It's not that we're afraid it's the fact a lot of us African Americans lost our connection to Africa so some just don't feel any reason to visit if that makes sense
Dude FBAs land is American, we don't care about this African propaganda, we focus on our group! Africans aren't gonna fight White Supremacy and they undermine FBAs constantly to white people..we are good! We aren't here to take care of Africans and fuel their economy, they need to get their people out of Europe to go!#FBA
My problem with that is . Why are whites all over the place all over africa visiting and enjoying all this greatness . Sounds like self hate if you dont miss where your ancestors came from. Even those who claim to be from America and their ancestors not being taken as slaves, most of your ancestors are from the congo cos thousands of years before slavery, people from Congo were traveling across the atlantic and it was a dream for young men to adventure . The stories even enticed a to be king like Mansa Musa s oldest brother who was supposed to be king to forfit his kingship and choose adventure. So still their ancestors are from Africa
I’ve been watching for a while and I must say you guys are doing a splendid job. Agaba & Oshay both bring a lot to this podcast…You’re wisdom and eloquence is refreshing. Great insight. Joanita is a great host. Great balance and I’m so inspired to come home at some point. Keep up the great work
@duke...The gemstones in Joanita's earrings matches her blouse perfectly...and the braids she is 'sporting' really accentuates her royal facial features and beautifully aligned teeth! 🖤❤️💛
@@Silverbackugx ...thank you for asking...allow me to explain...since I joined the Kenganda family, I was jealous of two things...1. The way Duke sets and switches the formats to his podcasts, while covering a variety of topics...and 2 his co-,host Joanita Maaya. As a man 'silver' each of us has our own personal likes in a woman. When I look at her on the podcasts, she is very beautiful to me...almost royal like...she can get 'hood' but she can get professional too. So, as a Black Man in America, to an African American Man in Uganda...when you point out the beauty and details of a woman to a man who sees her every day means that you really like her and that you are checking her out. To be honest with you it doesn't matter to me if Duke... or you even...are responsible for her wardrobe. She is a gorgeous, intelligent, vivacious, dark complexioned woman that I liike looking at and listening too! Did that make sense to you, if not run it by Duke, he'll explain it better! Oh and by the way, her smile is infectious!
I don't know about uncle's and father's buying daughter's, or what that means, but I don't disrespect Black women...I only complement them!

Many of us dont have the connection to Africa as some do. Would i visit, yes. But America is my home, and making it better for Black Americans is my first concern.
Yes I believe you are America 🇺🇸 is your home!!!! But I want you to know about African,black American came from African.If you have Children you must prepare the,future of your family 👪 You can buy Land in African countries Build Home have farming,If You have your Old Father and mother you can put them in because are old every six 6⃣ months you can visit your home and your family 👪 To see grandma and grandad,.and your Farm!!! If one of your family died you bring body to your home on your land.
Yea, it's interesting I've traveled all over the world, not 70 countries yet but a good 20+ lol, Yet none of them in Africa. I think a part of it is a underlining fear of all fo the propaganda Ive seen/heared that unlike for other regions of the world stuck for Africa, granted I'm None religious and Bi but I've traveled to Saudi and Indonesia alone, Stayed in the Favella's of Rio and no problems just great food, great memories and great people.

I was in South African in 2017 and stayed in Sandton, right across from Mandela Square. It's a bougie area of Joburg and very nice. I have no interest in C ape Town, as it is hyper Europeanized. I think the reason people choose places like Ghana over S.A. is for the fact that it is 80% controlled by white wealth. Black people have no control over wealth in S.A., and especially in epicenters like Johannesburg and Cape Town. ANC and Presidential leadership since Mandela has been black, but all the wealth has been in the hands of Afrikaaners, so they don 't mind yielding political power to blacks. I was in Joburg for about 11 days and got around pretty well. I visited the Guyanese Embassy (High Commission) in Pretoria and other places, but did not do safari. Don't care for animal sight-seeing.. I had no problem walking around, but I also did not stray far from the hotel, other than going to Pretoria, and that was an accompanied trip organized by the Honorary Consul of Guyana in Joburg. Everyone I met was super friendly and I made some long lasting friendships from that trip. Like Gabs mentioned, I was definitely hit with over-priced merchandise from some Zulu vendors on the street near my hotel. I knew they were overcharging me, but I was cool with it. On my return, I wish to visit Durban, which I saw recently is getting gentrified. With whites controlling all the wealth, blacks continue to be pushed out of prime areas, which is damn sad. When I tell Africans S.A. is the only Africn country I visited, they say "you haven't visited Africa." They always recommend Ghana, Kenya, Uganda, Botswana, Gambia, or Tanzania. So, I can see why Ghana is a more desired destination than S.A. for what I mentioned. Blessings.
‼️ Allowing price hikes HELPS not only build that hegemony but ALSO helps worsen the colonized mindset AND system ‼️ It’s WAY more important and impacts FAR greater / wider than it appears.

