan there skin 😂😂😂iyou can get skin cancer from that the world doesn't down play whites tho only blacks it's sad optain education and realize the would targets blacks only to be negative about white and all races are just as bad
That girl was very true about being served by our own then when the oppressors show up they kiss their asses all the time that is everywhere with the black people! That makes our ancestors turn their heads when they call on them for freedom from the dam oppressors. It’s horrific to have to be mistreated by our own for the wicked oppressors💪🏽🤦🏽♀️😔🙏🏽no excuses black people none!
Absolutely love the fact they burned it down no racism that needs to be everywhere period! If only black people untied💪🏽🙏🏽😔🙌 I love my Jamaicans 4eva! I had my best experiences with them thank you very much 💐🥰🤗😘💫💫💫
There is Racism, Classism, and Colourism in Jamaica. I was at a Church recently, and they were planning a harvest supper. And to my surprise a deacon of the Church advised the congregation that Teachers, Nurses,and Police officers will eat first. So now what do you call that?
That's is so true, keep your racism out of other people's countries don't bring that nonsense everywhere you go , I never knew what racism was until I came to America , I felt like crap on there shoe , but when they came to Jamaica 🇯🇲 we treated them sooo nice we welcome everyone, even when I was a child we loved to see the tourist we takes them around places we have conversations about our country and different communities, so it was very shameful and upsetting that I felt so much racism in America, even now 2025 , there are places you can't goes to because of racism.
That's the problem, the ones that come to Jamaica are not racist they want to experience your culture, your food and music. I bet the majority of racist Americans have never left their basements, never mind their country.
While Jamaica may not have racism, it certainly has "colourism". Most Jamaicans if they're honest will tell you this. Unfortunately it's not something that's spoken about openly.
I am a Black and British Jamaican, I have read all the views and opinions on here and totally agree with most points of view, I think this mindset is from Colonoism, we need to educate ourselves, by going back into our African history, to see how powerful Black people are, Kings and Queens, be proud to be black as I am, bleaching is a negative mindset,So sad to think that 😢
I saw it as a child. You were treated differently even in the classroom. There were teacher's pet as they were called teachers pampered them they were able to sit in teachers lap. It was obvious rub in my face. We all face it at some time of our lives, as getting older in the church setting. The rest is history.💯
Teachers pet was the bright minded student and I see black girls and boys as Teachers pet is wasn't about color,but maybe ur Teachers pets were light complexion and not about their intelligence
"Black is beauty Red is corruption" is not a racist concept, its is more nuianced than that: as children we make fun of EVERYONE, the suck finga jack, the late bird, the libba lip, the skirt nose, ect... As children we pick at each others difference and we grow strong self esteem.
If it came from white people to people of colour that would be racism. If from another person of colour its colourism. Classism, colourism and the class system was based on racism. Growing up in Jamaica in days long pasts, this was heavily based on whites being at the top, then the red bones or light browns skins, Creoles or coloureds, even the Chinese and Indians were treated to be higher up the ladder than the darkest or least mixed black persons. Aftermath practices of ex colonial European masters
Until I was 13 and emigrated-to-Canada did I become aware of what influenced me directly-&-indirectly regarding classicism-colourism-racism .. ! My biases were subtle and if dual quality, despite innate self-acceptance .. !
Am a fair skin Jamaican living in the USA 🇺🇸 for 40+ years. Went to school in the 70's i was told that 💩 has a child by class mates too . Today I would say it's a form of bullying .
I grew up seeing white and light skin people doing all the good, decent jobs. Dark skin people did not have jobs in the post office banks and business places. I know for a fact that Jamaican chinese and Indians call us nanes, and we, in turn, call them names. The fairer skin people had better opportunities than the blacks. There was a time when only fair skin children who belonged to the colonisers attended high school. Even now, look at who owns the business, white, Indian chinese foreigners and Middle East people. In the hotel.
