They were independent since 1966, they just became a republic and ditched the monarchy.
sounds like what is happening to palestine. This gives me hope
Yes brother 100% right. Kashmir n palestine r stil colonies.
Yes we Balochistanis and kashmiris in pakistan still colonies

Where ever the european settlers went, they wiped out the natives from the area. This is not only the story of Barbados.
Bantu have done the same in Africa to the other ethnic groups. Just look at what happened in Botswana or the Congo.
Barbados was an uninhabited island when the Transatlantic Slave Trade arrived.
@@AirWindFireit wasn't. Please do your research
The Aftermath of colonial era slavery has also left damaging effects on the mental & emotional health of many former enslaved and indentured peoples across the globe. Those families currently whose wealth is tied to slavery and indentured servitude should pay either reparations or compensation for lost wages.
@Mickey Mouse Its funny how it's only people in the Atlantic slave trade who think this way.
People today have never lived through slavery though,whites were sold into the slave trade too,so why all this 'us black peope' thing all of a sudden,thought we were all brothers and sisters? If your gona go after me what for my great,great, great grandad done we ain't friends any more are we?
@World Peace “that obsessed Queen”… as an English Barbadian, what?
@World Peace You’re just talking nonsense. You speak like you know these people. Get grip of reality.
Long live Barbados,amen.Congrats a million!❤❤❤💪💪💪✌✌✌🤲🤲🤲
The queen knows everything that happened.
She is not God.
They were many countries colonised by the British gained independence. But many still adore their colonial master and still using English as their official language. After more than 50 years independence many still believe only the British and English will make their countries successful. Sound weird but it is the reality. They were able to free their countries from physical colonisation but remain colonised mentally.
kashmir will be unoccupied state one day
Sure, Pakistan can't keep occupying parts of kashmir forever.
Balochistan need freedom pakistn cannot hold us much longer, you have given our land to china , one day allah will help us
Congratulations to Barbados 🇧🇧
at the same time of this torture, england tells the world about how to be civilised
Britain was the first to oppose slavery. That was most unusual for the time. Most other societies were more than happy for the practice to continue and in parts of Africa it is still going on.. King of Benin opposed the end of slavery.
@@grahamt5924 whitewash of cruelty British empire
@@haswanazri2159 whatever
@Black Sparrow Ah, slavery was a small part of it, but it ended up costing loads also. It was more of a burden than a help in my opinion. Read Thomas Sowell books on slavery if you actually want to learn something.
@Black Sparrow 😆 🤣 Thomas Sowell is not European. Anyway, if you want to live in your fantasy world about slavery, why not
If Barbados had fabulous resources, Britain would fight tooth and nail to keep it?
Yep, certainly.
My sincere congratulations 🎊!!! Best wishes that Barbados thrive with a government of and for the people!!!
It's mind boggling that this just happened now. Barbados should of been set free long long time ago.
it was always their decision
@@Tullzter No it was not. The dumb things white guilt makes you say sometimes...
@@oldmanjesus9855 i dont feel guilty
Oh gosh its symbolic. The island has been independent since 1966
@@oldmanjesus9855 he's a Hindu Indian, not a white person
Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high, Where knowledge is free, Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls. Where words come out from the depth of truth, Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection, Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way. Into the dreary desert sand of dead habit.
Where the mind is led forward by thee
Into ever-widening thought and action
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake!
A country is a way of creating an artificial wall to separate people and defend them from the foreigners
Becoming a Republic it's a symbolic issue, Barbados was already independent since 1966 and they shared same independence status as Canada, Australia and other crown realms the only difference was their head of state was still Queen Elizabeth II and she was a ceremonial Head, most of the executive powers were under the Barbados government.
The only difference with Austalia, Canada and Barbados is the ethnic make up of those countries and hence the veiw of the people is different in each one.
@@grahamt5924 I think since majority of Barbados is of afro-decent, people tend to think they were still under some sort of colonialism
@@k_sam exactly
Thank you for giving Barbados its props!
Crime against humanity not simply darkest days
It's good but the question is: are the local elites less or more corrupt than the colonial power?
Post-colonialism is painful
Good question!
Barbados has been getting less corrupt while the UK has been getting more corrupt, according to the CPI. They’re around the same right now, though.
@@ayadhyistwe are on the brink of corruption
OTTOMANS DID THE SOME DIFFRENCE THEY GOT DEFEATED
AND MANY NATIONS GOT THERE FREEDOM AGAIN BLESS THE PEOPLE AND THE REVOLOUTION OF INDEPENDENCE
@Mickey Mouse Bla bla bla. You don't know the history of the Ottoman Empire then.
Occupation my friend that says it all
@Mickey Mouse do you even know what the purpose of the Crusades were.
