I love how "finding out you're really a princess" in this case doesn't mean she found an easy way into riches and fame but instead she found a higher purpose.
This alone would be a fantastic reason for Disney to make the movie.

@@starrynight5207 that is honestly the scariest part. This would be an awesome Disney movie, she is a great example for many out there and I love that she didn’t just go and look then return to comfort, she stayed and activated herself to look for ways to help everyone there and fulfill her responsibilities as a princess towards her people. If it’s made into a movie then I really hope they don’t change anything and just leave it all intact. It doesn’t even need to be a Disney princess movie, if Disney decided to do a documentary with interviews to her and her family and people from her village in Africa, that would be awesome and tell the story of how she found out she was a princess and just like this video, show when she went there for the time, all the things she’s done there since she arrived and show the people and their daily life, their culture and everything there. At the end they could even add the website or social media accounts where people could look at pictures and donate money or other things to help with whatever things they need over there.

She didn’t find a prince or wealth. She found her true purpose in life. She has always been a princess
💯💯💯
👏👏👏🔥🔥🔥
"She didn’t find a prince or wealth." and that's why she went back to America to help black folks there and forget about her village lul
And what makes her different from any other woman?...
All girls dream of being a princess but what they really dream of is being a spoiled brat ..
You can tell she was raised right. She wasn't mad at her father, she didn't just leave her people. She accepted him and her new responsibilities with open arms. including her adopted family! That's amazing.
Why was she hesitant about finding her father but not her mother? That confused me
@@angellong7970 her mother died remember?
@@khadegazeidan644So? They both gave her up for one reason or another.
A testament to her adoptive parents! She has a beautiful heart and it's evident she was loved and learned to love! ❤️❤️
I love the fact that she said that the history of the African Americans shouldn't only be about slavery; that they were doctors, lawyers, mothers, who were MADE to be slaves.
@@fahey7335 so just because they were from primitive agricultural society, they didn't have 'doctors' who tended to the sick, or 'lawyers' who upheld their tribal laws?
Yes world for those of you who are trying to relate imagine someone coming to take you out of your house at gunpoint at any time sometimes the most worse times could be the worst thing imaginable and the next thing you know you are enslaved experiencing much worse than you had ever imagined imagine if you were taken out of your house right now leave everything behind everything nothing but the clothes on your back for example if you were a doctor or a scientist he would be nothing but a slave and you would have to watch people die you would get beat for trying to help them especially if they were your own people he could actually save somebody's life and they would kill you for having knowledge you could see someone how to be self-sufficient for the rest of their lives no matter who it was you would be killed whether you're successful or not you would be killed or have your hands chopped off sometimes both could one imagine how hard it is to do things without your hands that is the ultimate slap in the face
Yes that part is so important, I really love how she said this too!
@slayer 1
I’ve a hard time believing they chopped off peoples hands, they be worth nothing. Slaves that survived the slave passage was the strongest because the old,weak and sick would die and fed to sharks. Only the strongest survived
@@fahey7335 There were 3 groups of Africans who were sent to America: 1. AMANGWE OR MASILO = NOBLEMEN AND KINGS/RULERS ALSO CALLED NKOSI OR NEGUS OR SINKO OR MASEKO OR SOLE OR ZULU OR TOURE OR ITURI OR NTULI
2. AMAMBO OR IGBO OR EBO OR EMBU OR OVAMBO = NON-ROYAL ELITES
3. COMMONERS AND SLAVES.
Our ancestors were tired of constant wars over religion: Islam vs Christianity vs. Ancestral Worship. Shaka wars of the Zulus were fought o er similar ideals about how we wanted to live.
Maybe some distance and a change in perspective will change our future relations.
"You're considered a princess in this country."
"Me a princess? SHUT UP!!!"
"Okay."
*walks away*
I love the princess diaries 🥰
Okay, Mia 😂💕
LOL. HAHA! Princess Diaries for those that didn't get it.
I’m about to be 29 and that will forever be one of my favorite movies. I’m about to go watch it now. Thanks for the encouragement 😂