Around 460 million people Poverty is a widespread issue across Africa. Around 460 million people on the continent were living below the extreme poverty line. Since the continent had approximately 1.4 billion inhabitants, roughly a third of Africa's population was in extreme poverty that year
African Head of States in general ,not interested in eliminated poverty. Corruption is out of control, however you have Heads of States trying. With the population it's not gonna happen overnight.
@@knowthyself903 In the United States, about 21% of African Americans, out of a total population of 41.2 million people, live below the poverty line. This is a significant and alarming statistic. In contrast, Africa as a whole has 38% of its total population living in poverty. Interestingly, the only African population that has a more equal distribution of wealth in terms of median wealth are those of African descent who were born and raised in Europe. This might be because of the countries they live in, where social mobility leads to a more equitable distribution of wealth compared to other African populations.
It's true that Ghana has done a good marketing job attracting diasporans. South Africa had a slow start but now I think we are number two, we have a growing number of South African Americans who are relocating to SA. Some have travel & tourism companies spreading the word about SA and we get along very well and we are loving having them here🙂.
Number 1 Ghana, number 2 Tanzania, number 3 south africa.,number 4 rwanda, number 5 Sierra Leone. Am glad they are spreading. More and more are going to Zambia too. South African american?American?? Lol
Malaria you jist take prophylaxis. Never heard of any foreighner die of any of our common diseases. Sanitation is personal. But there is running water in all places a foreighner would live . Electricity is only a problem in south africa and nigeria maybe. But solar for 2000 dollars will fixyour problems for life anyways. All cities and towns have all these necessities. Havent you seen the videos shown to you by these guuys. Life is the same in all cities around the world But the rural places is where they are not. But no african american lives there
All the diseases here come from bill Gates and the big multinationals what you guys call fortune 500 companies Africa is ok in all those departments stop listening to MAINTSTREAM MEDIA IN AMERICA
Americans in general and AA in particular are over-fed and literally consumed in and by "poverty porn"about Africa. It's just one of the most effective ways to perpetuate the disconnect between AA & Africans for the simple reasons you may imagine.
The guy in the black shirt said, he has never been discriminated against, but said he over charged for fruits because he's an American. Then the lady confirmed that Oshay got treated differently because he's an American. These guys need to stop being biased about Africa and America. They all use the same talking points about, worrying about the police killing them. I don't worry about the police when leaving my house. Are you implying the African police don't have shooting?
I have seen tick tockers ask Americans random question about Africa whether white or black and simple as naming 5 African countries and most of them can't.. makes me question your education system 🇰🇪🇰🇪
I live in Africa and I pay school fees for some young people, I don't have to question anything. Africas school system. IT is backward and irrelevant. Asking Americans to name five countries is Africa when America in general doesn't give two s#!+s about Africa is pointless. On the other hand when you ask average street street boys IN AFRICA to name five countries and they cannot on THEIR OWN continent, it speaks alot more about your systems than it does about people who have no interest in you anyway. That's not from Tic Tic ...its from real everyday life😘
@@SilverbackugxI mean of course they’re street kids, but hasn’t Harvard university lost to Ugandan high schoolers in Chess and debates for 3 years in a role
@@Silverbackugx whatt? In high school we sturdy north american geography and all the major industries in a thr big ststes, we study the canadian priries. We study about europes geography and the rinelands areas . Then we study about china and its industries. Thats in juniour high its a must. So unless you dont go to junior high. But our education involves having alot of information in your head and reading books and having every single sentence in your head. Its called cramming from childhood 4-5 years old . We can sit for hours with our eyes stuck in large books while americans are just jumping around and cant sit down for hours doing book work.
