Most Jamaicans prior to colonialism don’t have African Ancestry! The original Arawaks and Caribs were autochthonous to Jamaica and the rest of the so called Caribbean. Those foreigners sound like the Caucasians in America. No foreigner is autochthonous to these respective lands!

Jamaica might not be an African country, but it is made up basically of people of African descent, they are Africans and are proud of it. Personally I always view Jamaica as an African country out of Africa. One❤
Same here,me toooo long long time. I even wanted to visit Jamaica one time,knowing they would think am from there while simply east African. Back in London they all would say am Jamaican hanging with Jamaicans,I said it didn't matter. We are all ☝🏼👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Chinese, Indians, Irish came to Jamaica as Indentured Servants in the eighteen hundreds. Africans were already in Jamaica as enslaved humans since the 16th century. So, she is wrong
Jamaican were there before Columbus. Some Africans were taken to Jamaica as salve. She is not a native of Jamaica. Her and her whole family is indigenous to China, not Jamaica. Most Chinese in Jamaica don't live Jamaican. They get rich off our culture and now claim what they learn from us and capitalise off as there's. Most segregate themselves and look down on the locals.
This video made me really Love Jamaicans! The lady who defended her African roots won me over. I wanted to just hug her, as I feel like she’s my new auntie ❤️❤️❤️❤️ I’m an American and I visited Jamaica 🇯🇲 in 2019. I stayed in Montego Bay, at a mansion there. These two old ladies, worked there and took amazing care of us. I will forever love them for that, and hope to visit again. Just so I can see them, and bless them monetarily. I’m team USA 🇺🇸 and team Jamaica 🇯🇲
I love Jamaicans as well. They love everyone. Nice time in Montego Bay and Ochos Rios. I am going to live there when I'm done working in here in Long Beach California USA
Every human on the planet is from Africa, traced back 35,000 years to two tribes in Africa. I am as white as they come, damn near translucent, from the west coast of Canada, married to an amazing Jamaica woman who has German, Arabian, and African background. Everyone needs to get over the labelling BS. The whole world is going beige anyways, might as well embrace it :) Out of many, one and we are all one with the strength of many. Bless Up!
The africans in Jamaica were from many tribes and spoke different dialects so they had to find a way to communicate and that was how patois was formed and it was also so that europeans could not understand them also there were European words in the recipe.
taino Indians , irish workers, arabs and chinese all had a hand in creating the language because they were all here at the same time. not just african. you cant claim it all.
@@BO_Riddle It was only African at that time .Some African were mixed with Taino that runaway to hills. Maybe has time went on other influenced the dialect.But Arab had no influence on the culture.The other non African groups came after slavery ended.
@kayjohnson9786 you don't know what you're talking about. Arabs have influenced with food example Syrian bread which is famous in jamaica. Chinese indians portuguese were there during time of ending of slavery hundreds of years ago. Plus some blacks even came AFTER the chinese and Indians. I suggest you read a book on the history of jamaica and caribbean or Several!
You mixing up words with complete language... English and other words don't make a language... they can be used in a language like what has happened with patois. Also when did the Arabs and Chinese contribute to the Jamaican language? I don't think you are Jamaican....
You are mis informed. Jamaicans are diverse. The first black peoples actually came from Spain. Jamaicans are Igbo. Ashanti, Irish, 60% Scottish names the largest outside of Scotland. The accent is Gaelic with African, French and Spanish words.
We are predominantly black, and if we are not African then she is not Chinese. Chinese a some sneaking set a people enuh tell her she a black woman 😂😂😂😂 she probably fouwzie
Speak for yourself. You folks are constantly mixing up "ethnicity " with "nationality " so please educate yourselves and know the DIFFERENCE as you all sound so uneducated, which I'll take a guess and say most are - they didn't finish high school much less get higher education or an advanced degree. Not to mention, most of you have never, ever been out of or traveled to any other country -- I have; been to many countries in all the Continents except Antartica. Educate yourselves - read, read, read, watch documentaries and travel- it will open your mind and you'll learn a LOT. BTW, I am bi-racial and have many many many relatives who are very diverse in ethnicity (as a result of their parents marriage) and who live all over the world - countries where I've visited them. Be curious and learn.
Are people still running with the ideology of their oppressor. How do you know who you're. Because if we're going off, what we learned in school hell n powder house.
I’m a Jamaican and proud to be of African descent, lot of white,Chinese and Indian born and raised in Jamaica, and they are indeed Jamaican. But 80 plus percent of Jamaican population are from African descent and yes we love Africa and proud to call ourselves African. If we’re not African what are we, our ancestors came to Jamaica from Africa and nowhere else.
Jamaicans wha no mix, is different from a mix Jamaican. But unu chinese and other nations, for what you all did to us, Sins of you Father's will visit you has it did to us. Read the bible miss chin.

