    Man this was a very rewarding and emotional roller coaster low key. I'm glad to be sharing this intimate moment with ya'll. It's crazy all of the stuff my ancestors went through. I'm thankful for everyone who paid the ultimate price for me to be here today and have some of the luxuries that I do. WOW. The next step is for me to reconnect with my people.

      You are eligible for citizenship in Sierra Leone. The process is very easy but it does require a trip to Freetown. If you would like to know how to go about, I can provide you with the necessary info.
      I went to Freetown earlier this year. The people were amazing and the beaches are stunning.

      I figured the order experience would be that way. Bc I’m like - I’ve been wanting this test going on like 5 years now and bc it’s so pricey, I’ve tried to prequalify with Affirm. I was like Affirm always approves me no matter what but with the African Ancestry website...NOPE! Fast forward to 2021, Affirm is approving me NO PROBLEM 😉 with any and everything else but when I try to use it for AA, NOPE AGAIN AND AGAIN. So I feel like this company is facetious. I feel like they greedy. I feel like they don’t wanna give ppl a break. As far as I know, they’ve never had a 50% off sale or no coupon/discount code...NOTHING. And I don’t like that crap when black ppl are involved.

      One of the things we have to take into consideration is the "Berlin Conference 1884". Europe divided Africa among themselves, cut it up into what it is today. There was no Senegal, Ghana, Nigeria etc.. Those demarcation lines, borders didn't exist. It was kingdoms. And they did migrate and marry into onto tribes.

      I am not sure whether or not the Mende people he is talking about are the same as the Mande people. The Mande is the original name of Mali, which became an empire covering most of West Africa. A Mali emperor called Mansa Abubakar II saled to the Americas in the early 14th century, aroun 1304. His successor , Mansa Musa, is better known by people because of his pilgrimage to Mecca and the gold his distributed throughout his journey.
      Some historians claim that Mansa Bukary II and his crew made it to the Americas. They say that Christopher Columbus actually found some black men in the West Indies. If this is true, his ancestry might not be only from the salve trade. However, I admit that the slave trade brought more people to the Americas than the 2 thousand exploration boats of Mansa Bukary II did.

      They were captured by other Africans or Muslims and sold to the Europeans who took them to America.

The French should return every penny of that money.

    Love your videos man! My test should be here any day now! Sent mine in September 12th. I only bought the matriclan test. Definitely plan on buying the paternal test soon. My mom is from LA but most of her family is from the south. Louisiana and Mississippi. And my dad and Abuelo are from Cuba. My Abuelo’s parents are from Jamaica so definitely excited to see my results. With everything going on in the world rn affecting our brothers and sisters made me want to dig deep in my African ancestry! They don’t want us to know who we are! It’s up to us in order to find out✊🏾✊🏿💯💯💯

We could say an African people who went out of Africa settled the mid east , sat about 100,000 years , built the Arabia Nubia Complex, then come back in waves . Obviously all the way west . Same population was indeed on Giza plateau . I'm talking about a time period prior to 6,000 years , everyone was various types of African we might say .

When we continue to describe our land as the name of the colonizers, we agree and fall in line with them.