@@grahamt5924 are we changing the subject if yes I do know Let me tell what else I know ask the nations that the ottomans occupied for centuries and see how they feel about it or let me put it to you like this let’s have Turkey get occupied for a few hundred years and ask the population how they feel to be free and independent again I’m sure I know the answer if you want to tell me about the crusaders they did wrong as well so 2 wrongs cannot makes things right my friend. No one in this world will tell me invading someone nations is just
@@cliftono.9696 If you have been going to your holy place of worship for hundreds of years and then it is invaded by a foreigner who then says you can't travel there, you suddenly have the reason for a crusade.
Make a videos on ottoman barbary pirates who raided Christian Europe from sicily to Iceland. And enslaved thousands of women and sold her in North African slave market
Ask CNN to do that. They would love to make a very long documentary video about it.
The native all clean up…African race took over Caribbean…I’m telling African people don’t let people take you for a fool that you native be…
1:49 "in 1834, slavery was abolished in Barbados"
But not yet abolished in the ottoman empire and Arab countries until 150 years later lol
There was a bigg difference as to how Arabs treated slaves (as humans) and how Brits treated them (as commodities)
@@kayf_ahmad they were treated worse than animals by Arabs what are u even talking about? You denying history to save your yourself?
@@brojwz2314 Proof?
@@sikandereazam2821 i don think u ever see a slave dining with sultan of ottoman right.that’s exactly what happen we treat slave humanely why bc we cannot treat slave like animal or else we get hell instate of heaven
They call them so called civilized people! Shame on them.
What?
Westerm be like:colonisation was not wrong we colonised them bcz they were weak
that's how every country on the planet was formed
They called it “civilising the barbarians”.
@@porkysharma8423 bah, "civilizing the barbarians".
Which in the reality, some of the 'proclaimed barbarians' has a social system, culture and ancient technology that is much higher than the white colonizers. 🙄🙄🙄
@@kuroyuri04 No offense, but then why did they lose to the Europeans?
Slavery existed for millennia before the Transatlantic Slave Trade. People of all colours and religions (specifically white Christian’s) have been enslaved. People have always dominated other people for gain. I feel very passionate about my mixed Bajan and European ancestry but I wish people could actually educate themselves on the subject before spouting some virtue signalling ignorance.
Bravo Barbados i aploud you, congrats to your finaly independent👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏.Best wishes from Bosnia-Hercegovina 🇧🇦🇧🇦🇧🇦🇧🇦🇧🇦.
They’ve been independent since 1966, this was just for ceremonial purposes.
But as a Caribbean state, it is a 60-year-old bloody tyranny in West Africa that is the country’s chief negotiator in a framework of a parliamentary cooperation with the European Union nowadays. The contempt of the others has only changed its form.
darkest days ? you mean crime against humanity.
God will punish these people for the act
Isaiah 59:18 KJV
According to their deeds, accordingly he will repay, fury to his adversaries, recompence to his enemies; to the islands he will repay recompence.
very good journalism. keep up the good work
In Malaysia the English came n dug our soil for tin mines.... but as one of the Muslims we rebelled n never be the slave..n they said Malays r lazy..of course that are our lands ..why would we work for you.n one of them was killed JWW Birch..my ancestors are strong spiritually n my King the Sultan Abdullah was sent to Sychellles Island
In Indonesia there came Dutch and Portuguese. In Philippines there came Spain.
And what they said to the native is:
"Bow down to the white races the highest and mighty human being choosen by the God."
😒😒😒
Now talk about the brutal ottoman colonial past
Congratulations Barbados's 👌👌👌👌

Peace and Love to Barbados🌴🤝🏽🫒🇲🇦🇺🇸🌏👑 May Love, Truth and Peace reciprocate good to all and in between us 🤝🏽💚
happy independence to Barbados
The viscous act of british specially in the past is now well known
If you only know what they did wrong, you are their enemy.
*Vessel* English shadows will always remain,mark them words.
The people of Barbados was Reclassified as a whole.....BAJAN History goes deeper than Slavery...This is not the Genesis for " Black" Bajans.
They'll suffer for all the attrocites in their colonies , the curse and karma will get them ☮️☮️
Isaiah 59:18 KJV
According to their deeds, accordingly he will repay, fury to his adversaries, recompence to his enemies; to the islands he will repay recompence.
Muslims should thAnked Ottoman and other Muslim empires at that time.
It still in shackles
Barbados is a new nation
I wonder if trt will ever talk about the atrocities that the ottoman turks committed but I'm guessing they won't. That would be too much honesty to expect from them
Brits did divide and rule in India
As hindus supported the brits against the mughals ... then mughal hindustan broke 💔 😢 into pieces and now they can't face china
Mughals were not ruling India when british came. Most of India was under maratha control when british. Punjab region was under sikh control.