Peple who don't know history are a dunce or plain ignorant. Just like the Africans were bought to Jamaica, other ethnic groups came and they helped build the country. So now we have a Melting pot of people of other ethnic groups born in Jamaica AND THEY ARE NOW ALL Jamaicans. Try as you might you can push them out if they were born here.

Your Grandmother was talking nonsense, jamaicans ancestors were from ancient isreal,chased out of isreal by Romans and captured by Africans brought to Ghana Africa and sold to the White man on the Caribbean,so isreal is jamaican motherland not africa
If I use the Chinese lady’s logic, it’s like saying: British people can no longer say, British people are of European descent! Irish people can no longer say, Irish people are of Ireland/European descent or heritage! Therefore, I disagree with the Chinese lady!
Try using your understanding, it's not about not being a Jamaican it's about being of what or which desendant and she is of Chinese decent and blacks is of African decent, still all Jamaicans, so as black we say African paying homage to Africa and our ancestors if she doesn't want to embrace China here business that but don't say we can't identify ourselves as Africans cause no matter where yu come from as long ad yu are a black man you are an African, words or the great "Peter Tosh"

You do realise that the government does not have the resources to pursue visa violators, but if someone had turned you in. You could have been arrested and deported. Ignorance is bliss, but not a legal excuse.
🇯🇲 is absolutely a Black country! Approx 96% of our population is African. And we are "Hyphenated". We have Afro-European, Afro-Chinese, Afro-Indian, Afro-Arabs. She is right about Irish immigration but only partially right about our accent.
@datraass rubbish ... have you even been to other caribbean islands or even talked with some south American countries? Some of these countries have similar accents and even the language structures are similar. You need to stop agreeing with people who have agendas. Jamaican patois is African... which is why so many caribbean and south American accent and languages are similar to ours. West africans visiting Jamaican can understand the purest patois with a week.
So does that make you African, or just African descent. If one understands historically all races originated from Africa. I will not belabour this point. What of the North Africans ( Arabs, Syrians etc.) How do we classify a 3rd and 4th generation white South African ? Careful thought is important.
@@enviro-best2175 In Africa, we don't consider Arabs and whites as African. We consider them as immigrants who dwell on ancient African lands. Their occupation of our lands was fraught with a lot of violence. And so, in honor of our ancestors, we will always consider them immigrants. They are not our people. They will always be outsiders. The descendants of invaders. Not Africans or part of us.