They STILL put light skinned people in the banks. I went through one small town on the way to green island and the three cashiers were lighter skinned women with type 3 hair texture. I couldn't believe that in some places, they still practice this behaviour.
sandysegree, we know things like this occur, we can complain or as BP we can do for ourselves and for other BP. There will never be fairness, so we can complainall we want. take a pafe out of other groups playbook whostick togwether and become successful. Dont expect anything from another group, only from yourself and your own people.
Pure nonsense. I arrived from the uk to jamaica in the 70s. I experience racism. It you were black, you could not get jobs in banks and other financial institutions. If you lived in a none white area of Jamaica, you could not get a job. Just of where you live. Classism and racism go hand in hand in jamaica. This is a legacy of slavery. My grandfather told me if you are white, you alright, if you're brown, you stay around, but if your black, you stay at the back. Racism is rife in jamaica.
I wonder how my mum navigate England 1970 she was light skin black. I remember her telling she used work with irish ladies because they were treated badly as well. She also mentioned west Indian women used to laugh at her and other Africans because they were African. . I experienced it but it started dying down around 2005 onwards by 2015 it was very low
@8:00 Sometimes a bit of female competition is in that too. Some ppl might not like you because they think (in their mine) that you are better than them.
"Black is beauty and red is corruption. " I got that in primary school also, and I'm not white, just light coloured skin, lol. And this girl was actually a dark skinned Indian! Imagine that. At the time, my feelings were just this girl cussing me for no reason at all. I've never experienced racism in Jamaica and I've always lived here.
Oh please. Just sounds like the Indian girl had absorbed some Pan African ideology- nothing wrong with that. I'm light skinned and I comprehend my privilege when I go to Jamaica. Why would I cry over someone uplifting the beauty of Blkness? What kind of fragility is that. Blk IS beautiful. That is not racism. Someone empowered her and she repeated it to you. Is it her job to uplift your skin tone. The thing with light skin privilege is that you can move on and find favour elsewhere.
@jamaicadiaspora6642 I was an 8 yr old way back in the day. Knew nothing about racism or colorism. Just knew this girl was cussing me and calling me names becauseof my skin. Colour. She was kinda a bully in the school also. Didn't affect me one way or the other. It's only now that I think about it I'm wondering. But now ppl call me browning and I say hi. 😅
If you keep looking at the symptoms, you won't see the root cause in parliament, the Corporations that hold most of the wealth of the country, and foreign entities that play puppet show with the politicians.
Where I am from this debate need to happen, because my people say they are blk but many look white with soft blonde hair😢 and some with blond hair blue eyes, I believe they were all blk untill I came to UK and the white kids in my school told me that my family are white and they don't look blk, this is where it shocked.
Haiti 🇭🇹 and Jamaica 🇯🇲 I think we forget our history I think we forget And what happened To us The Jews Don't forget what happened to them in Germany😢 So I think Jamaicans Come first here in Jamaica❤ do you know that a Jamaican give you more tips more than any other Nation because he understand where we're coming from😂
No need to ask that question, it is there interwoven in the cries of the people. Just study the songs coming out of Jamaica. Note also that the zeal for fast money as the salvation diverted attention from that aspect of Jamaica's social ills. Secondly, why do people object when African parents seek to prepare their children to cope with the reality of their society? I saw a deer nudging its young to its feet not long after birth. Like Africans, they live in hostile territory where you quickly equip yourself with the reality and the knowledge to cope lest that reality overpowers you.
Racism is systemic. Does that exist in Jamaica? Not that I know of. It’s our own people who fight against each other. We have the power to create wealth and that power is unity. Do we have that as black Jamaicans? Absolutely not!!!!
🇯🇲💯Our most racist Jamaicans are our politicians .our politicians makes decisions against the Masse's of the Jamaican people. Out politicians seems to be honorary white when they are elected to office.
@javonwatkins6924 .Each time Andrew holness give a house that taxes payers paid for he Andrew holness take a picture to show off,,which seems to me he is a fake..
Your so right..The politicians are the disaster in Jamaica especially the Andrew holness led Government and we think that time come now for Broo Gad government to pack their bags and get out of here..
