I am an American and engaged to a wonderful Amizigh in Algeria. I have visited and met his family & friends, and I am honored to know & love these gracious People with big hearts.Vive les Amazigh!♓
I am Amazigh from USA by my bloodline I am from North Africa. I think maybe Morroco this I am not sure on but my whole life I have felt the need to go there. Then sister does DNA test and we see we have Berber Bloodline. I believe it is called the Amazigh. This makes me very proud!!!
DNA Tests of north africain ppl shows the majority are Berbers regardless if they speak Amazigh or Arabic language so there is just 1 major ethnicity Amazigh !
My family thought that we are arabs, i did the dna test recently, and i am Amazigh. By the way i'm Moroccan from the North (Oujda) i don't speak Tamazight, just some notions.
Itri Dz Egyptians like the old Egyptians still be the one and the Same people. They are not death. Tripolitanians and Carthagians still living in north africa, too. They are not death. They all speaking diffrent arabic dialects and learn classic arabic later because of religion. Amazigh are from North Africa - West Sahara, also from West Sahara which is divided in diffrent states, but Amazigh are not North Africans, they are just divided because of France, USA and USA junior = Israel.
@fayssal benhebba true, WE are all IMAZIGHEN. I'm kabyle , and i'm so glad you opened your eyes about it. Notre peuple est divisé a cause de cette crise identitaire. Ça me rend triste que beaucoup vivent dans le déni d'être AMAZIGH
Love to all Amazigh people from Ethiopia. Listening to some of your music and learning about your traditions has convinced me that you are definitely not Arab which is a huge misconception and I am glad that I know who the Amazigh people of north Africa are. We are Africans and we have a beautiful continent that is very diverse!
@@gh4326 yeah they think arabic and hebrew are the only semitic languages while in fact the ancestor of amharic is way older than arabic and it still in use mainly in churches
True . They are close Horn african people. Their lands is occupied by Arab expansionists. We african especially Ethiopians and Eritreans, and Somalians stand with our Amazighn brothers and sisters.
@@user-pg1sj9bh4x i mean we (persians,medians and amazigh people) have a rich and powerful culture which arabs couldn't change it. We still speak our languages
@@user-pg1sj9bh4x no!. In my opinion you arabs have a rich culture and a sweet language as well. I mean the nations who could protect their languages for a long time, have rich culture.

Morocco Vlogs I have visited Algeria and there are more people in Algeria who who claims their Amazigh identity than Moroccans. I have asked many moroccans who lives in UAE if they are amazigh/berber, they look at me as if the question is disgusting and say they are arabs. 🤦🏻♀️
Morocco Vlogs yes but the majority make up of the genes of Moroccans is Amazigh but your King and the politicians made everyone believe you are Arabs. Even the Moroccan jews are Amazighs.
My family has been arabized. I was grown up told I was Arab and my parents and grandparents believed it. This is not the case. A DNA test found out I am a mere 15% arab and an overwhelming 73% North African (Amazigh). I am from Tunisia and I plan to go to where I believe my berber tribe would have been and learn the language and culture, I will pass this down to my children and revive my culture. No more arabization! We need to start a movement of de-arabizing Our countries and making arab and amazigh cultures equal and in fact making amazigh culture a registered traditional and native culture under our governments with protection.
adam you should have other people in your family do a DNA test. Percentages can vary from parent to child, sibling to sibling, also there are things that other people in your family can inherent DNA wise that you did not receive. You have ancestors both Amazigh and Arab. ALL of it makes you!!!
@@fe6523 No DNA test is accurate. But I do know that all North Africans are of Amazigh origin, some of them were arabized and started speaking arabic and forgot their languages and some remained with their languages. Only 9% of me is Arab sorry :) and even then other estimated tell me its 0% like my heritage DNA. DNA tests are not trustworthy. By the way are you North African? Because if you are not then shut up, you shouldn't be telling someone who they are or arnt. I am first Amazigh before anything else.
@@adamdfc9809 it was accurate for me adam,my biological mother is from Morocco, we have both Arab, north african, Spanish, jewish, sub saharan African as well a splash of Italian. My mother made it very clear we came from Arabia but migrated into north africa a long, long time ago. The DNA results exposed i was adopted which was true which had me so surprised and Faber gas tic. I think for every north African family what you have could me just north African or it could be like my family a multi racial mix due to history and all the different racial groups who were around due to the arab invasion.
@@fe6523 No, 90% of North Africans would have a majority of their genes from North Africa. Remember some of these DNA tests can't differentiate Amazigh DNA from European/African and especially Arab DNA. They are grouped Differently. What tests did you take and what are your results. By the way, i was told my whole life i was arab until I did the test, My country is very arabized, Tunisia and we forgot our berber languages and roots. Also my family comes from the city, and I'm still majority berber, I recommend either the Ancestry Test 2020 Update version or the My Heritage, 23andme is confusing as they group North African and Arab together (By the way arab is not a race or ethnicity it's a culture). All North Africans have predominantly North African DNA with some admixture due to conquests and invasion like when the muslims were expelled from Southern Italy and Iberia they settled in North Africa with their mixed children and our Arab blood comes from the men who came to North Africa and married with the local berber women and that is how their children forgot the berber language, they took their fathers language.