Patwa is largely African and English. The accent might be similar to Irish but the language has several African words. She cannot lecture me on my history. And while Jamaicans are not all Africans, the majority (95%) are people from African descent.
@oneilhall5694 also ... many caribbean and south American countries have creole languages that's similar to Jamaican ... without Irish interactions. What's she has done is to find a few persons who sounds Jamaican and basically saying we are a product of them. It's like seeing Europeans eating out of a yabba .... and then concluding that we got the idea from them
Most of those Chinese people run away from Jamaica 🇯🇲 when the pressure was on.. they are mad because all these African bloggers talking about Jamaica & Jamaican people
It may be true that Jamaican can have Irish blood lines, but it do not mean that Jamaican do not also have African blood lines also .. and this do not mean that Jamaican can not claim African heritage.
From Namibia standing with you in fact The Carribean is also considered as Pat of the African Union hope my btothers and sisters in Haiti will also unite and have everlasting PEACE❤❤❤ AFRICAN STRONG
FYI! The name Africa was never a name Africa Identify with before slavery that’s why she the Chinese lady said some dunce Jamaicans and I agree. Africa was renamed by a white man from Europe and that was his family name dunce Jamaicans! Go and seek our African historian and Jamaican historian too.
@@truepink349 The Indigenous people of this world did not have names for the continents they lived on. It is the pirates who sailed around the world colonizing places that gave the names we use today. While we might not have identified ourselves as one people before the slave trade and colonialization, now we do. We share a common struggle as Africans. So this argument that Africa is not the right name to use is neither here nor there in 2024.
There will never be unity amongst Caribbean islands because they cannot get along. Everyone protects its waters. We are many different nations and races in the Caribbean within the blackness of our skin. I do not support one Caribbean but I say we blacks are indigenous to the earth.
Most Jamaicans overseas send money back to Jamaica which help with the economy. Most Chinese who were born and live in Jamaica spend their money among themselves. It does not matter which foreign country Jamaicans go they are recognized as Jamaicans.
Jamaicans are not a continent . Majority of Jamaicans have african ancestry, but how is the Majority of Jamaicans living in Jamaicans don't live out african cultures or embrace the ideology of an African. The rastas are the ones who promote African culture. You have the maroons, but that is it.
@andrewdawes it's too complex and where do you even start. Too be honest there will be some traditions the hard-core Afrocentric Jamaican might not stomach.
how can we live African culture?......we were taught to hate ourselves and all things African......there's a deliberate disconnect by the tormentors/enslavers/oppressors
I've always have a problem with that damn motto.. "out of many 1 people" thts b.s!! Wen jamaica IS a pre dominant slave port which mostly afrikans were brought an so forth..It's very dread & pitiful to c a Chinese woman educating jamaicans abt they own culture etc this motto is wat gives these other inhabitants a voice wen the locals suffer frm political sickness this causing severe mental disorders tht inevitably leads to mental slavery example; this filthy die harted mindset is the root problem..
In some case the Chinese lady right but the main point is: out of many, one people. The amount of genetic in our blood is not just from Africa. Jamaican are custom built by many nations.
Jamaica - out of many people is actually diverse…… She is saying the accent is similar to Iris… yes the dialect is mixed up with West African heritage What’s the issue - African Americans doesn’t say they are from Africa -- Jamaica wasn’t divided - it’s multiracial
I don’t know what this Chinese woman is on but it’s quite obvious to me that she has a vendetta What behooves me is there blatant disrespect and her history is not quite accurate I’ve been saying this time and time again because these people have money and influence on that Little island they think they’re more intelligent than others the arrogance is astonishing🤔💭🤦🏽♀️
People get confused between race and nationality. They are two different things. Races are definitely related to a place, but it has nothing to do with whether it not you were born there. Nationality has to do with where you were born, regardless of your race. Africans are of the negroid race. Chinese people are of the mongoloid race. Europeans are of the Caucasoid race. Each of those races originated in different parts of the world, Africa, Asia and Europe respectively. So to be of particular race it matters where your people and your DNA originate from, not where you were born. I was born in the United States. I had my DNA tested and nothing in my DNA test said indigenous American. The majority of my DNA said different regions of western, central and Southern Africa, even though I have never been to Africa. So even though I have never been to Africa, there is no way I can deny being African or of African descent. If that Chinese lady were to take a DNA test, I seriously doubt it would say “indigenous Jamaican”! I’m sure it would say China and/or some other Asian regions. I think most Jamaicans DNA test results would be like mine, mostly African, since the Jamaican population is about 90% black. Now your nationality, meaning where you were born has nothing to do with your genetics. It has to do with birth place and culture. So yes, there are cultural differences between different black people based on where they were born and the same goes for other races. Some people may choose to only identify with their nationality and their culture, some people may choose to identify more with their genetics. I just think that all of those things matter. Your nationality, your culture and your genetics all matter equally to me. As a black person walking around being treated the way black people are treated, I cannot deny being black because my skin says so. I choose to identify with all the aspects of me, the African part, the American part and I also have Portuguese and Spanish genetics, and I can identify with those culturally as well, because it is also part of my culture. So I say, people can identify with whichever aspects of themselves they choose to identify with, but they cannot dictate to another person what that person should identify with. So that Chinese lady cannot tell a Jamaican person that they are not African if they choose to identify with that aspect of themselves.
She is right about immigration will stamp your passport if it isnt Jamaican. And yes our language are mix with Irish and Africa. And yes we're a mix country out of many one people
am a black jamaican man. but from my extensive research she was right in a sense . but patwa was taken from a mixture of multiple diferent languages including african and scottish dialect
Yes but when things get really crazy in Jamaica they get to go to other countries and China but we don’t get to run like them because we are African decent we got to do or die and fight No Chinese was in the Morant Bay Rebellion fighting for our freedom and die on yonder gallas Only Paul Bogle and a English decent man named George William Gordon who was a true friend of Bogle.So these Chinese people never helped our ancestors fought because they were never enslaved when they were brought to Jamaica
The next thing when the other race that is Not African decent wants to go abroad using the Jamaican passport and citizenship they are given first class treatment in getting visas over the blacks.That’s why it’s very easy for them to travel abroad without being victimised or deported and that’s the plain truth there colour and ethnicity given them entitlement at any of these embassies and countries because it’s a white privileged world
Faithjj6016 George William Gordon was biracial and he was from Cherry Gardens in upper St.Andrew. They hung him and if memory serves me right he was a lawyer fighting against the enslavement of Black Population in Jamaica.🇯🇲
So the missing word is 'some'. Some Jamaicans are Africans, some are Indians, some are Germans, some are Chinese. We all have a base home that's why we put that in our description of who we are. It's been said that we all originate from Africa. So that's another topic😊
Over 90%are of African descent. No one can try to erase that. Yes they are others born in Jamaica, but they are a small percentage. That's like going to England and saying it's not a white country because Indians, blacks and Chinese also were born and live there. That's just ridiculous.
As in Africa, particularly in East Africa, the slavers imported the Irish and Chinese as buffers between the slavers and the slaves. That's how come you have Chinese Jamaicans. You are lucky that Jamaicans of African descent did not expel you as Idi Amin of Uganda expelled Indians because the Indians formed a state within a state after the British left. Thank your lucky stars, my Chinese brothers and sisters in Jamaica.
People who live in the Caribbean are all West Indians, (we live in the West Indies) with different ethnic backgrounds/ancestral lineages… respect and love to all my Caribbean people…
Do you know how it came to be called the West Indies? I am an African Descendant. I am a Jamaican. The majority of Jamaicans are African descendants. We were kidnapped from Africa. Now if you and your family members were imported within the last 100 years then you may not be an African descendant.
Do you know how it came to be called the West Indies? Columbus called the Arawaks and Carib people Indians because his non- navigating self thought he was in India. I think your comments are anti-black.
My Chinese sister battles identity in a manner that reminds me of The Afrikaner Factor in South Africa: When you have citizenship of one country with strong historic and demographic ties from your country of native identity. Pride and prejudice have been upgraded in subtlety and sophistry in our relationship with one another across colour, tongue, class and creed. This is the bane of social cohesion.
I am UK born and raised. I'm of Jamaican descent - both sides and I look much more African than anything typical Caribbean to the point when I'm in Jamaica people often think I'm African. Well, I'm not African. I have never ever even for a nano second considered myself African. I'm a black man of African descent, but I'm not an African. This Chinese lady is right - Jamaicans are from all over the place and we are a melting pot of people - Out of Many - One People.
The cadence is actually African with mixture of many other languages words. Depending on the island it will have more English or Irish or french depending on the colonizers.
She's not wrong! Except for. If you are not a Jamaican citizen, you have limited time in Jamaica. This woman is saying she doesn't have anything against miss chin,she sounds bitter. She not Chinese, she doesn't have a Chinese passport or citizenship. Chinese is a nationality so is Jamaican. Jamaica is described as a multi ethnic nation..
On the entry to Jamaica, by law, if you enter the island with anything other than a Jamaican Passport, you are subject to the whims and fantasy of the immigration officer just like any other other country, no matter what you might say or think. I would suggest you download the laws of the Jamaican Immigration Act.
Ms you said her father imported her mother, yet she has a Chinese last name. Do you know the amount of whites and diversed people living in Jamaica?. We should take the time to learn about Jamaica and how we came to be who we are. Ms Chin is right in everything she said.
People she is correct in her delivery!! Don’t take it entirely out of context by attacking her race. Lady in brown shirt, go do the research and try not to take this so personal!!!
Try not to remain ignorant unnecessarily. Do your research. If you have a phone thats free. All black ppl do not originate from Africa. J.A Rogers is a black Jamaican. Google his book and learn something.

