As a Black American who just left Rwanda (Kigali and Kibagabaga) last month, I can say with certainty every Rwandan I met loved us. The ladies loved us too. We visited a few clubs, ate at some good restaurants we had a good time. Most of them can’t speak English well so this was a hurdle but don’t take these two women serious as ignorance is everywhere on this planet. I’ve been all over Africa from Kenya to Nigeria and can say the overwhelming MAJORITY of the ppl I’ve met LOVE us black Americans. Have never had an issue. Most are just ignorant to our history and culture like we are to theirs. B1 Family 💪 💯
I love your comment my Dear, You just gave me hope, As a Rwandese who lives in New York City, I was very surprised to hear my Rwanda sister 's intro then I wonder if she lives in USA maybe some brother or sister here missed behavior to her maybe that can be the reason why she said that, but I noticed that she is in RWANDA, definitely she doesn't know much about the history and everyday challenge of Black American. Maybe the lady is referring to the languages people use because they use to much F languages which in Kinyarwanda and Rwandan culture, we consider insults or miss behaviors, or somebody who are not polite.
As a Jamaican 🇯🇲 living in America 🇺🇸 I can say that young lady is misinformed she need to travel. Black Americans are one of the strongest most resilient people you will ever meet very brilliant and are some of the most beautiful black people on planet earth 🌍 until you’ve walked in their shoes you can’t really say anything. I love my Black American brothers and sisters. Notice I didn’t say African American. I refer to them as Black Americans or simply Americans even tho our roots are from African descendants. Aka Slaves. We’re black and proud. ✊🏽
I am FBA and there is no doubt in my mind that Black Americans, Jamaicans, Haitians and all of the Blacks of African descent in the Western Hemisphere are relatives. We just have to get rid of the Tribalism.
@@ihanakaunotar2741 Black people all over the world came from slaves and slave owners. That was a common thing. Either way all of us products of slavery is freaking amazing. We don’t walk next to no one we’re set apart. Yea I said it.
nothing wrong with making heuristics. The truth is many black americans do what she said however she's over generalizing. I wouldn't live near black americans if i was in america, i would find a white surbub and statistically my kids will be less exposed to gargabe (agains statistically) black americans commit more crime per cap[ita
I am a black American and I do Not even drink alcohol. I Never even Thought about taking drugs. Neither has anyone else in my family. Most black people I know do NOT even drink alcohol or smoke cigarettes. The images sent around the world via movies can be powerful. They are yet another reason why minority actors should be thoughtful about the kinds of things they say and do in movies/media.
the African American image portrayed on media is soo Bad. They portray them as drug addicts, into gangs, thieves who rob stores, don’t want to pay child support, tattoos all over their bodies, Loud, disrespectful, condescending, Lazy, depend on food stamps, uneducated, that’s the picture. That picture need to be changed because any other race can be all that not just African American. I know of latinas , Caucasian who are tattooed all over and are drug addicts and I know of descent African Americans who are killing it positively in different social settings.
Salute to you Ms. Clayton for a thoughtful response that I not only agree with but adhere to personally. In my own family I am not the only person of my generation who avoids any contact with drugs, alcohol or tobacco products. Unfortunately each of those evils in the past decimated and devastated my family. We don't really avoid these pitfalls because of our virtue we avoid them because literally we learned through the experiences of older family members. I agree with every word you wrote you sound like a very bright and interesting woman. In fact many of the comments here encourage me because while I don't agree with some, a significant number demonstrate substance, intelligence and thoughtfulness. Thank you.
all they think about is the money, like their handlers tell them. Cause thats the only kind of people they want to hire. People that do as they are told and take the money.
everyone is in their feelings over the womans comment. she is simply saying that , its what she constantly see broadcasted. lets be honest , its all negative black stereotypes, being put on a pedestal and celebrated.
This is why delineation is important. Black Americans brothers and sisters put your people first and stop thinking that all black people are the same because we are not.
Black Americans never put their people first, that's why our communities are wretched and destitute. All AA's know how to do is march and complain. Imagine if they just spend their jordan money on computers and master technology and economics. Lol, just a bunch of friction toes and burnt soles isn't going to get anyone anywhere.
That’s not true but it’s propaganda, Ask someone what’s happening when they enter the USA the video that’s been shown about Black Americans.. Ask them today
So because they dont agree that black americans are victims they are poorly educated? Lol youre brainwashed bro. Africans have the internet too. Theyve seen the BLM movement, critical race theory and the affirmative action and they form their opinions based on that just like the rest of us and guess what, we dont like that. So its not everyone else, its actually YOU.
As a Foundational BLK American, we are not living in a "foreign" country. The USA is our country. We literally built this country. There was no country called USA until we built it. The USA didn't exist until 1776... Foundational BLK Americans have literally been here before 1776 (before the USA existed). Lastly, Foundational BLK Americans have fought in every war for this country. From the Revolutionary War, to the Civil War, to WW1/WW2, etc, etc... Every "Civil Right" that minorities currently have, Foundational BLK Americans fought for them, etc, etc ... WE LITERALLY BUILT THIS COUNTRY. ---- Speaking of culture, Foundational BLK Americans are the culture of America. And, Foundational BLK American culture is the most copied culture on the planet. We Are The Culture. ---- Foundational BLK American (FBA) 💯
Your analysis is inaccurate. My ancestors have been in America since 1620, it was called British Colonial America or the Republic of New Hampshire, the Colony of Massachusetts, Pennsylvania; no slaves, invented most of the engineering, shipping, armaments, built their own homes and barns, grew their own crops . You may have built some the south, but you did NOT build the north. And even though they did not owe anything to slaves, sacrificed their children to free you and ran the Undergound Railroad. Your typically black activist bs just doesn't gel with history, only a part of it where you can be the eternal victim.
And in case you think African Americans are lazy here are some things that you should know about what we were doing while you were in the third world countries, we were inventing the folding chair, gas mask, traffic signal, automatic elevator doors, potato chips and the Super Soaker childrens's water gun toy were all invented by Black innovators, From the three-light traffic signal, refrigerated trucks, automatic elevator doors, color monitors for desktop computers, to the shape of the modern ironing board, the clothes wringer, blood banks, laser treatment for cataracts, home security systems and many objects and services Americans use every day were invented by Black men and women.
@@chrisl4651 Don't be baited by the ignorant or the provocateurs. Your "Black talk" is what is exactly needed to combat the low life images of us that some of us have willingly and joyfully presented to the world via entertainment media.
Also...we are sabotaged in the progress we make...but...Africa is all black people, for the most part....What happened to all those resources....Africa should be walking on streets of GOLD. The continent has 40 percent of the world's gold and up to 90 percent of its chromium and platinum. The largest reserves of cobalt, diamonds, platinum and uranium in the WORLD are in Africa. It holds 65 per cent of the world's arable land and ten percent of the planet's internal renewable fresh water source.
@@crisisbliss2462 As Nigerian.. African Americans are badly portrayed in news media.. especially crimes..do you know parents sending their children especially girl child are warned to stay away from African Americans men for the fear of bad influences... they believe most African Americans are not educated and gravitate towards criminal activities..CNN is most watch here.. they showed black crimes a lot 🤷🏿♂️
Y feel that this bothers you because 2 race are particulary highlighted !! So, i will answer you as a white from America ... neither one nor the other is involved .... and thats the truth. Every humans have there own story ! 🌎🌍🌏
When the camera person zoomed in on that big forehead @11:51 😂😂😂 the camera person was saying that is how we know you are from Rondon😂😂😂 that made my day ..
@rocksiriose yes that is a forehead of noble,Rwandan kings &queens had foreheads and were extremely beautiful,infact in general it is so rare to see someone with forehead who is not beautiful,it is indeed a crown of beauty and royalty ,even most pharaohs of black egypt had foreheads and it said Rwandan kings&queens are their descendants.
I am an American born Black woman. Black people born in America are some of the most successful, brilliant, beautiful, resilient and spiritual people on the planet. Tribalism divided Blacks- and it really needs to end. Read about our horrific history. Keep your head up Black Americans- you are amazing and love yourselves. Africa Unite!
I am an African American woman who lives in America. Proud of it! Best place to live, still! A lot of people would rather live here moreso than Rwanda. Look at the legal and illegal immigrants losing their minds to get here; it's ridiculous! Unfortunately, I agree. With some folks that a lot of African Americans misrepresent our race and make the race as a whole look really bad. However, there are also a lot of African Americans who are great people morally and ethically, who are about the right thing, who love their family, fellow man, communities and country. There are some bad actors in every country, even there in Rwanda. That's why its important not to judge a whole group of people due to a few bad folk; that's not fair. When you think about it, there is never a situation when we can say EVERYONE in a race is all bad, whether they be Muslim, Christian, black, white, etc. We are all individuals with different personalities, beliefs, morals, standards, etc. At the end of the day, personally, I don't particularly care what Rwandans nor any other country or race thinks of me; it doesnt matter. And who are they? Those who have a problem with anyone else is THEIR problem, their opinion. I only care what Jesus Christ thinks of me. He is Who we all should strive to impress. Only what we do for Christ will last! It is He who has a heaven and hell waiting on the other side of this life. Where will YOU spend eternity? See what I mean?😊
