Us Africans need to start telling our own part of the story. I was born in the Republic of Congo and many slaves of that part were taken to Brazil and the Caribbean, our ancestors didn’t tell us about a Trade between Europe and Africa, but rather a capture campaign that took our loved ones. But all over the world even in our own schools back home they’re still teaching the perpetrator’s version of event. This needs to change.
Please tell it, I am speaking from the point of view (POV) of a Diaspora Israelite aka black man. Lately in my life while hearing and seeing our peoples struggles on here or in the news, "our greatest wealth is each other" I mean, we all we got.
This is a POWERFUL documentary. Our heritage is the World. We are in the Museums more than any other nationality, always being studied, world Leaders always in meeting about us, but the majority of us can't see the God Spirit in us-uniting as one mind and body.
When I was younger growing up, I use to hear the old people, singing like that in Jamaica. For what I can see black people are the same regardless of the different language they speak, bless up my African brothers and sisters. Love u all.
so proud of dis documentary, as a jamaican/gullah/afrikan rastaman born inna north (baltimore) and raised inna souf (atlanta) I feel so seen. dis documentary touched on alla right spots and yall contacted alla right people and went alla right places. I think most black people inna U.S. rn could benefit from watchin dis. especially with da cultural erasure goin on and all da attempts to disconnect us from our ancestas and afrika. da connection is undeniable. dis documentary told our story how it should be told, from da root to da fruit.. with no interruption or interference by colonial perspectives. I'm not sure who exactly was behind dis whole ting but dis was definitely created with Afrikan people's interest in mind. our story, told by us. dis is a vital cultural artifact fa us as a people. I'm glad da stigmatization is fading and we finally recognize dat we not wrong, stupid or backwards, we jus afrikan. and we rememba who we is and where we from. original people from da original land. and even tho we dont all kno our original names and where we originally come from, we clearly aint forgot who we is! so proud of dis documentary and so proud to be afrikan. my ancestas wunt no slaves, we was warriors, we was nobles and before allat, we was what we is today - afrikan. even with all we been thru I wouldnt change being afrikan out fa NOTHING.. slavery and all, racism and all, I am what I am today bcuz my ancestas was before. they was proud, honorable, dignified, strong beyond strong, resilient, tenacious and unbreakable!! and to think.. we went thru ALLAT?? AND I'M STILL HERE???? what CANT I do?? FAIL. I cant express enough how perfect dis documentary is.. obadele kambon was a perfect addition too! and a NEEDED addition! when I seen him I KNEW what typa time yall was on. fa da people, by da people. abibifahodie. abibitumi. FOREVAAAAAAAA!!!! ASE'OOOOO!! 🔴⚫🟢 - side note: da pebble tapping at 51:49 brought me back to high school lunch tables and people who would beat with their hands and pencils. da rhythyms dey'd make was always INSANEEEE and ofc we always knew da riddim came from afrika (cuz who else hittin like us?) but to SEE it is a beautiful confirmation and connection. - I go on and on bout dis. but all Imma say is thank yall. mi a give NUFF thanks fi unnu. medaase paa!! keep up da amazing work. AFRIKA TO DI WORLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!
Just come across this channel and WOW, i wish that i was taught this black history in school in England. I hated history in school, i just couldn't relate to it. This is food to my soul...learning about black history.
In Trinidad and Tobago there is a type of music which derived from Calypso called ex-tempo. Two singers are telling one after the other insulting things in song but in a jovial way. It’s so interesting how cultures travels
Объединитесь против чего? Или за что? Мир содрогнется от страха? То есть ты сам так сильно боишься мира и не согласен с сегодняшним собой и своим проявлением, что живёшь прошлым? Кто ты сейчас? Почему столько гнева и боли в тебе? Ты будешь счастлив если тебя, наконец-то, будут бояться?
I enjoyed this documentary and discovered my instructor Akosua Adoma Perbi from when I went to study History as an International student back in 2004. Thank you for Blessing me and the world with this Knowledge
Thank you for this truthful and powerful documentary about our ancestors. We are the most resilient ,strong and beautiful people in the world. We are God's children. We always arise from every thing placed on us by our opressors. We are one of a kind. ORIGINAL!!! AGAIN I thank you. GOD BLESS YOU!!!
We are influencers all over the world! We are home, let's go home. When I am in Senegal, I feel at home and no I do not blame Africans for what happened to us! They did not have a choice. Place the blame where it belongs!, let's heal Black African people! We are a great. You cannot take Africa out of me!

The Term Migrate when it relates to Black Communities from all over America Moving from 1 space to another in the Same Country is just that > Moved Not Migrated.