Ethnicity is not the same as Nationality. If this Chin woman goes on the 🌒 moon she is Chinese! Indians, Whites, all have an ethnic identity but African descendants must not claim our ancestral heritage and identity Miss Chin? And last time I checked African is the largest ethnic group in Jamaica.
The woman is talking facts teaching history and I see a lot of Africans on here spreading dissent stop it, you know nothing about Jamaicans. Yes you love our music and food etc. but you are bringing your Africanism to somewhere else that does not apply. Jamaicans can call themselves African if they choose but I sure as hell am not African I am Jamaican end of story. I have spent enough time around Africans to know how different they are to us, we might be the same colour but we are not the same people.
When you change your mind, Africa will still welcome you. Africans are not your enemies. The people who invaded Africa should be the ones to be blamed for all this division. Had they never come to our land with guns to steal, kill, and destroy, our people would not be scattered around the world against their will. Anyway, it is what it is.
To the content creator and all who disagree: She is not wrong about the race and motto! Jamaica's racial makeup is of African, Lebanese, Indian, Haka Chinese, Syrian, and White. 90% are of African descent with many mixed into that majority, and the remaining 10% is made up of the rest. What she is wrong about is Immigration telling people they have to leave. Once you can prove your citizenship of birth as Jamaican, they cannot ask you to leave.

I am black and can only claim Jamaican. I told people it is unfair to the other ethnicity in me to only claim African descent because I am black.
Jamaican Patois (/ˈpætwɑː/; locally rendered Patwah and called Jamaican Creole by linguists) is an English-based creole language with West African, Taíno, Irish, Spanish, Hindustani, Portuguese, Chinese, and German influences, spoken primarily in Jamaica and among the Jamaican diaspora.
It isn't primarily Jamaican. The whole of the Caribbean speaks patois with the same influences. There are differences in the accents and then some of the language but their are a lot more similarities.
Jamaica like other Caribbean islands has high number of West and Central African roots. I don't see any African country building roads, housing projects, giving money, sending Jamaican to university. Africa is rich but not doing anything for it's people outside Africa.

What’s she’s saying makes sense. Most people in Jamaica are of African descent but not all. The accent is a mixture of the different racial groups that came to the Island. When I first heard the Irish accent I was surprised at how similar it is to Jamaican accent…,, It’s a fact…..
If you have dual nationality and land with your Jamaican passport there are no restrictions. Not all Asians Downtown are not CHINESE believe it or not they are mostly KOREANS
It is very difficult for Jamaicans to really say which ethnicity is the strongest in us unless we take a DNA testing. We are a mixed-up race. Even for some persons who may look black, white, Chinese, or Indians, that is what we see now because of our current parentage. But our motto is true, out of many one people. I am a Jamaican.

