The irony in this video. An indian man claiming that his ancestors were robbed off of 'THEIR' possessions and yet they're doing that or worse to African students today in India. #AfricaForAfricans
Quraysh, you need to pull your head out of the sand (no pun intended!), and read the actual facts of how indians treat Afrikan university students who have (mistakenly) tried studying there.
@JimboParadox Yes that's true (about Ugandans throwing out Indians before their was even a presence of Africans in India) however they were thrown out because of how they treated the Natives.
How are the Indians and the Arabs are saying about exploitation of the Bantus? It is true that there is mismanagement in Africa. I would like to see Indians and Arabs come up with a different economic model which associates their black counterparts. It is not enough for them to be saying "You cannot teach ..."
Funny they don't mention a local African,,,, a Tanzanian, a Kenyan, Ugandan, Eastern Congolese, Somalian, Zambian,,,, at all who in any case was there before them
@@thestealth2448 where did u hear that stop the hate bruh how come people in Somalia weren’t sold but your country man was sold. Look in the mirror you are the problem because ya sold ya own community now u want put that blame on other people. For your information Somalis are nomadic n u need another human being to heard your camel.
I was there for the music festival Sauti Za Busara which was wonderful. Very privileged to stay with local people in an out of the way village, the house had no running water but there was a personal fumigator for really good quality incense to waft up your djellabah as you stood over it- literally perfume (per fume - by smoke).
Cheaply made and re-edited report on Zanzibar. Also very angled in its approach, without even touching on the history and sentiments of the union loyalists. Extremely shallow reporting, that in no way whatsoever delves into explaining matters concerning the rifts among Zanzibaris on both sides of the divide, but instead leaves viewers believing its up to simple ethnicity/race... Sad Al Jazeera made this film feel so wasted as well as being so biased and mainstream in its report on beautiful, unique and historical Zanzibar :(
Minority Arabs and Indians trying to hang on to shameful past instead reinventing themselves for instance. What is gone is gone with the wind. Yes hogwash. Total waste of my time. Lousy journalism too !
@@wnalikka arabs.. persians.. and indians are the ones who established and made the glory of zanzibar. they gave it even its name. so calm down.. jun*lem*nkies
@@wnalikka its gone, yes, and the way a nasty Ugandan communist made it go away is nowadays called genocide. Funny, how Africans always try to shame the world about enslavement and/or persecution of Africans and make the world not forget it but when Africans do it themselves they want it to left in the past. Calm yourself down Zanzibar is only known because of Indians, Arabs and Persians.
In 1698, Zanzibar became part of the overseas holdings of Oman after Saif bin Sultan, the Imam of Oman, defeated the Portuguese in Mombasa, in what is now Kenya. In 1832 or 1840, Omani ruler Said bin Sultan moved his court from Muscat to Stone Town on the island of Unguja (that is, Zanzibar Island).
Interesting how the Zanzibaris complain - they can go and live on the mainland, in Dar Es Salaam which offers a much greater range of opportunities for business, education etc. whereas mainland Tanzanians are barred from living and working on Zanzibar unless they have a special permit like a visa. So many things missed in this little video - like the babies with loads of eye makeup and red cord amulets, the very dodgy Italian hoteliers/gay pornographers who refuse access to entire sections of public beaches to local people, the wandering herds of beach cows..... and no I'm not talking about the northern european tourists.
we are one and we must blove each others, tanzania zanzibar only one big love, sports has no color or religion , you come ton our country but u know nothing at all
The guy said it was ethnic cleansing. ethnic cleansing or slave master cleansing? The guy who had the surprise gift, the surprise was he still had slaves. He didn't nor brought the gifts for the lady some people did and he took the credit.
They are working with him didn’t slave them. He doesn’t force them to work with him. He pays money to work with him. He bought the land. Let me till you something there are many Zanzibari work in oman and many of them wish to work in oman.
@JimboParadox It was a freedom struggle the Arabs shouldn't have enslaved Africans and created an apartheid system. Once they were exterminated the slavery stopped and there was no longer an Apartheid system.
The Siddis are Shirazi too, people call the Siddis Zanji that is dark skin South East Asians=dark skin Elamites. The Parthians came to Zanzibar and Tanzania.
Best place to go out on a dhow trip is from one of the villages like Nungwe. Watch out for acid attacks from fundamentalist muslim extremists in Stone Town - make sure you are adequately dressed when in town, no shorts or sleeveless tshirts. There had also been an attack on the Catholic church there a short time before I went.
Omg. This lines up with what I was just told from an Indian who's family lived here for quite a while. Generations and generations. They owned a business and three story house and fled during the revolution except for him and his brother to run the business. He was saying how the arabs were selling slaves (not white men) and that many Indians were persecuted along with civilians during the revolution. It was really interesting! Led me here lol.
It is africa not middle east OR Asian!!!! If you let them into your country that is what happen!!!!there is more manupulation of arabisation movement underlining the so call independance!!! kenya and tanzania leaders must be very careful and wake up!! the golf countries can finance unstability in this regions!!!
Quraysh, how can you "found" a land and people who are already there? - You are afflicted with grand delusions. Christopher Columbus must be a real hero to you!
Tino ricky zagor arab builds Zanzibar it’s was nothing before arab. Omani expelled the Portuguese from your land. Your identity is arab your language, songs, clothes, food everything. Look arab left your island and living better live than yours. You wish to live like them.
@@noorsur1 you Arab manipulators, this land is ours not yours, you may have built it but it's ours, you are causing instability among Tanzanians so you can rule Zanzibarians like you want, let me tell you, we will ramp you up in the streets with machetes if you continue poisoning us to divide
josam eneza mmbuji lol you made laugh, you lost everything and we won, your people want to come to oman for working with us, if we think like you we have to return all Zanzibars from oman to your country, omani built your country, look what happened to your island after arab left it! Oman invested your land while you living there without working your brain, we thank Allah we live in a peaceful country. Don’t worry will not come to your land but and ask your people to stop traveling to oman.
Zanzibar couldnt enter into a union with Tanzania. Zanzibar and Tanganyika through a union formed TANZANIA. And to be clear, we arent very happy with the union here on the mainland either.
we should split up, and let them rule them selves, and see how that prophecy of Mwl JK Nyerere comes to life, Zanzibar will suffer to their knees, most of them demand freedom but they don't know what will happen after that freedom, Zanzibar is fragile without us
how she saying the dalla dalla = bus, is the only source of transport , theres taxis , bikes you can pay to get on the back to travel cmon you just choice the cheapest and uncomfortable option but is all for the experience lol hahaha
Who are natives? And where were they from? If u really know history, u are talking bullshit. All slaves in Zanzibar were brought by big African tribes. Arabs, Indians, Persians were just buying them from their fellow africans. Many family even african families owned slave not only Arabs.
this woman's voice is unbearable! i feel like i'm watching a bbc gsce language guide from 1992. the tone and intonation. so stiff. and overly formal. and un na tu ral. this is YT. people want realness. not this old school journalism by numbers newscaster fakeness...
Is not true this because Zanzibar got into union it self while it was republic and it had it's chair in united nations so nothing is new if the Zanzibar will remain in it's status
thank you Aljazeera, I love this programme as it allowed me to view places I never heard of before!!! Zansibar is now on my list of places to visit..
you are welcome
Later day occupier and slave trader is complaining and crying out when his victims descendants claim back what was ruthlessly snatched from them
I'm adding Zanzibar to my bucket list. The food, the people, and the culture is amazing!!
My grandfather leeft my mom and my aunt alots of lands in Zanzibar Nice to know my heritage
Al Jazeera trying to insinuate Zanzibar is an Arabic island, chill, Said Seyyid conquered the Island in the forth Island and colonialization is over.

