I have been to Africa almost 3 dozen times Ghana, South Africa , Ethiopia , Egypt, Benin, Togo , Ivory Coast . Most of my trips to Ghana and South Africa , I will be in South Africa this December 2024 and was in Ghana last December 2023. If I had a negative opinion of Africa it left since I was 13 years old even though I watched Tarzan movies on tv lol. I unofficially adopted 4 young ladies in Ghana and 2 in South Africa in the early 1990’s this is why I mostly go to Ghana and South Africa to see my daughters and grand children
So proud of you Ivy. Keep going FOREVER!!!!!!!...........I am so called African-American from Newark, New Jersey who is 54 years old. ( I say so-called African-American because I am AFRICAN).... I can say that I am soooo lucky and blessed to have had parents who spoke about this EVERYDAY in my household growing up in the 1970's, 1980's and 1990's!!!! 😄✊🏿
Jay Cameron made a good point about how us in the diaspora were brainwashed and indoctrinated with the colonialist values and culture. For me, it took me years to get rid of the colorist mentally. Now, after years of research and self learned education I appreciate melanin. However, I am not perfect. I am still learning. Peace
@@DonaldJegedeNot as Bad as Afrikans still have their culture intact, can’t compare about 60 years of colonisation to 500 years and counting, it’s generational trauma
Many Africans are also brainwashed and indoctrinated with the colonialist mindset. This is evident in much of the older leadership. As a kid, I was extremely curious and I studied ancient history, mythology and geography a lot. Africa was always mysterious & exotic to me. I knew Egypt was in Africa I remember my older sister telling me about Kings & Queens in Africa. My teacher showed us photos of African kings being crowned in elaborate ceremonies.
I absolutely love Jay Cameron. His energy is illuminating. He's waking up so many African Americans. I don't understand how African Americans could object to other African Americans moving or visiting Africa. They congratulate African Americans who move to Portugal, and they pioneered the European slave trade. I appreciate this conversation, and I hope it gets millions of views and likes.
The reason why other African Americans discourage others is because of the LIES they've been told about Africa. You have to keep in mind that America is the LAND Of PROPAGANDA LIESand! America has mastered the art of propaganda that they continuously BOMBARD the citizens with lies. So the people believe everything they are told. That is why Americans are very IGNORANT about the whole world, including Africa. If you live in the US and you were not born there, you will hear the citizens ask stupid questions that no one should ever ask...especially now that the lnternet is available to do research and find out the truth. For example, a lady said to me, if we don't have cars in Africa, how do we go around? I just couldn't believe the insult. And when l embarrassed and told her that people not only drive cars like in the US but there are those who can afford a luxury car, she was confused and dumbfounded. I showed her some UA-cam videos about African countries, and she realized how stupid she was because of her ignorance. But l don't blame her. It's the USELESS media that we see in America who are not interested in telling the TRUTH but spread LIES and PROPAGANDA! And why does the media tell so MANY lies about Africa and the rest of the world? It's very simple. The citizens have been BRAINWASHED to believe that America is the best country in the world. So the media has to keep the lies going, in order to discourage the citizens from traveling and see if it's true that America is really the best country like the are told, so they just stay in America and never travel. That's why l respect what Jay is doing by bringing black people from America to Africa so they can see for themselves that they have been lied to.
Africans were not the first or the last people enslaved by euro-pee-ons. My point: Let’s not allow -historians- story tellers make African people the only face of slavery. They do this to make us feel second class and inferior. This shame is what makes us not want to reconnect with Africa…the land and its people.
There is nowhere in the world like Africa. It is also the richest continent with many countries all with great cities, natural resources and fantastic landscapes. It is also blessed with a large population of brilliant young people.
We need part 2 of this conversation with jay again and some Caribbeans, those from UK, Canada, African American and Strong pan African from Ghana and other one African countries
Bro Jay, I never met you, but I love you! You are keeping it a stack! I visited Ghana in 2020, then got dual citizenship for my wife and kids in Sierra Leone in 2022 and made it to Kemet in 2023. Each trip has been a life changer. Maybe we can travel with you one of these days. Thank you for all you do.