@@rickyreward226 Who has a modern infrastructure and who can't keep the lights on. I live in Africa and wouldn't trust your electricians to change a light bulb nor your mechanics to inflate a tire. Your plumbers are good at digging a hole in the ground to squat over and s#!+. Until you actually build a country, you can't talk about the worth of your schools. They certainly don't teach spelling and not once did you mention them teaching you ANYTHING about your OWN history and people. Canada, Europe, Rhineland, no wonder you can't do anything for yourself.
Good decent young man and its too bad he missed the Africa of like 30 years ago without any of the babylon toxic culture, ignorance and alien poisen of today's Africa
I 💯 agree with brother Agaba on the South Africa thing, I wanted to move there to start a business but I was pushed back by the situation of xenophobia
People. When I’m Africa , Brazil or the Dominican Republic. Dress like the natives and pretend you are DEAF! You will get the correct PRICE. Works flawlessly. I did it all the time living in those places
What is the World Bank Africa outlook for 2023? Economic growth in Sub-Saharan Africa is set to slow from 3.6% in 2022 to 3.1% in 2023, according to the latest Africa's Pulse, the World Bank's April 2023 economic update for Sub-Saharan Africa.Apr 5, 2023
Dont matter the economic growth. The most important thing is there are more opportunities. Especially if you want to become a business owner . But its not a place for job seekers. The man power and resources are there. So come invest and make profits
thank you for this conversation it is not easy to share your personal view and story, but you need to take in mind that not all of African emigrants' households have the same story back home. my father had to flee for is life's and find shelter .... Africa wasn't seen as a place to lookback for.... in some countries there is steel bloody conflicts, big emigration to Europe why don't you take any considerations in these topics.
34:24 Why do ppl choose Ghana over South Africa? I DO NOT WANT TO GO TO SOUTH AFRICA. Knowing that Caucasians still own everything there, I don't want to give them money.
Among other reasons, Africa needs the Diasporans to get a headstart in economic revival. The Diaspora needs Africa to reclaim our heritage and to become stronger spiritually and economically. Working in unison, we can reclaim the historic greatness that was interrupted and stolen by the Mzungus.
THIS AINT IT. African Americans/ADOS aint "terrified" of visiting Africa. This title alone is getting intonthe old school "search for Uhuruh" grift back. You aint gotta do all that. Just keep doing positive content.
I understand Gabs' frustration, but yes, he is an Ambassador, albeit unofficially. It is like me selling Guyana. I am not appointed by the government, but I enjoy speaking about Guyana and selling it to non-Guyanese. We have been bombarded with negative images and propaganda about Africa, so we have to understand the ignorance African Americans have. Coming from Guyana, I got into many fights when I first arrive, and that is from black kids looking at me as an inferior, with all the names I was called. So, yes, the unofficial Ambassador role is bestowed upon us to recondition the minds of those who have a negative thought process about Africa. No strenuous effort to be made, but direct them in a direction where they can learn. Blessings.
The answer to your question Oshay to why Ghana and Tanzania number 1 for diaspora is their location. They’re on the coast. Most Americans live in land due to price and we tend to glorify the beaches and the coast.
Oshay please and please again, the local people in Ghana do not shop or eat where these African American brothers and sisters be chilling ok. The locals are happy to see their brothers and sisters and that's it. Does their presence bring money to the Ghana economy? Heck yeah! Will some unscrupolous persons try to take advantage? Of course yes, but that is not only practiced in Ghana but the whole world sadly.
"Hmm! If you do something wrong to Nigerians, you're going to have to deal with us (African Americans and vice versa). As a Nigerian, I appreciate what that young man said because that's what white people do, hence the NATO alliance, even though they don't speak the same language."
28:00 - first documented enslaved Group were of Mbundu tribe -speak kimbundu. On august 20,1619 in VA. First 100 years only ppl of Mbundu & bakongo 🇦🇴🇨🇩 was enslaved in usa. Hence why some usa prisons are named angola prison…. Or congo square or AA folklore written by ancestors was about a man in congo..slave port left Luanda angola. Dropping ppl off in va, sc or lousiana. Then the west African slave trade began. Mostly they took west Africans to islands & then to USA but some were taken directly as well.
