This is 2024. There is no reason Jamaicans should still be so ignorant about what happened to their people. But they are quick to try to tell black Americans about what didn't happen in their country.
@@himsodeep9 some Jamaicans make it their entire identity and even now pushing for tainos , Arawak and Caribs to be included in national census. Perhaps we can find them in Puerto Rico , Central America or Cuba but we know where the overwhelming majority of Jamaicans come from
I’m always creased by black British people who scoff at Americans not knowing where their people come from but then saying their family is from Jamaica or the Caribbean’s. Worse than not knowing is not even being aware of what you don’t know. Slave trade did a doozy on our people.
Sadly, that is only the experience of the poor. Like the song says if knowledge is the key, why do the bigger heads make it not easy for we(the people).
I am listening to your comment regarding our educational system in Jamaica. You might be surprised that it was not so much the British keeping the system in place, but those in what we might refer to as the upper class and a large part of the middle class. The British Government tried for about 90 years to convince Jamaica to change the educational system and our leaders along with ruling class refused. you should read my Terminal paper which I did for my Specialist of Arts Degree in Educational Leadership at Eastern Michigan University ( I forget the year because I have went on to do more studies in other areas). You will find a copy at UWI library Reserve Section. My name is Dr. Wendell Minott
Africa was a Roman construct. They are not Africans. Most jamaicans from the slave trade are Isrealite descendants, or Hebrews. Not even Africans are Africans. What is Africa? Named after a Roman general, Leo Africanus. That land has many tribes. For example. See Ethiopia? Ethiopians have been Ethiopians since Biblical times, they are NOT Africans. See Egypt, not Africans. It's more truthful if you call it the Land of Ham, or Cush; but not Africa. To say you're an African is to declare that you are a descendant of, or belong to Leo Africanus. Wise up people. Rome has rewritten history. Rome has changed times, and laws. Rome's story is not our story. As a matter of fact African- American is also a lie. They are Isrealite-Americans. Afro-Brazilian is also a lie. Afro-Cuban is a lie. Afro-Carribbean is lie. Etc, etc. It is time to unlearn the lies.

It’s ironic that some Jamaicans even saying that they are the original Arawaks , tainos and Carib people…
All Caribbean people are partially decended from the taino people that were indigenous to the islands.

No, we are part of the true Isrealites, descendants of Hebrew slaves. Now, that's the truth.
@@Moko_Bomoi Jamaicans have mixed dna admixture. All have some european. Don't fool yourself
Jamaicans are 98 percent west African displaced from west Africa; they are not tianos or arawaks
They did a number us...sigh...it was Muta who started me on my journey.
Spot on. ATL ga
🇯🇲🇯🇲 History is written by the victors, not the vanquished.
Africa is 3 times the size of Europe but historically maps represent the reverse.
My Jamaican wife told me before we got married that Jamaica did not have slavery hahaha sigh.

Also a lot of us do not like the read!

Our leaders signed on dotted lines, no say on what they signed to when we were getting so-called independence

Absolutely.