Great job , Ivy . Some people use their channel for nonsense , and ' trash-talk ' Africa , you are using yours to shine light on Africa . Well done . Up for dinner ?
@@IvyProsperThey actually originate from us, Kemet or ancient Egypt. If you can find the book titled LE FABULEUX HERITAGE DE L'EGYPTE by Christiane Deroches Noblecourt you will find the pictures there.
The same happened to me when I got off the plane in Lagos. If I had listened to USA's negative campaign on Nigeria, I wouldn't have experienced the most wonderful time in my life! I was safe, the people were kind and wonderful. I loved the markets and culture. Nobody was on welfare. Everyone contributed.... and the Nigerians are brilliant and innovative. The beaches were magnificent!
So many gems here, a book can be written! But about Saint Catherine’s. Down here in the United States we are taught about Harriet Tubman and we are taught that she ended up in Canada. It wasn't until I visited St. Catherine’s as an adult on a trip to Niagara Falls that the people up there expressed their pride that Harriet Tubman planted 2 churches and built 2 communities up there! So we adjusted our trip so that we could visit all the sites. It was outstanding! Harriet Tubman was infinitely more than a name in a history book.
Thanks @Ivyprosper for that education of Harriet Tubman. I live in Halifax, Nova Scotia and used to see the underground rail bits and pieces on TV but only at commercial time. So sad this brave woman is not taught in Schools. I too keep the $10 bill with Viola Desmond.
This is an awesome video, thank you ❤! My trips to Africa started in 2012 : Kenya 🇰🇪 and Ghana 🇬🇭 so far , and God willing Tanzania 🇹🇿 next year ! This has changed my life forever ❤. I don’t wanna stop traveling this beautiful continent. Live more and learn more !
Two of my favorites. While I've never met Jay but we have had our share of back and forth in the comments. I met Ivory at a restaurant in Ghana 🇬🇭 and we took pictures, and she knows me through my comments on her UA-cam channel. This is a great dialog and conversation. 😊
@@IvyProsperthe black colleges were named after white abolitionist. It's possible they may have funded the colleges because they were also wealthy. Spelman was named after someone in the Rockefeller family.
You are right @Jaycameron we are everywhere and so is our art. Yes, I remember attending school in Uganda and we were never encouraged to speak our local languages. We actually got demerits for it. I am glad people are beginning to wake up and keep up with your platforms as you reach out to a lot more.
@@IvyProsper slaves were sent from Jamaica to Nova Scotia. The black population there are related to Jamaicans. I'm not sure of other islands sent slaves too
It id how backward Southern schools are. We learned all of this by the time we were 18 in 1971. In NYC we ;learned history. I am 71 years old. We read Chinua Achebe, Thinks Fall Apart and Arrow of God. I read all of Nkrumah’s books. Africa Must Unite, Neocolonialism the last state of Imperialism, Dark Days in Ghana and Conciousism. We met leadership from various African Liberation Movements. I took 11 African Studies courses. I last pledged allegiance when I was in the 8th grade. We protested the War in Vietnam as teenagers.
Ivy, l think this is The Best interview l have watched you do, l have learned so much history as a Black British born Ghanaian. God Bless you Both. Amen
Listening to this interview felt deeply personal and enlightening, as it touched on themes of tradition and the African Diaspora that resonate with my own experiences. The discussion brought forward the complex layers of cultural transitions, showing how colonial influences have left an indelible mark on African identity-from language to family structures. It reminded me of the delicate balance many of us face in honoring our heritage while adapting to new, global contexts. This conversation underscored the resilience within our communities and sparked a renewed appreciation for the journey of preserving culture amid change, thank you for sharing Ivy and Jay Cameron.👍
Ivory, this was absolutely fantastic! You and Jay are two of my favorite young Black people. This video was quite educational. I've forwarded it to several of my relatives, one who still has this profound ignorance about Africa. Thanks so much for this and keep bringing viewers such valuable content.