As Tunisian, we never learned about Berber history so deep. It was all about Carthage, punics, bezentin, arabs who conquered north africa and the recent history (france and turkey). When I grew up and knew about my amazeigh ethnic roots, I was surprised. We've been brainwashed by the arab deminance. Now, I want to say to people who's gonna read my comment that I'm a proud Tunisian Amazeigh ❤🙂🇹🇳
the arabs really did us evil with their culture, racism and their religion. They destroyed the wealth, peace and culture in the world. I do hope, that the arabs will be bought back to the arabian peninsuela. This will bring peach for europe, asia, africa, etc.
As Amazigh from tunisia i have to recognize that the only people our people benefited from are the muslims (arabs and ottomans) they themselves gave up certain of their evil customs for Islam, Islam is more important, the golden age of amazigh people was with islam we ruled over spain and part of France for centuries, but when christianism and peganism was brought to us we were at the darkest of time. The Arabs didn't conquer the land but established themselves peacefully, there have been some fights that we initiated, but it was only involving fighting men on a battlefield following rules and regulations they were very mercyful and didn't transgress even when we wanted to transgress them, they didn't enslave us like the christians and pegans did. Islam isn't the religion of arabs but of all mankind. And Allah made us tribes and nations so that we may get to know each others and not to seek supremacy over each other like the bible argue. This documentary isn't reliable it's over exagerating a lot, the first scene was reflecting not slavery under "the arabs" because there were none but under the christians, let's not forget that many people from morocco because they were too dark skinned were taken in america as literally slaves by the christians. There are only a few portion of amazigh without any cause or justification who hate arabs for some weird reason, i just think they are online trolls, and most of these online trolls are christians trying to add oil to the (non existent) fire. There is no hatred in islam we are all brothers. Without Al Islam we are nothing, stop seeking supremacy over each other preach Al Islam Al deen al Hak. I don't care even if i'm arab or amazigh i'm muslim all praise to the most high stop that nonsense nationalism that your enslavers the europeans has brought to you to literally kill you rape you colonize you and enslave you like the whole of Africa. Don't believe the lies of these "white supremacist" colonizers. We are amazigh arabs africans we don't care, we are united under one truth, one cause, one ultimatum Al islam. May Allah the Almighty give us success and prosperity with AL islam.
Yes, interesting to note they are not amazigh but either way the vast majority of their DNA is native to north Africa...with only trace differences compared to the rest of north Africa. Egyptians for the most part dont make a big deal out of their trace DNA, and the vast majority have no idea what it is...nor do they care...they are north African, and part of the African continent. copts, nubian and east Africans are all African are they not?

@@rohacha9iin40 LOL Remeber what the prophet peace been upon him taught us: No Arab over non Arabs and no non Arrabs over Arabs, besides its not shame if I spoke in Arabic, its the language of the holy Quran.