I have wondered where bobbing and weaving of the head by AA women came from and then I visited Ghana in 2007 and saw it, but in a different context. I went to an open air vegetable market and on my way there I saw women with baskets on their heads who had stopped and were having a conversation. They were balancing baskets on their heads and bobbed and weaved to accomplish this as they talked. I had seen the same thing in the Caribbean.
It's a typical depiction of Cesare Borgia and was used as propaganda. Y'all have been seeing this propaganda picture for hundreds of years and still either think it is "white Jesus" or get angered and triggered because it is a "white Jesus" 🤦♀️ On a deeper level, we're commanded not to make any graven images or the likeness of anything that is in heaven. The last I checked, our Savior Messiah ascended and sits at the right hand of the Father, so a "black Jesus" picture is not the way to go as well. Btw....his T-shirt also has the words "Original Gangsta" written under the picture. Think objectively, research, and do better.
When I hear Africans reference the slave industry, my heart swells with love and saddness because it implies that they grieve the absense of us, the kidnapped and enslaved.
That gesture the unspoken word that sound like whistling when talking to someone is not only used in western Africa it is used all over Africa by us black Africans I'm from south Africa we use it more often to cancel what someone is telling you
"Oona", in geechee, & "unuh" in jamaican patois, means "you all/yall". Real old school geechee def has more caribbean flavor than american. Great documentary!
45:42 As children growing up in Trinidad & Tobago, watching adults "cut-eye" (especially those in authority)...or "steupsing" (sucking one's teeth) at them would guarantee you a sound "cut-arse" back in the day.

Please stop saying the slaves, they weren’t slaves, they become slaves not by choice, by force. We should stop using the word Africa , it’s Alkebulan meaning the motherland and garden of Eden. ❤

Please understand that the Africans hand's are not clean regarding the criminal part's of Africa's involvement in the trans atlantic slave trade ! I believe that Africa should pay land reparations to the Diaspora families for Africa's part helping the European's to kidnappings and their abandonments of the many kidnapped Africans families. This forgotten and evil act stole the inheritance of the many Diaspora Africans Slaves and should be restored
Im sorry to burst your bubble,im from Louisiana and blues did start from west africa and its big in Morocco..we just modernized it to a different newer form..as each generation does with music when you listen to the basics
That’s right Foundational Black American, don’t have a relative in Africa, never been there, and most FBAS don’t look like Africans because we are our own nation.
Yes but America belongs to everyone and that’s where there confusion lies because you are being pushed to the bottom of everything unfortunately, whereas in Africa and the Caribbean they can claim these countries for themselves.
Oooh yes, look up Kinka by the Ewes from Ghana, Togo, Benin, and Fo from Nigeria including some Senegalese rhythm, Malian rhymes. A lot of these were brought mostly from west Africa by the enslaved. It brings tears to my eyes when l hear Grandma sings.
Green couch show: my gggreat grandfather was from the Republic of the Congo Scipio Smyly( Smiley). born 1770 lived to be 123 years old. Nancy Smiley Dewalt 3x great grandmother.
Many Africans from the Kingdom of the Kongo have been Christian since the 1300s. Many were brought to the America's. The Stono Rebellion is also called the Kongo Uprising.
That is not true, history shows that Christianity first spread to North East Africa before it took root in Western Europe. It was a different Christianity than that of Europe because of the African culture.
When it comes to our people that endured captivity in the diaspora or colonialism in Africa, our full names were our first name given by our parents, followed by son of or daughter of ( bin, or bat) then it would end in either of our parents first name. For example, Yeshua bin Miriam or Yeshua bin Yosef, or Solomon bin David, etc. Yeshua bin Miriam we know now as JESUS SON OF MARY.
the first Africans taken out was in the 13th century when Portugal sent 600 orphans to one of the islands of Africa. These weer the black Jews. This began taking of Africans to Brazil and the development of the Atlantic Slave Trade.....when Europeans saw how the Arabs conducted slave trains out of Africa they too wanted their share.
Your family tell you who you are not a foreigner or a person don't know nothing about your family history. Africans need to worry about their own roots.
So what is to happen to all present day survivals of African families who participated in the "slave trade"...???... "THE CURSE OF SLAVERY"...!!!😮😮😮 Some say... "Ebola" Tinubu of Nigeria stems from such a family .. !!!! 😮
@willie No music not anything modern and by modern I mean from the 1900s and beyond comes from Africa all music genres were created in America by Black African Americans. Idk why people keep trying to steal Black American culture………… please explain?
Why in God’s green Earth is the tour guide wearing that abominable tee shirt? I almost not want to watch this video, we need to pray for that young man, and our people overall.
This language black people are speaking here in America is The White Man's language England British European so stop making fun at the way we talk play beating strapless down not to talk our own language now we don't even know it some of us is trying to retrieve it how you like that one
No...we do not talk [BLACK] at America because we are not [NEGRO BLACK COLORED AFRICAN AMERICANS]. We have the nationality by blood, by birth, and by inheritance. We are original indigenous ancient Moors. We are Moorish Americans. Peace.
Us Africans need to start telling our own part of the story. I was born in the Republic of Congo and many slaves of that part were taken to Brazil and the Caribbean, our ancestors didn’t tell us about a Trade between Europe and Africa, but rather a capture campaign that took our loved ones. But all over the world even in our own schools back home they’re still teaching the perpetrator’s version of event. This needs to change.
