This year I was born,no wonder why I use to ask myself why I have so much love for Jamaica. ( Nigeria)
Hey guys Jamaica gained independence on Aug. 6th 1962. Trinidad and Tobago gained independence on Aug. 31st 1962. So T&T and Jamaica are twins basically but born with different histories.
❤
Same old Jamaica, but with some development. Some of the poor inner cities, especially the carrisons are still the same. Some parts of the city mash up same way. Some very good and strong same way.
But like those Jamaicans in that time. We too are passing through. Most of those school pickney dem are senior citizens now in their 60s or 70s. The old people then are long gone or about to. All we need is about maybe 80years of life.
We too, the Jamaicans of today are passing through this life in our little island. And others will follow after unto eternity.
I am just happy that l am a part of this period (1974.....)
Thank you life.....thank you Jamaica.
Jamaica looks so clean and orderly the people of Jamaica on looks so organized the school children looks like well-behaved .that tail suit that was worn by prime minister Bustamante look so unique
Because it's a tourist video , they like to hide the poverty and desolate conditions from European critics who will say they are undermining and mistreating the population pressuring for change .
@@sheep.herder No wonder why Haiti killed off their white population
I to hate annoying people 💀
@@GambianoBahiano315 your comment is hidden
@StarOfDavid444 respect
This blast from the past is amazing.
INDEED!
I was 6 ! Independence wasn’t worth it! No crime,, could walk to the Catholic Church for night novena with my teenager sister and wasn’t afraid ! Had the doors open all day ,this was in small town MayPen back in 50’s and 60’s! I could go on and on !
I agree....independence definitely wasn't worth it at all.
It was worth it. I didnt want to continue as a Colony of Britain our former slavemasters.@@ninjackunited6609
I dont think most people in the comments realize how under developed Jamaica was specially in rural areas under british rule. With independence Jamaica has much higher rates of water and electeicity access and not only that the spurces of these needs are very reliable compared to many countries that surround her. Only a mind that is still enslaved would believe that being colonized and being bonded by a foreign power is a better option.
Jamaica is not independent.
It's even worse now...full of corruption poverty and crime riddled...
@@zumaanandrade3961 China took over from the British! It’s even worse because they will owe billions to them!
We'd still be better off. Similar to Cayman.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 nice try
Damn, my mom was born 2 years later
No need to curse....
PTL for your mom's birth.
And yours....
Folks dressed with dignity - changes didn’t bring violence
…. The people changed and culture changed- poor people kept their environment clean and even in the slums folks swept their yards--dignity and pride
Folks didn’t murder or steal as much today - not Jamaica the culture and people influenced by others
I am from Jamaica so i’m happy to see this🎉❤
Me too
Why does it look better back then and so clean and orderly.
Black and white film tend to do that. It may have been somewhat better though.
Smh please stop
Because its always better under British rule, as a Jamaican Royalist myself
@@derkdillon7938 it really was like that so pls shut up
Because we were aware own people then and. It we let to white man take over and made us fight against each other
It's 2024 now and Jamaica and Trinidad and Tobago are both 61 years old today basically. I forgot how old they both are so I'm not sure
I never knew the stadium was once a river bed interesting😮
You did hear mention that the stadium was just built so I am sure they were still working out kinks such as proper drainage.
@@Stonygut1865 Still waiting for the white man to install water pumps!
An is it so pretty back then 😭.
My sweet sweet Jamaica 🇯🇲
I was 3 years old❤❤
🇯🇲
Independence without a clear path
Jamaica is not independent country. It’s not a republic so therefore she is still under the monarchy of England.
Dem shuda wait until ja build up be4 independent
It looks like a better place then than now lol
Definitely
🥱🐑🐑🐑👈
But it wasnt.
The sheer contrast between British colonialism and French colonialism is not highlighted enough.
Wow
Im new here,
Coz it was. Simple ting!
I was 11 years old and I remember it well. Short back and sides mi Lads and a salute to the new Independent nation. So how are they doing here in 2023 ???
Watching those formative politicians, I miss their statemenship….pure neva see come see a politician dese days
It was, can't you see that a pure crosses in there now
At least some.of the crosses left.
Is anybody alive still from this
Yeah some but not many
It's 1962...NOT 1862!
Listen up, most of those people are gone...I was 8 going onto 70 now...most of those people especially those over 20 or 30, would not be around....REMEMBER I said "most"..because there are not a lot of 100 year old in Jamaica, although lots may have migrated!
Them trick the people loook
Ultimately this isn't made in 1962 it imperceptibly but it just 2023
I wish to God we don't get independence 😢 look at us now
2:31 The musicians wear the bandana because we are Moors and they don’t even know it...😢
You weren't
Nope. They are not.
I was born eight (8) days later in Kingston. I despise the British Royal Family and everything they stand for..However, I appreciate the honesty and truth of the Late Princess Diana and Prince Henry.
And what on earth do you have to despise them for. What have they ever done you or us.
@@LordDim1The British were the ones that brought African slaves to Jamaica in the first place. They abolished slavery in Jamaica in 1807, but they still took another 31 years to declare all slaves free. That's just one answer to your question, there are more.
@@KenpoKid77 Events which happened 200 years ago. It’s absolutely ridiculous to hate people born centuries after something happened.
@@KenpoKid77I come from Jamaicans from West Africa from Nigeria. I saw a clip of a Nigerian woman saying she would rather die in the Mediterranean than go back to Nigeria
@@LordDim1........ WHAT,YOU DONT KNOW??????