There is something on UA-cam called the black wife effect where black women are marrying and dating white men and showing them off, wake up black people they don't love you they are trying to service Because after the third generation or the third generation that child does not look black.. Don't know what is wrong with black people but they will never learn . I don't know when they will ever wake up it's so sad.

The africans in Jamaica were from many tribes and spoke different dialects so they had to find a way to communicate and that was how patois was formed and it was also so that europeans could not understand them also there were European words in the recipe.
taino Indians , irish workers, arabs and chinese all had a hand in creating the language because they were all here at the same time. not just african. you cant claim it all.
@@BO_Riddle It was only African at that time .Some African were mixed with Taino that runaway to hills. Maybe has time went on other influenced the dialect.But Arab had no influence on the culture.The other non African groups came after slavery ended.
@kayjohnson9786 you don't know what you're talking about. Arabs have influenced with food example Syrian bread which is famous in jamaica. Chinese indians portuguese were there during time of ending of slavery hundreds of years ago. Plus some blacks even came AFTER the chinese and Indians. I suggest you read a book on the history of jamaica and caribbean or Several!
You mixing up words with complete language... English and other words don't make a language... they can be used in a language like what has happened with patois. Also when did the Arabs and Chinese contribute to the Jamaican language? I don't think you are Jamaican....

People get confused between race and nationality. They are two different things. Races are definitely related to a place, but it has nothing to do with whether it not you were born there. Nationality has to do with where you were born, regardless of your race. Africans are of the negroid race. Chinese people are of the mongoloid race. Europeans are of the Caucasoid race. Each of those races originated in different parts of the world, Africa, Asia and Europe respectively.
So to be of particular race it matters where your people and your DNA originate from, not where you were born. I was born in the United States. I had my DNA tested and nothing in my DNA test said indigenous American. The majority of my DNA said different regions of western, central and Southern Africa, even though I have never been to Africa. So even though I have never been to Africa, there is no way I can deny being African or of African descent. If that Chinese lady were to take a DNA test, I seriously doubt it would say “indigenous Jamaican”! I’m sure it would say China and/or some other Asian regions. I think most Jamaicans DNA test results would be like mine, mostly African, since the Jamaican population is about 90% black.
Now your nationality, meaning where you were born has nothing to do with your genetics. It has to do with birth place and culture. So yes, there are cultural differences between different black people based on where they were born and the same goes for other races. Some people may choose to only identify with their nationality and their culture, some people may choose to identify more with their genetics. I just think that all of those things matter. Your nationality, your culture and your genetics all matter equally to me.
As a black person walking around being treated the way black people are treated, I cannot deny being black because my skin says so. I choose to identify with all the aspects of me, the African part, the American part and I also have Portuguese and Spanish genetics, and I can identify with those culturally as well, because it is also part of my culture.
So I say, people can identify with whichever aspects of themselves they choose to identify with, but they cannot dictate to another person what that person should identify with. So that Chinese lady cannot tell a Jamaican person that they are not African if they choose to identify with that aspect of themselves.
She is right about immigration will stamp your passport if it isnt Jamaican. And yes our language are mix with Irish and Africa. And yes we're a mix country out of many one people

The next thing when the other race that is Not African decent wants to go abroad using the Jamaican passport and citizenship they are given first class treatment in getting visas over the blacks.That’s why it’s very easy for them to travel abroad without being victimised or deported and that’s the plain truth there colour and ethnicity given them entitlement at any of these embassies and countries because it’s a white privileged world

