  • To celebrate diversity in the world we asked 67 people from all over the world to take a DNA test. It turns out that they have much more in common with other nationalities than they would ever have imagined. In this short film, you can join Carlos on his amazing journey into who he really is.
    Let’s Open Our World is an invitation to travel across boundaries, embrace our differences and open our world.
    momondo believes that everybody should be able to travel the world, to meet other people, and experience other cultures and religions. Travel opens our minds: when we experience something different, we begin to see things differently.

      that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: "People should stop boasting about their fathers who have died, while they are but coals of Hell, or they will be more humiliated with Allah than the dung beetle who rolls dung with his nose. Indeed Allah has removed the pride of Jahiliyyah from you, and its boasting about lineage. [Indeed a person is either] a pious believer, or a miserable sinner. And people are all the children of Adam, and Adam was [created] from dust."

    • @raysand2557
      @raysand2557 8 років тому +4

      ohne label You are absolutely right! You hit the nail on the head. There's a difference between embracing your blackness and being afrocentric. Black Cubans embrace their ancestry without being afrocentric by a} not denying that they are black, b} with their african based religion, c} with their music. d} with their dance. If you look at black religious chants and dances in Cuba, not only are the dances purely african, but many of the words that they use a Yoruban. No, caribbeans from the English speaking world are as African as black Cubans. That's a fact.

    • @raysand2557

      Moniqtee The Cubans who are European focus on their European culture and the Cubans who are African focus on their African culture. For instance, a Cuban like Ryan Lochte who is white is going to focus on his European culture and a Cuban who is black like the late Celia Cruz is going to focus on her African culture.

    • @loochhmm6334
      @loochhmm6334 4 роки тому +2

      LemonDrop there is a modern Hispanic. *Some (many) were killed. Once again, if the all of them were killed, we wouldn’t have any Latinos with Native ancestry in the Caribe or throughout Latin America. Therefore many of them interbred due to forced assimilation. Though we come in all colors, the majority of our DNA (and the entirety of our cultures) come from the “3 raíces”. Most of us are hybrids of Indigenous, West/north African, European. That is the modern Hispanic. I’m saying this... as a Cuban of those 3 roots.

    • @loochhmm6334
      @loochhmm6334 4 роки тому

      LemonDrop you are an exception. When you are dealing with numbers... most of Latin america is mestizo. Therefore they’re the “modern Latino” which everyone knows and associates with the region. That’s not to say that other ppl can’t be Hispanic/Latino, but they’re minorities and exceptions, like with many Miami Cubans (though some are mestizo)

His DNA proves that he is related to Dominicans by DNA because of his African ancestry.
      When you think of Cuba you have great Afro Cubans like Celia Cruz, Yasiel Puig. Erislandy Lara, Laz Alonso,Cristina Milian, Rosario Dawson who is also Puerto rican .

    Reminds me of when I was setting up an Intercultural Day for my class. I was going to put up flags for all the kids' ancestral nationalities, so I asked the parents about their cultural backgrounds. About two or three parents simply said "American." And I'm like, "Okay, but what else?" "Just American."
    Look, I'm white, and I know I'm not 100% American and that my ancestors come from all over, mostly Europe, who eventually came to America seeking new opportunities, which makes me proud. So I find it sad how people lose touch of their cultural backgrounds, not knowing their family history or where they came from. True, our DNA doesn't define us, but it's still interesting to know where you came from.

      The meaning of his African roots: He is an Afro-Cuban; the descendants of the African (Hebrew) slaves who were brought to the colonies of Spain in the "new world" mixed with the aboriginals and the slave masters either by force of their volition. The Native American are those aboriginal peoples of the Americas, of course.
      It's funny that he didn't want to be Dominican, for they have the same exact story, and are from the Bantu Expansion nations of Africa as well.
      Now, most people do not understand that Oliver Cromwell, protector of the British Crown, betrayed the crown and banished the royals and their families to the West Caribbean and the Americas. The Saxsons, Jutes, and Anglos replaced them. The true Crown overthrown by Cromwell were placed on the slaves ships leaving from the UK to Africa's West Coast to pick up additional slaves, then off to the new world with their cargo. The Scots, Irish, and British that were aboard as slaves were black. Thus they were mixed in the populations of the African slaves.

    I love this one and Karen's. I think for many people who don't know what ethnicity they are these tests are fun. For those of us that have a strong sense of ethnic identity these tests can be scary. They can totally negate the feelings of belonging you have to a language, ethnic identity, culture, customs, etc. & both these videos beautifully illustrate that panic before finding out their results rather than the excitement that's usually seen by people who don't have that strong sense of ethnic identity.

      I never was born a Christian.
      I never was born religious.
      I was only born in my sins. And my sinfull nature to do bad.
      When I was 16 years old I head of Christ the Son of God, head of the Bible knowed that I am a sinner, knowed that Hell exists and it is eternall heard of God`s love and I accepted to serve Him!
      But I never was born to be religious. Even to day. I am a Christian not religious.
      If people cannot belive or know that I have a personal relationship with God, that means I by the mercy what I have been given to, I am above that. And they ignore or dont know.

      Never heard of any such rivalry. However, there is a certain animosity between Mexicans and Puerto Ricans and Dominicans and Puerto Ricans that I did detect when living among both groups. There is also animosity between Argentinians and Chileans based on border issues. Cubans and Puerto Ricans are like brother nations and get along just fine. Then there was a time when Argentina, Brazil, and Uruguay attacked Paraguay and almost wiped out the entire male population. I'm sure resentment
      ran high for decades after that.

      The region of Melanesia also encompasses PICs like Papua New Guinea (PNG), Fiji, Vanuatu, New Caledonia and Solomon Islands.
      I guess people often associate the term Melanesia with our aboriginal brothers and sisters of Australia because they're the only groups they can easily identify.

    What did "Carlos" expect? Cuba was first populated by native Americans and then by Spaniards and other European colonisators plus African slaves. And for example, Spain itself is a melting pot of Celtic, Germanic, and Arabic ancestors. Apart from this Spain was over centuries a part of the multi racial and multi cultural Roman Empire. So, a modern Cuban is a mixture of all of these. Surprise, surprise!

      There are plenty of cases in all the world that show most MEN WERE NEVER PREJUDICED, they would have sex with any woman, regardless of color or status. Men in power, for example: Many slave overseers, or some in “management” of a farm or plantation would have sex with slave women. Most of them treated them as slaves in the day & as sex workers at night, or whenever they wanted.
      Very Famous Case: Thomas Jefferson & Sally Hemings. There is info online you can read. There have been cases of this in every part of the earth.
      This has been so prevalent through history that it is now widely recognized. Also, nearly all people of color in US find a percentage of European ancestry when they examine their DNA, some a quite high percentage. Although many have considered themselves Black, now that DNA testing is available, they now know they are a higher percentage of White / Caucasian than Black.
      Considering what took place throughout history, it is actually no surprise at all!
