Hey I'm from the Bahamas and just stumbled upon this video. Glad you loved it. Im actually looking forward to coming to trinidad this summer with some friends after my internship is done.
So were these political, social and local elites that was causing the inequality in the country.
Very interesting and glad to know of this Channel
History have been made
See the demonstration with, Indians and Africans unite, the guy on the far right with the white T shirt 👕 with 2 horse head on the T shirt 👕, that's me that were 1970 February or March, can't remember exactly, from NYC
wow that some serious firsthand history you have knowledge of, we hope to meet you one day. Your legendary
Viva Black Power! Viva Freedom and Justice! Viva Negritude Banner (Biafran Flag)!
Just imagine 54 yrs has past and the same issues exist today as then what is the constant between all of this
Hello. No disrespect but your story needs a little more content. There were more soldiers involved and it affected their families lives also. To the person who steups in the comments, some of the freedoms you enjoy today are as a result of these people's actions. ❤🤍🖤
Blessings flows
Steeeuuuupppp
0:16 - That pic is of Bhadase Sagan Maharaj - Founder of the Sanatan Dharma Maha Sabha, not Raffique Shah 1:38 - Rex Lasalle and Raffique Shah are pictured standing beside one another on the left of the photo
What became of Rex Lasalle? Is he still alive? Where is he now?
The 1970 mutiny was never against the Government, or to take power. It was all an attempt to to join the protest in the capital
That was not a picture of raffique shah liar
Post a real pic and share your knowledge instead of just being mean. Sharing your knowledge would make you so cool
We need a. Burroughs. In. Trinidad now
That was the best year in the 70s.. Fact..!!
That is d man goodman them bad.
Interesting, however, Brahma and Shiva don't look like this.
Self made false story
he is not talking about your abrahamic falsehood
He was the best Commissioner my Country ever had. They Frame him i will never forget his name Randolph Borrow's ma he R I P. Trinidad lost ah Hero
Epic
What about Crazy song in time to come 1997 winner & Ras Shorty I money eh no problem,they push the creator out& watch out my children
Big facts. The narrator may not be a Trini
Yes, those are mega hits along with the other thousands of hits we do not have time to mention. However, as you mentioned it, I'm sure many people will go listen to it. Thank you, Lion.

How dare you call it Mythology. Brothers let’s not like this video nor subscribe this
We are very proud of the instrument, but please stop with broadcasting that "it is the only acoustic instrument invented in the 20th century), it is one of two. The vibraphone is the other. Bravo to the steelpan!
There is no goodness in Trinidad.dumb ROWELY government take away all goodness.all the prime ministers all over the world making bad decisions.GOG and MAGOG coming soon
Not Hindu mythology it's Hindu history
world history
Some of these are wrong. They come from the french eh. This is wrong information you giving ppl
Artificial Intelligence is the only kind of intelligence some people have. 🤷
French-creole isn't a mix of French and African Language spoken by the slaves?
@@CalypsotoZess yes it is. But it's not from french creole! A few words and saying are in Trinidad and Tobago eh. But some of these aren't. Remember we were socially and culturally french from 1783. Just use a text book from these. Our local text books has the meaning and origin of these
Yes God and Goddess Lakshmi Narayan inspire me😊
Also make videos on mythological muhammad and jesus
FYI, the holy necter is called AMRUT, not AMRITA which is a girls name.
white people's pronunciation is very limited. I know a girl whose name is Amreeta.
Turks in Turkey say sometimes may Allah give you Shifa. They pronounce the Shiva with a hard letter f. May Allah give you Shifa. Shiva was a big famous someone like Genhiz Khan or Zeus or Jesus. Shiva Shifa.
Time and time again T&T adapts to maintain our inclusivity to our multicultural society. We more civilized than the so-called 1st world.

Do Hindus consider the Buddha an avatar of Vishnu?
Some Hindu do, and some Hindu don't. But all I know only 1 God. Lord VISHNU 🙏🏼 transformation into anything in the universe 🙏🏼. I love Lord VISHNU 🙏🏼
Yes we do and Hindus believe buddha is not just one person, there were many before Siddhartha Gautam and many will come in future eons too
Gautam Buddha and Lord Buddha are differenct. Lord Buddha was the avater of Vishnu.
@Mahadev_BHAKT..... Thank you so much for clearing everything in my mind. I'm a Buddhism ☸️ but I worship Lord VISHNU and always call his name before I do something 🙏🏼.
@@Mahadev_BHAKT..... who is Lord Buddha, when did he come, what is his story?
Khalid bin walid,was tyrant and enemy of Prohet family's.
The truly legendary general ever and forever...
He was not an Arab, he was an Afghan, whose tribe lived in Arabia.💥💥
U hearing urself?
Well Guys God sent his son Jesus into the world as a man born of the virgin mary.he lived an humane life and he died and suffered for the sins of the mankind.God punished him for the sins of the whole humanity.He died and was raised by the Father God on the 3rd day that whosoever believes in him shall be forgiven of their sins and they shall be given eternal life.Whoever denies Jesus as their lord and saviour shall be thrown into hell and shall be tormented forever and they have to suffer for their sins.
Oh shut uuuuup
Jesus is a prophet, not God. Not 3 in 1, not savior. Shut up and stop spreading your made up agenda. You will go to hell for believing your agenda.
Didn't he killed Malek Ibn Nuira, boiled and ate his head, and then raped his wife? Malek Ibn Nuira was the person responsible for the treasury around the time of the prophet
The word mythology( given arrogantly by colonials who translated and stole the Vedic Gyan but called facts mythology) needs to not be associated with Hindu facts.Stop the word mythology. We need to remove the western template on Sanatan Dharm.