@Johnny Bravo True. We don't speak up enough. We do less then we should. I think the problem is more serious with pan Arabist tho. Because there are governments behind that and it has already affected North Africans. With afrocentrists I don't see that.
I am Amazigh, but my father left Algeria when he was pretty young, and because of a lot of different things he doesn’t speak of his childhood much. I would like to learn more about my people, the culture, and I would like to try to learn a bit of the language. Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

As a Kurd, I’m much interested in Amazigh history and people since I moved to France. I met wonderful people from Algeria and Morocco, some who identify as Amazigh but most of them say they’re Arabs which I respect but it makes me sad a little as most of Algerians and Moroccans who consider themselves Arabs are actually Amaizgh decedent but got Arabised. Thanks for the Video though ;)
You don’t know our history so there’s little for you to be sad about, arabisation occurred over centuries and as a result of policies of powerful amazigh rulers, Arab conquests had a very minimal effect and was only 30 years
@@vaktus3380 you can’t speak for other people, you identify as Arab??? Alright good for you then keep it to yourself! Don’t need to get mad at me and my opinion and experience
@@vaktus3380 As a Moroccan Amazigh, i see no need in Arabization. Arabs ain't even Muslim. Amazigh people are proud of themselves. Why be a fake Arab? 😂 What a joke.
@@higherup9862 What you see as a need is irrelevant. Large scale arabisation occured under the almohads and marinids who were poweful Amazigh rulers, almohads even enslaved many Arabs. I understand why many wont like this reality, but you have to come to terms with the decisions your ancestors made. There is no 'Fake' Arab, there is many ways one can become Arab, hence we have them black in Sudan, white in Syria etc. Arab is an ethnicity which isnt bound by genetics
@@vaktus3380 My ancestors? To this day I'm Amazigh, we speak Tamazight, we don't speak that fake Arabic bro. How that fake Arabic came into being is actually simple, Amazigh people used to live in many tribes and developed their own accents, dialects until they pretty much formed their own separate languages. By trade and religion, the commonality was religion (Islam) so pretty much the majority of the people spoke and understood Arabic. As it always goes, various Tamazight words were used by traders, then came the French owners of these Moroccan "Arabs" voila current day Darija. Language constantly evolves. Then came some rectal penetrator who claimed to be a descendant of Muhammad (pbuh), now all of these fake Arabs are claim to be descendants of Muhammad (pbuh).. 😂 We Amazigh are not Arabs, we are the "free people" as in freed by Moses. We are descendants of Abraham through Jacob. We are Israelites and that's something to be proud of. Afterall the people who wanted to kill Muhammad (pbuh) and his followers were Arabs (real Arabs). I have seen how these fake rainbow Arab governments treat Amazigh people. Forced Arabization, even restrictions on using Amazigh names etc.. Worthless evil wannabe Arabs, slaves to the West. If you are not a descendant of Ismael, you are not an Arab, keep it simple. The fact that you can claim to be a unicorn nowadays doesn't make it so. Have a happy new year.
Massinissa le berbère ⵎⴰⵙⵏⵙⴻⵏ thats amazing! much love from the United States! the amazigh men and women are some of the most beautiful people on the planet
There is a diffrence between the Amazighs and other minorities in the world. Today most of the people of the maghreb are arabized amazighs which them selves don't recognize their identity and don't know about their ancestors due to the gouvernements actions which were done to get the arab states help in order to get the independance from the french colonisation. The video mentiond 30 million amazighs, i say it's wrong and it's more likely to say 30 million speakers of the tamazight language but the amazigh population in more than 80 million in the maghreb which represents thr whole population, and the reason why only the kabylie region and the Aures regions are the majority speakers of tamazight is because they lived in mountains (Djurdjura and The Aures mountains) and they kept the herritage going, The Amazigh culture in now all across the maghreb region whether the lingua franca which is the dialects of the countries, well the grammar is arabic but most of the vocabulary is tamazight which tells us that the people still have the roots of its old culture, and in the food for example the Couscous plate and all the comunities does it and there are more evidences that proove the unity of the people of the maghreb which is AMAZIGH PEOPLE !
Algerian goverment started arabization singe 1962 not go erase amazigh langage but to erase thé french langage .. We've been speaking arabic for centuries and we know our family trees up to 14th century and centuries before so speak of ur self and dont call others "Arabised" and goverment blablabla.. Arabs exist in north africa and amazigh exist too
@@zenitchu4780 jai pas l'impression que ton gouvernement a effacer le français mais plutôt l'amazighs car le français est la langue principale en Afrique du nord.
I disagree with your statement that the kabyles and the aures are the majority amazigh speaking communities. Apparently you haven't travelled much. I am from souss region in Morocco and there millions of us extending from as far south as guelmime all the way up north to marakech and from the atlantic to the algerian borders. Every town amd village in that whole region speaks tachlheit. Also, for economic reasons, every major city, especially casablanca have major Amazigh populations. On top of that, we have the Amazigh if the atlas mountains and Rif region. I was born in a small little village near taroudant but i spent most of my youth in Casablanca. Back then in the 1970's and 80's, I never felt looked down upon because of my heritage. Deep down I always felt that we are/were the majority anywhere in Morocco especially in Casablanca. Even if everybody speaks arabic or french I felt that was more of a necessity to survive than a dictate to change who we are and our history. Anyway, amazigh people have been around for thousands of years and will be around for thousands more.
AZUL its not only mountain regions. let's not forget the honorable desert people of Sahara who are also speakers and keepers of the tamazight language and heritage; thanks to isolation
Amazing! I've known plenty of Moroccans, a few Algerians but I've never heard of this Indigenous group before. You learn something new every day. Indigenous inhabitants always fascinate me. Especially there history.