I don't like when none🇯🇲, speak for 🇯🇲 because as he open his mouth and say 🇯🇲s say there is no colorism in 🇯🇲 i knew he lying.🇯🇲s not going to say that. Their is history of that in the past mainly at banks, airport, hospitality jobs and Ms jamaica and Jamaican people fight against it, so let experience people tell the story.
Black people got insulted and bun it down. Out of many one is distorting dih African msjoriy, while beìng marginalised by minorities. It is a ruse and psychological war fare on dih African majority. And yuh fell fih dih bait. If dem noh marginalized, dem would'nt ah bleach; tink logically. Same wey it did ah gwaahn innah dih USA innah dih 1950s and 60s.
Please the worst experience of racism, colorism and classism is from Jamaicans that are mixed Asian and yt. It was not nice in the 80s and 90s. And let’s not start with your own blacks putting you down for your hair, color, and features if they had a more mixed feature
Your not Jamaican 😂😂😂Jamaica has no racism and no colorism it's all about your wealth and family members who have something on the land 😂😂😂and how you act simple
The problem is many Jamaicans don’t understand racism. They take any kind of personal preferences for what ever reasons that an individual may display towards them as racism. Personal preferences exist everywhere on planet earth and at every point in human history. Stop defining everything that hurt your feelings as racism. Most of negative treatments and behaviours is tied to the internalized self hate of the majority of dark skin Jamaicans. There is no racism in the North American European South African Asian Latin American context in Jamaica. And hence the reason for the difference in point of views
All of dese people be youths, who hav been programmed and condition ya should talk wit de elders who will surely speak truth. Wi people all over dis planet are being trotted down, overstand
Sis listen to the people who live their in Jamaica. There is a great difference between the rich and the poor. They usually have a different colour. Slavery has left its legacy.
The way I see it most Jamaicans accept their lot and accept their position in society which is extremely detrimental in the long run. With all the gentrification going on in this island and all these foreigners coming to live in Jamaica it is only a matter of time when the average Jamaican realises that they have become second class citizens whilst these foreigners flaunt their Jamaican passports and their wealth. Be careful that this out of many one people doesn’t backfire on you 😮
Yeap because there are no black generational wealth, all the wealth are still in the hands of the slave masters descendant ! When Manley came into power and said that black Jamaicans should walk through the world on their feet and not on their knees ! The white , Syrians and Chinese were offended because they were reluctant , they would rather leave Jamaica than share the wealth with black people and there were exodus of white, Syrians and Chinese who left Jamaica to America hoping for America to fix Jamaica for them to go back and so racist America put Puppet Seaga in power by having the CIA roaming all over the Island influencing the people to vote Seaga !! Jamaican been saying the Chinese are trying to own everything but black people don’t own nothing to beginning with Britain , America and Canada are who owns everything ! Hmm 🤔
Your not Jamaican the hills of Jamaica has majority black people there ghetto white jamaicans ghetto Chinse Jamaicans don't hate because your family became nothing 😂😂😂
Jamaican has classism and colourism. No racism there. There are dark skin people who are among the elites or who have/came from money. If racism is there, I’d say it’s from the non-Jamaican Europeans who invested in the country. That’s the problem. Also because of what was taught due to colorism, yes, when yuh brown(female) yuh have a upper hand, you’re fit to marry a pastor, you can work in the bank, the airport, get front desk jobs. It’s changed over the years. I think the first time I noticed a pastor marry a female darker than him or from the typical complexion back home was here in Canada. A dark skin guy had more options, however, he would choose a lighter complexion female. I remember , I used to date a guy here in Canada. Jamaican people. His mom, very big colour lady and his dad was dark skin. My complexion or darker. She was married to him for many years. When my bf introduced me to her she was very rude. He later told me that she didn’t want him dating a dark skin girl. We broke up.
