I feel like when talking about "blackness" it's often about people outside of Africa. Africans are rarely included.
That is very true, but to add to that, I think that the black identity functions a little differently on the Motherland. In Africa I think there is a larger variety of identities, feuds, and even the fact that some oppressors of African people are African people from different tribes? (Correct me if im wrong) but in other countries, it doesn't matter what tribe you are from, because no matter what, Black people are usually considered the bottom of the caste systems, and as a counter to that, a mix of various tribes and identities unified and uplift one another as a more unified group because it's more of an Us vs. Them kind of relationship. But I do think that we should definitely include more Africans into the uplifting and celebrating during this month, and to learn at the feet of our brothers and sisters on the continent and exchange culture, it's just that I and many others assumed that because the relationship is different, y'all probably wouldn't vibe with it like we do, if that makes sense
Definitely. And the only time we're included is when we're represented by Nigeria or South Africa
So many Africans and even West Indian people correct us and tell black Americans not to refer to them as black ...
We need to do better about including black folks in Africa. I think the reason why in conversations regarding blackness often times have narratives of black people in non-black spaces is because in those spaces blackness itself is not a dominant culture and often requires those narratives to be seen. Essentially, when you are one of few you stand out more than when you are one of many. I do still agree though that west African voices need to be heard. I would think that blackness itself would function differently in countries where people rarely notice blackness as something unusual. Blackness itself was engineered as an antithesis of whiteness, so where there is little to no white people I wonder how Identity works with blackness.
It's a social construct for weak individuals spoiled by America, that's why. You are meeting the privileged.
When I was younger I wanted to travel but I was scared that I couldn't because there wouldn't be black people or black communities and I would stick out like a sore thumb. I would've NEVER thought there was black people in Asian countries. I thought going to European countries would mean encountering racism especially if I went outside of the touristy part (like London).
I think black history month is a time of expanding our black experiences as well as honoring our collective pasts. Granted, people could do this year round but I think we all just go about our days and don't really think or process it because we're just living our lives.
It's frustrating how history is white washed and then when it's black history month, it's only the same folks being talked about (MLK, Harriet Tubman, Malcolm X, etc) as if other people didn't rate a mention.
This is my first time doing it but for this black history month, I'm attempting to watch documentaries or stories (movies/shows) from black people and about black people for the duration of the month.
really? that’s mad! i live in the uk so i only learned about malcolm x and harriet tubman last year. we mostly focused on african and caribbean culture where i live, as most black people here are nigerian or jamaican (though it’s very diverse). it’s so annoying that there’s not more black history in schools
Depends on your teachers sometimes. I went to school in North London and I had a teacher of Zimbabwean descent so we learned a lot about Africa!
@Dennis Da Silva ssj4 I can't remember if she mentioned that, I was a 9 year old child.
@ricky brooks OK, what's your point?
@ricky brooks I didn't. I mentioned Zimbabwe! Are you OK?
Morgan Freeman said it best, "Black history is American history. It shouldn't be kept to one month." Outside of the US, go for it, have one month to teach Black History from aroind the world, but if the slavery of African people is a large part of your countries history, then it needs to be taught just as much as white history.
That large eye glassed, green flag loving white bit...I lost it. Lmao. You're beautifully gorgeous.
I definitely think that the women who talked about the Uk was centred on London ( where the majority of Black people in the Uk live) however, there are many other places where they live, and the cultures in those places are different. The curriculum has also greatly improved in recent years, as a quarter of my GCSE that I took a few years ago focused of African Americans and black history around the world
I wish society saw engaging Black History Month as engaging in Black futures.
So well put!
I'm gay.
@@BigChungus-no1ve good for you man
@@jacobsoto8055 Did you just assume my gender?
@@BigChungus-no1ve consider comedy. You’re hilarious
In my country we don't even know what black history month is-
That's likely because Black History month is an American celebration of Black/African-American contributions to *this* country. Not to say that others can't or shouldn't learn and celebrate but it is uniquely American and was created so that Black history wasn't erased or revised the way Native American history was. It still was/is, but because of Carter G. Woodson, it's less so.
@@m.coleman thank you for telling me!
