As a black American, black Americans, especially women have to leave the American culture behind when going to Africa… what would make someone so arrogant and disrespectful that they would go to another culture and not respect that culture and customs.. if the culture is to wear a hijab 🧕 then why would a black American woman be there wearing tight revealing clothes and not expect the locals to be offended??? Respect the country, culture, and customs when you travel
Agreed
@@rasyahudah144 😮💨 true. This needs to be reciprocated though. Folks get upset when we expect ppl to respect our culture n norms. When we try to point out that certain things aren't gonna fly here, the conversation then turns to " y'all think y'all are the only people in the world" and different insults suggesting that we are dumb cause we expect respect as well
Can’t wait to visit Tanzania! 🇹🇿🫶🏾
This sister had a problem with dressing modestly, and respecting the culture. Maybe she would be better off in Accra, or back in America where she could dress more revealing. TZ sounds more like a family friendly culture where i can raise my children away from the debauchery. I love it! Please don’t change! 👏🏾👏🏾
I absolutely agree with you I recognize many A.A fail to learn the cultural differences in the countries they choose to visit. And fail to respect those differences. Anything goes in America. Not so in many African and Middle Eastern countries.
I live that they are modest there, this definitely makes me want to go visit.
So u mean coming over to ur boyfriend's house and being way younger than this sister yet ur boyfriend asking her to cover up for u who put on loong Islamic dress👗 touching the ground and covering up ur hair too and is come over to just to spoil urself behind ur parent's back secretly and after putting on his shorts and T shirt to come out for fresh air means living a modest and descent life huh!!!? U're a biiiiiiiig fooooool,.
I think her idea is that this man wants her to dress to please this girl who came over to have sex wit him, yet he wants her to to put modest clothing on.
Actually Tz is not as conservative as I expected. A woman wearing hijab today will be dressed like a video vixen tomorrow. I'm speaking on Arusha and Dar. Some government buildings will refuse entry but that's about it. Been here on and off for 2 years now.
I dont believe that African Americans are going to be able to assimilate in most African countries until there are more structured programs to help make the transition easier. As an African American we are wanting to belong and heal from generational trauma. We are not looking to be traumatized when we make such a big move to Africa. I know it may seem small to others but being over charged for us hits differently probably because it carries the feeling of being used and not really wanted. We carry that scar because our historical experience. Surely you can understand that.
Structured programs?? Brother Please! We have lived on that continent since the birth of man and will continue long after America has burnt up. No where in the continent save South Africa is in the top 10 most murderous places in the world but people still go to Columbia and Mexico on vacation. Too many of us are scared to suffer for our people and homeland
honestly, get over it. i'm black american. just stop having these expectations. if they over charge because you are american and they expect you've got dollars, get over it. that's part of THEIR game.
Exactly. They start foaming at the mouth because they think foreign blacks are all rich and jack up the price but short themselves in the long run because I’ll never go back. I have experienced a lot of jealousy, cattiness and hate as a black female. That’s just being real.
Actually, she is from Jamaica, not America. The title of the post is misleading. I think some are going to Africa with thoughts of the grass being greener. If you go with the mindset that everything works like it does in America (or Jamaica), you have already lost the battle. Be honest with your decision making before moving to Africa. Ask yourself: Can I adapt to living without all of the modern conveniences I presently enjoy now for the rest of my life? It's a personal sacrifice and saying it is one thing, but doing it is another. ✌🏽
Yes I agree, but I thought that living in a developed country, they should read and watch RUclips on the countries that they would love to reside. It’s a different country and mannerism. But the Hon. Marcus Garvey said, not all Africans belongs in Africa, and that they should just stay where they are.
I've never experienced that and I am African American I think if African American people going to African learn about the culture, language, respect their beliefs and be modest when walking around change that American mindset adapt the African mindset. You can't go over there and don't respect their laws .
So true mate. I see so many forigners never learning the language. If they did it would totally change their experiences
Did you say to adapt their mindset, are you serious.
I think everywhere you go you should at least where some pants on the first day and no cleavage and then if you see other people dressing more revealing you know you can let up. But if place is mostly Muslim never where shorts or clothes that show off your cleavage.
I lived in Ghana from 2017-2019, I only came back because it was very hard to figure out how to get citizenship. I went to immigration several times and no one knew how to help me. I even brought a copy of the law that said we could get citizenship. So back into captivity in America I went. Over the 3 years I was in Ghana I spent like 35-40k. I rented a 3 bedroom 3 bathroom place, it was very nice. I didn’t want to come back but I can’t stay somewhere with no citizenship.
This is so bad for Ghana to be doing to African Americans
It is about knowing who to talk to and understanding the traditional ways vs the government way. Your frustration is understood.
Did anyone ever harass you about any documents in Ghana? Were you ever told you could not do anything you wanted to do in Ghana because you're African American or because you don't have a citizenship? So you think once you go to Ghana, then it should be automatic citizenship just because youre from the diaspora? Do you know what some people could do with a free passport? You have to understand that not everyone who receives a free passport has a good mind and want to do better things in the country.
@@evans_KEyou are not serious,very typical of a Kenyan RUclipsr.
😂 ni**a u was a Mexican! 😂😂😂 I'm glad you are back home... Try another country ... And try marriage... It's usually a good way to get papers 😊🇯🇲
As a black American who lived in Uganda. I’ve rarely ran into black Americans also it takes time to get use to living in some of these countries. I love going back.
GO why u come in AFRICA ??
Tanzania is great place! I love Tanzania !