I was looking at this other vid before this one and it was contending some Scandinavians share genes with some amazigh? If I understood maybe twice europe goes down there? So it's a pattern 🤔
AMAZIGH are NOT gypsies ! Wtf Some just have been pushed to be like settlers in their own territory when Arabs came. Please know your history. My amazigh family has a village, no such thing as gypsies.
The map that you showed is inaccurate bcz it only shows those who can speak Berber / the majority of North Africans except for Egyptians are of a Berber ancestry but they lost their mother tongue because of oppression and political systems that forced Arabic on them.
North Africans must be proud of their special history ( Tunisians, Algerians, Moroccans,Libyans ) ! North Africans must continue to value their Amazing History before the Settlement of the Arabs and Turkish Peoples in their lands!
We (who speak the amazigh language) we are still proud of our history, culture and language. The problem is the Arabized amazighs, they think that they came from the deserts of Yemen and Saudi Arabia.
Hello I'm Arab from Egypt, nice to meet you. I have a question if I may. How can I see a difference between a Arab like me or a Berbers, I see Berbers and Arab with all difference skin tone or eyes but still confusing, is it the same with you ?

@@abdullahiissa6674 1-The history of Ethiopia is very rich (the kingdom of Aksum and the kingdom of Kush) 2- They corresponded to Arabization. 3-They also opposed latinization. 4-Above all, Ethiopians always deserve respect because they are the first free people in Africa to defeat the white man. I think these are enough
@@gokalptozlu9201 The name "Ethiopia" is a name the Europeans gave them. It's a fake name! The locals never ever called themselves "Ethiopian" until recently. There are many ethnic groups in Ethiopia and most of these groups hate each other. These ethnic groups always clash and fight each other. Why do they clash and fight each other? Because these ethnic groups have their own language and cultural heritage. Nobody sees themselves as Ethiopian! Nothing can be more shameful and humiliating than calling yourself something the white man gave you. The lingua franca of Ethiopia is Amharic, but many ethnic groups refuse to speak it because they have this mentality that it's not "our" language. Loyalty to your ethnic group comes first. At the moment, Ethiopia is a ticking time bomb. It reminds me of the former Yugoslavia, where civil war eventually led to the formation of many nation states. The current prime minister is trying his best to create unity, but I don't think it will work. The population of modern day Ethiopia is 100 million people and only 6 per cent of those people are the descendants of the Kingdom of Aksum. These people are concentrated in the north of the country in what is known as the Tigray region. When Western scholars talk about ancient Ethiopia. What they are really talking about is the history of the Tigrayan people. These Tigrayan people are scavengers and vultures historically and they are scavengers and vultures today. They invited many Europeans historically to fight their African neighbours. Another thing, historical Ethiopia was known for being Christian, but today's Ethiopia is a majority Muslim country. All the regions of Ethiopia are majority Muslim except for the Amharic and Tigray regions. Even the Amharic and Tigray regions have minority Muslim populations. If you go to the capital Addis Ababa, you would think it is a Muslim city because there are many Mosques and many women wearing hijab in the streets.

Amazighs are not a minority, the majority that speak Arabic are also Amazighs, same way people from Senegal are not Frensh just because they speak Frensh. Also, the "Arabic" dialects we speak in north Africa are so different from Arabic that even people from Egypt or Syria wouldn't understand them, our dialects should be considered their own languages, because they are as different from Arabic as English is from Frensh/Latin.