Why isn't anyone talking about how good of a story teller she is. She's even doing voices and singing.
Yesss! I was absolutely enthralled, I hope she keeps rising and rising. This is such a touching story
ikr literally one of the best
Yes!! She pulls you in with her words, movement and facial expression!
People are talking about that, what do you mean?
I was just about to type this same thing. Lol
This is the kind of Disney Princess movie we need. A princess who sees a REAL problem, a modern-day problem, that her people are facing, and actively works to solve it. Not just saying, "do something!" or just starting the seed at the movie's end, but actively making the change that her people need.
Princess diaries 😊
Let’s give credit to the foster family who’s been part of the reasons why she grew up with that kind of attitude❤️
*adoptive
Not her foster parents (temporary) they were her ADOPTIVE parents (for life)
they were adoptive parents, not foster parents. They raised her being their child, not just child they are responsible for temporarily.
That private investigator she hired, who is he/she? That’s some solid investigating skills.
ikr!! that investigator deserves much more credit
well on second thought...maybe the investigator will be in the disney movie😂😂
My dude!!!! That's what I was thinking!
No
just use 'they'
@@satyam8875 it’s correct when you use “who are they?” instead of “who is they” 🙄🙄
When she said we did not come slaves we were mothers, fathers, doctors, healers and then made slaves.... It should be yelled from every rooftop. That's such an important yet missing part of the history we are taught.
But Sarah didn't even descend from slaves in the first place.
@@ChaosPod stfu
@@ChaosPod But does that make what she said any less valid? She wasn't even talking about herself, she was talking about history in itself and how it's been shredded to nothing more than "they were slaves" but we aren't really taught anything else about our heritage, or where we came from- what traditions they used to do before it all was robbed from them. It should be yelled from the rooftops as in people need to start speaking up and the education systems should talk about the forgot history of African Americans just as much as they do any other culture because all we have now is the watered down bits and pieces of it.
At least that was my take away.
@@stardust.7507 Most African Americans don't realize they are already mixed. They find out on the dna test though. Should be embraced.
Those who were made slaves were made slaves by the kingdom they lose to. The europeans were there to purchase slave, and the local government were the ones that enslaved people.
This made me cry. I LOVE that she highlighted that African Americans are so much more than their slavery history, they were and are doctors, lawyers, healers, mothers, fathers teachers, etc... Her attitude and excitement for her newfound heritage are infectious. Her being put up for adoption to be raised and educated in the States until she was in a position to advocate for her birth father's country was divinely planned. She is the bridge and voice between the world and I hope the entire world learns of her and not by accident like I did on RUclips, but learn her name and help with the important work she is trying to do. What a beautiful soul to this unbelievable real-life fairy tale of an adopted girl turns princess. I'm so happy I found this story!
Right ❤
They weren't doctors or lawyers in Africa during the north american slave times. They were healers and shamans.
@@PrimetimeBJJFalse. They have a different name for doctors. Whites didn’t create what doctors. Surgery was being done in Africa & Egypt long before Europeans knew what surgery or doctors were.🤷 You can look it up yourself
Me too ❤
the issue is, slave history is all african americans care about because it justifies race wars, which makes big money for the rich white politicians, slavery may be gone, but black people like us are still slaves to the system, is race wars ended, 70% of the rich americans would go broke in a year
"I just showed up and it was enough" brought tears into my eyes.. A true love definition
Yeah. I liked that she didn't act like she always knew she was special but just like "oh wow, this is happening to me."
this is literally a real life disney story. no brainer deal there.
IKR? I would love to see a Disney movie of this.
The real question is, how long will it be til Disney gets they're greedy hands on it?
Remember art imitates life so this is real life period and not a plot to a Disney movie.
Facts
Nah coming to amerixa
She sounds like a main protagonist who’s about to become a hero.
A movie will be made someday
@Sadge Mon well for me yes she is.