God bless Africa !!!
Absolutely most of the American who came into TANZANIA was single mum (broke) they were struggling in America no way thy could live here..
@@jesuspower2390lol exactly we can see through their bullshyt
This woman did no research before moving. She was shocked by the culture, weather, bartering system, and visa rules. She expeceted to bring her brasen Westernized attitude to a conservative country and be loved for it. Life is about preparation and adaptation. Even the young men were embarrassed by the way she dressed. That says a lot.
as a Tanzanian, this sister did not examine what she can do and what she cannot do in front of African communities. here in Tanzania, if you wear clothes that leave a large part of your body exposed, we will look at you and you will leave many questions for people,and worse thing is, it shows that she has gone to live in a housing complex, if she was in her own private house or went to a night club, she could be free to wear the clothes she likes, but if you go out, dress civilly, no one would be surprised. neither muslim nor christian we all respect dressing. the other thing is that she should have a local friend who would make her understand the life here and so that she can be close to the community.
It sounds like Tanzania is very conservative in in their society values
Ndio tatizo lao kubwa. Wamarekani wengi wanafikiri kwamba wanatubariki wakija nchi zetu. Hawajaribu kujifunza lugha, wanadharau mila na desturi zetu, halafu wanashangaa wakikuta maisha ni magumu
Tanzania is a conservative country. Has this lady considered learning Swahili? If she shows interest in the language, she may see that the locals may be different. As in America, Americans expect foreigners to speak English; so why won’t she learn Swahili? If she does even attempt to learn she will find many locals to be very helpful.
Yeah, she pretty much said she had no motivation to learn the local language so of course she's going to feel isolated.
To be honest, she doesn’t have any major problems. She just need a base of friends, because no matter where a person move to, they need friends, otherwise anybody will feel lonely. If she stays, she will get over it. It’s nobody’s fault, she’s just EXTREMELY lonely! She’ll be alright if she find friends!! ❤❤😌🇺🇸
And she has a child
I agree, sounds like she needed a strong network and that Tanzania just wasn’t the country for her. Much of what she said could be true for most African countries, so Africa may not be for her.
True
They come to look for men u can tell
@@dcbelle01 People don't realize Africans have been in other countries for years so they already have communities set up but black Americans are just now moving in smaller numbers to this country so there is not community for them as a safeguard.
The issue with that sister is individual versus group. She said she was a loner. Africa is mostly about groups ( family, tribe, friends). She didn't understand that it's about your team not just you. If you don't have a team, you're going to have big problems . Plus , in my option , a single black woman should not move to a Muslim country. If you are not from there, or speak the language, it's not good.
She's Jamaican. Most people from the carrbbean can relate to Africans they're very neighborly
Being a loner does not mean you don't understand the value of the group, or you think it's all about you. She didn't say that. She was underscoring the fact of how lonely she felt despite being accustomed to her own company. I am a loner. I still want to be a part of a group and have human companionship. Perhaps you misunderstood.
As an African born in Africa and raised by Africans in the diaspora, I have tried to go back home ( west and east) and I can tell you that there is an insidious hatred from africans that needs to be acknowledged. It makes the racism in American seem trivial and trust me I don't say this lightly. The issues are way more intense than just trying to fit in or adapt. I hate the perception of diasporans not being strong enough or being too spoiled to adapt.
Its not Against African Americans get another passport of another African country and go to another African country you will still have issues. Also there are laws and culture one has to get in the culture in some places one will be accepted others NOT are so small like bots-wan 2 million people very protective of their culture and language. Also people have to know Africa has never been one country Look at the visa issue before going and if accepted for residency learn the language and culture of your city or village or you will clash.Also know you might not earn half of what you are earning in USA.
We're not spoiled. We were brought up with these conditions in the western world. Just like other are used to their conditions. They come to the Western world and they feel like they've hit the jackpot because of the conditions we have here.
Going to a country with people who look like us/you but yet have a hatred towards us/ you is heartbreaking.. going to Africa and having to be on guard because everyone sees you as a financial Target is draining.....
@@melanatedone8655Ask a rich African if he is on guard or not after that you wont take things personal
The matter is a lady president of Tanzania 🇹🇿 she is black African but she is more influenced by Arab and Indian Muslim culture.
So in the country of Tanzanian I loved former President Magafuli administration. He make it Tanzanian one love ❤️.
Unfortunately A lady president putting in jail follow African and African American 🇺🇸 more than other Indian and Arab.
It’s so sad 😭😭😭
Africans aren't racist you know nothing about Africa...
Excellent job brother! As a black American I applaud your efforts your videos are wonderfully put together and insightful!please keep up your excellent work! 🫶🏾💯🫶🏾
Thanks for an amazing analysis of this issue! You are giving helpful information for those wanting to leave America
Unless retiring, if Black Americans don’t have skills and mindset needed to invest and build much needed opportunities on the continent. Stay in America please ‼️
FOH! Clearly Africans don't have the mindset because the continent is in shambles with non-whites controlling the economies. Worry about that!
Your own people who move to America don’t come back to build. 🤣🤣The Chinese are though.