I really wish this conversation had no end. I have these conversations so often, so it was such a relief to hear it from someone else. Let's have group dialogues like this. Thank you.
African unit, I can't wait to see more come back home to Ghana. I'm not talking about Accra but to see the oil and golden city of Ghana ❤❤❤ I can't wait ❤❤❤❤
Hey Ivy, this is my first time of watching your program. Is very interesting and educational. I have tried to educate a lot of African Americans here in Atlanta about Africa, but you will be surprised that a lot of them are not even interested. I hope to ask them to watch your program. I am from Cameroon, and travel back home every year. So if you guys need to know any information about Cameroon, I would be delighted to share with you all. Has Jay ever been to Cameroon?
If he is interested, I would love to hook him up with friends and family to facilitate his travel and stay there. There are so many slave monuments and interesting sites to explore .
Question for you: which Cameroonian ethnic groups are so aware of their ancient Egyptian origins that actually they wear the Ankh sign instead of the Christian cross? I know there were Njoya hieroglyphics buy I don't know if they trace back to Kemet or ancient Egypt.
@@egbeeyong7327 it saddens me too when I hear an African American or diasporian say they are not interested in Africa. I am from Uganda and have met some African Americans who speak proudly of Idi Amin that just excites me. With people like @IvyProsper and @JayCameroon, the shift will happen in good time.
Egypt is not the only misconception when it comes to where it is located. Many modern day scholars do not know that there is no such place as Middle-East. This area too, according to ancient maps, historical books, and explorers documented records and maps, is part of Africa and is in truth North-East Africa. Just because a canal is built to divide the land does not change its geographical and historical association. The name Middle-East was coined out of the British-India Office during its colonization of the region in the 1950s and further emphasized widely when United States naval strategist Captain Alfred Thayer Mahan who designated the region to be called this, used the term in 1902 to impose it upon the rest of the world.
People also don’t know that the Original Egyptians are not the Arabs who we see today. The Nubians who were resettled to Aswan, Egypt are the descendants of the Pharaohs. Arab invasion kicked out the Greeks.
Welcome back home, JAY. I always listen to you and Ivy. As a Ghanaian, I am unlearning and learning because our grandparents and parents taught me most of the history. We had history lessons at school, most about West Africa. I love what you do and represent
Although I get the gist behind well intended Africans propagating such news, but Burkinabes never wore those things to begin with. It is Anglo oriented, hence you'll likely find english speaking African judicial personnel wearing them as opposed to french speaking Africans.
Could you please tell me which DNA that Jay Cameron used to discover his ancestors also I would love to travel to Africa on Jay Cameron excursion where could I get info about traveling to Africa . Where is this info available? Thank you fir your channel I have enjoyed your interview so much🙏🏽
I love your description of Africa and it’s many different cultures! I would love to explore the world!After listening to your interview with Jay Cameron, I felt enlightened and am looking forward to continue to chase my dreams! As an artist and poet, I would ❤️❤️❤️❤️to explore travel to Africa, and would like more information about planning a trip to Guiana… Please update me about how I can further pursue my quest…Thank you🤗🙏🏿😎
Hi Jay , you are very frank about your upbringing. I am eighty three years old, and have been through the same colorism in my family, too . I have seen mothers quash their children noose to make it smaller. I have Lots of stories to tell but time wont let me !!. Thanks.
Kudos to you @jaycameron for giving people confidence to travel those distances and learn for themselves. I am just listening and seeing how powerful it is as different generations make the trips together. ✊✊✊
Jamaicans have been told that too! "Don''t talk like that...". Interestingly enough, the Jamaican and Gullah Geechee creoles are very similar😊. It's our language to be proud of.💕🇯🇲🇨🇦
Not only black Americans treat Africans with disregard even some of us Africans don't treat other Africans with disregard especially travelling by road from African country to the other the amount hassle will encounter especially the franco speaking countries.