I m from Rwanda and This is embarrassing to watch. This video should be sent to the ministry of education. African Americans are the most resilient, smart, strong and successful group (considering
I won’t go so far and say the most. This type of thinking echoes what they were saying. You get that from movies and stories. Do you know of the African or Caribbean history? Do not mix up Jim Crow with slavery. Do you know slavery was worldwide and was not limited to black or America.
@@ljakp7327 I don’t think you understand what you’re talking about. Jim Crow laws were still applicable until 1965, and several years after that were not that different either. Do you know any group of people which has accumulated wealth, if had their own nation, could be the 7th richest country in the world? Only Black Americans. Show respect and stop hating!!
But do Rwandese learn the history about slavery do they know how blacks ended up in the Caribbean ,south America , North America ?I watched part of the video but two ladies made me stop watching it and got pissed
This is sad I’m Jamaican living in America and I have learn the history of African American and I started to understand them, they have been fighting from the moment they was shipped to America and they are still fighting. for a place to belong. Some gave up and gave into the American system and some don’t, the African American are still fighting for a place in this world so please my African people ITS ONE LOVE ONE HEART please accept them learn the history before you start the judge them
I appreciate you taking the time to educate yourself on our history, but you're misunderstanding us. We aren't trying to find a place to belong. We know who we are, our contributions, and where we belong; we just watch to do those things in peace, without injustice.
Thank You Jamaican Brothers and Sister’s for standing up for us in America they don’t No anything this is what the other race want us to fight with each other we no we or from Africa love my Black peoples around the world Big Up one Love 💖🙏🏾
Their Officials told them those screams coming from those Ships were screams of laughter and partying and they have left you here to starve. An African man actually told me something similar to this...That we were over here eating good and left them to starve.
This interview only entertains profound ignorance that the global pan africans are continuously fighting against...just image a young african american child having parents who are conscious with a radar view and support for african issues...what if an african american ignorant of people of ruwanda and said they are simple minded to the point where outside forces were able to have them kill eachother, but of course we wouldn't entertain such foolishness...but at the same time our institutions of education are doing a horrible job at educating both shores of our peoples..it's times we pick more available resources to crush all negative stereotypes....Africans Americans are awakening slowly yet steadily..continental africans are awakening as well.....let's build the needed bridges of education...and a tomorrow for all of us...
As a African American I am proud to be BLACK. I am so sorry that these women are so misinformed and base things of of the internet and someone else's opinion rather than actually coming to America to see for themselves. We should join forces. Americans can teach you Africans some things and you Africans can teach us americans some things. I am looking to bring my family to Africa one day soon.
I visited Rwanda in 2023. I met some wonderful and beautiful people. I also met some Rwandan people who were ignorant to the history of black Americans who were enslaved in the antebellum south
@@Narrow-Pather well guess what everyone thinks just like her even in the state it’s no ones Fault she thinks like that or even people in the state it’s black peoples own fault
This is like how when I first got to the states and Americans thought what they saw on tv was real life. Folks asking me if I played with lions and zebras. It’s a shame folks think like this with all this new information and social media.
@rudestboyem, understand that it’s nothing but the deceiver at play pitting one against the other. Black people need to find a way to stop the madness and start communicating with each other. We are so misinformed about our own rich history and culture. We are beautiful people and we have so much to offer one another. I love my people and I love the Lord and I know that he has a plan for us all. I pray for us each and everyday that we once again find the greatest in us and get back to loving each other. Peace & Love, my brother!!! Be EZ and stay grounded 👍🏿🙏🏿👍🏿🦍✔️🖤
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣am dying one of my friends told me a Black American at his job asked him how he came to America and that pissed me off so much it's 2024 and people still have so much ignorance.
As a black american, We have something called ratchet culture, That is definitely mixed in But it's not all of us, From an individual standpoint we're all different.. Don't be silly , there is undoubtable statistics to say that we have a lot of issues. But ultimately we are american culture. So, as for some of their opinions that maybe negative.I don't think it's a bad thing.I think it's honest opinion. We don't need to be cuddled..
I agree but we’re fighting against a system of systemic racism… From credit score to black jobs the game has change. This system is a game for the wealthy, to “not be like us”
As a Rwandan, I have to say that unfortunately one of the biggest exports America sends to Rwanda is MEDIA. Media in general doesn’t portray black Americans in a good way. All we saw as Rwandan kids was rap music, drugs, sex, movies and sports and that was it. We didn’t see black business men/women, engineers, doctors…etc(it doesn’t mean that they are not there, the media just doesn’t find them “cool” or sometimes “not black enough”). It’s crazy that when I’m in Europe, I’m considered to be very similar to “media black American”. In addition, media does the same bad representation of Africa as a hunger and war stricken continent, where real life illiterate barbarians live. Most Rwandans haven’t met any black Americans and of course vice-versa. What Rwandans should do is try to educate themselves away from the media(which was/still is owned by white Americans) and know the harsh difficulties that generations of our black brothers and sisters in America had to go through. Those Rwandans who don’t like black Americans, it’s 99.9% not from personal experience. It’s actually very good that you made this video(it’s very cringe to watch😣)…we have to face reality in order to change it. And black Americans reading this, please know that those Rwandans in that video don’t represent the whole country. Rwandans in general love people(it doesn’t matter where you’re from) as long as you’re being good and respectful; if you don’t believe it, go and see it for yourselves. Don’t let media make you hate an entire country just like we’ve just seen it.
American media overwhelmingly shows black people in high positions. It's not a secret. Also social media exists. Thats like Americans seeinging Rwandans as nothing but killers bc of history but that's never been the case.
Very interesting. Thank you for patiently asking the people what they think and encouraging them to think it through some more. This helps everyone rethink the consequences of how people act in real life and on media.
I think that many people judge African Americans with unfairness because they can not comprehend, or conceive what a few hundred years of brutality, the devoid of humanization of slavery can totally change a person. And through such change a new kind of native makes itself, different from Africans. And that difference, so that it eventually grows into its own maturity, is a fine work in progress Nothing is lacking in these new natives, as some people wrongly, ignorantly perceive.
@@ucheanamonye4799 yes it is. but at this present. The situation is very much a work in progress, that I am certain will progress to full and rightful conclusion. All of Mankind has had to go through a process of becoming. A process of freeing oneself from experiences that have been delayed or interfered from coming into one's own. This period is very painful and disconcerting. But, for this reason, the need to eventually, finally come into one's own is the prize of any struggle made. Mankind is strong, determined, and willful. It knows what it wants. It senses what it is. And in doing so, it will fight to arrive at coming on/of/to its own. There is much hope and promise within this excruciating but wonderful process, but it calls for patience. Thank you.
but Africans went through this too. There is no point in living victimizing yourself, instead, look for what is good and correct what is bad. immorality in the North American population is great, not to mention that the country itself is violent and full of crime. more developed than South and Central America, however in terms of violence there is not much difference.
But guys... do you blame them??? The same way the news has always portrayed the whole of Africa as a war struck "country" with jungle killings, is the same way the media has portrayed mostly young black american men as the ones always involved in drug crimes, the ones always in gang shootings, the ones who always rob stores, the ones who always are in prison and the women as very loud and obnoxious. The list is endless! Its time for social media to correct both impressions.
No ! It's time for some Africans, as well as Black Americans, to stop being so reliant, on the content that social media provides and instead, if you are wholeheartedly interested and are not lazy, to do your own analytical cross-referencing . Which would involve a plethora of different sources of information. The unintelligent responses, that were given by the obviously less informed, reminded me of what White Supremacy has been harkening about people of color as a collective. Regardless, as to what continent you reside or claim as home. Could it be, that the attitudes are only a reflection of the previous stranglehold of colonialism ? I have visited Ethiopia, on two occasions, met a Rwandan gentleman named Awadi (African Prince of Rwanda is what I would scream to him from across the street and all the white people would stop and look at him admirably), dated an Eritrean, Zimbabwean, good friends to a Togolese couple (the wife wants to give me her younger sister, because she likes me herself) and the encounters go on and on. I am approaching retirement and if that becomes a reality, I will spend more time, in many countries, on the continent of Africa. Oh ! Awadi said to me, "If ever I go to Rwanda, let him know.. My intent, whenever I go, is not to stay in a hotel. But instead, to be with the people as much as possible. Be well.
But our people are furthering the filth ourselves for profit. In my real life I don't see half the things going on that black social media complain about.
Understood however if we stop doing it there would be nothing to put on the media. We’re clearly doing it!!! And those portrayed in Africa are doing it too. If WE as blacks/ Africans stop doing these things there will be nothing to post on the media but we keep doing it. It may not be all of us but it is certainly looking like that because some of us just won’t stop