My brother, thank you for your thorough analysis of why it's difficult for many African Americans to fit in many countries of Africa. I've always told people to travel
to an African country and see how they move culturally, spiritually, economically, and religiously. In my research, I see many of the African countries are either ATR, Christianity and Islam, now, I'm going to say something that will offend many when I say this, I find religions to be the biggest barriers in the African diaspora because none these religions were ordained by the Creator of the Heaven. They all got their origins from a man and his philosophical beliefs and a date when they started. They're cults. Religions divide people, and spirituality unites people. I'm sure this is going to raise many antenna, and it's not my intention to offend, and one of the main reasons why the world's is so screwed up royally. Any African Americans that goes to any African countries be prepared for some cultural shocks and leave your American cultural mindset at home if you can and find a group of people that will show you around and how a particular country move. Young sister, please leave your magic city girl outfit at home and dress accordingly to that country customs it will help the locals to open up to you more, I believe. Africa is a developing continent and has a lot of work to do with shedding the neocolonist mindset to put itself back on track and the world stage where it belongs.
I’m wondering why should Black Americans get prepared for some cultural shocks! Do black Americans have any culture?
I believe it is crucial to go learn some culture in Africa.
It’s very hard to survive in a place where you believe they have to learn from you and not for you to learn from them while you don’t belong there. There can never be something like learning from each other in such a situation. Learn from them to survive.
The concept of colonialism should be wiped out of black Americans minds first before thinking of Africans trying to recover from the mindset.
Most black Americans are totally brainwashed and be hallucinating about their own place. It’s only skin color remains on them. The rest is history and American laws.
I think your experience living in Africa is what you make it. If you are open to learning and adapting to a new and different culture, language and belief systems you will love being there.
If you are closed off to new things and different people, the locals will pick up on it quickly and isolate you.
Maybe she is set in her ways at 34 years old, or she could have chosen a different country that is more western and she can identify with the environment better.
Maybe South Africa would be better.
Sometimes things are just not a fit. It doesn't have to be anyone's fault. 54 countries, not everyone will be for everybody.
We are not the same people, we are the true Biblical Israelites that fought against these so called African nations, all these nations have been renamed and you think that they are someone else, but they are not, they are Hamites, and they helped in our enslavement, why do you think that there are Slave ports in these African countries that are on the Ocean..wake up Israel.
Erm nope.. as she expressed she was trying to make it what she wanted and that wasn't accepted. Tanzania is a tough cookie. It's one of the newer counties still in the spotlight. The cultural values hasn't shifted to the degree that perhaps people expect. Theres a lot that goes into going to a new country and dropping everything that you are, to accept the given culture. You end up feeling invisible, nothing about who you are is acknowledged. it's like your whole being means nothing, you just accept the new culture or leave. She seems like a gentle soul, not trying to push "her ways' onto the Tanzania's as such... Her age has nothing to do with it Moving to Tanzania, gives the idea that's she was quite open to a new experience. You cannot research from your home countries the intricacies of a country. You have to live there to truly know. I dont think she should be judged for expressing her thoughts on what she though vs what she got .. it's all lived experience... anywho I don't say this to keyboard battle, i say this because anytime someone doesn’t say what those that do not YET live here wanna here, that person always get criminalised in turn those want a full picture don't get it. I sure she helped many a people in making there decision in perhaps where to start! 🔺
Also if anyone wants to stay in a fantastic black owed airbnb in Zanzibar holla 😁🤭🥳
@@AzaniaJalia My personal opinion is that the younger you are, the easier it is to assimilate to a different culture. I know many immigrants in America that live in separate communities with people from their home country only. They never learn English, they never really adapt or adjust to American culture except for the love of money. Their children have no problem with assimilating to American culture at all.
Being a single mother from the West is not a big plus with African men, despite being american.
Did she mention she was looking for an African man? 🤔
Thank You she did not.
She sounds like a modern woman. Others would not have this experience
All I heard was her personal interpretations and her FEELINGS. Then she included all expats into her personal experience. I've always felt welcomed in Africa and other continents. Life isnt perfect everyday...adults know this. Learn the lesson and move through it better the next time if any. I also sense American entitlement BIG TIME! I'm headed back to Africa for the 3rd time this year! Can't wait to get back to the garden of Eden!
Exactly! I’m def with you on that! I also noticed how she’s basically complaining about not being able to “be herself” because people would judge her for dressing too revealing… If that was the case, she was better off staying in America, where that sort of dress code (or lack there of) is accepted as the norm. TZ seems like a family oriented modest place where one could raise their children away from the debauchery and degeneracy… I think what makes assimilation so hard for some AAs is having to unlearn certain western cultural habits that we’ve grown accustomed to.
@@Jah_Nzola to be honest, I hope those type of females and males NEVER come to Africa! We don’t need any more bad images…that’s what I’m trying to move away from…I like decent family values and people who carry themselves with respect. Just common decency
Where specifically are you going to, any favourite country?
@@ewolz I’m going back to Nairobi and Mombasa. I’ll hit Tanzania coast this time also.
You are also “male” so you wouldn’t be mistreated. This sounds like a mostly Muslim country. There are many black women who have travelled to Muslim countries that have had bad experiences with the men being disrespectful to them. I do agree that black women need to be aware of, understand and respect the culture of the country they are traveling in or moving to. I will never condone Americans going into other peoples country and disrespecting their culture. This woman stated she wanted to “be cute” and dress and do what she wanted when the culture around her frowned upon how she carried herself.
👀 I hope FBA are reading these comments... hearing and taking to heart the spoken and unspoken..........
She seems like a nice girl, well mannered and respectful. It's the people that was the problem
It is not true Tanzanians are very kind people. it shows that her clothes were not disciplined and she also did not know how to mix with society
She is the problem she complains too much. They could go back to their slave country ..can u imagine they were complaining about the weather??? she didn't know that it was a tropical country.