So the missing word is 'some'. Some Jamaicans are Africans, some are Indians, some are Germans, some are Chinese. We all have a base home that's why we put that in our description of who we are. It's been said that we all originate from Africa. So that's another topic😊
Unfortunately, they tar everyone with the same brush, which is not fair, plus no slave ship has ever been found.
Over 90%are of African descent. No one can try to erase that. Yes they are others born in Jamaica, but they are a small percentage. That's like going to England and saying it's not a white country because Indians, blacks and Chinese also were born and live there. That's just ridiculous.
As in Africa, particularly in East Africa, the slavers imported the Irish and Chinese as buffers between the slavers and the slaves. That's how come you have Chinese Jamaicans. You are lucky that Jamaicans of African descent did not expel you as Idi Amin of Uganda expelled Indians because the Indians formed a state within a state after the British left. Thank your lucky stars, my Chinese brothers and sisters in Jamaica.
People who live in the Caribbean are all West Indians, (we live in the West Indies) with different ethnic backgrounds/ancestral lineages… respect and love to all my Caribbean people…
Absolutely! They are West Indians.
Do you know how it came to be called the West Indies? I am an African Descendant. I am a Jamaican. The majority of Jamaicans are African descendants. We were kidnapped from Africa. Now if you and your family members were imported within the last 100 years then you may not be an African descendant.
Do you know how it came to be called the West Indies? Columbus called the Arawaks and Carib people Indians because his non- navigating self thought he was in India. I think your comments are anti-black.
@@Tanniab09 I am certainly not anti-black … do you know where the word “Indian” came from?
How come people don't u derstand the difference between NATIONALITY and RACE We are AFRICANS Don't swap Continent for Island
Ethnicity is not on our birth certificates.
I am tired of typing in the social media space, that Nationality is different from Ethnicity!
Speak for yourself Jamaican is a nationality and the country is not homogenous. So it is inaccurate to say Jamaicans are Africans
@@kaedomoore4789 I know you are replying to the initial comment! Question for you. What is your ethnicity?
@@cognitionup5211 If you're tired, then don't do it. It's that simple!
My Chinese sister battles identity in a manner that reminds me of The Afrikaner Factor in South Africa: When you have citizenship of one country with strong historic and demographic ties from your country of native identity. Pride and prejudice have been upgraded in subtlety and sophistry in our relationship with one another across colour, tongue, class and creed. This is the bane of social cohesion.
I am UK born and raised. I'm of Jamaican descent - both sides and I look much more African than anything typical Caribbean to the point when I'm in Jamaica people often think I'm African. Well, I'm not African. I have never ever even for a nano second considered myself African. I'm a black man of African descent, but I'm not an African. This Chinese lady is right - Jamaicans are from all over the place and we are a melting pot of people - Out of Many - One People.
Bob Marley is African thru and thru
I fully agree with her. We are Jamaicans full stop.
Can't put island over content
Say u not we 🇯🇲 🌍
The cadence is actually African with mixture of many other languages words. Depending on the island it will have more English or Irish or french depending on the colonizers.
She's not wrong! Except for. If you are not a Jamaican citizen, you have limited time in Jamaica. This woman is saying she doesn't have anything against miss chin,she sounds bitter. She not Chinese, she doesn't have a Chinese passport or citizenship. Chinese is a nationality so is Jamaican. Jamaica is described as a multi ethnic nation..
41% of jamaican ancestors were from the igho tribe in the biafran region of nigeria .
And take a look at their ancestry DNA results.
She is 90% wrong.
@nduodiaka-ph9sl ..really!! In what way??
Jamaica is racially diverse.. Jamaicans don't only originate from Africa. Mostly Africa but not only Africa.. the original Jamaicans were the Tainoes
On the entry to Jamaica, by law, if you enter the island with anything other than a Jamaican Passport, you are subject to the whims and fantasy of the immigration officer just like any other other country, no matter what you might say or think. I would suggest you download the laws of the Jamaican Immigration Act.
Thank you. The Chinese-Jamaican is providing rules to enlighten people. Rather, people want to cuss her and boast about how they can beat the system.
Ms you said her father imported her mother, yet she has a Chinese last name. Do you know the amount of whites and diversed people living in Jamaica?. We should take the time to learn about Jamaica and how we came to be who we are. Ms Chin is right in everything she said.
You're absolutely correct. Thanks for being one of the few rational people here.
People she is correct in her delivery!! Don’t take it entirely out of context by attacking her race. Lady in brown shirt, go do the research and try not to take this so personal!!!
Listen to miss Louise Bennett and stop listening this mad Chinese woman 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
MiSS LOUIS WHO ENGINEERED AN INARTICULATE SOCIETY...
SENTIMENTS WILL KEEP JAMAICA POOR LIKE AFRICA WATCH!!
Try not to remain ignorant unnecessarily. Do your research. If you have a phone thats free. All black ppl do not originate from Africa.
J.A Rogers is a black Jamaican. Google his book and learn something.
That's right .Who give her the authority to decide who are Africans or not .Miss Chen you may have something against Jamaican people but black people all around globe are descendants of Africa .
@@chocolatechild1513some people may choose to be something else or gravitate to colonial narrative .The only continent that has to do with origin of black people is Africa .