Well most Africans have never met any black Americans, personally I meet many white Americans in Africa but never an African Americans, we only see them on TV, mainly in music and Hollywood movies, thats brings a lot of disinformation about them
Ages ago most of black Americans never travelled abroad especially to Africa, I don’t know if they were brainwashed not travel to Africa in order to don’t connect to their roots and realise that they don’t deserve to be slaves. They were put in position of not being able to afford a “travelling budget” so they don’t go back home, but to live and remain in America and Europe as slaves, serving their masters with little rewards! Only nowadays they have awakened after realising that they were deceived and kept hidden from knowing their beautiful rich and holy culture they have from their ancestors! Now their masters have become so successful in building the gap between black Africans and black Americans / Europeans etc. Pretty sad really 😢

I am not African American and I am not Rwandan but I am so sad to hear and see African Americans being insulted so badly in this video. As a Black lady of African and Middle Eastern ethnicity I think Black people should not be insulting or criticising each other we have a bad reputation already we don't need to make things worse all Blacks are African we need to unite and support each other to culturally transform and grow. Manashantii The Christian
Insulting is telling it how it is? Their opinion and perspectives? These Rwandan women are beautiful souls, and they are just trying to defend themselves from people they see as boasters, drug dealers and fake people, which are mostly the african american people they see on social media. Is there something wrong with that? Is what they see.
Be strong Sister, I am from Rwanda lives in New York and I feel so sad to hear this interview as well, I have no ideas the motivation behind the guy who interviewed my ignorant sisters without educating them first about Your history. They are answering based to the movies can you imagine? Which movies they watched. We don't know. So, I don't blame them, I blame the journalist who interviewed them without educating them the history and challenge of Blac Americans.
We love you guys in Southern Africa. Yes this true. We had versions of jim crowe/aparthied all over southern African nations, so we can relate. Other Africans in the East West Central and even North of the continent are also waking up. But i feel it's up to Aftican Americans/Caribbeans/diaspora continental Africans who are well aware, to galvanise the tribes and unite us all once and for all. So we can't easily be moved by disagreements any more. We have no more time.
I’m not a fan when you do these interviews. Because how many Americans have they met to really have a an opinion about it? Other than what they see in the media and in movies. Have they ever had a conversation with an American?
I'm Rwandan and let me tell you that these girls never meet any African American and all they are saying it's just what we see in the movies so don't lost your time for them! Look at them it's just the younger girls may be 20 years old they know nothing about African Americans 😢😢
It's astonishing how one person can harbor hatred towards another group, especially black individuals, irrespective of their location. As a black immigrant who has spent more than two-thirds of my life in US, I hold deep admiration and gratitude for African Americans; without their struggles, my own existence would be different. I think these women express their views not out of disdain for African Americans, but rather from a place of privilege that comes with awareness...
They could definitely learn something about Black Americans and our experiences. Not from movies or television shows. And most Americans can learn from Rwandans as well.
To whoever is watching this, let me make this clear as a Congolese who is also a proud pan-african: there is always going to be ignorance on either side because no matter how we don't want to admit it, we really don't understand each other. - The girl speaks truth because sexual acts does get unnecessarily normalized in the U.S. (Black bros and sisters are there, so you gotta take that L-I'm sorry) - Notice that most of africans and black Americans share deep admiration. Family spirit, right? - Nuances will always be there, because our exposures are different but brotherhood comes first. - 'They are f'd up there, and they don't belong there. they belong here,' a hard truth. - African is so big. This video was shot in Rwanda. Keep that in mind b4 you generalize. Our cultures are different, but what surprised me is how our souls are connected. I just feel it whenever I meet a brother or sister. It is amazing. May God keep showing us a way home.
We have been so divided against each other thru moves. I hope our communication on social media can help improve that. Remember the Hutsi and Tutsi 's... we must come together
But they trying to get in the USA 🇺🇸. THEY ALL come from a 3rd world country, and talks shyt about us??? IM glad to be a BLACK AMERICAN. WHILE she is waiting for a bowl of rice or porage? I'm live in a house with running water and a shower. And eating a steak. America is well developed, Rwanda and other parts of Africa lost their power to English and Asian foreigner. AFEICANS DONT EVEN RUN AFRICA. She can say whatever she wants, she's poor, broke, waiting for us to give her something. She is really low budget
"The video's staggering ignorance highlights the imperative to scrutinize televised content critically. It's crucial for individuals to educate themselves thoroughly before expressing opinions. The perpetuation of false narratives, akin to those disseminated by National Geographic about Africa, underscores the necessity for unity among African Americans and Africans. Let's prioritize education and understanding; reading is a fundamental tool for enlightenment and unity. ✌️❤"
Well-said. I may also say western cultural centers in Africa, promote ignorance to Africans. I once went to the American cultural center in Africa, in Burundi to see movie. Guess which movie they showed us? It was a movie showing Black gangs in the USA shooting each other. I instinctively felt this was not right, and was part of disinformation promoting bad image of Black Americans in Burundi and at that time, I never even traveled out of Burundi.
I recently traveled through east africa And I noticed that east africans are quite sensible. They are raised being afraid of doing drugs and smoking marijuana. It's like a lot of them.Don't even know about it. They have a sense of innocence compared to the west. The women are very traditional people know their place in their society.And that's something that I really liked aboutraveling through east africa and speaking to a lot of them they seem very friendly.
True. In East Africa, people are more quiet, more sense of innocence, not aggressive, more peaceful. West African people are loud, aggressive, more opinionated, and more easy to get upset and ready to fight back
@SGOA32178 I believe African Americans women are from West Africa. Looking at Nigerian women and Jamaican women and African Americans women, I don't see much difference. They are truly sisters. Nit just about being loud, but about many other behaviors. 😅🤣
Mr. They are WAY stronger than even you. Please go and you will see the consummate disparity. First of all, they articulate English much better than, speak a minimum of 3 languages, cook for themselves, hustle for rent, deal with typhoid, malaria, yellow fever, substandard food, walk a minimum of 5 miles/day… Yea, come with me and go try to be strong there and you’ll see. Ignorant.
I understand these women because they have a different culture from the American Blacks. It is the same as saying all South American countries are all the same people. No, they are not just because they share the same skin color. Also, Rwandan speak very softly and not angry and show intentions of beating up the person. Very well mannered.
I’m curious about what the answer would be if you asked if they like or would date/marry European Americans 🤔 sounds like a good follow up video to me 🤷🏾♂️
I actually made that video, but there are currently no plans to publish. Anyways, the ones who disliked black Americans also disliked whites. And the ones who liked black Americans also liked whites.
U knows nothing about Africa most countries in Africa is much better and stress free them living in America. Honestly speaking I have experienced both and like Africa and Asia that’s it !
@@ATSdream Im a Black American and I actually live in Africa retired. The arrogant backwardness and ignorance that I encounter each day is no longer innocent and comical, it's a sad embarrassment. Perhaps because you are accustomed to it you think its comparable or even relatable to stress or safety🤷🏾.
Willie you should try to let them respond in kinyarwanda and put subtitles. English doesn’t come easy for most, you will get better truer opinion when expressing their opinions freely.
This is what I was thinking as i watched. Willie you must understand that Rwanda was a Francophone country until recently. So most of them cannot express themselves well in English.
We love them it’s like Brother who raised by different parents we share a lot of struggles, colonisation slavery, experiencing racism we experiencing near colonialism
I'm a Black woman & I went to Rwanda 2 yrs ago for my 60th birthday and I had nothing but love. The locals were kind; friendly & patient. They had tv adverts targeting Black Americans as tourists & investors becuz they know we travel & spend money.
I appreciate the interview. This topic wasn't easy. It highlights our negative perception of our fellow Black Americans. However, I love how our sisters were honest and expressed all their thoughts and tried their best to overcome the language barrier we actually suffer from. I was trying to answer to the questions at the same time in my mind, but I wish our english proficiency would grow though we have made a significant progress. It's unfortunate that we didn't have many appreciations, negative viewpoints seemed to dominate.
Exactly. And why only ladies? this are very IGNORANT girls. And I've met black Americans with similar or worse attitudes... I've even heard Lionel Richie make implications about is. Idolized the commodores as a kid and growing up. It was traumatizing to hear the crap he was talking. Prince too. Too many to mention
@aaronjones1963 So, based on your comment, people in America are homeless and are all on welfare. Or people in America live in teepee and live off the grid? Does every continent have a minority of people that live a certain way. "Yes." idk where you are from, but im sure the educational system can't be that bad.
jealousy 😭. No one is jealous of akatas. I promise. You guys just can’t stand criticism and think everyone who dislikes you is because of jEAlouSy when that’s not the case at all.
It’s not jealousy black Americans and Africans have a negative perception of each other based on what we both were thought through history and media by the white man there are a lot of black Americans. They also have bad shit to say about Africans there are a lot of Africans that have a lot of bad shit to say about black Americans. It’s both ways so let’s not act like act like one-sided
She’s is a real African woman and she’s not fake, What she’s saying is don’t stuck in past standup yourself and believing you’re the best person and move forward, ETC
@@WillieFungo Wouldn't be better for you not to make such puerile videos of comparisons! I see you have that crab in the barrel mentality/jealousy.

