I love to hear her talk. Her voice is very relaxing.
Me too.. it has the sound of an old southern sound . It's very relaxing. I love the way she sounds
Yes absolutely! His voice is annoying however
Oh my goodness, I was just thinking that and then I saw your comment.
I feel like I'm sitting at my grandma's knee while she's telling a story. This is so impactful.
I’ve been reading about my history for over 40 years and some of these historical moments I never heard of. Thank you for making this available.
As a Somali that grew up in America much respect to you, your family, and ancestors. There’s a few bad apples amongst us African immigrants that are ignorant to your trials and tribulations but I’m well versed. Very strong and resilient people you all are, forever indebted to your community for fighting for us Africans to even be able to immigrate when you had more than enough of your own problems. Much love!
Excellent! Can't stop watching videos from this group!
Ante bellum. Before the goodness. This was a culturally nutritious ❤ video that I will watch again.
Never Forget...
I love the very detailed and descriptive nature of this talk. It goes past the basics that we've all heard thousands of times before.
Thanks for sharing this historical information
That music at the beginning is DOPE.
Like it makes you really feel the subject.
I'm proud of my Haitians ancestors who took their responsibility to end slavery in the island. Unfortunately, the Haitians revolution didn't recognize by the conquerors we had to pay to be let free.
I bet they want to try that stuff now
Greetings from Canada. Thank you for all your hard work!
Its a shame we had to deal with the enemy's Oppression and inferiority treatment by Europeans and French, but our very own people were the House Rats (Snitches). I tell ya, we are our worst enemy when it comes to Liberation and Revolution, and you wonder why we as a people can not Unite til this day. Keep a eye on your enemy, but a closer eye on your Brethrens.
I agree. Even now we allow trivial things like complexion and hair texture to divide us.
Yes....
My spirit tells me these two are with the ancestors now, i thank you I love you and now, your spirit of telling the sojourn of our people lives in me.
Salute ❤
Where ever there has been slavery..... There has been resistance ✊🏿🗡️⚔️🛡️⛏️
I feel sorry for Slavery But African people sold out there own people Blacks sold Blacks
400 years later we still slaves ✊🏿🗣I can't breathe
@@janet.oboutte1349 What was the point of that statement? Like how every other group has sold their own?
@proudseeker4814 shut your goofy racist Azz up u sorry piece of gutter trash! 😅 u are just upset because it hurts your 4 inch ego that blacks had enough and fought back. What's the matter? It hurts u so much that black people broke code and fought back?? 😅 go back u Europe, and even they don't like u.
WHAT IS THIS ELDERS NAME, PLEASE?....SHE IS VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE. I WANNA SEE EVERYTHING SHE HAS DONE.
Her name is Florida Yeldell. She was a wonderful professor and historian. She has a whole series of African American History in the Lowcountry videos on this channel. (They have a playlist.) If you want to know more about her as a person, here's an interview we did with her: ruclips.net/video/63_BSmJzdrQ/видео.html
There's also a shorter, updated excerpt we made when she won Woman of the Year in Georgetown County: ruclips.net/video/mXrhoCJOqhI/видео.html.
Think you for our roots love y’all mother 🙏🏾❤️
Our black peoples is some powerful people s
Yes we arr
You say Aficans were noble kings and journey men.. so when we say that we already were here and settled, why you can't understand that we were here for thousands of years so that makes us indigenous to this land..
John. I tell people that but they think I'm crazy. Only about 300,000 slaves were brought to America.
The last statement disagrees from the first part of the paragraph..........
300 K directly from Afrika. How many came from the Caribbean?!! Why didn't we evacuate from the areas the euros were taking over????
Never say most slaves were indigenous to America
When they talk about the indigenous they aren't talking about U.S. born slaves. They're referring to those indigenous to Africa in Africa & those brought here.
No because the enslaved people came from Africa! The indigenous argument is cointelpro 2.0
@@terribethreed8464 and she said not to refer to our Ancestors as slavesm they were African descendants who were ENslaved.
What's the problem?
Native Americans like to pretend they weren't enslaved or that the 5 civilized tribes sold out all the other tribes and aided in their declassification as tribes. They dont talk about how all the Eastern nations were reclassified as "negros" because they were darker in complexion than those out west. These tribes were quickly absorbed into the African population.
When the enslavement of the American indigenous ended in the south in continued outwest well into the 1800s.
Most of those in the 5 civilized tribes do not even consider Mexicans as brothers and sisters even though their have the highest amount of Native American ancestry outside of the reservations (which were originally plantations)
@@TheRealElBo they don't come from Africa. The Africa argument is false news.