Well I am here to say Happy New Years to everyone of my black people in the world whether you're dead or alive happy New Year's to you One love Mama Africa❤❤❤ and don't you forget to pray to your black Jesus😂 rise of Fallen Fighters rise up and take your stand the slave that fights and run away is children live to fight another day my brothers and sisters remember black man Redemption❤
The same reason why black people are in Jamaica you dumbass 😂😂😂😂if your not Jamaican just visit the land and don't worry about it simple because it's not your nation 😂
That 'black is beautiful, red is correction' was very common in Jamaica which I have experienced myself and I'm not white, just mixed. When I was about 10 years old my mother too me to see her aunt at an infermy. Her aunt ask her van get her out of there because she was being teased for being "white" hence she shouldn't be an only "white" in Staci a place.
The Jamaicain people do not know their roots. Once you learn your roots like the maroons. There is a lot of historical information at archieves and goes back as far as 1700. You will find out that some of you have bloodline of sphardric jews and Irish blacks original from Aeon islands. We had almost 5000 free people, not slaves in Jamaica, and they were not white. So, we are learning and change will happen with education younger generation.
Dash I'm glad you learned Jamaica isn't racist or doesn't have colorism we only have classim ❤ big up dash you need to visit Jamaica so you can see the truth of how beautiful and everyone gets along
Of course racism exists in Jamaica. The majority of our ancestors were enslaved - not indentured servants! Slaves! Some of you need to emancipate your minds so you can live the life YAH created us to live - WAKE UP and LIVE
Africans want to claim Jamaica success that's all they are obsessed with us but in a bad way they want to take what's ours 😂 while Japanese appreciates our culture
Go and see for yourself. I guarantee there is more colourism in Africa. Jamaica will handle its issues, will Africa. Unity means a sharing of resources. Some of you youtubers are not giving back to the Caribbean, especially Jamaica. We have very little faith in the people of the continent.
He does know he has clearly done his research. You don't have to enter that country these days. Knowledge is everywhere. Jamaican never had to enter South Africa to support them during apartheid era.
@ I strongly disagree with you South Africa has got its independence but the whites and Indians have still got their privileges it’s exactly the same for Jamaica you go and research that Dash commented on the burning of an hotel that was allegedly done by the people the racism and white privileged and Indian and asian privilege is well hidden but clear to see
I’m Jamaican I know for a fact uno bow to white people. If a Jamaican find out they have white relatives the celebrate. Uno licky licky til uno get trick
Dash thank you for talking about somewhere else other than the U.S. It just seems like all your African youtubers all focus on America, & I don't know why.
Why don't Africans focus on Africa 😂😂😂that's what I can't understand 😂😂like Jamaicans only focus on Jamaicans problems and Haiti and other Caribbeans because that's our region 😂😂😂Africans need help

I am from Jamaica and Jamaican is one of most racist Black Country
Dash you need to come to Jamaica and get your own experience, please try your best 🤔🤔
It nah go happen
I don't like when none🇯🇲, speak for 🇯🇲 because as he open his mouth and say 🇯🇲s say there is no colorism in 🇯🇲 i knew he lying.🇯🇲s not going to say that. Their is history of that in the past mainly at banks, airport, hospitality jobs and Ms jamaica and Jamaican people fight against it, so let experience people tell the story.
Manley!
HELLO SAH!!! Yuh RED???? AND? 😮
it´s normal for Black people be harsh to other Blacks., What you think the school system teach us? Teach us to forget about ourselves...
Black people got insulted and bun it down. Out of many one is distorting dih African msjoriy, while beìng marginalised by minorities. It is a ruse and psychological war fare on dih African majority. And yuh fell fih dih bait. If dem noh marginalized, dem would'nt ah bleach; tink logically. Same wey it did ah gwaahn innah dih USA innah dih 1950s and 60s.
Please the worst experience of racism, colorism and classism is from Jamaicans that are mixed Asian and yt. It was not nice in the 80s and 90s. And let’s not start with your own blacks putting you down for your hair, color, and features if they had a more mixed feature
There is a lot of racism in Jamaica that is a big lie.