@@WillieFungo Earlier in a separate post, I inquired whether you had questioned individuals of white Americans, and you mentioned that you had off camera, with their response being no. However, I'd like to address a significant point... Black Americans are "The Chosen People of God" according to Genesis 15:13.. and therefore, those of you who exhibit antipathy - hating without acknowledging what happened to us, being forced into slavery for hundreds of years, our struggles, history, and all the thing that happened to us, demonstrate a profound ignorance. Furthermore, I found it unjust that you interrupted the young lady's audio discourse at the timestamp of 14:34 And if you're about fair journalism, Why did you not afford her the opportunity to express her perspective, especially considering the positive discourse surrounding African Americans and the distinctions between our communities and theirs?
It is INSANE how much in common WE as traditional people from southeast Europe have in common with the Rwandese people. Actually, we are almost the same in thinking. Skin colour is negligible it is only America and the other colonial countries that spread racism. Rwandans seems amazingly humble and what a great culture
The people of Rwanda are very beautiful I did not know this from before, plus what surprised me most as a South African, is that I never realised that Rwanda looked a lot more like a 1st world country than the other countries. A lot like South Africa I would say.
Neither are a monolith, I’m strictly from Louisiana. My culture and yours have nothing in common except skin color. I’m not a Semite or whatever nonsense you’re talking about
This victim way of thinking is what has stopped us from moving forward. You want to feel like everyone is against us so bad when we kill each other and cause harm to each other the most. Don’t act like fellow BA don’t say racist hit about Africans. You are NOT the victim.
It’s interesting hearing the opinions of people swimming in small ponds…especially those swimming without humility in the shallowest ends of those ponds.
She doesn’t know our history in dealing with these folks. When slavery ended, Jim Crow and systemic barriers were being implemented towards us while white folks were having their life subsidized. Any progress that we made in the form of wealth was knocked back. Africans really need to see how many racial massacres that melanated Americans endured. See the terrorist groups that we had to face. State and Federal governments were apathetic towards us just trying to live until we started knocking heads back. How would most Africans respond to everything that we have faced?
They get their news from the media, and that’s Sad how people judge people that they don’t know so Sad and my Husband is from Ethiopia and I am a Black American woman.❤😮😊
A note about the women who has never met an African American - this is why it's so important that Black Americans guard how we're represented in the media. Keep in mind, Black American women have Sexxy Red, Meg the Stallion, Ice Spice etc. representing them around the world. So yeah, you may encounter people who may have never met a Black American but will assume we're sex workers and hyper sexual based on what they see in the media and that is our fault for accepting and promoting those images of us.
I don't blame her for the lies she has been told. True enough the vast majority of black Americans deal with or celebrate dysfunction, hatred, and distruction of our own race. So if she said some or most that would've been acceptable. Leave this woman alone and place blame where it lies...The media who don't have our (black people) interest at heart.
If your parents and grandparents were kidnapped from what is called Nigeria, taking to Brazil but you were not captured and remained in Nigerian, where are your roots?
@MrHello-nx4xs Unfortunately not everyone grasps that concept. I had a back and forth recently with some Black Americans who although knowledged that their great, great, great grandparents were slaves, do not believe that their ancestry started in Africa!

