      I could tell by that man spirit that he is a very nice man. I like what he said she said that the gambian people have been sold the wrong story about us. I sure wish I could come there and teach the kids as well as the adults the truth about America. So that we all realize that we are the same and don't need to be jealous of each other. I would love to work on Dave's land to teach that. Together we stand divided we fall. Look at all the rest of the nationalities from around the world they come there to work but they're not interested in what happened to us as slaves. All they want is money. We want to come there and bring us together as a people. I think it's a shame that they kept that history out of the books of the gambian people in Africa all over. African people please if anyone tell you anything about America please listen to them. The white man so you are a bag of rotten apples they are all about what they can get trust me! We are a strong group of people we are beautiful people and we're all connected definitely

    I wish my son could come and meet brother Dave and get that type of knowledge that he had to share in this interview. Thank you brother Dave I think you would make a great speaker on UA-cam and in front of a crowd because what you got to say only experience can teach. I most definitely will get to Gambia that is for sure! Africa for sure I myself would like to change the narrative. I still believe if we all could come together one day God would be pleased and we will be at peace Hallelujah. I just don't know when.... we need to stop dividing ourselves by one stupid thing and another. Then we found out in America that we weren't taught our history properly. We went and found out. This is exactly what Africans need to do. And listen to what we're telling you about the West Point Blank the white man. And stop being impressed with material things that they charm us with... and when I say white man I mean white man from all over the world. No matter what language he speaks.. And we definitely need to stop separating ourselves by color of our skin. We all have the same ancestors period and all they want to see is us come together and love one another. Jews situation last a few minutes in comparison to ours .But our division amongst ourselves just continue to last a lifetime. What's wrong with us? We are like this all over the world African, African Americans whatever we want to call ourselves black whatever. ... wherever there are people of color we seem to have allowed the white man to keep us separated . Because he know that we are strong together. So he brainwashed all the weaklings and ignorance ones. They did that hundreds of years ago and we still taking the same medicine. The ignorant medicine is costing us. what's wrong with us?? That's THE question we need to really think about it ... because if we don't change that mean that they came ,they conquer us and divided
    us forever... I hope just get read because this is something that we need to be aware of we need to wake up I'm talking to Africans and African American black whatever we want to call ourselves around the world

It sounds like he is interested in having a educational component on his compound and I have recently started a African Diaspora cultural program which teaches not only Blacks from the diaspora, but also Africans about our history here in the west as well as pre-colonial history on the continent. I’m interested in my program on the continent; if possible I would love to connect with Brother Dave. One Love.

Are there any time constraints to load it and ship it? Costs involved with the time constraints. Can you keep the container for future use? Also what shipping company used to transport the car and costs? You all doing a great job! I’m working on coming out there hopefully in May just to visit. Spend a week out there.

    Toubab simply means two Bob's and shillings, the brits used to give the kids Bob's( british currency at that time). Its not a bad word, it's simply kids asking for money.