🇿🇲 my Jamaican brother's and sisters mother's and father's don't mind this lady she's bugging
She is disrespectful though. She needs some to teach her real Jamaica history.
Stop commenting . You don't know our history She never said Jamicans aren't Africans.
Even the Chinese is an African;and I as a 🇯🇲 black Jamaicans would like you to listen Peter Tosh….”Don't care where you come from
As long as you're a black man
You're an African
No mind your nationality
You have got the identity of an African”🙏🏾❤🌍
No matter where you come from, you can identify with where you grew up. However, your DNA determines your origin 💪🏽❤️❤️
Every one is right in having their own point of view just take this as a lesson to learn and understand each other.
I like that - it's very diplomatic. True, true, everyone has the right to their own point of view.
@@mcmillandaley6806 no one has the right to call others dunce or stupid.
You can have your own opinion but facts are facts .
I'm Jamaican but not African. I may have African descent blood, but not African. She is perfectly right
You sound silly like the chinese lady, take a look in the mirrow!
This guy loves to trigger people with these videos. He keeps posting old videos from years and years ago, Jamaican people stop falling for the emotional trigger, you're being used for views and youtube money.
Very true
I AM--AND WILL ALWAYS BE JAMAICAN
NOT AFRICAN MANY JAMAICANS ARE MIXED- VARIOUS RACES
OUT OF MANY, ONE PEOPLE--JAMAICANS
Well sweetheart unfortunately the same for African Americans but African DNA trumps it all 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 FYI Your language has West African also. Jamaican’s , Ghanaian’s history tells a story. IJS .
Chinese woman telling Jamaicans who they are. The world is coming to an end.
I think she is trying to put up..❤..sister you are a true Jamaican..that's what we do come here to work and send money back home...we can't deny our heritage..ms chine is a Jamaican However her forefathers are from China..it goes many ways..we are Jamaican but our forefathers are from Africa
Ethnicity is not the same as Nationality. If this Chin woman goes on the 🌒 moon she is Chinese! Indians, Whites, all have an ethnic identity but African descendants must not claim our ancestral heritage and identity Miss Chin? And last time I checked African is the largest ethnic group in Jamaica.
The woman is talking facts teaching history and I see a lot of Africans on here spreading dissent stop it, you know nothing about Jamaicans. Yes you love our music and food etc. but you are bringing your Africanism to somewhere else that does not apply. Jamaicans can call themselves African if they choose but I sure as hell am not African I am Jamaican end of story. I have spent enough time around Africans to know how different they are to us, we might be the same colour but we are not the same people.
Who care about what you think we African are ok with ourself..we rich we have everything so we don't care and we not crying for u be call African ok
Your ignorance is breath taking, lots of African culture in Jamaican existence, food, clothing and music .
Don't white-wash yourself. There's a difference between nationality and ethnicity!
🎯💯
When you change your mind, Africa will still welcome you. Africans are not your enemies. The people who invaded Africa should be the ones to be blamed for all this division. Had they never come to our land with guns to steal, kill, and destroy, our people would not be scattered around the world against their will. Anyway, it is what it is.
To the content creator and all who disagree: She is not wrong about the race and motto! Jamaica's racial makeup is of African, Lebanese, Indian, Haka Chinese, Syrian, and White. 90% are of African descent with many mixed into that majority, and the remaining 10% is made up of the rest. What she is wrong about is Immigration telling people they have to leave. Once you can prove your citizenship of birth as Jamaican, they cannot ask you to leave.
😂miss chin left this one alone 😂😂😂
Right she too nuff
@@afrikanjamaicangrl2077 You none Jamaicans stop making stupid comments.
😂😂..
Did she say blacks are not Africans or did she say Jamaica is not an African country? 🤔
@islandboi2130 jamaicans ancestors were from ancient isreal,chased out of isreal by Romans and captured by Africans brought to Ghana Africa and sold to the White man on the Caribbean,so isreal is jamaican motherland is not african its isreal , Jamaica is a Caribbean nation
@@RichardWillis-fn4hg - Where did you get this info from. I’m interested… Jamaicans are a unique different from the rest of the world. 😀
@@mitsysimkelle2325 Deuteronomy 28, and the LORD will send you back in Egypt (bondage) by ships which was the Atlantic slave trade, psalm 68.4 calls God jah, Jamaica is pronounce jah-maker! If you listen buju Banton song name good God of my salvation,in the second verse buju Banton said clearly jamaicans are the isrealites go listen the song
In school we education our Jamaican students of the different nations that make up "Out of many, one people" I am a black woman but my grandparents are Indians, Chinese, Europeans and African. I am black and can only claim Jamaican. I told people it is unfair to the other ethnicity in me to only claim African descent because I am black.
Jamaican Patois (/ˈpætwɑː/; locally rendered Patwah and called Jamaican Creole by linguists) is an English-based creole language with West African, Taíno, Irish, Spanish, Hindustani, Portuguese, Chinese, and German influences, spoken primarily in Jamaica and among the Jamaican diaspora.
It isn't primarily Jamaican. The whole of the Caribbean speaks patois with the same influences. There are differences in the accents and then some of the language but their are a lot more similarities.
Well said and well spoken.
Thank you 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Jamaica like other Caribbean islands has high number of West and Central African roots. I don't see any African country building roads, housing projects, giving money, sending Jamaican to university. Africa is rich but not doing anything for it's people outside Africa.
It is sad to read some of these asinine comments, it really showcases how uninformed and lacking of comprehensive skills most commenter's are.
Thanks for a thoughtful comment.
You want handouts...BIG UP AFRICA
@islandboi2130 jamaicans ancestors were from ancient isreal,chased out of isreal by Romans and captured by Africans brought to Ghana Africa and sold to the White man on the Caribbean,so isreal is jamaican motherland is not african its isreal
You don’t know your bible or history to say that Israelites are not Africans. They came out of Egypt. Africa. Same people. Ethiopia. Kush. Israel was north east Africa before they separated it with the canal and calling it the Middle East when all that land is Africa including Yemen and Sadi Arabia
@@kurhhneymills3091 you are talking nonsense isreal went into bondage in Egypt,why were they not call Egyptian? Because they were not Egypt,eygpt today is middle east,there is no where on the bible the word africa exist so don't talk nonsense
Last time I checked, Jamaica is a 92% majority Black nation.
How long ago was that, you checked? Just wondering. Indeed, the phenotype of most Jamaicans in the country of Jamaica is Black African.
What’s she’s saying makes sense. Most people in Jamaica are of African descent but not all. The accent is a mixture of the different
racial groups that came to the Island. When I first heard the Irish accent I was surprised at how similar it is to Jamaican accent…,, It’s a fact…..
Do you know there are regional dialects of Patwa? There is also a clear link to Kromanti, Akkan, and Ibo words in the language.
Our accent sounds similar to Irish. Nuff a dem come here and mixed with the Africans.
If you have dual nationality and land with your Jamaican passport there are no restrictions. Not all Asians Downtown are not CHINESE believe it or not they are mostly KOREANS
@@m0t10n80the words in our dialect have links to Africa but I have listened and it sounds close to the irish.
The jamaican lady in this video is confusing words in the patois dialect with accent. ACCENT is different from LANGUAGE.
Misunderstanding is a terrible thing 😂
It is very difficult for Jamaicans to really say which ethnicity is the strongest in us unless we take a DNA testing. We are a mixed-up race. Even for some persons who may look black, white, Chinese, or Indians, that is what we see now because of our current parentage. But our motto is true, out of many one people. I am a Jamaican.
The. Race is Black not African. We are African decendants not African for we were not born in Africa. Our fore fathers were Afrocan
We are African through linked fate.
@@cosmicviewer477 what is your tribe in Africa?
My grandfather, is from Ireland and European and Indian descendants but I was born in Jamaica.. No African DNA. Anyway I see myself AS A CHILD OF THE MOST High.❤❤
So your nationality is Jamaican. However your ethnicity is a mixture of European, Indian possibly some black since there maybe some intermingling.🇯🇲❤️💯👍

