Wow, as I am Ethiopian , I am so proud of them, But don't give me wrong, I knew that Ethiopian sent outside to do scholarship. But I wish knew this kind of good V- memo. before 10/20 years then NOW. I Would watching them over over over again .

Madness follow the TPlF take over. They strategical destroyed Ethiopian values, traditions and unity. Also, one of the first thing they did was open war on our academic system and our intellectual because you can’t enslave educated people.
What we did then & what we are continuously doing is that we totally neglect, ignore, abandoned our indigenous teachings, values, moral ethics, Principles......... to that of foregine idealogy & thought analysis, we become imitators & imposters of the conquerors & invadors. From the get going the approach was wrong, one can not degrade, devalue, belittle his/her own home grown to adapot someone's else values, teachings only to be a puppet to colonialists, at least we could use both the home grown & the new at the same time as it fits. A good & perfect examples are the Japanese, Chinese & most Asians, they never ever totally abandoned their own instead they adds on the new, look where they are now. If we do not have a self love & respect of our own it will get worst than what we are facing today. The bitter truth is that, it is a self hatred & self inflicted psychological warfare on ourselves.
This was way way before DV (dedeb visa) During the king people only came (by airplane) to be educated and go back home to serve their country. Those were the golden days.
that generation was like a flame ........the revolution was happening in Cuba .......ohhhhhh that souls so lovely .......education ....change the ideology was great
12:35 "This kind of life cannot be described as conducive to serene contemplation" I've never related so hard to something in my life then when he said that
I am really proud as Ethiopian as I watching this archive. when I see myself in present society of Ethiopia ,I feel ashamed when do we lost from the railway track. There are many question to ask after this video?
very much embraced in the face of the world about these videos of Ethiopians students, especially the male, participating in the high school debate in USA in the 1950s- you are the reason we are in a national crises now
Ethiopia was a great country till the military junta take over the power and Ethiopia went through a lot of civil wars between socialist rebels dereg,TPLF,OLF,OLF,ELF and many more for last 47 years country were unstable
Mungstu Hailemariam did this because this the time of Mengistu Hailemariam! Why is it always Woyane is the blame of all the misery of Ethiopia? Mengistu Hailemariam is the who killed the must educated and Noble of Ethiopia!
why are we like this now, and like that then...? But it must have been a great time for the then Ethiopians. Its like I don't even know who they are. Are we the same Ethiopians? So elegant, classy and interesting. I hope that we will see ourselves in the same way those Ethiopians did. God bless Ethiopia
This was a time when American universities focused on quality education. Nowadays many American universities focus on bs like gender studies. The Ethiopian students are well dressed and well groomed. Nice to see a small glimpse into how university life was back then especially from the viewpoint of a foreign student in the USA.
I wonder what white Americans ( particularly those who didn’t have much contact with continental Africans) think of Ethiopians? They didn’t fit white America’s preconceived notions of how an “African” was supposed to look so I wonder how did they try to box them in? Edit: I probably didn’t word this question the best so please don’t be too harsh on me 😅
I had Ethiopians living next door to me They were wonderful hard working people Their three kids were straight A students and showed nothing but respect to all adults It was great having them as neighbors
I have no doubt the majority will consider them blacks,but from a different culture.Ofcourse not every body is bigot.Forinstance,those who live by the percepts Bible will treat them differently than the average Joe.Any ways it matter little what other may say about an individual. The most important thing is what we believe about our self concept. And we Ethiopians need to be thankful of our ancestors for keeping Ethiopia a free independent nation.
actually Ethiopians , since they don't know anything such as racism and no one had prejudice against them those times, they would have taught her many lessons if she tried!
The world is the same, people and things, the only thing that has change is our believe. Therefore its our believe that shapes our perception of others and perception is superseded by belief.
Amazing to see the difference in American students then and now with Social Justice Communism destroying their mentalities and culture. More people need to see this. Ethiopia 💚💛❤