@@jesuspower2390How slve country if the continent who’s continue existing slve is in Africa ?! To start with the African sold the Africans as a slve for Europeans
Am I hearing hate & jealousy from even our own people over there? Wow, on top of the hatred and racism that we already deal with in America! I have always heard that Africans have hate for African Americans, even stooping to low levels of calling us lost dogs in their own language. I never believed it but after hearing these stories, I am sad. I had a good experience when I visited Ghana, however, I did get over charged when I shopped alone. I would not move back unless I knew a trusted person/family.
Since coming into the knowledge of who we really are as a people….We will never truly have peace until our Father returns and place us in our true home
How will your father come and how would you recognize him ? Get out of the church.
I'm at peace and have been for 18 months. Yah is peace if you have a deeply connected relationship with Him.
That is the truth, and that will only happen when we forsake the idol gods of our former masters, and return to YHWH with fullness of heart, walking in his laws.
Tanzania is modest and that is beautiful, American ladies that are used to dressing however will have a problem there . Is much easier for us men to love and appreciate Tanzania. When you go places you have to respect the culture and values
All you’ve said is true.
I experienced it also and more. Left there and happy I did. Your word (ESCAPE )was epic..
Because they believe we don't come with a plan, my sister and brother don't give up so easily it's our home. Just love your African brother.
I think she doesn’t have any base of family or friends there. She means well, because the same thing happened to me!! I didn’t know anybody and I felt so terrible and alone, at first! I agree, she shouldn’t give up, give herself more time!
Yes, a strong network and resilience goes a long way when relocating anywhere, especially West Africa.
I mean it is what it is...as a black American you gotta expect to not get treated the same. No reason to get upset about it. I had a Nigerian girl here in America tell me she couldn't talk to black Americans. Because we sell drugs or some sht. I just laughed and went on about my business
It's not discrimination,it's jealousy ,tribalism,corruption and ignorance!
You’re right!
Jealous of what actually?What does she have that no Tanzanian has ?What education does she have that no Tanzanian or no other African has? How much money did she take to Tanzania that no other Tanzanian has? What beauty does she posses that no other Tanzanian posseses? No one is jealous her .
But it’s probably not the majority! Because they might be skeptical too, because And when the Europeans and Chinese come, they always come bringing gifts, which makes it easy for them to steal and take 10 times more resources than they bring!
Is being jealous a sin? If it is, according to who? What is wrong with tribalism? If tribes exist why wondering about tribalism? Corruption combustion is a slow process and it is in America, UK, Canada, etc.
Ignorance is everywhere too; if you think not just mention one country without education system!
@@benbo7042normally if africa did sold our parents then africa should help us everytime anytime because they owe us something
Researching before transition is crucial! Befriending some of the elder local inhabitants is valuable! Sorry that this daughter could not make it in Tanzania! When I came to the USA from the Caribbean, my sister sent me to the corner store to buy something for her! What I saw in the streets of New York made me cringe! On returning to her home, I told her that I was going back home tomorrow! She laughed at me when I told her what I had seen and she said we would be moving that weekend! I’m still here 54 years later!
What did yu see? pl share. .
Not enough research compares to boots on the ground. I’ve lived in Tanzania and mostly everyone who was there left, including us. Research is great but boots on the ground.. raw experiences are another thing. Not everyone left because of money.
@@journeytothemosthigh5021”not everyone left because of money.” Please elaborate.
why? I said what I said. We all had a series of negative experiences. @@abdullahrasheed1493
Ruby what did you see. You can't leave us on a cliff hanger like that
We embrace all black Americans because it's our obligation to help them integrate within us. I want to urge black Americans who recognize Africa to be their home to be careful not to be misled by some black Americans who say that their origins is not Africa. They should not be afraid to join us here because we have been waiting for them to come back. It's so wrong to hear some black Americans saying that they were originally from the American continent. I felt bad watching that clip. We want them all here. God will have no mercy on anyone attempting to allienate them.
Diasporas in general but more specifically African Americans have been utterly stripped and beaten from their African culture and traditions. Many of them suffer from extreme cultural and identity crisis. It is quite sad to see AAs clinging to different cultures… please be patient with them…
They like to complain too much they could go back to their slave country ..can u imagine they were complaining about the weather??? she didn't know that is a tropical country
We are not obligated to help anyone so speak for your self friend
🧢🧢🧢 I’ve traveled east Africa an Tanzania a lot and for 1 they give you a year for your visa & you can apply at the offices 2 soon as I get there I am greeted with love an RESPECT matter of fact Tanzania made me have pride in myself as a Black Man cause of how much respect I got, 3 I had plenty of opportunities to do business there people were literally offering me to be apart of projects. But not to say she is lying i think this is a trauma response from being an African American to where she didn’t analyze that traveling to Islamic law countries is
VERY challenging
African American DNA is more connected to West Africa than East Africa,the more reason they connect and feel happier when they settle in Ghana or Nigeria.There's something about these two countries that other African countries don't have.
Not Nigeria they will not tolerate their entitlement mindset.only Ghana for the love of money. Nigeria doesn't have time for that.
@@werqzeleke2815Foolish comment
Do you know we also have caves and buildings along our coasts that were holding areas before shipping of blacks to other continents? there is alot you dont know about your history,learn and study much you will be suprised of informations about you that you didnt know. how do you believe the ones who took your ancestors as slaves from their motherland tell you the truth about where you come from?how do you have people in america with the name kenya or keniya or even kymani marley in jamaica or even kabaka in jamaica?all this are kenyan names. am just saying that apart from nigera and ghana, there is also benin,liberia, mali,guinea,gambia,uganda,tanzania and kenya though kenya is where they got the beating of their lifetime they had to flee.