It’s not by coincidence but by design so we can all stay at the bottom around the world. We have to wake up.
Those are Rwandanese people, they speak Rwandan language also Swahili, as far as I'm concerned French and English were also used there by colonizers, but those are not their native tounges, therefore you can not blame them for not being fluent in it. Seriously. Can you express console sentences in Swahili? 😅
I'm sorry I have to admit I was a little in my feelings but I would absolutely love to be able to go to place like Rwanda I can't let people like this dissuade me out of an experience like traveling I can't be closed minded because other people are I would love to be able to go to this beautiful place and meet some great people Insha Allaah maybe one day.
GPS was a logical progression of calculating the position of Sputnik. In 1957, William Guier and George Weiffenbach, at Johns Hopkins University's Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) decided to monitor its radio transmissions. They then realized that, because of the Doppler effect, they could pinpoint where the satellite was along its orbit. Given that the real position of the satellite is known, reversing the calculation gives your own position.
If you lived in Africa .. you would think very differently.. 😂😂, you'll quickly learn that you are not African. Just start thinking and behaving like the average African man on the continent and you find a significant decline in your income.
A terrible amount of ignorance is displayed in this video. However, it is fitting. I've met some of them. This is fitting for the small minded citizens of that country. This does not represent all Rwandans; but this type of feedback is not surprising. They are usually quite shocked after meeting American Africans; regarding how much they (Rwandans) thought they knew. The cognitive dissonance is visually observable.
Cognitive dissonance here? hahahhah Do you even know what that means? No, this is called having an opinion, and social media is (for them), I would say, plenty enough to figure out the attitudes of black americans. Deal with it, they don't like your type.