Sir Black Americans don't care if Africans don't like us or not, we don't give a darn, Can you'll talk more about Afro Brazilians, Afro Caribbean and other ''diasporians''? Like I said before America is our homeland and motherland, majority of Black Americans are staying in America, please leave us alone, every time I come to this channel it's always talking about Black Americans, we need a break from people constantly discussing us.
Self hate is like cancer it will eat you up. Oh my sorry for you if you feel that way. Africa if your home. The currents of the Atlantic either took your ancestors who wanted like it was for thousands of years yo adventure on boats across . Or were taken by the slave trade. So still your ancestors came from Africa. You will never know where your going if you dont know where you came from. You came from Africa
I always read your comments about this topic and I find them so delusional..You need to find love in your heart and stop living with that hate in your heart.
Please stop using African Americans as click bait to get views. You are creating and fueling negative sentiments about us based on a handful of youtubers you choose clips from. One just needs to read the comments on your videos to see the effect.
@@iTuber012 would you have rather heard? YES SUH boss. Whatever you say since you pay the bills for this podcast? You don't contribute a dime over here sir so until you do, then you can't tell nobody what to do over here.
False why would you go help them when your real family and friends are in America? It's 2023 nobody is wasting money with government that is controlled by other nations of people. Africa is cool. Half of the population is poor.if Africa is not helping Thier own why would they use? Real life
We help Africa because Africa is the land of our ancestors and had it not been for those people who gave birth to our ancestors we would not be here today! You never hear europeans say such nonsense about Europe and many many of them no longer have any family or kin on the European continent but yet they support Europe and everything european! Black people are so ignorant and stupid until it's no longer funny! Thanks to my grandmother for teaching me to respect the people who look like me! And she always reminded me that WE come from Africa through our ancestors! God Bless Africa and the African people cause they are my family!
Here we go again with oppressors narratives on Africa I'm in my 10th Africa country now and I don't buy this shit anymore Africans are hardworking hustlers and very happy people with the little they have and they're content
In Africa One third of population is poor , America 11% is poor, these are just numbers, I wouldn't trade my places with anybody in the west,I love my country Tanzania and Africa, here I can become what I want to be.
@@haywardmccullough2762 I don’t think it’s about black people being “ignorant and stupid”….it’s okay for people to have differences in thought. Humanity began in Africa, so to use the argument of having ancestral ties can literally be used by anyone on the planet. Some just don’t feel connected to the continent and that’s okay.
That was a full blown Black attack on that sister from the last video. She told the truth and got the classic side step, zero accountability, and whatever about America bullshit that haters and ignorant default to. A small clip from a nearly year old video was taken completely out of context and the gas lighting began. It was a free for all of justifying corruption, bad behavior, and "This is Africa" backwardness.
@@lennylink8772 hold on now, you can bring smoke for the content, but you can't come for my homeboy..even though he's west coast and I'm country NC..I can assure you his Ninja wake up alarm clock has gone off several times along his journey. He is doing what most Black Americans WILL not do by investing in a country that as yet gives him NOTHING back except the personal satisfaction and reward of seeing others do well. Uganda doesn't offer Black Americans any compensatory incentive to do ANYTHING but enjoy the peace and quiet. When and if they offer reasonable citizenship criteria or simply the right to abode, they will see and experience the benefits of people coming with their own, not refugees that they have to subsidize.
@@NiceandhappyO3but shouldn’t competing propositions be idea for an honest and just society? Why mute anyone? Not democratic… you are spreading hate in principle.
Slave trade was all over in Africa for over 500 years. Angola and Congo were the epicentre. In most ancient coastal cities of Africa South, West and East Africa slaver trade was documented over 500 years ago with complete holding cells for the slaves in those coastal Ports