I teared up when they parted the crowd for the women to sing the welcome song. I also already love her adoptive family for their continued love & support. Feels all around🥰

Hi Marlene, I also teared up. Put me in mind when our TRUE ETERNAL KING YAHUSHA comes and Redeems HIS Brethren back to the Land of Israel. Had to wipe my eyes.
Imagine this is every adopted child’s dream, not just to find their parents but generations of family
Erm almost, her mother passed away before she could find her.
Actually it plenty of none adopted kids looking for a parent now days
Adopted children need a lot of luck as well.... 1 out of 3. 33% of adopted children have lifelong MAJOR mental health problems. That require a lifetime to fix.
She found out she's a whole princess. Only thing I ever found out about my past is I come from a long line of lactose intolerant people.

Hahaha

Her people celebrated her just on account of her coming to them, and then she rolled her sleeves up and earned it a hundred times over. I hope Disney does this story justice.
Maybe someone will jinx me in a few years, but Disney probably won't do the best job. They'll probably turn it into a cheesy musical.
@@GarnetsWeb I would say Pixar could do a much better job in telling her story. We've had Wall-E, Ratatouille, Soul, etc. come out from that studio after all.
exactly.
.
@@Grace.f.06 but Pixar does it's own thing, right?
It only follows few rules from Disney, the same rules that Marvel follows.
I don't understand why Disney. I mean, I get she wants to reach kids, but her story isn't really all that interesting to young kids. Kids want a kid protagonist, which she isn't.
She is a real life Mia Thermopolis! This is so cool. Glad she was able to connect with her birth father’s family and that it worked out so well for her!
🤗
Touching. Stunning woman. She should be an actress
She’s out there saving a country, no time to be an actress

Disney already did it.
Let me get it straight, she is a princess and somehow she need to be adopted?
Did the mom just choose not tell the father she is pregnant?
I know right !?!
@@bigtaz504 Disney didn't do it but they said she's doing a movie with them
@@peteryang8991 No, she's *like* a princess from where her dad lives, it's not as if she is a princess of some big country, it's more of a small village
Disney, you better follow through on this. This is quite possibly the most important princess fairytale you all will ever be able to tell. What an incredible story. Truly I cannot express what this means. I was adopted from vietnam during the time of a change in power. I always fantasized about then possibility of being royal and this story is exactly that. What an opportunity to show a community we’ve never seen before. This was probably my favorite story on this channel to date
What an awesome story. She is a fabulous storyteller. The part about the dress and her welcome was especially touching. I’m glad that she could look outside of herself and recognize the needs of those suffering around her.
Now THAT’S a Disney movie that I would pay Premier Access for.
The Mulan shade 😭
Underrated lol
I know right? An amazing story.
Too bad Disney really got that Song Of The South mentality. It would be sweet tho
Amazing story and a true princess staying and helping her people. Heart of gold.
Sarah embodies everything a princess should be. She’s responsible, compassionate, and intelligent... I can’t wait to see her story in a Disney movie
And on top of it all, she's also gorgeous. Really has the looks of a princess.
Disney already done it years ago. Princess Diaries starring Anne Hathaway.
@@mayaparamita2254 yeah a white person
How do you know all that from watching a short video? I'm thinking you must know her personally.
@@peightonmac1553 what's wrong with a white person being a princess?

What an awesome family reunion. What a leadership personality. This story really moves to tears.

Thank the parents
Thank her adoptive parents
How is she a princess
@@bigfootisreal11 she has chieftain blood flowing on her veins. Her father might not be the chief but she's still part of the bloodline and has the right to rule them
@Anonymous Empire Welp, it's the lottery of birth. We don't get to choose into what circumstance we're born into.
They need to make a Disney movie about her story, and she NEEDS to be its narrator. She is such a great storyteller.
Really want to see it in a movie
@@magdeeafutu582 Eddie Murphy coming to America the sequel is litrally the exact same concept as this put into a Hollywood film it's a good film the only difference is it's a prince instead of a princess
They better not mess this story up though
Eh not Disney I love them but they’ve stolen enough stories and made them their own
Disney doesn't need to do this cause they are going to white wash this African story.
She's a beauty, richly endowed with newly found roots exciting personality, grace and well founded and established culture, down to earth at that!
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
I am so happy for her! She has a beautiful smile and a beautiful attitude! She didn't just "pause" but went right in there and inspired others to help as well. What a wonderful welcome you received. Beautiful inspiring story.
I met her at a BLM protest last summer. She was really nice! I'll be honest I was a bit nervous, but she was nice and helped me out. When we did a speech in front of town hall, that's when I found out I met a princess.