We know that exists, so what? Aren't there caucasians who disrespect other caucasians? The most bloody wars in human history happened between caucasians (WW 1 & 2). And the war happening now between Russians and Ukrainians is also between caucasians. And nobody ever said that we Africans don't have problems of our own. Yes we have many problems of our own and we ought to solve them. And this is the reason we came here on earth. Otherwize, why did you come here on earth to do what? Do I need to remind you that this earth is not a paradise?
It's said ..," A bird born in a cage thinks flying is a disease . " Maximum impact applies 100% to what's Jay is bringing us..the highs ,the lows ,the inspiration, the education, the re-education is forever evident. Jay has reminded us that the blood in our bodies isn't ours,but those of our ancestors...it's equivalent to having the ancestors. Say. " This one has made it back home. .."..

@@mohmhkBurkinabes need to OUTLAW that’s silly French language! Swahili is already a preferred language to more than 200M Afrikans 😊
@@section8ight174 I agree.
Wow i just luv Jay ! Anytime he opens his mouth I can't stop listening till the end!
AFRICA IS THE HOLLY LAND, AFRICA CALL HIS CHILDREN BACK, 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Africa is female , so it’s her people not his people. ❤
AA's talk exactly like Africans by expresion, laughing, gestures and language. We do the same
Thats right, the African, African-American connection.
Y'all are some weird people
@@boss-de8884 you are the weird one, we live like humans not robots
@@boss-de8884 your like robots with no human heart of kindness and empathy
@@boss-de8884Ya mama weird

Hi Jay , you are very frank about your upbringing. I am eighty three years old, and have been through the same colorism in my family, too . I have seen mothers quash their children noose to make it smaller. I have Lots of stories to tell but time wont let me !!. Thanks.
What does “quash their children’s noose” mean. Sorry this is interesting but these terms are confusing?
Good convo
Watching the replay. Great interview, Ivy. Thanks for
sharing your story, Jay.
Glad you enjoyed the conversation
Great great conversation! We need a part 2. Thank you both 🙏 .
CAN you visit schools in Ghana as well? Your story can change the mindset of the African youth, especially in the tertiary institutions.👍🏿
Love this ❤. Thank you both 🙏🏽
Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed it.
So informative session. Thanks!!
You're welcome
Thank you Ivy ❤
Kudos to you @jaycameron for giving people confidence to travel those distances and learn for themselves. I am just listening and seeing how powerful it is as different generations make the trips together. ✊✊✊
I'm so glad I watched this ! 🇬🇭🙂💯
Is good to help them to know learn about where yhere ancestors came from
Yes it is.
Jamaicans have been told that too! "Don''t talk like that...". Interestingly enough, the Jamaican and Gullah Geechee creoles are very similar😊. It's our language to be proud of.💕🇯🇲🇨🇦
The Gullahs have no connection to Jamaica. Definitely Barbados 🇧🇧 and maybe also the Bahamas.
Not only black Americans treat Africans with disregard even some of us Africans don't treat other Africans with disregard especially travelling by road from African country to the other the amount hassle will encounter especially the franco speaking countries.
We know that exists, so what? Aren't there caucasians who disrespect other caucasians? The most bloody wars in human history happened between caucasians (WW 1 & 2). And the war happening now between Russians and Ukrainians is also between caucasians. And nobody ever said that we Africans don't have problems of our own. Yes we have many problems of our own and we ought to solve them. And this is the reason we came here on earth. Otherwize, why did you come here on earth to do what? Do I need to remind you that this earth is not a paradise?
It's said ..," A bird born in a cage thinks flying is a disease . " Maximum impact applies 100% to what's Jay is bringing us..the highs ,the lows ,the inspiration, the education, the re-education is forever evident. Jay has reminded us that the blood in our bodies isn't ours,but those of our ancestors...it's equivalent to having the ancestors. Say. " This one has made it back home. .."..
"Change Your Life"
Can’t wait for Ghana 🇬🇭 the awakening
South Africa no longer requires judges and advocates to wear white wigs since October 30, 2005. but still correcting the judicial system
❤Excellent discussion Sid✨🙏🏿✨☀️💕✨