Jamaica is a part of the caribbean nation such with guyana, trinidad, barbados, dominican republic, puerto rico, panama, and hati. And the caribbean nation is called the west indies. However we do have an african ancestory yes. But it's not an african country
Guyana is not part of the Caribbean it's south America
Dominicans pretty racist against african luking pple 😂😂😂
It's quite simple. The lady is JAMAICAN of CHINESE heritage. Out of Many, One People. What is it people don't get.
She's disrespecting the African ancestors of the African majority that founded our island nation. That's the problem. No one is concerned about her Chinese heritage. Why is she disrespecting the ancestry of the MAJORITY of Jamaicans. Read some history books. She's being disrespectful.
@@2967_ Africans didn't find Jamaica...They were brought here as slaves, the Taino Indians were already here 😕

@@Halfwaytreeclockwe Jamaican are black people. The other races are visitors. The original/indigenous people of Jamaica are black and they are still there to this day. This woman has Chinese ancestry she is not one of us, she and you need to tell your Chinese people to stop mistreating black people in Jamaica. Only the other races talk about the out of many one people motto, most Jamaican don't believe that motto and that motto is not Jamaica's motto it was given to us by the British/colonizers. There are many different races living in china but if I say china is a diverse nation those Chinese would be upset . Jamaica is a black country you guys came as visitors/workers. Stop disrespecting the Black people of Jamaica your people always disrespect black people you need to tell them to stop but you won't because they are your people.
@ou8r122 you are correct, American had that motto, but most Jamaican don't believe or like that motto it's mainly the other races that throw that motto in our faces and I have seen the interacial commercials also they are trying to get rid of the black race. They do this in the latin countries it's called whitening. They also do this in Australia and other countries and now they are doing it in Africa, American the Caribbean and other countries black people will never learn, I heard some white girls say the reason why they want black kids and marry or date black people it's because they want to survive ,this is why you see all these interracial marriage and dating. I keep hearing biracial kid complain that their white mother or father is racists,, it's because they are not with these black people for love but for servival and these black men and women are dating and marring them like crazy. There is something on UA-cam called the black wife effect where black women are marrying and dating white men and showing them off, wake up black people they don't love you they are trying to service Because after the third generation or the third generation that child does not look black.. Don't know what is wrong with black people but they will never learn . I don't know when they will ever wake up it's so sad.