While I'm glad that more people are getting/creating the opportunity to learn their people's history, The Black History month that's going on right now in February is specifically about African Americans and our history. I hope that we can stay focused on that and not try to turn it into a Pan African catchall for black people globally. All history is important but it's okay for us as AA's to focus on us. We are allowed a turn in the spotlight without always feeling obligated to share it.
Thank you
Facts 👍🏾
The punch line is because we have Father's Day lol lol.
Bwaaaahahahahahahaha
REEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Happy black history month!
I love Black
history month
BLM looted and graffitied my small market, which is African American owned btw. Surveillance showed kids laughing “Black Lives Matter” as they were running away with stolen items. More like Burn Loot Murder/Marxism if you ask me. Can’t believe I used to support that violent movement....they’ve moved so far away from what I thought they’d be. Wish there was another movement to follow!!!!!
Okay but Ms. Tiffany was giving me Kelly Rowland vibes 😍 Happy Black History Month everybody! 🤎🖤✊🏾
"We wuz slaves over here, we wuz slaves over there, we is still slave in some countries in Affukuh." The short version of black history around the world.
Black **American** History Month is in February. The UK has their Black History month in October.
Very good that we have black history month all around the world
Ms. Makayla keep saying America, Just an observation, There is no country call America, America is an continent, but to that effect, In AMERICA like un Panama, it is celebrate it in May, in many other countries in America like Mexico, Honduras, Belize, Costa Rica, Colombia, Venezuela, Peru, Etc, they have different Months
In the US it is Celebrate in February, but there is also Juneteenth, and in NY, they also have a Caribbean carnival in September, some thing like Hanifah mention.
But love every one InSite, information, and known.
If they could give more info, for people will love to travel and participate.
Thanks to every one
Happy Black History Month y'all!
I'm so fvcking gay.
Black History Month (AKA African American History Month) is actually for Black Americans... So if you are "celebrating" BHM in another country, then that means you are learning Black American History.
Most Afro Brazilians come from Central Africa. Countries like Angola, the Congo. Because of similarities in culture some afro Brazilians are believed to come from Nigeria. Black history month started in the United States because of the lack of information. February was chosen because Fredrick Douglass's birthday is in February. Later there was a push to make it a month. Carnival started in Rome but it was transformed in Trinidad into something different. While Brazil has carnival as well connecting the country to it's African roots they still keep up some of Romes traditional clothing with an Afro Brazilian spin on it. Many celebrate as a way to express their freedom from enslavement.
No it is not a part of American history black history is American history plain and simple
Wow Tiffany is beautiful. She looks like Kelly Rowland’s little sister❤️❤️
Unlike you.
@@BigChungus-no1veThat was uncalled for and rude.
@@sharptrooper2472 I know, I'm sorry.
@@sharptrooper2472 I'm joking.
@@sharptrooper2472 But the only real joke here is you.
the racists really in this comment section outing themselves...
Black history month does not exist here (Germany) or just a few people "celebrate" it. its more about African/Caribbeans celebrating their culture and learning about it here
Black history month was invented by black Americans scholars in the late 1880s!! It has nothing to do with the diaspora!! People copy off of black Americans!! Which is why the whole world feels a need to clamp on to black Americans culture/history Which is wired. You’re complaining about not having a afro-German month in Germany when the Afro-German population isn’t even in double digits!! And on top of that y’all are all immigrants & not native to Germany/Europe ! Us black Americans are native to USA!! Just like in Australia, or Brazil! We’ve been in USA before it was USA since 1619!!!
@@javionriley8739 no one is complaining about anything ? Please read AGAIN. I clearly said that we celebrate African /Caribbean culture here and not African American culture. No one said that y’all did not “invent” the month. Besides you do not know me. I’m not an “immigrant” I’m black /Afro german ! So please gtfo with all this nonsense
@@javionriley8739 There's no need to act like a bitch about it she said nothing wrong besides at least they know their culture and Traditional Languages such as the Caribbeans and South American black people tell me what have you Slave descents in the U.S taught in your traditions and culture
@@itsusi3259 you sound so dumb
@@Monaedeezy How When I'm completely correct on what I said
Needed this fam! THANK YOU!!
nice nice. There are also Russians of African descent, pretty cool man.