They knew and they was trying to go where the free people at...
Is that dr sebi
No.
Someone send a link to Kanye
They poisoned the masters 🤣🤣🤣🤣
And a lot more sabatoge for our liberation. Our Ancestors RESISTED.
Reverend Stovall my great grandfather
Really?
Eh. I am pretty well read in African, European, and American history and I do sense some White bias in her narrative. Also she did not mention Dessalines in the Haitian Revolution, which is a major important part of the Haitian Revolution not Toussaint in my opinion. Though there were some Africans that were in the enslaving of other African nations Portuguese, Arabs, Spanairds, English also set up in African giving payment to these people. So nothing is without the hands of these others. I understand she cannot mention all things in this extention of history but I do sense some political correct bias.
I don't.
And I don't see what you're saying. She's talking about African RESISTANCE toward their enslavement by the wite man.
Why do you think she's whitewashing history?
@@missshannon9790 I agree with you completely. I feel like she's staying on track with the story. I feel like she's talking more in depth about these instances that we haven't been taught, or isn't as widely known. So to me, personally, I feel like she's removed the "whitewashed" version of these histories that we've known.
@@mariahray4666 yes yes.
I appreciate your perspective
@@missshannon9790 anytime
For failure of mentioning the Haitian revolution but not the Black Seminoles!
Its black American history not Haitian history gosh🤨
@@Loveamericasave no, it's about BLACK LIBERATION. the Haitian Revolution is something Black People need to study and know. We can learn from the Haitian Revolution.
And i suspect you are not Black. Correct?
I agree w/ Miss Shannon. They aren't mentioning anything about Seminoles not because there is anything against them. I just learned about 2 months ago about the crap that the Seminoles went through as well. Like I commented under someone else's post. We need to know all HISTORY and not just what America is shoving down our children throats. They aren't being told the entire truth so now we must step in and fill in those gaps. Share any links pertaining to the Black Seminoles. I would love to learn more about them as well.
@@missshannon9790 yeah but that's Haitian History Black Seminoles is American Indian history or Freedman History.
I'm enlightened. She also read well but the gentleman is not so good at reading aloud
Wow, you mean he does not sound European enough. The Gullah Geechee are a treasure
. I am happy African linguistic patterns still manifest in their speech.
These people seem to be telling black history that makes the whites feel good.
the problem is people get their history lesson from hollywood ... please do some research before opening your mouth & showing people how uneducated you are
that fucking cough sound at min 14:01 creeps the fuck out of me
DOES PROFANITY DEFINE YOU?
Trolls are scary people who are insecure and gealous. Sad, scary, despicable people 👀
Indian
Because black and African American is a misnomer these are American Indians and Europeans Indians the poor went to war against the rich the rich is spiritually
I feel so sorry about the slaves But African people sold out there own people Blacks sold Blacks And why blame them Cause they are gone. So you people need to stop blaming my people Africa was the Problem
Foh!! Y'all to blame too.. Ignorance of the law doesnt exempt u from it.. Ur comment is ethically irresponsible and u need to do more research because chattel slavery as we know it was created, maintained and sustained by EUROPEANS the world alike
They most certainly did not sell out "their own." In general, slaves were obtained from chieftains, kings, and merchants that sold captured warriors and prisoners from *rival* states, or convicted criminals who were already in bondage as a form of punishment. They definitely would not have sold people captured from their own polity, as that would be counter-intuitive to maintaining power in their region of influence. A Wolof or Fulani person would have felt no kinship towards a Bambara, Hausa, Mossi, or Igbo. Saying black people sold "their own" in the slave trade is like saying Germany attacked "their own" when they invaded France in WWI. Statements like these are only made out of ignorance of the diversity and sophistication of Africa at the time and a desire to lump people from the same continent together to shift the blame of slavery from Europeans (whose institution of slavery was far more barbaric in almost every sense) back onto the Africans themselves as though modern blacks should feel guilty for their own plight or something. And besides, no one's "blaming" anyone, this program is just acknowledging the realities of chattel slavery. You're just projecting your own insecurities.
Always has to be someone with this ignorant ass comment 🙄🙄
Africans sold the israelites
What race / group of ppl hasn't taken a turn on the indentured or enslaved wheel ? 🤔 I agree , ppl need to quit blaming this that and everything else , learn from the past and try putting effort to better the here n now for future generations . Probably going to get slack for my thoughts but ehhh not losing sleep here 😉🤣