I can say 99% of this dude content is on black America, we rent free in his head.
No matter where we go we face social and cultural discrimination and ignorance. Adapting does not mean forgetting ones own culture, identity and history.
The thing is, you never Narrate about your country Kenya. Everyday is Tanzania and Ghana.
I’m feeling sorry to here this from the sister about experience she had …
I’m Tanzania and I’m living abroad you can’t imagine the challenge we get the Tanzanian ourselves just to ask the Passport …
Iam Tanzanian have many friends from USA especially Africa in America most of them they don't respect the law they know much tolking to much I have friend from Philadelphia now he have kid and he stay in Dar el salaam now he speak Swahili Iam driver Uber and bolt so I have enough experience about Africa in America plz don't tell others people that Tz is bad country let me tell you the truth in world you will never see county like Tanzania

Great video Kaka.
Just so you know that TZ has immigration laws just like other countries, and if an immigrant wants to live in TZ illegally he/she will face the Law enforcement just like in America. Is that easy to live in America illegally? How many people have escaped to Canada from America just because they have no American Papers? Also Immigration Laws of Tanzania have NOT changed since Magufuli Passed away, they still the same..so don't fool people that because of new Administration a lot have changed. All people of all kind and Nationality are welcome to Tanzania but they have to come legally and acquire papers which allow foreigners to live in the country, just like in American countries, European countries and even Kenya.
If you don’t fit you don’t fit, many have been too westernized from nature/natural/tribalism/development/Africa…what seems great from RUclips videos etc is a different reality some of the time. Africa is about a new beginning, being reborn as black diaspora into someone of your own making reflective of the new environment. While we are black African descendants, we are all not native born African so ones have to be realistic, opening minded, strong, and have resolve about what moving to Africa entails; visits ok but long term it’s not for everybody. In my understanding, experiences, and outlook, moving to Africa is about creating what the black diaspora never had in the western world, and that is community…the opportunity to create a community with likeminded people from the west & locals is key to mental ease & peace of mind. What many in some cases naive & happy go lucky westerners believe is Africa shares the same standards as western nations across the board but not so. Africa is in its developing stage, and unless one’s share in that vision & can hold their own, to go to Africa without that in mind is not realistic, and in some cases you won’t find what your use too/looking for. Africa awaits its creators, not ready done repats who lived in a bubble all their lives…it’s going to take tolerance, tenacity & work, and as diasporas we have the opportunity to influence & help Africa grow in the right and truest sense…Food, clothes, shelter, clean water, natural medicines that work to prevent & cure disease…the basic fundamentals of life with black love; that is what one’s need along with some money to self sustain and invest in cash flow ventures. If your not rich don’t expect to be living that GoodLife fitness, in a mansion on the beach overly looking turquoise waters, eating grapes & salads to the sound of Kongo drums in Kente cloth outfits, while the limo waits out front to take one’s to the latest Burnaboy concert. Most don’t even get that in the western world smh and expect it in Africa…Less your a affluent colonizer descendant, in government or a major corporate player in the respective nation…your having pipe dreams. What you can expect is a decent home near the beach with cheaper rent or purchase price, local produce and/or grow your own garden it’s cheaper than big supermarkets with foreign import brand products; work out at home, all you need is discipline; a bicycle/local bike/mini bus/taxi/Uber to get around or buy your own vehicle; electricity can & will go out on occasion; buy bottled water it’s recommended; connect with other repats & locals… you win some you lose some like anywhere else…the African heaven most are seeking has to be built so it’s not there yet(automatically)…and the most important thing, budget budget budget…If you can’t cook and want to eat out 5 times a week you best be a tourist for a week or 2, if not things will add up; Next you’ll be famous on RUclips crying about how Africa didn’t work for you. A few more pointers, Dress the standard/modest/respectable, watch out for those mosquitos…long sleeves especially at evening/night and close your doors & windows, use fan & a/c if have to keep cool, Didn’t get melanated by cool temperatures but by the hot sun.

What? lol There is more silicone and weave in Africa than there is in America. There are more natural sisters in the States than in African cities. My Zimbabwean girlfriend can't wear her natural hair around her friends without them picking on her.
Actually, she is from Jamaica, not America. The title of the post is misleading. I think some are going to Africa with thoughts of the grass being greener. If you go with the mindset that everything works like it does in America (or Jamaica), you have already lost the battle. Be honest with your decision making before moving to Africa. Ask yourself: Can I adapt to living without all of the modern conveniences I presently enjoy now for the rest of my life? It's a personal sacrifice. Saying it is one thing, but doing it is another.
@@lorrainemounts2416…when she leaves Tanzanian I’ll bet you she’s returning back to mainland USA where she left from.
@@tyrismaxey 😳😅😏? Smh weaves yes, silicon I doubt that due to the cost etc. There are way more natural sisters, where in Africa have you been/lived? Africa has the most black people in the world & Africa is a continent hosting billions of people not millions so what your stating is not realistic but I won’t disagree with what you say your Zimbabwean girlfriend experienced.

Africa does not have jobs for foreigners, this is why Africans leave and come here to America or the UK because all the jobs are here.
True sister
Not really. Investors make big money in Africa
I think most diasporas can fit inn in west Africa, but their mindset don't like competitions amongst themselves, you needs to have a business mindset if you wanna live in ghana comfortable,and secondly most love in the capitals that's why
If you’re wounded and broken here in the states, you’ll be problematic or miserable anywhere else! Running from your generational curses to another country will have you like a chicken with his head cut off!!!
