  • Siddi people rely heavily on farming and growing their own produce, a skill passed from their African enslaved ancestors. What I learnt after spending a day with African Indian farmers will surprise you.

      Most of their farming equipment is rented or they get a loan from the bank, however, the loan is secured against their farm, which is a dangerous business endeavour because they could lose their farm if they default on loan payments.

      It is unfortunate that most Siddis are very poor but united. They rely heavily on farming and growing their own produce, a skill passed from their African enslaved ancestors. Imagine how painful it continues to be for the Siddi people who wants to visit Africa just to see where their ancestors were stolen from and hey can't do that, a very sad reality. I plan to start a PayPal campaign to raise money for some of them to visit Africa, and any donations to this channel's PayPal account should have a note as follows 'Siddi Assistance to Africa'.

    I appreciate your videos. I see many from Africa want to connect with the Siddis. Please respect them and not try to belittle them. I see many vloggers trying to make a spectacle of them. I respect them, and would the Indian government under Narendra Modi not treat them as a scheduled caste. Unfortunately, no one in Africa can bat for them. So sad. I cry for them.

    • @RJinspire
      @RJinspire  Месяц назад +1

      We should never belittle or treat them less that how we should be treated. I made the Siddi series to raise awareness and to share their lives and frustration with the world. In all my videos you hear the Siddis stories from their own mouth which is important

      The Siddis are our African Indian brothers whose Ancestors were stolen from Eastern Africa and brought to Asia. The Arabs were the first to bring Eastern Africans to Asia (many to India and Pakistan) as merchants, carpenters, soldiers etc., however, a few years after African trading and working hand in hand with the Arabs; the Arabs decided to capture Eastern Africans for cheap labour and that was the birth of African enslavement. The Portuguese and later the British joined the slave trade years after the Arabs; this information is narrated in this video ❤️

      Well said friend. The Siddis work very hard and the farming skill passed from their ancestors keeps them from starving to death, they grow their own produce in their own land. Thanks for liking the video, please share, bring friends and help the channel reach 10,000 subscribers!