How are Somalis, Congolese and Ugandans locals when they live several miles away? The Somalis were in fact part of the slave trade.
Frank Gallagher I also heard Somalis participated in the slave trade

How sultan from 🇴🇲 Oman Arabs gave this man land in Africa
In 1698, Zanzibar became part of the overseas holdings of Oman after Saif bin Sultan, the Imam of Oman, defeated the Portuguese in Mombasa, in what is now Kenya. In 1832 or 1840, Omani ruler Said bin Sultan moved his court from Muscat to Stone Town on the island of Unguja (that is, Zanzibar Island).
This is a perfect example of how not to practice video journalism. I am truly disappointed in Al Jazeera for publishing this.
ki*s the priest's bu**..
Zanzibar seems has some similarities in term of culture with Malaysia/Indonesia.
This video is not about food at all.

asking an arab how he got that plantation land. lol.
lol. his ancestors stole it. shhhh!
+Bantu Force What's your beef with Somalia?
what about the lands that europeans stole and are continuing to steal

The guy who had the surprise gift, the surprise was he still had slaves. He didn't nor brought the gifts for the lady some people did and he took the credit.
Quraysh - good luck with that line of reasoning!
They are working with him didn’t slave them. He doesn’t force them to work with him. He pays money to work with him. He bought the land. Let me till you something there are many Zanzibari work in oman and many of them wish to work in oman.

"But sympathetic slave owners?"
"Of course!"