I think most African Americans would easily adopt to South Africa because its closer to America culture and its more organized
I appreciate your love and support for the people ✊🏾 I would love to unite with you brother when I get there
Why do Kenyans are so obsessed about Americans if they're staying or leaving???
If your a foreigner and want to live in 🇹🇿 make sure you get your papers straight,if you want to deal with immigration you need to know someone there and for that to happen you need a tanzanian friend .immigration also does as Tanzanians dirty even when we need a passport .
African American does nit have any behaviors how can you trying to move to Tanzania without legal documentation. ,abd when they return to racist america, they tells lies about the country.
Great video. I believe authentic videos should be shown as to what's needed to assimilate in each country. What one needs to know, the how to. It may give better insight before one packs up and make the move.
I don't think it's about how beautiful Africa is but how the African countries and governments make it easy for them to relocate to Africa and be embraced.Only country that's doing better in welcoming our black people to Africa is Ghana.Am not from Ghana though but I hv been following the Ghanaian initiative.
Very informative video. Before relocating we need to do our research and visit first. Thanks for your honesty.
Glad it was helpful!
Not just about research. You need a true insider to guide you. It is very important because you will not get information about the way things are really are.
The first thing that we will learn is that African Americans have no true roots or ancestors from many of the places where they relocate. Tanzania is not West or Central Africa(Cam and Cong)
As Africans the true is even Africans peoples they over charged them when they know that they coming from Europe or Americans they believe you have more money , they start from Africa's who are living in overseas it not something new you guys just having that experience now
She is the problem she complains too much. They could go back to their slave country ..can u imagine they were complaining about the weather??? she didn't know that it was a tropical country.
As far as I see it, God brought my family to the Caribbean and this is where I belong, I have no interest in living in the lands of my ancestors Africa or Europe, visiting is one thing, living is another.
Excellent video Brother.
Shalom, thank you sister
Good video, i plan on moving there hopefully someday. That’s why I’m watching many videos and learning what I can to make the transition as smooth as possible for me and my sons.

We have to visit, connect, control your emotions, taking our time and plan.
Black American women will have a hard time in any country outside the US unfortunately
Yes indeed
New subscriber here, keep content flowing thanks , I am researching where in the Continent I wanna visit real soon, and eventually relocate and settle thanks
Awesome! Thank you!
I don’t think that the people in the diaspora especially those in North America, please stop comparing America with Africa. I’m surprise of the Jamaican lady, she should know better. Africa is in its developmental and building stages. You have to go to Africa with some money and a building mentality. Do an in-depth and thorough research.
I have seen this young lady on several channels. She traveled to a few Africans countries with a toddler. The moment the honeymoon is over and she don't get what she want's she bash the country and levaves.
🤣🤣
The way I see it, she's taking time to see if she fits in, The prices are different for us, and the Muslims here are for looks only, plus it is hot. I've been here for over 2 years, and I agree.
This 1st Sister doesn't seem to get it. Tanzanian are a very respectful and modest people. Americans and Europeans, in many instances, just are so arrogant ,ignorant and contemptuous of the customs and mores of other people. I saw a video of a muscular black man , without a shirt, walking around a city in China.
That was not only silly but disrespectful. The same with workout clothes , common sense would tell you that what's acceptable in the US wouldn't always work in another country.
Customs, and the cloths you wear, Has nothing to do with you following The Most High Laws, judging people is Man's Law, loving your brother and helping one another is GOD'S law, and that's worn in your Heart, and shows in your Actions
I am not AA. I am Jamaican. I have lived in America and have learned the ways of AAs and JAs. I find it difficult some times to navigate the separatism that can sometimes rare its nasty head from both. This was brought on by the colonist. They forced us to learn to hate each other and to be skeptical of one another. Apparently this holds true for even our brothers and sisters that were never stolen. I would love to relocate back to one of the African countries. Tanzania was one of my top choices. I am sad to hear the things this young lady experienced and that many AAs are leaving. I am still optimistic in my desire to explore Africa as my home. Thank you for this expose and for the different angles one needs to consider. I truly hope one day we will realize that we need each other. That divide and concur has been the only strategy the colonist have truly been successfully destroying us with.
Thank you for your perspective brother.
My pleasure
As an American I seen a lot of raw videos of Africa that literally had me shook. Communities living in garbage slums, extreme poverty.... The Africans in America act like home is running through fields with daisies in your hair and the sun shining with birds chirping.... what we see and what I'm hearing are completely different. Even the African people I work with. They seem to want to stay here. I've asked them when are you going back home? Are you building back home???? What businesses are you setting up back home to help the community and yourself when you go back there? The literally look at me like I'm speaking a different language, never answering.
When I express how I want to go to Africa and travel, donate and possibly start a plan for relocating or buying property.... I'm side eyed and teeth are sucked😢😢. It's also very interesting how I'm told every stereotypical thing is only a black American thing!! The Africans I've worked with and came in contact with have stopped talking to me when I refer to them as "us"😮😢😂😂😂
Literally East African, South African, West African people I work with the only thing they have in common is africa. No language, nothing. Yet I'm considering an outsl ider and not qualified to sit with them!!! I literally got written up for telling a lady from Togo she seems really happy to invite the non-black people to her country why is she not reciprocating the same feelings towards us???? I was told I offended her🤔😔🤨🤨😐
Just shows you there's shitty people everywhere..