Are you a Jamacian? To say the least,can most of your ancestors read and write ????? ....just begin with that 😮😮
Jamaica will be a rich country today if The British were still there. Look at Cayman Islands, Bermuda etc that would be Jamaica if the British were there
And the population would not exist.
@@judiderman7104 What population is that?
Not true, Britain did and does little to nothing for Cayman..
@@Coconutbabez you are funny. Cayman islands riches mostly comes from the financial sector and tourism. The reason people and businesses confidently invest there is because they are backed by the United kingdom and their stability is assured. If the UK was gone no one will be investing there and the financial and banking sector will vanish so when you say UK does nothing you have a lot to learn
Rich but unequal , the British would make sure to put themselves and those of higher complexion on top while creating a brown vs black divide to keep majority from accessing better living .
And as for the future 🥲
What future?
Worst day ever
Rushed into independence without doing what was necessary to establish procedures and mechanisms required for proper governance and accountability.
There should been a referendum for such a consequential constitutional change, just as there had been for separation from the West Indies Federation (a much looser attachment).
Britain herself is now tasting the sweet candy of colonialism.😂😂
She WILL BE BACK
How so if she dead
🤜❤️🤛
Then, a novel way to get Jamaica off the books economically without any responsibility to atone and pay reparations for past injustices, while still keeping its (Britain’s) feet on the necks of Jamaicans. Just a thought!🇯🇲🇺🇸
😅😅😅😅😅
Look at ppl be4 covid
Did you ever regret getting independent…. Look at French Polynesia… people there got French passports, all benefits from France, free healthcare and education…. All social support You would be the same under British… was it worth it
The fake crowd noise smfh
.CONDEMNATION.DESTRUCTION.DAMNATION.WORK.UN-INDEPENDENCE.
Saddest day in our lives
What do you mean?
Yep worst decision we ever made
U do realize your country is the way it is because they wanted u to suffer for wanting independence..also wanted to delegitimize your govt so you would have these sentiments
@@toraintyrell9448 u want to be back to British rule?
@@space4166 would be better than the rule of these politicians by far, independence doesn’t benefit the average Jamaican citizen in my opinion, only the crooked government officials that got the power as a result that only led to the them exploiting luting and selling the country piece by piece
The moors playing the National anthems
Someone get UK on speed dial to colonize us again.
🤣
Speak for yourself slave.
With your slave mentality..☹️
You're an NEE
Why do you want Britain back 💀
Ypu actually want to be colonized? Wow...
Everything always benefits the slave owners/colonisers
😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣 A PENDING STATE... 🔥🔥🔥🔥
👏🏻🤍🤍🤍🤍
٣٠/٨/٣٠٢٣..
White wash
Can a white man be a Maroon? If yes explain, if no explain.
Just look up the definition of the word. Maroon doesn’t mean black or it doesn’t mean Jamaican either
@@ivorysteele A White maroon have to originate from Africa or adopted in Jamaica or somewhere else. (Nigeria)
@@FrancisAromolaran-nf5op do you own a dictionary? then use it
. CURSE SHAME.
I see no Jamaicans here
Lies
Wtf
Very very intriguing and interesting 🤔 documentary on the children of slaves ( so-called Jamaicans ) journeys. There were some order obviously, but they would have said because the white man had more intelligence and are capable to rule the slaves because we're incapable of ruling ourselves, but that's not the truth. Looking at our present situation it seems there is some validity to that statement 🤔 😕 😳 but that's not the case. This is where the conquistadors and elites fell off the horse because they justified this situation because it's quite obvious to see. The truth about that transformation both local foreign and in the diaspora the children children of slaves descendants only had was to fulfill prophecies and independence was the ending and beginning of initiation into those prophecies ( read: deuteronomy28chapter right through and Jeremiah 9v13-22 ). Now you know why these transformations and our present situation is what it is.
What the hell are you talking about?
Tazadèques , what are you talking about ? !
You are still a slave
The fake crowds noise
Colonize us again please.
F no
Yah eediot? Fi dem wa? Erase we culture,we language, way of life and force their ways on us? Yuh see weh China a do Africa? Ave sense.
No please!!
Colonize yu muma
@@ZhaynyPie are you from Jamaica?
@@space4166 I lived in Jamaica for 8 years then migrated to another country.
Why is this in good ol propaganda black and white this was in the 60s color TV was out in the late 30s and there's other videos out in color when this happened lmao this was American propaganda making US Black think this happened 200 years long ago
Same reason why you probably don't have an electric car. Even though electric cars have existed for decades.
Also, they say the date multiple times........ 😆 🤣
So, you're under the impression that black and white film existed 200 years ago? Smfh.
Some serious ignorance out there.
Fool
Why wasn't Kennedy"s assassination in colour when he was killed in 63, a year after Jamaica's independence? Why wasn't the moon landing in colour? Why wasn't the Ed Sullivan show in colour? Why wasn't the Beatles first concert in America in colour? Why didn't Britain have colour TV before 1967? Furthermore, this wasn't shot on video, it was recorded on film. Lastly, why are such a moron when you can google everything?
We also have to realise that bible prophecy is coming to pass. 2nd Timothy 3 v 1 says: But know this, in the last days critical times hard to deal with will be here; continue to read and you will see now why its getting worse. We are now in the period of time called "The Last Days"
Last Days Last Days 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Can you give me an exact date ffor the end of the world because I was going to book a holiday to Bennydorm in july should I cancel my plans ???
@@johnathandaviddunster38 ha ha ha ha haha,it piss me off when people quote this last days bullshit from the bible,when there is glory be unto the father and to the son and the holy spirit as it was in the beginning is now and Forevermore world without end amen.
Ah yes when things where good
Worst day ever