By then you should have learned to negotiate like the locals, or just go where you know the price is fair.

That's not always possible, if you're in a hurry and need to get stuff done the last thing you want to do is haggle with a boda boda driver. I've had to walk because people refused to pick me up for the local price.

This was a well done episode 👏👏👏👏!
Great discussion. Really enjoyed this one. ✊🏾😔
Around 460 million people
Poverty is a widespread issue across Africa. Around 460 million people on the continent were living below the extreme poverty line. Since the continent had approximately 1.4 billion inhabitants, roughly a third of Africa's population was in extreme poverty that year
African Head of States in general ,not interested in eliminated poverty. Corruption is out of control, however you have Heads of States trying. With the population it's not gonna happen overnight.
Facts the people in Africa put to much trust in the government
@@knowthyself903 In the United States, about 21% of African Americans, out of a total population of 41.2 million people, live below the poverty line. This is a significant and alarming statistic. In contrast, Africa as a whole has 38% of its total population living in poverty.
Interestingly, the only African population that has a more equal distribution of wealth in terms of median wealth are those of African descent who were born and raised in Europe. This might be because of the countries they live in, where social mobility leads to a more equitable distribution of wealth compared to other African populations.
Difference is most Africans have family land which is a big difference, they might not have lots of money but they got property
@lawbsk1048 most of that land is drought stricken and not good for growing and vegetation. But hey I guess it counts for something
Another one great podcast watching from Miami
Great show, I enjoyed it. This is another classic
It's true that Ghana has done a good marketing job attracting diasporans. South Africa had a slow start but now I think we are number two, we have a growing number of South African Americans who are relocating to SA. Some have travel & tourism companies spreading the word about SA and we get along very well and we are loving having them here🙂.
Number 1 Ghana, number 2 Tanzania, number 3 south africa.,number 4 rwanda, number 5 Sierra Leone. Am glad they are spreading. More and more are going to Zambia too.
South African american?American?? Lol
Just to clarify South African Americans or African Americans relocating?
@@africaine4889 Yes, they call themselves South African Americans🙂.
@@xolisangcengedizzyworld lol ok
@@jermainenowels9511 it's african amercan or BA relocating to south africa
What about the diseases? The sanitation? The water?
Lack of stable electricity.... Americans freak with this one
Malaria you jist take prophylaxis. Never heard of any foreighner die of any of our common diseases.
Sanitation is personal. But there is running water in all places a foreighner would live . Electricity is only a problem in south africa and nigeria maybe. But solar for 2000 dollars will fixyour problems for life anyways.
All cities and towns have all these necessities. Havent you seen the videos shown to you by these guuys. Life is the same in all cities around the world
But the rural places is where they are not. But no african american lives there
All the diseases here come from bill Gates and the big multinationals what you guys call fortune 500 companies Africa is ok in all those departments stop listening to MAINTSTREAM MEDIA IN AMERICA
I'm mad 😡😡😡😡😡 loosing it Cox lm 🇰🇪🇨🇦but East Africa family all over
APPRECIATE IT
Love love love this conversation. 17:40 .. on point🔥
Great job Agaba!
Americans in general and AA in particular are over-fed and literally consumed in and by "poverty porn"about Africa. It's just one of the most effective ways to perpetuate the disconnect between AA & Africans for the simple reasons you may imagine.
Good episode
The guy in the black shirt said, he has never been discriminated against, but said he over charged for fruits because he's an American. Then the lady confirmed that Oshay got treated differently because he's an American. These guys need to stop being biased about Africa and America. They all use the same talking points about, worrying about the police killing them. I don't worry about the police when leaving my house. Are you implying the African police don't have shooting?
is safe Owen's salute Cape town is wa j loep 👍👍
I have seen tick tockers ask Americans random question about Africa whether white or black and simple as naming 5 African countries and most of them can't.. makes me question your education system 🇰🇪🇰🇪
I live in Africa and I pay school fees for some young people, I don't have to question anything. Africas school system. IT is backward and irrelevant. Asking Americans to name five countries is Africa when America in general doesn't give two s#!+s about Africa is pointless. On the other hand when you ask average street street boys IN AFRICA to name five countries and they cannot on THEIR OWN continent, it speaks alot more about your systems than it does about people who have no interest in you anyway. That's not from Tic Tic ...its from real everyday life😘
@@Silverbackugx Facts!
@@SilverbackugxI mean of course they’re street kids, but hasn’t Harvard university lost to Ugandan high schoolers in Chess and debates for 3 years in a role
@@Silverbackugx whatt? In high school we sturdy north american geography and all the major industries in a thr big ststes, we study the canadian priries. We study about europes geography and the rinelands areas . Then we study about china and its industries. Thats in juniour high its a must.