I recently found out that I am a paternal descendant of an E-M81 (E1b1b). Researching this subclade concludes that my Adam probably came from Morocco or Algeria, or from some nearby region, and probably invaded the Iberian peninsula generating descendants there and centuries later descendants of this one came to Brazil during the Iberian colonial period in the Americas. So I'm a direct lineal descendant of a Amazigh.

It is gratifying that this little clip and others are a gateway to the world about the Amazigh People. Your struggles have reached the ears of the world. You are your own liberators so continue with the fight. Forgive me if I say you have been quiet for too long. You have to fight occupation, for linguistic freedom, for political liberation, equality, representation within the political structures and spiritual freedom. No matter how oppressive the occupation is your freedom is on the horizon of time. Oppressors always do not expect the oppressed to desire and recognise; freedom, self-determination and the built in power of aspirations. You need to show them you have these virtues.

Morocco Vlogs I have visited Algeria and there are more people in Algeria who who claims their Amazigh identity than Moroccans. I have asked many moroccans who lives in UAE if they are amazigh/berber, they look at me as if the question is disgusting and say they are arabs. 🤦🏻♀️
Morocco is like philippes own many Ethnic people ..here berber and arabs and Africans and Jews and Spain
Morocco Vlogs yes but the majority make up of the genes of Moroccans is Amazigh but your King and the politicians made everyone believe you are Arabs. Even the Moroccan jews are Amazighs.
My family has been arabized. I was grown up told I was Arab and my parents and grandparents believed it. This is not the case. A DNA test found out I am a mere 15% arab and an overwhelming 73% North African (Amazigh). I am from Tunisia and I plan to go to where I believe my berber tribe would have been and learn the language and culture, I will pass this down to my children and revive my culture. No more arabization! We need to start a movement of de-arabizing Our countries and making arab and amazigh cultures equal and in fact making amazigh culture a registered traditional and native culture under our governments with protection.
adam you should have other people in your family do a DNA test. Percentages can vary from parent to child, sibling to sibling, also there are things that other people in your family can inherent DNA wise that you did not receive. You have ancestors both Amazigh and Arab. ALL of it makes you!!!
@@fe6523 No DNA test is accurate. But I do know that all North Africans are of Amazigh origin, some of them were arabized and started speaking arabic and forgot their languages and some remained with their languages. Only 9% of me is Arab sorry :) and even then other estimated tell me its 0% like my heritage DNA. DNA tests are not trustworthy. By the way are you North African? Because if you are not then shut up, you shouldn't be telling someone who they are or arnt. I am first Amazigh before anything else.
@@fe6523 No my ancestors are more European than arab for crying out loud.
@@adamdfc9809 it was accurate for me adam,my biological mother is from Morocco, we have both Arab, north african, Spanish, jewish, sub saharan African as well a splash of Italian. My mother made it very clear we came from Arabia but migrated into north africa a long, long time ago. The DNA results exposed i was adopted which was true which had me so surprised and Faber gas tic. I think for every north African family what you have could me just north African or it could be like my family a multi racial mix due to history and all the different racial groups who were around due to the arab invasion.
@@fe6523 No, 90% of North Africans would have a majority of their genes from North Africa. Remember some of these DNA tests can't differentiate Amazigh DNA from European/African and especially Arab DNA. They are grouped Differently. What tests did you take and what are your results. By the way, i was told my whole life i was arab until I did the test, My country is very arabized, Tunisia and we forgot our berber languages and roots. Also my family comes from the city, and I'm still majority berber, I recommend either the Ancestry Test 2020 Update version or the My Heritage, 23andme is confusing as they group North African and Arab together (By the way arab is not a race or ethnicity it's a culture). All North Africans have predominantly North African DNA with some admixture due to conquests and invasion like when the muslims were expelled from Southern Italy and Iberia they settled in North Africa with their mixed children and our Arab blood comes from the men who came to North Africa and married with the local berber women and that is how their children forgot the berber language, they took their fathers language.

