      They told you not to come here but they are here making money.

      I am a Black American. I love learning about Africa. And all the culture that I missed out on. I always say being Black American, is like being the child. Of a mother who died giving birth to you. And then being raised by a father who hates you. It’s truly sad. My deepest wish is to touch African soil at least once in my life.

      I actually had a very good history teacher at a community college. He was invested in teaching us a lot of native American history and their relationships and conflicts with the American government and the prejudice held against them. I enjoyed it very much and was grateful for such a different view. I think with so many resources on the internet and UA-cam it isn't hard to now educate one's self in an area they are interested or passionate about. I don't really plan on having kids, but if I did I would definitely encourage and aid them in finding richer history outside the "normal" curriculum.

      Do you also know queen nanny of the Maroons is actually from the Akan lineage(rumored to be either Ashanti or Fanti) so Yaa Asantewaa in turn might be a distant cousin to queen nanny because we know all royals get with each other to keep the wealth in the family and it was a thing to marry your cousin back then but only from your father's side since we are a matrilineal society

Could you please do a video on Mansa Musa. He is always over looked in many History classes, including Economic classes, which is dishonest and discouraging, because he is actually one of the richest men of medieval times. He was after all the first true billionaire of the world and some economists agree that billionaire is a low number to throw at him (some say his true net worth is in the trillions). I get mad when Rockefeller gets mentioned as such since Mansa Musa was the true first billionaire since 1300s. At a time when European and Asian nations were fighting against the plague.

    Yeah, Yaa! That was a beautifully illustrated and articulated story. I get friends to watch your amazing videos and they go from hating history, to total interest.💗

    Amazing video, but a bittersweet history. Sweet in the sense that the Asante were great, and not completely erased by revisionist history. But then bitter in the sense that they indeed played a part in the Atlantic slave trade; of course they couldn't have known the horrors that would befall enslaved African people in the Americas.

      The wars started when they "Asante's" discovered and started attacking their caravans..

    I love that people in Central and South America, Africa, South Asia, and Southeast Asia wore and had gold like it was just another piece of clothing before colonization.