So unless you dont go to junior high.
But our education involves having alot of information in your head and reading books and having every single sentence in your head. Its called cramming from childhood 4-5 years old . We can sit for hours with our eyes stuck in large books while americans are just jumping around and cant sit down for hours doing book work.
@@rickyreward226 Who has a modern infrastructure and who can't keep the lights on. I live in Africa and wouldn't trust your electricians to change a light bulb nor your mechanics to inflate a tire. Your plumbers are good at digging a hole in the ground to squat over and s#!+. Until you actually build a country, you can't talk about the worth of your schools. They certainly don't teach spelling and not once did you mention them teaching you ANYTHING about your OWN history and people. Canada, Europe, Rhineland, no wonder you can't do anything for yourself.
33:18 ❤ he went in❤
Good decent young man and its too bad he missed the Africa of like 30 years ago without any of the babylon toxic culture, ignorance and alien poisen of today's Africa
I 💯 agree with brother Agaba on the South Africa thing, I wanted to move there to start a business but I was pushed back by the situation of xenophobia
This young brother has his head on straight.
Taye seems to be Nigerian name typically associated with being a twin. In Nigeria, it is commonly spelled as "Taiye."
Second name is swahili meaning freedom seems the name hand picked to meaning something
Yeah! You are right. Taye is a name from south western part of Nigeria - the Yoruba ethnic group to be precise. His ancestors may have Nigerian roots.
To be fair being naked is not a sign of being uncivilized.
The guy from WVA. Is he talking about the normal in Africa or the minority with all the wealth he's talking about?
33:00 time line. This young man had spoken very well.
I have been looking for this Whatsapp link; don’t see in the description
People. When I’m Africa , Brazil or the Dominican Republic. Dress like the natives and pretend you are DEAF! You will get the correct PRICE. Works flawlessly. I did it all the time living in those places
Ghana is the only country that's opening it's doors to those of African diaspora
What is the World Bank Africa outlook for 2023?
Economic growth in Sub-Saharan Africa is set to slow from 3.6% in 2022 to 3.1% in 2023, according to the latest Africa's Pulse, the World Bank's April 2023 economic update for Sub-Saharan Africa.Apr 5, 2023
Dont matter the economic growth. The most important thing is there are more opportunities. Especially if you want to become a business owner . But its not a place for job seekers. The man power and resources are there. So come invest and make profits
thank you for this conversation it is not easy to share your personal view and story, but you need to take in mind that not all of African emigrants' households have the same story back home. my father had to flee for is life's and find shelter .... Africa wasn't seen as a place to lookback for.... in some countries there is steel bloody conflicts, big emigration to Europe why don't you take any considerations in these topics.
#Afrikansuperstar ✊🏿
34:24 Why do ppl choose Ghana over South Africa? I DO NOT WANT TO GO TO SOUTH AFRICA. Knowing that Caucasians still own everything there, I don't want to give them money.
Among other reasons, Africa needs the Diasporans to get a headstart in economic revival.
The Diaspora needs Africa to reclaim our heritage and to become stronger spiritually and economically.
Working in unison, we can reclaim the historic greatness that was interrupted and stolen by the Mzungus.
THIS AINT IT. African Americans/ADOS aint "terrified" of visiting Africa. This title alone is getting intonthe old school "search for Uhuruh" grift back. You aint gotta do all that. Just keep doing positive content.
I love that profile pic...why didn't I think of that!?
Proof you didn’t listen to the podcast lol
please be more specific about how African countries can 'do better welcoming people from the diaspora'.
I understand Gabs' frustration, but yes, he is an Ambassador, albeit unofficially. It is like me selling Guyana. I am not appointed by the government, but I enjoy speaking about Guyana and selling it to non-Guyanese. We have been bombarded with negative images and propaganda about Africa, so we have to understand the ignorance African Americans have. Coming from Guyana, I got into many fights when I first arrive, and that is from black kids looking at me as an inferior, with all the names I was called. So, yes, the unofficial Ambassador role is bestowed upon us to recondition the minds of those who have a negative thought process about Africa. No strenuous effort to be made, but direct them in a direction where they can learn. Blessings.
The answer to your question Oshay to why Ghana and Tanzania number 1 for diaspora is their location. They’re on the coast. Most Americans live in land due to price and we tend to glorify the beaches and the coast.
But for real though, no one was taken from the southern Africa. We had our own problems at that time but slavery was not it.
I wanna hear this.
Guys don't forget Angola ...
Oshay please and please again, the local people in Ghana do not shop or eat where these African American brothers and sisters be chilling ok. The locals are happy to see their brothers and sisters and that's it. Does their presence bring money to the Ghana economy? Heck yeah! Will some unscrupolous persons try to take advantage? Of course yes, but that is not only practiced in Ghana but the whole world sadly.
I don’t see the whatsapp group