Love it!
It is, but many bilinguals do that.
Its like asking what language we dream in: it depends.
You will think or dream in the language that the situation you are dealing with happened.
When you speak its much the same.
Specially as you switch from one into the other language.
"We didn't come here as slaves. We we're mothers, fathers, doctors lawyers etc. We were MADE SLAVES!" So true I love that.
Nani Africa had lawyers back then well I can expect it from Ethiopia
false
She must have meant witch doctors.
There weren’t doctors in Africa that long ago. There barely is today
Yes
Because history is written by the conquers so of course white people have downplayed and erased the greatness of African civilizations, that is why you know nothing of them. Why do you think for years the media tried to portray ancient Egyptians as white, because they failed to erase that African civilization so they had to lie and say they were white to keep their false image of superiority.
this video bought tears, we all have a purpose in life when we see it from a higher perspective, I just love Sarahs story. Thank You
What an amazing story. She is an outstanding storyteller. And how lucky she is to both have a loving adoptive and biological family.
She had a literal “Princess Diaries” moment and I am here for it
those books were my childhood
I LOVE THEM
That is just what I was thinking when I read the title😅
The premise is slightly different, as Mia Thermopolis lives with her birth mother in the movie
Exactly 🖤..
Still crying this is a great story
Imagine her going to a high school reunion and being like “It’s PRINCESS now”
😂
😭🤚
😂😂😂😂 best comment
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Especially to all the mean girls who taunted her for her skin or hair growing up.
Princess from african country didn't matter much honestly
What a beautiful story. This is like something out of a novel, but it's real. It's great to see her being happily welcomed from both sides of her parents family. She's a real Princess. Fantastic.
I'd like to also learn the story of how Sarah's parents met and had a child. Beautiful soul, she is.

@Palepride Worldwide She didn't chose to be raised by them, it wasn't her fault
@@mochalatte1778 Pretty sure from the video she wasn't raised by anyone in Africa, she was raised in America. Which makes Palepride Worldwide's illogical comment even more dumb. How would having genes from a particular part of the world make you responsible for reparations?

@@mochalatte1778 Looking at their name, and the nonsense they're writing in youtube comments, they're likely a race obsessed psycho and not able to think rationally about basic historical cause and effect.

It's not hard to take on a role of being a princess. But for her to take on the hardships is a different story.
Wow. Imagine the feeling of having not one, not two, not three, but FOUR families to care for you and support you-her adoptive family, her biological mother's family, her royal African family, and, in a sense, the people of her tribe who now accept her as a princess. Woman's one of the luckiest people in the world.
This woman is seriously filled with magic. Did anyone else notice? lol She is stunning in a way that is difficult to put into words. What a story!
"We weren't slaves from the beginning. We were doctors, lawyers, healers etc and were MADE slaves." It changes the whole perspective.
Although this is true, the sad fact is that some of us or the majority of African Americans will truly never know where we come from. She was born from an man who was born and raised in Africa, so of course, she will be able to trace back her roots while most of African Americans cannot.
@@summertimejay3157 you don't need to track your roots. If you know u're African American it's all you need to learn the history and culture of it and not just focus on their landing in America.

Just imagine how many people who want this type of connection to their ancestry but cannot have it.
Yes, everyone in western countries like the US are so mix it's hard to piece together where you ancestors came from.
There are no words for being robbed of that basic humanity
most people who get email from nigerian princess end up getting scammed, it was real in her case.
But you can get a good connection beyond the Princess or royalty.
Back to one’s culture. Focusing on the positives. Not getting dragged down by the slavery or getto/gangs, or whatever.
That’s what she is talking about. Like fictional but still aspirational Wakanda. Remembering your higher potential for good.
DNA testing and genealogical research may help in discovering lost ancestral history, and may provide you with an opportunity to connect with unknown, and distant relatives.
Big respect to her foster parents....who were with her always
WOW! Learning her roots Found out she's A Pricess at the age of 28!
Congratulations!