the arabs really did us evil with their culture, racism and their religion.
They destroyed the wealth, peace and culture in the world.
I do hope, that the arabs will be bought back to the arabian peninsuela. This will bring peach for europe, asia, africa, etc.
Tu es un mytho
tu es un arabe tunisien.
As Amazigh from tunisia i have to recognize that the only people our people benefited from are the muslims (arabs and ottomans) they themselves gave up certain of their evil customs for Islam, Islam is more important, the golden age of amazigh people was with islam we ruled over spain and part of France for centuries, but when christianism and peganism was brought to us we were at the darkest of time. The Arabs didn't conquer the land but established themselves peacefully, there have been some fights that we initiated, but it was only involving fighting men on a battlefield following rules and regulations they were very mercyful and didn't transgress even when we wanted to transgress them, they didn't enslave us like the christians and pegans did. Islam isn't the religion of arabs but of all mankind. And Allah made us tribes and nations so that we may get to know each others and not to seek supremacy over each other like the bible argue. This documentary isn't reliable it's over exagerating a lot, the first scene was reflecting not slavery under "the arabs" because there were none but under the christians, let's not forget that many people from morocco because they were too dark skinned were taken in america as literally slaves by the christians. There are only a few portion of amazigh without any cause or justification who hate arabs for some weird reason, i just think they are online trolls, and most of these online trolls are christians trying to add oil to the (non existent) fire. There is no hatred in islam we are all brothers. Without Al Islam we are nothing, stop seeking supremacy over each other preach Al Islam Al deen al Hak. I don't care even if i'm arab or amazigh i'm muslim all praise to the most high stop that nonsense nationalism that your enslavers the europeans has brought to you to literally kill you rape you colonize you and enslave you like the whole of Africa. Don't believe the lies of these "white supremacist" colonizers. We are amazigh arabs africans we don't care, we are united under one truth, one cause, one ultimatum Al islam. May Allah the Almighty give us success and prosperity with AL islam.
It makes me so happy to see my people being represented :)

There is no 'Fake' Arab, there is many ways one can become Arab, hence we have them black in Sudan, white in Syria etc. Arab is an ethnicity which isnt bound by genetics
@@vaktus3380 My ancestors? To this day I'm Amazigh, we speak Tamazight, we don't speak that fake Arabic bro.
How that fake Arabic came into being is actually simple, Amazigh people used to live in many tribes and developed their own accents, dialects until they pretty much formed their own separate languages.
By trade and religion, the commonality was religion (Islam) so pretty much the majority of the people spoke and understood Arabic.
As it always goes, various Tamazight words were used by traders, then came the French owners of these Moroccan "Arabs" voila current day Darija.
Language constantly evolves.
Then came some rectal penetrator who claimed to be a descendant of Muhammad (pbuh), now all of these fake Arabs are claim to be descendants of Muhammad (pbuh).. 😂
We Amazigh are not Arabs, we are the "free people" as in freed by Moses.
We are descendants of Abraham through Jacob.
We are Israelites and that's something to be proud of.
Afterall the people who wanted to kill Muhammad (pbuh) and his followers were Arabs (real Arabs).
I have seen how these fake rainbow Arab governments treat Amazigh people.
Forced Arabization, even restrictions on using Amazigh names etc..
Worthless evil wannabe Arabs, slaves to the West.
If you are not a descendant of Ismael, you are not an Arab, keep it simple.

There is a diffrence between the Amazighs and other minorities in the world. Today most of the people of the maghreb are arabized amazighs which them selves don't recognize their identity and don't know about their ancestors due to the gouvernements actions which were done to get the arab states help in order to get the independance from the french colonisation.
The video mentiond 30 million amazighs, i say it's wrong and it's more likely to say 30 million speakers of the tamazight language but the amazigh population in more than 80 million in the maghreb which represents thr whole population, and the reason why only the kabylie region and the Aures regions are the majority speakers of tamazight is because they lived in mountains (Djurdjura and The Aures mountains) and they kept the herritage going,
The Amazigh culture in now all across the maghreb region whether the lingua franca which is the dialects of the countries, well the grammar is arabic but most of the vocabulary is tamazight which tells us that the people still have the roots of its old culture, and in the food for example the Couscous plate and all the comunities does it and there are more evidences that proove the unity of the people of the maghreb which is AMAZIGH PEOPLE !