I don't blame them for shunning you. I would too. You don't sound very bright
its sometimes not easy to some South Africans to live in other parts of Africa let alone African Americans, the connection is no longer there. Yes, we all black but the structure is broken. for me i think if African Americans wanna relocate to Africa, they should come to Africa as human beings coming to other human beings, find a place that suites them well, learn about it and take everything from there....After all love will conquer.
I agree with people who say South Africa may be a little bit easier for an African American.
But South Africa is dangerous in terms of crime.
Wealthy but crime ridden.
Because we have the largest gap between rich and poor in the world.
Amen.
You made a incredible documentary your analysis on this is masterful I feel if she had traveled with a husband or some type of family support especially if you had that in America relocation is not easy you miss your old life and find things to fault.
Well, we don't want them in the US either.

DON'T EVER ACT AS IF WE'RE DESPERATE TO BE IN YOUR COUNTRY !!!
WE'RE NOT FLOCKING TO YOUR COUNTRY - don't get it twisted
u will be treated as normal here ...what is the difference she is black as u are.
This isn't even a real account. This is a bot or unhappy agitator 🙄
@@amarisimpson1506: NO, STUPID! I am a real person. I'm from the United States.
@@amarisimpson1506: You dont even know what a bot is 😆
It is true. You are not desperate to be here.
In this day and time, the majority of African Americans are 100% europeanized (although most are in denial) and culturally have no connection to Africans. The expectation of an African American's transition in Africa should be difficult because of the extreme cultural differences. You both are foreigners to each other. African Americans who want to move to Africa need to understand that they are foreigners to Africans, and as with any foreigner trying to assimilate into another country, the difficulty and hardship in adapting is expected.
Facts black people in America are colonized to the core. We are conditioned to be like them.
So true because a lot of us don’t realize how Europeanized we really are until we come here and actually have to live. Sometimes our real “Karen” ways begin to show when something isn’t going the way it goes back in our white world and I’ve seen this with some of the most so called “ down home, blackish, black, black types” when issues arise.
After 500 yrs uprootment to think that you are African is wishful thinking
Here is the problem that I see with all this junketing around Africa: How do African Americans really think they can adjust to Africa when they really have not reached out to Africans in their own country? Impossible task to start with. You must first get to know Africans in American before you set out on this jamboree. It is more like a wild goose chase really.
Agree important to have African friends first
Your title is not entirely fair to your country. However, the reality is that black americans do not have support of the American government in moving to Africa and setting up successful businesses in Africa the way that Chinese do. Other races like indians move in tight clicques and form business communities with relative ease in Africa. Yet when African Americans try to build those communities, Africans complain that AA are not integrating in the broader African society. It is like damed if you do and damned if you dont. The fact is that other races have had a head start in Africa over AA. Those other races protect eachother so that they are not cheated or feel disconnected. However, many AA cant say the same when it comes to buying land, building a home, setting up a business and just doing the very basics of life such as establishing relationships to buying food to eat in parts of Africa.
Black people have to do a better job of working with eachother so we can succeed as a people wherever we may be stound the world.
Choose what you want to do. Either come back as Pan Afrikan or an expatriate. African Americans have a tough time differentiating between the 2 words. A Pan African is one who comes back with NO MONEY, looking for free land, etc. You SELL yourself SHORT when you go to another country demanding free stuff or complaining about your own country. An expatriate is one who moves in with a specific goal, with their own means of survival, promptly setting up a business and employing locals. You will live, literally, like a King when you come back with your own means. Now, AAs call themselves expatriates and then start begging for free stuff and start bawling when rejected.
Essential that Black people re-connect to God on a personal level and live a holy, moral and righteous life!
Then, we must re-connect to Africa to buy land, invest and create businesses!
By re-connecting to God and living a holy, moral and righteous life, we will be like-minded and able to have the same vision and be continually purposed on our mission!
THAT MISSION IS TO RETURN TO THE COVENANT WITH GOD AND DEVELOP TRUE ECONOMIC EMPOWERMENT FOR BLACK PEOPLE!
UNTIL AND UNLESS WE RE-CONNECT TO GOD IN A PROFOUND WAY AND OF ONE ACCORD AS TO THE NEED FOR TRUE ECONOMIC EMPOWERMENT, NOTHING WILL CHANGE!
IT IS CRITICALLY IMPORTANT TO REALIZE THAT WE ARE FIGHTING AGAINST EVIL SPIRITS!
EVIL SPIRITS THAT HAVE CONFLICTING INTERESTS TO THAT WHICH IS GODLY, MORAL AND JUST.
NOTE, THE ULTIMATE PRIZE IS ETERNAL LIFE IN THE SPIRITUAL REALM!
YES, WE CAN INDEED HAVE A GREAT PHYSICAL LIFE ALONG WITH THE COMFORTS BUT NOT AT THE EXPENSE OF HAVING A ETERNAL LIFE IN THE SPIRITUAL REALM!
❤the most intelligent comment so far.
@@bekisiphotshili2566 I dont know any AA that are expatriates or pan africans and by your definition start begging for free stuff when they get to Africa. I nor any AA has to make any choice because what you are claiming is utter stupidity. I have clearly said by experience one, that many AA don't receive money from their American governments to help establish communities and businesses in Africa, and two when they do manage to try to set up such to support and protect their fledgeling status in Africa they are accused of being separatists by the locals.
However I understand what the problem is, minus your ridiculous statement. Black people, whether from Africa, America or Europe are a divided people with deep seated issues which we will resolve together.