Not all of us as Africans think bad about African Americans. Most of us love you and think that you are great people. Don't let a few Africans make you hate all African people. I've seen a lot of African Americans and Caribbeans saying they hate us Africans but that doesn't make me hate you all. We are all one people
The strangest thing about life is that when you've never been anywhere to see for yourself, you have a tendency to think that what you hear about others is true.
As a Black American who just left Rwanda (Kigali and Kibagabaga) last month, I can say with certainty every Rwandan I met loved us. The ladies loved us too. We visited a few clubs, ate at some good restaurants we had a good time. Most of them can’t speak English well so this was a hurdle but don’t take these two women serious as ignorance is everywhere on this planet. I’ve been all over Africa from Kenya to Nigeria and can say the overwhelming MAJORITY of the ppl I’ve met LOVE us black Americans. Have never had an issue. Most are just ignorant to our history and culture like we are to theirs. B1 Family 💪 💯
Exactly. We need to share positive stories about each other let the positive grow not the negative.
I love your comment my Dear, You just gave me hope, As a Rwandese who lives in New York City, I was very surprised to hear my Rwanda sister 's intro then I wonder if she lives in USA maybe some brother or sister here missed behavior to her maybe that can be the reason why she said that, but I noticed that she is in RWANDA, definitely she doesn't know much about the history and everyday challenge of Black American. Maybe the lady is referring to the languages people use because they use to much F languages which in Kinyarwanda and Rwandan culture, we consider insults or miss behaviors, or somebody who are not polite.
ua-cam.com/users/shortsd3Z5lM6zhL0?si=cnlJdEneJLCl6KKt. This is what give black Americans a very bad reputation.

Certainly, many African Americans are more knowledgeable about Africa than they are about our own history and culture.
As a Jamaican 🇯🇲 living in America 🇺🇸 I can say that young lady is misinformed she need to travel. Black Americans are one of the strongest most resilient people you will ever meet very brilliant and are some of the most beautiful black people on planet earth 🌍 until you’ve walked in their shoes you can’t really say anything. I love my Black American brothers and sisters. Notice I didn’t say African American. I refer to them as Black Americans or simply Americans even tho our roots are from African descendants. Aka Slaves. We’re black and proud. ✊🏽
Agree with you...and they are very talented as well
I am FBA and there is no doubt in my mind that Black Americans, Jamaicans, Haitians and all of the Blacks of African descent in the Western Hemisphere are relatives. We just have to get rid of the Tribalism.
Well some of them are also descendants of slave owners.