I disagree with your statement that the kabyles and the aures are the majority amazigh speaking communities. Apparently you haven't travelled much. I am from souss region in Morocco and there millions of us extending from as far south as guelmime all the way up north to marakech and from the atlantic to the algerian borders. Every town amd village in that whole region speaks tachlheit. Also, for economic reasons, every major city, especially casablanca have major Amazigh populations. On top of that, we have the Amazigh if the atlas mountains and Rif region. I was born in a small little village near taroudant but i spent most of my youth in Casablanca. Back then in the 1970's and 80's, I never felt looked down upon because of my heritage. Deep down I always felt that we are/were the majority anywhere in Morocco especially in Casablanca. Even if everybody speaks arabic or french I felt that was more of a necessity to survive than a dictate to change who we are and our history. Anyway, amazigh people have been around for thousands of years and will be around for thousands more.
AZUL its not only mountain regions. let's not forget the honorable desert people of Sahara who are also speakers and keepers of the tamazight language and heritage; thanks to isolation

The map that you showed is inaccurate bcz it only shows those who can speak Berber / the majority of North Africans except for Egyptians are of a Berber ancestry but they lost their mother tongue because of oppression and political systems that forced Arabic on them.
I AM A MOROCCAN AMAZIGH. THANKS FOR RAISING AWARENESS OF THGE WORLD ABOUT US. VIVE LES AMAZIGH
North Africans must be proud of their special history ( Tunisians, Algerians, Moroccans,Libyans ) !
North Africans must continue to value their Amazing History before the Settlement of the Arabs and Turkish Peoples in their lands!
We (who speak the amazigh language) we are still proud of our history, culture and language.
The problem is the Arabized amazighs, they think that they came from the deserts of Yemen and Saudi Arabia.
Thank you for representing us and explaining our story ♡ⵣ
Hello I'm Arab from Egypt, nice to meet you. I have a question if I may. How can I see a difference between a Arab like me or a Berbers, I see Berbers and Arab with all difference skin tone or eyes but still confusing, is it the same with you ?
born amongst Imazighen, raised by Imazighen and living a life of Imazighen, amazighi to the bone and proud.
I think there are two societies in Africa that deserve respect
1-Ethiopians
2-Amazigh people
Why ethiopians
Btw there is nothing called ethiopian as ethnic groups in ethiopia there are more than 100 ethnic groups in the country example being somalis whome i am their son with that being said we somalis are not proud to be still in ethiopia
And still looking for independece ( NB WHILE SAYING SOMALIS AM SPEAKING ON BEHALF OF THE OCCUPIED SOMALIS IN ETHIOPIA NOT OUR BELOVED COUNTRY)
@@abdullahiissa6674
1-The history of Ethiopia is very rich (the kingdom of Aksum and the kingdom of Kush)
2- They corresponded to Arabization.
3-They also opposed latinization.
4-Above all, Ethiopians always deserve respect because they are the first free people in Africa to defeat the white man.
I think these are enough
and kurd in turqia
@@gokalptozlu9201 The name "Ethiopia" is a name the Europeans gave them. It's a fake name! The locals never ever called themselves "Ethiopian" until recently. There are many ethnic groups in Ethiopia and most of these groups hate each other. These ethnic groups always clash and fight each other. Why do they clash and fight each other? Because these ethnic groups have their own language and cultural heritage. Nobody sees themselves as Ethiopian! Nothing can be more shameful and humiliating than calling yourself something the white man gave you. The lingua franca of Ethiopia is Amharic, but many ethnic groups refuse to speak it because they have this mentality that it's not "our" language. Loyalty to your ethnic group comes first. At the moment, Ethiopia is a ticking time bomb. It reminds me of the former Yugoslavia, where civil war eventually led to the formation of many nation states. The current prime minister is trying his best to create unity, but I don't think it will work.
The population of modern day Ethiopia is 100 million people and only 6 per cent of those people are the descendants of the Kingdom of Aksum. These people are concentrated in the north of the country in what is known as the Tigray region. When Western scholars talk about ancient Ethiopia. What they are really talking about is the history of the Tigrayan people. These Tigrayan people are scavengers and vultures historically and they are scavengers and vultures today. They invited many Europeans historically to fight their African neighbours.
Another thing, historical Ethiopia was known for being Christian, but today's Ethiopia is a majority Muslim country. All the regions of Ethiopia are majority Muslim except for the Amharic and Tigray regions. Even the Amharic and Tigray regions have minority Muslim populations. If you go to the capital Addis Ababa, you would think it is a Muslim city because there are many Mosques and many women wearing hijab in the streets.
Khaled S I thought Ethiopia already fought a war in the 80s and isn’t Gambella and Benishangul Gumuz mostly Christian
I was born in England however my family r Algerian and I had no idea the amazieghs even existed until someone on my tik tok fyp talked about them. Seeing through the comments I could be amaziegh and even knowing.