No such thing lol
I think it's because their dad's are African
POV: Your looking for a rascist in the comment section
Yep 🌚
NO , Black History Month is FUBU for Black Americans by Black Americans
Hi, may I use this for my class online? We are teaching about Black History and Literature
Celebrate my blackness.
watch... Black History Is American History Everyday...@
Everyone I know in brazil has at least 1 black family member we're a bunch of mix between a bunch of races I guess
Gah man. Wish I could hit the slaughter house with the same intensity, all while knowing otherwise, to any and all of it.
Why would someone dislike this video???
Why would someone like it?! Honestly
Rascists would dislike it
I love this so much
Teach!
Luke 21:24
[24]And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.
What does that mean?

Do you watch videos of Jim Nduruchi
all black people are United until we start talking about black africans
It's really shows me how dividend we are and how much the world hate black africans even our own people dont like to claim us its heart breaking
I'm Caribbean and I like Africans from the Motherland, y'all great
❤🖤💚 I'm sorry for all the rejection you meet, rest assured that plenty of Africans and Afrodescendant around the world like us work on decolonising our mindset and rooting ourselves in our Africanity . There's a lot of Panafricanists worlwide.
In the Caribbean, we have this person called Kalala Omotunde who helped us
@@bendemare5270 that's amazing 🙏
I see so much differences in the way people are thinking about race and identity now
People are growing and learning more
And it's giving the new generation a better experience in life
Their is hope in humanity 🙏
I'm curious, why didn't this channel give people from the African continent a chance to speak out? All of the people speaking out in this video are descendants of people who were kidnapped in slavery, but they do not represent the position of the original Africans.
You mean their descendants that sold and traded them into slavery to begin with?
@@Elrond_Hubbard1 No, I mean people living on the African continent who have never been taken as slaves in the past.
because many african people don't like being called black
Not speaking for all of Africa by any stretch, but many native Africans have stated that they do not feel the need for Black History Month (or celebrations specifically around being Black) because they are the majority in their respective countries and their countries' histories are taught in school and in the context of everyday life.
It's something they are, in a sense, able to take for granted as Black History for them is just *history* -- something that readily features and centers them daily, not something they have to dig deep for and/or reclaim (in spite of colonization).
In addition, many Africans tend to identify by ethnic group/tribe, country, and/or continent rather than race. Those of us in the diaspora who are primarily but not exclusively descendants of enslaved peoples in Europe and the Americas -- and whose tribal identifications are long lost to time -- tend to identify by race/ancestry over country, as many of the predominantly non-Black countries where we live never allow us to contextually take our race for granted or forget about it.
@@Elrond_Hubbard1 hahahaha amen brother.
Yessssssss this 🤎😍Black history is the world history
Well if blacks one month for black history that sucks cuase from history thy went through more than one month of slavery .
What a rip-off .
work still needs to be done with the absentee black father problem. even obama's daddy was an absentee father. his girlfriend's parents raised him.
Not MY history!

What are you doing to celebrate Black History Month?
For a oppressed people they sure do have everyone on their side!
Why u need a month?
The same reason you need a cage:
It's a place to be recognized for who we are.

@Shawna Sanchez because a white kid born today will still get blamed for slavery even though he had nothing to do with it, and black people still have the never to say they need compensation, that was the past we are friends now I'm sorry doe what happened but you can't keep using blm for your bullshit protests

Go to hell, troll.
In may fuck face. And we learn about Jewish history year round. Just say you hate black peoples and move
@@bigpynk we’re constantly learning from and about slavery year round, more than the holocaust. It’s literally taught in education more than the holocaust, which wasn’t just jews so interesting you bring it up. We have a day dedicated for abraham lincoln because he set slaves free. We have a day dedicated to Martin Luther King Junior. Why do you want me to say i hate black people, isn’t that racist?
Asian Heritage Month is in May. Hispanic Heritage Month is in October-September, Caribbean Heritage Month is in June. Black History Month is February.. do your research before you make comments
Jewish American History Month is also in May.
Does Tiffany looks like Kelly from Destiny Childs?