I am a black American and I do Not even drink alcohol. I Never even Thought about taking drugs. Neither has anyone else in my family. Most black people I know do NOT even drink alcohol or smoke cigarettes. The images sent around the world via movies can be powerful. They are yet another reason why minority actors should be thoughtful about the kinds of things they say and do in movies/media.
the African American image portrayed on media is soo Bad. They portray them as drug addicts, into gangs, thieves who rob stores, don’t want to pay child support, tattoos all over their bodies, Loud, disrespectful, condescending, Lazy, depend on food stamps, uneducated, that’s the picture. That picture need to be changed because any other race can be all that not just African American. I know of latinas , Caucasian who are tattooed all over and are drug addicts and I know of descent African Americans who are killing it positively in different social settings.
It’s the rap music they see sexy red etc
Salute to you Ms. Clayton for a thoughtful response that I not only agree with but adhere to personally. In my own family I am not the only person of my generation who avoids any contact with drugs, alcohol or tobacco products. Unfortunately each of those evils in the past decimated and devastated my family. We don't really avoid these pitfalls because of our virtue we avoid them because literally we learned through the experiences of older family members. I agree with every word you wrote you sound like a very bright and interesting woman. In fact many of the comments here encourage me because while I don't agree with some, a significant number demonstrate substance, intelligence and thoughtfulness. Thank you.
all they think about is the money, like their handlers tell them. Cause thats the only kind of people they want to hire. People that do as they are told and take the money.
everyone is in their feelings over the womans comment. she is simply saying that , its what she constantly see broadcasted. lets be honest , its all negative black stereotypes, being put on a pedestal and celebrated.
This is why delineation is important. Black Americans brothers and sisters put your people first and stop thinking that all black people are the same because we are not.
Black Americans never put their people first, that's why our communities are wretched and destitute. All AA's know how to do is march and complain. Imagine if they just spend their jordan money on computers and master technology and economics. Lol, just a bunch of friction toes and burnt soles isn't going to get anyone anywhere.

So because they dont agree that black americans are victims they are poorly educated? Lol youre brainwashed bro.

As a Foundational BLK American, we are not living in a "foreign" country. The USA is our country. We literally built this country. There was no country called USA until we built it. The USA didn't exist until 1776... Foundational BLK Americans have literally been here before 1776 (before the USA existed). Lastly, Foundational BLK Americans have fought in every war for this country. From the Revolutionary War, to the Civil War, to WW1/WW2, etc, etc... Every "Civil Right" that minorities currently have, Foundational BLK Americans fought for them, etc, etc ... WE LITERALLY BUILT THIS COUNTRY.

Your analysis is inaccurate. My ancestors have been in America since 1620, it was called British Colonial America or the Republic of New Hampshire, the Colony of Massachusetts, Pennsylvania; no slaves, invented most of the engineering, shipping, armaments, built their own homes and barns, grew their own crops . You may have built some the south, but you did NOT build the north. And even though they did not owe anything to slaves, sacrificed their children to free you and ran the Undergound Railroad. Your typically black activist bs just doesn't gel with history, only a part of it where you can be the eternal victim.
And in case you think African Americans are lazy here are some things that you should know about what we were doing while you were in the third world countries, we were inventing the folding chair, gas mask, traffic signal, automatic elevator doors, potato chips and the Super Soaker childrens's water gun toy were all invented by Black innovators,
From the three-light traffic signal, refrigerated trucks, automatic elevator doors, color monitors for desktop computers, to the shape of the modern ironing board, the clothes wringer, blood banks, laser treatment for cataracts, home security systems and many objects and services Americans use every day were invented by Black men and women.

I am an African American woman who lives in America. Proud of it! Best place to live, still! A lot of people would rather live here moreso than Rwanda. Look at the legal and illegal immigrants losing their minds to get here; it's ridiculous! Unfortunately, I agree. With some folks that a lot of African Americans misrepresent our race and make the race as a whole look really bad. However, there are also a lot of African Americans who are great people morally and ethically, who are about the right thing, who love their family, fellow man, communities and country. There are some bad actors in every country, even there in Rwanda. That's why its important not to judge a whole group of people due to a few bad folk; that's not fair. When you think about it, there is never a situation when we can say EVERYONE in a race is all bad, whether they be Muslim, Christian, black, white, etc. We are all individuals with different personalities, beliefs, morals, standards, etc. At the end of the day, personally, I don't particularly care what Rwandans nor any other country or race thinks of me; it doesnt matter. And who are they? Those who have a problem with anyone else is THEIR problem, their opinion. I only care what Jesus Christ thinks of me. He is Who we all should strive to impress. Only what we do for Christ will last! It is He who has a heaven and hell waiting on the other side of this life. Where will YOU spend eternity? See what I mean?😊

From credit score to black jobs the game has change. This system is a game for the wealthy, to “not be like us”
As a Rwandan, I have to say that unfortunately one of the biggest exports America sends to Rwanda is MEDIA. Media in general doesn’t portray black Americans in a good way. All we saw as Rwandan kids was rap music, drugs, sex, movies and sports and that was it. We didn’t see black business men/women, engineers, doctors…etc(it doesn’t mean that they are not there, the media just doesn’t find them “cool” or sometimes “not black enough”). It’s crazy that when I’m in Europe, I’m considered to be very similar to “media black American”. In addition, media does the same bad representation of Africa as a hunger and war stricken continent, where real life illiterate barbarians live.
Most Rwandans haven’t met any black Americans and of course vice-versa. What Rwandans should do is try to educate themselves away from the media(which was/still is owned by white Americans) and know the harsh difficulties that generations of our black brothers and sisters in America had to go through. Those Rwandans who don’t like black Americans, it’s 99.9% not from personal experience. It’s actually very good that you made this video(it’s very cringe to watch😣)…we have to face reality in order to change it.
And black Americans reading this, please know that those Rwandans in that video don’t represent the whole country. Rwandans in general love people(it doesn’t matter where you’re from) as long as you’re being good and respectful; if you don’t believe it, go and see it for yourselves. Don’t let media make you hate an entire country just like we’ve just seen it.