Yajuj wa Majuj spreads corruption.
So there's no trace of native culture and people in the Barbados right now?
A pity that Charles didn't talk about Britain's roll in fighting globally to end slavery and talking about those who opposed its end is also very interesting.
My question is, are they still part of the British commonwealth despite of “cutting” ties with the monarchy?
Yes, still part of the commonwealth.
@@grahamt5924 thanks
@@8kmkid568 The only difference is they don't come under the protection of the crown. Britain now no longer has a moral obligation to help them if something happens such as a a hurricane, tsunami or they are invaded by an outside force ect.
@@grahamt5924 that’s interesting, thanks for your answer I appreciate it.
@@8kmkid568 No worries. Countries like Australia retain the Queen because it can be useful to them. From their point of veiw it is purley ceremonial. She can't change laws or influence anything they want to do, but if they where invaded or something terrible happened, Britain becomes legally obligated to help.
Is Barbados still receiving Aid from Britain
But here the question are we better off now I don't think so may god help us all now and for ever more thank you Jesus
I've only heard the phrase "the British done a lot for Barbados " from a bajan😳. Some of their minds are still enslaved in 2022?.
@Black Sniper I don't agree with the statement?. I know what they done to us but I couldn't believe people think they done anything for us except abuse us......some people are still mentally slaves.....I'm not one of them👍🏿
Abolish the labour slavery also from the face of the world its the modern type of slavery prevalent in whole world
It's like getting out of small cage to be a part of a bigger cage
The truth the British doesn’t want to mention
The British is still bullying
it wasn't that bad, other slaveries were much worse than the British.
You are trying to make what britishers did less evil by saying that
@@angelbythewings you already know he's talking about your ancestors
@@angelbythewings nope, slavery was a fact of human life in every society on the planet from day one, the British were the ones who abolished it, for moral reasons, black people should be grateful to them rather than bash them, if it had been anyone else, we'd still have slavery. And having been a British colony to this day positively correlates with GDP and the biggest hellholes are Haitis and Liberias of this world that haven't been colonized.
@@toobalkain nice story, someone with half knowledge will definitely believe it
@@angelbythewings not exactly a historian, are you? Show me where I'm wrong, refute what I said, if you can.
Barbados removing Queen Elizabeth as head of state and Canada should follow !
Turkey has been a longer colonial empire and did much worse slavery than European powers🤨😐😐
Reference? please
@@rashidaquil5284 dont ask for reference, he/she only came here for attention, and now I have also become a part of it 😂😂😂
Don't you understand Difference between Ruling and Colonizing ?
"Ehe" - Anemo archon
Congratulations. No more colonies
BARBADOS is not free get your information correct
This is just one of the examples , there are Several in Queue , since ancient Human civilization . History Start from Roman empire . Britain is started Colonial empire throughout world . Spreading root to U.S. , Canada , Australia and Branches to European countries . Forming Common wealth Countries and law . At Present U.S. is imperialist 😂now in Decline 😂 . Barbados is lucky to break the Shackle but still thorn is there .
Portugal started it, not the British
At least they acknowledge it
Turkey straight up Denies the armenian genocide.
@humans is carbon made They were trading even before Europeans did that. Because in India we have history of buying them especially from the Arabs. They were mostly black Africans especially during Muslim rules.
And instead the fact is, it was Europeans who finally stopped it.
@humans is carbon made ... and Muslim slave trade with black Africans
Whiteman and kids re u watching??? Hope so

First slaves to Barbados were Irish.
Every colonials are brutes.
Yes, especially the Arab and Ottoman ones and the slavery they practiced, castrating all male slaves as an example.
@@hermanspaerman3490 🖕🏿🖕🏿🖕🏿
@@hermanspaerman3490 do you talking about holy greek-roman empire and its vessels across arab sea & mediterranean
Would be good if they changed there names and language too
Congratulations brave people away with colonial trash
I still remembers saying that Arabs should be occupied by Turkey and Iran. Because I thought that Turks were nice to Arabs. And I got replies from Arab not in a nice way. But I learned the history of Turks I found it remarkably same as what British did to India.
Did it mean I hate British?? The answer is no because the thing is they acknowledge their mistakes,their crimes. Though common British still thinks that they helped India by colonizing it.
That makes them different from Turkey.
Who cares? Nobody alive today suffered through it
Isaiah 14:21-22 KJV
Prepare slaughter for his children for the iniquity of their fathers; that they do not rise, nor possess the land, nor fill the face of the world with cities.
They need to get over themselves and move on. Barbados has benefitted immensely under British rule. Stop playing the victim!
The enslaved individuals didn't benefit, but the british government, which is an institution that still exists, did.