@Lil PUMP While you are correct about the etymology of the word slave, Slavs were definitely not "the first" slaves. Slavery has been around since before written history. And the existence of slavery is well attested in ancient history.
As an African man who lives here I am suspect of Any movie that has a black characters because I know somewhere down the line they are going to tie it to slavery.
@Lil PUMP I know the etymology of the word slave. I was just pointing out that Slavs were far from "the first" slaves.
Most of Africa was enslaved and sold as slaves but not Ethiopia. Ethiopians fought Against Colonization. They fought Europeans hard and won every battle.
And they do have a particular look so distinct and perfect.
I love the Ethiopian female features they're so distinguished and pretty .
An absolutely amazing person she is. What has happened to her did not break her like for many others but made her stronger and wise. That is the destiny
From one adoptee to another, what a beautiful story of your foundations and history. I was able to find my birth parents by chance and learn a very different story than what I had been told. It did a reset to my entire understanding of myself. Rejection is always a possibility and I am always glad when an adoptee is not pushed away. I was not rejected at all, but it still feels surreal to communicate with the people that gave me life and my new found siblings. Thank you so much for sharing your story and for taking those brave steps to learn about your extended family.
When the movie “The princess diaries” comes to life.
i was hoping to see someone comment this
I WAS LOOKING FOR SUCH COMMENTS, THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT TOO😭👏👏
LMAO
Don't know if I'm happy or jeolous 😂❤️
You're the comment that i searching for
It would've been cool to know about her parents relationship and how she ended up being adopted. What a story.
I’m sure there’s a lot of racism rooted in it and that’s why they’re leaving it out.
@@denieraadams4924 and in the end there was nothing to worry about and she was accepted with open arms! Beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
@@denieraadams4924 that's what happened with me and my biological parents. My father was from Hong Kong and came to California for college back in the 90s. He met my mom there and I ended up being an accident. Life was tough for them as an interracial couple (Asian dude and white woman) back then with the discrimination they faced and it didn't help that they were bringing a mixed baby into the world. My father tried proposing and bringing my mom back to Hong Kong with him when he was about to graduate but my mom wasn't ready to completely change her whole life so she turned him down/they broke up. Eventually having a 1 year old mixed child became too much for my mom since her parents disowned her for it and her new boyfriend didn't want to raise an Asian baby so I was given up for adoption. I love my adopted parents and even ended up looking white as I got older (people are very surprised when they find out I'm half Asian), but I always wanted to find my biological parents as well. I found my biological almost 10 months ago and found out the circumstances surrounding my birth and adoption. I still have no luck trying to find my biological father though.
@Dee K
Well she said she was born in the 70's. And her father got a white woman pregnant in West Virginia ( a state that used to have slaves) . I'd just assume people were way less accepting of it and it probably brought a lot of problems to their life. So they probably couldn't keep her and sent her to an adoption home as a result.
I am guessing she was an “accident”, not really adopted. Just a backstory to stop people asking so much while growing up.
She is the main character in every YA princess books ever
Basically. It’s just missing magic and dragons
She is such a beautiful soul! Amazing use of the life she's been given on this earth. I am going to order her book
As the Most High would have it, her name "Sarah" in Hebrew means "princess". This is not a coincidence. Congratulations!
I thought t se thing. I wonder if it’s her name from her bio family or if her bonus family named her. 💕🐝
Beautiful comment, iv had to look for one, like what a brilliant young lady. I can feel her pride, its lovely
@@amazinggrace5692 seems it's her second name from adoption. So happy coincidence.
It’s literally one of the most common, basic names around. It is a coincidence.
@@kissit012 An awesome coincidence
Funny how the name Sarah actually means Princess. Is like if the adoptive parents knew all along.
Yup Sarah means Princess
Means also "The lady"
It did say that she was almost 1 when adopted, and she was from WV, so her name might have already been Sarah