We have to work with established organizations like the A.M.E Church. Going it alone in any foreign nation without an overarching body to support you is almost guaranteed disaster. This is not unique to Africa, it is the class structure setup throughout the nations. The USA military is treated like 1st class citizens. Try to live in those host nations without being in the military, and you immediately join the 3rd class. Like I said, this is not unique to Africa - it happens all over, even here in the USA. Protectionism is real.
As an African in Europe, I feel very sad and shocking. I think the current President of Tanzania Suhulu is a sell out and traitor because she seem to have deviated completely from the ideologies, principles, strategies, and policies of the late charismatic and visionary leader Dr.John Pombe Magufuli.
I hope Tanzania never accepts our western women ways.
Wow I'm surprised she's from Jamaica 🇯🇲 most Africans love Jamaicans
11:00 He asked her to put on something more modest so that his girlfriend wouldn't think there was anything going on behind her back. That's all
😮😮😮😮😮😮 nooo as Jamaican I feel bad to know she’s a Jamaican. I would think Americans would have a hard time assimilating to Africa because they are from a first world country.
Her parents are from Jamaica, but she is Westernized because she has lived most of her life in the United States. So technically, she’s not any different from Americans. Hence, she’s a single mother with a small toddler traveling to more traditional countries .
I use to have an interest in vacationing to Africa. Not after hearing all the troubles and dislikes so called black Americans encounter by Africans. No welcome mat their for us.
Those who have the most problems are those who made little or no plans,and have very little money.
It's what I have been preaching for the last 10 years. These disparaging videos about Africa are beginning to take their toll. The problem becomes, when Africans are fed up that's it. Tanzania is done with you. For better or for worse.
I guess living in denial can be a real panacea? A healthy dose of truth can be good for everyone over being narrowedminded and petty!
@@FactsOnlyPlease. Go on then. Be real and all that and see what you get? You will be thrown out. Without ceremony.
Being a black american doesnt mean that you must stay in the country illigaly. if a Tanzanian moves to USA he or she must be there ligaly
She wouldn't complain about any European country she would gladly wait for 20 Hours and smile and make positive videos smh.
Out brothers and sisters from the diaspora. must be welcome anywhere on the continent. Shame on you for frustrating them.....lets embrace them to feel st home. This is bad.
My cousin is happy there
Their attitude and mentality is the same reason they lose in America….No matter where you go in the world you have to take you with you so don’t blame any of the countries in Africa for your flawed black American mentality and character.
Suggestion for the young woman: Try going to San Salvador, Bahia, Brazil. Another destination you may want to travel to is the African Columbian parts of Columbia.
My brither you haven't really answered the young ladies concerns. I want to know how come those other people who do not look like us can fit in and why do you not answer any concerns my brother. You deviating from the point my brother. Why you keep the White's, Chinese, Indians there and you give the African Americans a hard time where immigration is concern. Etc
In the scriptures God told the tribe of Judah and Israel not to go to Africa for it is written it will not be a good out come!
Whether it's in your own country or a foreign country, nobody likes to be treated as a second-class person, and unfairly, I can only imagine what our ancestors went through themselves. Trust me, it hurts. I have experienced unfair treatment and racism myself countless times as an expat in other countries. But you cannot show your weakness by shedding tears; it'll embolden the actors. Someone who treats you with contempt or unfairly will continue to do so until you stand up against them and draw a line in the sand! However, one thing I knew for sure was that I had to stand up for myself and fight. I learned from my past mistakes and made sure that before I went somewhere, I did my research and knew my rights with respect to the country's population and culture.
Evans sure doing a good job same here with me we want them to come back to mother land oh yes good advice !!! Yes we feel for them , but they have been always adviced but not to compare America but to come and adopt of which is it will make life very easy wiah all the best for our African American brothers and sisters all of them not to be discouraged, but keep on pushing on and finally you will settle and every thing gonna be alright
This particular lady has a serious Behavioural issues. She is complaining about Tanzania . She did the same thing in Ghana when she first arrived. She complained about Ghana too. If you can't adjust to other peoples culture , norm, and laws, you would be better off going back to your country. No country will change their laws for you.
Just because we are from America doesn't mean we are rich. T😢he majority are leaving and just living from their retirement. Which isn't much. If we can't get the same price as a local, why come? That's an issue we don't have to deal with anywhere else. Also keep in mind the cost of living in America is ridiculously high. So you overcharge people trying to escape it, lbvvs
What you are daying is truly important and legitimate
@evans_from_KE Hey, I'm trying to get my family to move to kenya, but it looks like equality doesn't exist anywhere in these last days.
learn the local language and befriend the locals and you might not have as many issues with being overcharged. stop crying about this stuff.
also the way the local behave with us diaspora and how the behave with the YT just shocked me they don't overcharged them based on what i have seen!!!!
@gregoryleury5632 Did you know that when it comes to over pricing of it is not done to only African Americans? they overprice Nigerians, Congolese or wherever else you come from in the world or even a locals with different looks. Hustlers are every where in the world so figure them out and know how to deal with them. when you decide to live somewhere keep an open mind, learn local language, make friends, too many people eager to run on RUclips for clout, attention, money than taking time to getting to know, understand people and mitigate issues. The smart ones have found a way around and actually enjoying Africa without complain just like how some Africans enjoying the US without complain. If you want to enjoy Africa and integrate don't only watch more of the negatives stories also watch the positive ones ,it would help you how to move
You should tag all creators in this video
Good judgment from both African American lady and the African man