"Hmm! If you do something wrong to Nigerians, you're going to have to deal with us (African Americans and vice versa). As a Nigerian, I appreciate what that young man said because that's what white people do, hence the NATO alliance, even though they don't speak the same language."
Africa is the sun the diaspora are the rays if the rays don’t shine then that means the sun is not shining
28:00 - first documented enslaved Group were of Mbundu tribe -speak kimbundu. On august 20,1619 in VA. First 100 years only ppl of Mbundu & bakongo 🇦🇴🇨🇩 was enslaved in usa. Hence why some usa prisons are named angola prison…. Or congo square or AA folklore written by ancestors was about a man in congo..slave port left Luanda angola. Dropping ppl off in va, sc or lousiana.
Then the west African slave trade began. Mostly they took west Africans to islands & then to USA but some were taken directly as well.

Sir Black Americans don't care if Africans don't like us or not, we don't give a darn, Can you'll talk more about Afro Brazilians, Afro Caribbean and other ''diasporians''? Like I said before America is our homeland and motherland, majority of Black Americans are staying in America, please leave us alone, every time I come to this channel it's always talking about Black Americans, we need a break from people constantly discussing us.
You don’t have to watch if you don’t like it

Self hate is like cancer it will eat you up. Oh my sorry for you if you feel that way. Africa if your home. The currents of the Atlantic either took your ancestors who wanted like it was for thousands of years yo adventure on boats across . Or were taken by the slave trade. So still your ancestors came from Africa. You will never know where your going if you dont know where you came from. You came from Africa
Nobody wants you in Africa. Stay with Massa and shut up . What right have you to tell someone how he runs his program.

False why would you go help them when your real family and friends are in America? It's 2023 nobody is wasting money with government that is controlled by other nations of people. Africa is cool. Half of the population is poor.if Africa is not helping Thier own why would they use? Real life
We help Africa because Africa is the land of our ancestors and had it not been for those people who gave birth to our ancestors we would not be here today! You never hear europeans say such nonsense about Europe and many many of them no longer have any family or kin on the European continent but yet they support Europe and everything european! Black people are so ignorant and stupid until it's no longer funny! Thanks to my grandmother for teaching me to respect the people who look like me! And she always reminded me that WE come from Africa through our ancestors! God Bless Africa and the African people cause they are my family!

@@haywardmccullough2762 I don’t think it’s about black people being “ignorant and stupid”….it’s okay for people to have differences in thought. Humanity began in Africa, so to use the argument of having ancestral ties can literally be used by anyone on the planet. Some just don’t feel connected to the continent and that’s okay.

You guys change your format to attacking black americans now and doing victim shaming. Disgraceful.
That was a full blown Black attack on that sister from the last video. She told the truth and got the classic side step, zero accountability, and whatever about America bullshit that haters and ignorant default to. A small clip from a nearly year old video was taken completely out of context and the gas lighting began. It was a free for all of justifying corruption, bad behavior, and "This is Africa" backwardness.

Uganda doesn't offer Black Americans any compensatory incentive to do ANYTHING but enjoy the peace and quiet.

East Africans are not close lineage stop it AA are Bantu west Africans
Yeah I don't know where he got that information from
Slave trade was all over in Africa for over 500 years. Angola and Congo were the epicentre. In most ancient coastal cities of Africa South, West and East Africa slaver trade was documented over 500 years ago with complete holding cells for the slaves in those coastal Ports
but bantus everywhere in africa are the same people, east, west, south, North, Central
Wait until you find out that East Africa has Bantu also
Black Americans tend to be obsessed with Ethiopians (what they will say is East Africa).