In Arabic it means joyful/happy
Lol what? Sarah is originally an arab name which means joyful or happy
This is my favorite video of the day!!! What a wonderful and beautiful story...this young woman has lived both of her identities and is in complete harmony with both...this would absolutely make an incredible movie...I know that I would watch it😊
This is so amazing! She’s so smart, kind and beautiful
Okay I lost it when she was given the green African dress, and the woman in the village greet her in the same dress singing 😭.
Right? I can only imagine how amazing that experience must have been. I wish I was there!
It can't get more African than that 😂😂
The floodgates really opened with the singing, that was too beautiful
@Kwame Strong same question
That’s how we do in West
Africa. My parents are first generation immigrants to
America and cheiftains. In the 60s and 70s chieftains sent their kids to universities across the world to help their countries before the era of blood diamonds and oil near piracy. My parents tribe also welcomes in a similar way with clothing. It looks each age group to each other. At any celebration my ‘age
group’ will wear the same fabric.
"Get out of my own way and put myself in his shoes"
Lots of kids don't put themselves in their parent's shoes.
I was trying to understand that part, did she automatically blame her father.
@@bignawful I think she resented her father at first. In her pov, she probably thought of how her mother died alone and how her father gave her up to adoption. At least that's what I'm assuming. but her pov changed after she put herself in her father's shoe
parents shouldn’t make there kids stand in there shoe
@@victorbrinch1043 You're way off.
@@abdallasa7077 wdym?
I feel like this is a Disney scenario IRL,
A woman who did not know she has royal blood becomes a princess
Princess Diaries?
Black people ain't seen that movie 😂
This is a great piece! I love her enthusiasm and passion for the people of Sierra Leone
I was raised in West Africa and till this day I can not put into words what life was there, but to say; exquisite. In America no one asks about my upbringing in west Africa, they ask if I saw elephants.
So cool!
Sadly a lot of Americans are led to believe everyone in Africa is poor and lives on dirt floors. The only connections they make to Africa is the wildlife there :(
But did you see elephants?
did you see elephants?
Have yall seen my elephant down there
She’s a true princess. “This is my family” she wasn’t only talking about her Biological father or family, she was talking about the village, the people, they are her family. If all the presidents and all the queens, kings and princesses stop the greediness and learned from this beautiful woman the world would’ve been a beautiful and better place.
Well she didn’t grow up there, and she is accustomed to western civilization, not “third world”, princess or not, it’s just a title. She didn’t have to set up a non profit, or meet her dad or embrace and help her people, she chose to, and because of that, she is in many people’s eyes a princess. Ppl always find something positive to make negative, it’s unnecessary and unneeded, it doesn’t put food in anyone’s mouth and actually makes them look Jealous.
@Hugh Janus69 she did more than you would’ve done. I’m sure of that. She went from a civilized country and stayed some time helping a family that gave her for adoption and a village she didn’t own anything to, yet she helped, she cared, if she went back to her country after that then good for her, she still has a life and a different life style but she’s still a princess and a beautiful human.
@Hugh Janus69 no one expected her to stay. She’s a princess, a princess that her parents gave for adoption and she still found her dad and still helped and cared for people she don’t know, that’s beautiful and a beautiful story, regardless of how “little” she did, she did more than was expected . I don’t think I would be able to leave my comfort for a few months to go to a third world country where I know no one. So yeah, she did a lot! SHES A PRINCESS ✨❤️
@@kelovezamorcosmetics6730 They're not her people. She grew up in United States. She knows absolutely nothing about Sierra Leone. It's hilarious how mixed people embrace only 1 side of their heritage and ignore the other.
@Hugh Janus69 90% or more of many non profits go to the people running the non profit organizations.
She's a selfish self centred self indulgent narcissistic fraud.
Thank u for sharing ur amazing magical memories to make.and the change yet to come with peace beautiful and giving hearts .
This is amazing. "i couldn't go home and say, I hope you work this out"...