To who
Your not Jamaican 😂😂😂Jamaica has no racism and no colorism it's all about your wealth and family members who have something on the land 😂😂😂and how you act simple
Preaaachhhhhhhh
@@javonwatkins6924Bull 💩. There is nuff racism and colourism in JA.
Classisim is more popular in Jamaica 🇯🇲
The problem is many Jamaicans don’t understand racism. They take any kind of personal preferences for what ever reasons that an individual may display towards them as racism. Personal preferences exist everywhere on planet earth and at every point in human history. Stop defining everything that hurt your feelings as racism. Most of negative treatments and behaviours is tied to the internalized self hate of the majority of dark skin Jamaicans. There is no racism in the North American European South African Asian Latin American context in Jamaica. And hence the reason for the difference in point of views
All of dese people be youths, who hav been programmed and condition ya should talk wit de elders who will surely speak truth. Wi people all over dis planet are being trotted down, overstand
Sis listen to the people who live their in Jamaica. There is a great difference between the rich and the poor. They usually have a different colour.
Slavery has left its legacy.
The way I see it most Jamaicans accept their lot and accept their position in society which is extremely detrimental in the long run. With all the gentrification going on in this island and all these foreigners coming to live in Jamaica it is only a matter of time when the average Jamaican realises that they have become second class citizens whilst these foreigners flaunt their Jamaican passports and their wealth. Be careful that this out of many one people doesn’t backfire on you 😮
Yeap because there are no black generational wealth, all the wealth are still in the hands of the slave masters descendant ! When Manley came into power and said that black Jamaicans should walk through the world on their feet and not on their knees ! The white , Syrians and Chinese were offended because they were reluctant , they would rather leave Jamaica than share the wealth with black people and there were exodus of white, Syrians and Chinese who left Jamaica to America hoping for America to fix Jamaica for them to go back and so racist America put Puppet Seaga in power by having the CIA roaming all over the Island influencing the people to vote Seaga !! Jamaican been saying the Chinese are trying to own everything but black people don’t own nothing to beginning with Britain , America and Canada are who owns everything ! Hmm 🤔
Your not Jamaican the hills of Jamaica has majority black people there ghetto white jamaicans ghetto Chinse Jamaicans don't hate because your family became nothing 😂😂😂
@@winstynglyn6893 lmao I love it how Americans Africans and people who aren't Caribbean think they know Jamaica 😂😂😂
@@winstynglyn6893most rich Jamaicans are black all the big car owners Mansions etc they just lay low and don't show off there assets
All Coin of people in the US in Canada in America in the UK and their or bullshit their also
RACISM WHAT THAT WHO FEEDING ME I AM NOT LOOKING ATTHEM K M T
Compare to most of Caribbean, Americas, Europe, racism and colorism in 🇯🇲 is very low.
Nonsense. If that's the case why is skin bleaching normal in JA?
@@Coco-uk9tv Skin bleaching is looked down on in Jamaica
@@NativeNomad10 Then why do so many people there still do it and why are dark skinned women made fun of in JA?
Who is doing the oppression now?
Jamaican has classism and colourism. No racism there. There are dark skin people who are among the elites or who have/came from money. If racism is there, I’d say it’s from the non-Jamaican Europeans who invested in the country. That’s the problem. Also because of what was taught due to colorism, yes, when yuh brown(female) yuh have a upper hand, you’re fit to marry a pastor, you can work in the bank, the airport, get front desk jobs. It’s changed over the years. I think the first time I noticed a pastor marry a female darker than him or from the typical complexion back home was here in Canada. A dark skin guy had more options, however, he would choose a lighter complexion female. I remember , I used to date a guy here in Canada. Jamaican people. His mom, very big colour lady and his dad was dark skin. My complexion or darker. She was married to him for many years. When my bf introduced me to her she was very rude. He later told me that she didn’t want him dating a dark skin girl. We broke up.