@Doctor Tesla yes in Spain almost the same ,but in north Africa we re more than 90 milion there re arabised too
@doctor yksi more than that 2 millions kabyle 1 million riffian and 1 million other berber 4 million in total in france
Amazighs are not a minority, the majority that speak Arabic are also Amazighs, same way people from Senegal are not Frensh just because they speak Frensh. Also, the "Arabic" dialects we speak in north Africa are so different from Arabic that even people from Egypt or Syria wouldn't understand them, our dialects should be considered their own languages, because they are as different from Arabic as English is from Frensh/Latin.
Berber do not support Azawad from Mali(bantu/niger-congo), they be oppressed more than in Morocco and Algeria, Azawad/North Mali will be majority black, taureg/berber old city like kidal, goa, timbktu and mopti

it hurts to see the brave landowners seeking recognition from those invaders. Justice to the Amazigh!
I recently found out that I am a paternal descendant of an E-M81 (E1b1b). Researching this subclade concludes that my Adam probably came from Morocco or Algeria, or from some nearby region, and probably invaded the Iberian peninsula generating descendants there and centuries later descendants of this one came to Brazil during the Iberian colonial period in the Americas. So I'm a direct lineal descendant of a Amazigh.

I'm Amazigh and I'm first and foremost very proud to be Moroccan
you are not amazigh !you are a slave of the arabs !
Only autistic idiots still think in extreme tribes and divide themselves. Move on. And im not 3iyacha. My nationality is Moroccan and I'm proud of it. Can I not be proud of my nationality you dumbasses? All Americans(asians, white, black, latink) are proud to be American. Same for us, Morocco is a multicultural nation and we should make our country better instead of being stuck in ethnicity and tribe discussions which keeps our country behind.
@@segjjh2473 I do agree we should make the country Morocco stronger, it starts by strenghtening the Tamazight, you should not forget that Morocco was very strond when it was ruled by the Imazighen like the Almohads and Almoravids, who were very feared by the Europeans and the Eastern Muslims. So if you want to strenghten a nation don't deny its roots and pride .
@@segjjh2473 and also America is a bad example, the clock is ticking for us Imazighen, the Arabization policy in Morocco is doing it's work at a fast rate, many Imazighen are becoming Arabized and forget their Tamazight language , Tamazight has the capacity to become a real language and even be better than Arabic and Persian and Turkish, Tamazight can even be used in sciences and law, I know that, The best examples that I can give you is Canada were French has been embraced by the Majority English speaking Canadians, then we have Switzerland that has 4 languages that all are officials and respected and employed in public services, we have also Belgium were French and Dutch and German are respected and accepted, Ireland is also an example were Irish Celtic has a great place, other good examples are for instance Spain were Catalan and Basque are widely used and facilitated, in Bolivia , Guarani is an official language, Guarani is a native language that is even spoken by Whites,

We just want the recognition of our Culture and Language equally as Arab. We are genetically Amazigh.

They are the native people of the North Africa, until they were colonized and enslaved by the Arabs.

It is gratifying that this little clip and others are a gateway to the world about the Amazigh People. Your struggles have reached the ears of the world. You are your own liberators so continue with the fight. Forgive me if I say you have been quiet for too long. You have to fight occupation, for linguistic freedom, for political liberation, equality, representation within the political structures and spiritual freedom. No matter how oppressive the occupation is your freedom is on the horizon of time. Oppressors always do not expect the oppressed to desire and recognise; freedom, self-determination and the built in power of aspirations. You need to show them you have these virtues. I wish you well.

people onli sai that because their governments tried to force them to be arab, in school i had to repeat like a parrot that algeria is arab and we are all arabs
so it's not about hating arabs, personalli i have nothing against somene from an actual arab tribe or from saudi arabia, especialli when thei acknowledge the truth, what i resent is ignorant people from maghreb who are most likeli amazigh but believe all the lies government told them and go further bi claiming our struggle, histori and language are all fake and a french conspiraci