Well I am here to say Happy New Years to everyone of my black people in the world whether you're dead or alive happy New Year's to you One love Mama Africa❤❤❤ and don't you forget to pray to your black Jesus😂 rise of Fallen Fighters rise up and take your stand the slave that fights and run away is children live to fight another day my brothers and sisters remember black man Redemption❤
That's not true. He is blind towards racism
Why are they in Jamaica in the first place? Lol
The same reason why black people are in Jamaica you dumbass 😂😂😂😂if your not Jamaican just visit the land and don't worry about it simple because it's not your nation 😂
Because they were borned here so they are jamaican just as us
Sir, that is outdated. Please!!! Do not look for any organizations to unteach wrong teaching, do it yourself and do it for your children. OK.
Same thing different word ,indirect programming , (common wealth) to who ???
That 'black is beautiful, red is correction' was very common in Jamaica which I have experienced myself and I'm not white, just mixed. When I was about 10 years old my mother too me to see her aunt at an infermy. Her aunt ask her van get her out of there because she was being teased for being "white" hence she shouldn't be an only "white" in Staci a place.
You cant even go on the beach or go into some hotel's in Jamaica about you dont know racism 😂
😮😮But You Come to Amerikkka😮With Predjudice Against Foundational Blacks....
The Jamaicain people do not know their roots. Once you learn your roots like the maroons. There is a lot of historical information at archieves and goes back as far as 1700. You will find out that some of you have bloodline of sphardric jews and Irish blacks original from Aeon islands. We had almost 5000 free people, not slaves in Jamaica, and they were not white. So, we are learning and change will happen with education younger generation.
Dash I'm glad you learned Jamaica isn't racist or doesn't have colorism we only have classim ❤ big up dash you need to visit Jamaica so you can see the truth of how beautiful and everyone gets along
Of course racism exists in Jamaica. The majority of our ancestors were enslaved - not indentured servants! Slaves! Some of you need to emancipate your minds so you can live the life YAH created us to live - WAKE UP and LIVE
Why don't you go and make video of your own country get out of jamaica
Africans want to claim Jamaica success that's all they are obsessed with us but in a bad way they want to take what's ours 😂 while Japanese appreciates our culture
Go and see for yourself.
I guarantee there is more colourism in Africa.
Jamaica will handle its issues, will Africa.
Unity means a sharing of resources. Some of you youtubers are not giving back to the Caribbean, especially Jamaica.
We have very little faith in the people of the continent.
Why your calling him white Jamaican that's racist bcuz I know you don't think Jamaican is a race
This dude is obsessed with Jamaica
White Jamaican WTF
You express racism through colorism and classism against your own people.
"selvin" talking a lot of rot.
The races of people in Jamaica is an English experiment which is still in progress, that's what i was told in England 🤔🤔
Dash you don`t know what you are talking about you have never been to Jamaica so you have no idea what your talking about
He does know he has clearly done his research. You don't have to enter that country these days. Knowledge is everywhere. Jamaican never had to enter South Africa to support them during apartheid era.
@ I strongly disagree with you South Africa has got its independence but the whites and Indians have still got their privileges it’s exactly the same for Jamaica you go and research that Dash commented on the burning of an hotel that was allegedly done by the people the racism and white privileged and Indian and asian privilege is well hidden but clear to see
I didn't know anything about racism until I went to the UK, it shocked me to see how white people treat black people
Well said Bro, I keep telling him that he hasn't got a clue.
I’m Jamaican I know for a fact uno bow to white people. If a Jamaican find out they have white relatives the celebrate. Uno licky licky til uno get trick
Dash thank you for talking about somewhere else other than the U.S. It just seems like all your African youtubers all focus on America, & I don't know why.
Why don't Africans focus on Africa 😂😂😂that's what I can't understand 😂😂like Jamaicans only focus on Jamaicans problems and Haiti and other Caribbeans because that's our region 😂😂😂Africans need help
There was no racism in Jamaica, maybe colorism and classism
Colourism is a form of racism.
Compare to most of Caribbean, Americas, Europe, racism and colorism in 🇯🇲 is very low.