Very interesting. Thank you for patiently asking the people what they think and encouraging them to think it through some more. This helps everyone rethink the consequences of how people act in real life and on media.
So, you are threatening them? They don't need to "think it through some more", they already told you the truth. You need to learn to deal with it.
I think that many people judge African Americans with unfairness because they can not comprehend, or conceive what a few hundred years of brutality, the devoid of humanization of slavery can totally change a person. And through such change a new kind of native makes itself, different from Africans. And that difference, so that it eventually grows into its own maturity, is a fine work in progress Nothing is lacking in these new natives, as some people wrongly, ignorantly perceive.
Very sad

@@ucheanamonye4799 yes it is. but at this present. The situation is very much a work in progress, that I am certain will progress to full and rightful conclusion. All of Mankind has had to go through a process of becoming.

But guys... do you blame them??? The same way the news has always portrayed the whole of Africa as a war struck "country" with jungle killings, is the same way the media has portrayed mostly young black american men as the ones always involved in drug crimes, the ones always in gang shootings, the ones who always rob stores, the ones who always are in prison and the women as very loud and obnoxious. The list is endless! Its time for social media to correct both impressions.
It goes to Show how POWERFUL Media is..Smh
No ! It's time for some Africans, as well as Black Americans, to stop being so reliant, on the content that social media provides and instead, if you are wholeheartedly interested and are not lazy, to do your own analytical cross-referencing . Which would involve a plethora of different sources of information. The unintelligent responses, that were given by the obviously less informed, reminded me of what White Supremacy has been harkening about people of color as a collective. Regardless, as to what continent you reside or claim as home. Could it be, that the attitudes are only a reflection of the previous stranglehold of colonialism ? I have visited Ethiopia, on two occasions, met a Rwandan gentleman named Awadi (African Prince of Rwanda is what I would scream to him from across the street and all the white people would stop and look at him admirably), dated an Eritrean, Zimbabwean, good friends to a Togolese couple (the wife wants to give me her younger sister, because she likes me herself) and the encounters go on and on. I am approaching retirement and if that becomes a reality, I will spend more time, in many countries, on the continent of Africa. Oh ! Awadi said to me, "If ever I go to Rwanda, let him know.. My intent, whenever I go, is not to stay in a hotel. But instead, to be with the people as much as possible. Be well.
But our people are furthering the filth ourselves for profit. In my real life I don't see half the things going on that black social media complain about.
As a Nigerian you're very correct FACT
Understood however if we stop doing it there would be nothing to put on the media. We’re clearly doing it!!! And those portrayed in Africa are doing it too. If WE as blacks/ Africans stop doing these things there will be nothing to post on the media but we keep doing it. It may not be all of us but it is certainly looking like that because some of us just won’t stop
Very insightful. Further proof that media representation and the image we project on social media matters. I appreciate their honesty.

Well most Africans have never met any black Americans, personally I meet many white Americans in Africa but never an African Americans, we only see them on TV, mainly in music and Hollywood movies, thats brings a lot of disinformation about them
Ages ago most of black Americans never travelled abroad especially to Africa, I don’t know if they were brainwashed not travel to Africa in order to don’t connect to their roots and realise that they don’t deserve to be slaves. They were put in position of not being able to afford a “travelling budget” so they don’t go back home, but to live and remain in America and Europe as slaves, serving their masters with little rewards! Only nowadays they have awakened after realising that they were deceived and kept hidden from knowing their beautiful rich and holy culture they have from their ancestors! Now their masters have become so successful in building the gap between black Africans and black Americans / Europeans etc. Pretty sad really 😢

I am not African American and I am not Rwandan but I am so sad to hear and see African Americans being insulted so badly in this video. As a Black lady of African and Middle Eastern ethnicity I think Black people should not be insulting or criticising each other we have a bad reputation already we don't need to make things worse all Blacks are African we need to unite and support each other to culturally transform and grow.

Insulting is telling it how it is? Their opinion and perspectives? These Rwandan women are beautiful souls, and they are just trying to defend themselves from people they see as boasters, drug dealers and fake people, which are mostly the african american people they see on social media.

Be strong Sister, I am from Rwanda lives in New York and I feel so sad to hear this interview as well, I have no ideas the motivation behind the guy who interviewed my ignorant sisters without educating them first about Your history. They are answering based to the movies can you imagine? Which movies they watched. We don't know. So, I don't blame them, I blame the journalist who interviewed them without educating them the history and challenge of Blac Americans.
We love you guys in Southern Africa. Yes this true. We had versions of jim crowe/aparthied all over southern African nations, so we can relate. Other Africans in the East West Central and even North of the continent are also waking up. But i feel it's up to Aftican Americans/Caribbeans/diaspora continental Africans who are well aware, to galvanise the tribes and unite us all once and for all. So we can't easily be moved by disagreements any more. We have no more time.
I’m not a fan when you do these interviews. Because how many Americans have they met to really have a an opinion about it? Other than what they see in the media and in movies. Have they ever had a conversation with an American?

I'm Rwandan and let me tell you that these girls never meet any African American and all they are saying it's just what we see in the movies so don't lost your time for them! Look at them it's just the younger girls may be 20 years old they know nothing about African Americans 😢😢
Exactly. That is the problem interviewing these women. It's obvious none of them even know any Black people from the US.
It's astonishing how one person can harbor hatred towards another group, especially black individuals, irrespective of their location. As a black immigrant who has spent more than two-thirds of my life in US, I hold deep admiration and gratitude for African Americans; without their struggles, my own existence would be different. I think these women express their views not out of disdain for African Americans, but rather from a place of privilege that comes with awareness...
They could definitely learn something about Black Americans and our experiences. Not from movies or television shows.
And most Americans can learn from Rwandans as well.
Yes, especially since the Rwandans went through a massive genocide in 1993
To whoever is watching this, let me make this clear as a Congolese who is also a proud pan-african: there is always going to be ignorance on either side because no matter how we don't want to admit it, we really don't understand each other.
- The girl speaks truth because sexual acts does get unnecessarily normalized in the U.S. (Black bros and sisters are there, so you gotta take that L-I'm sorry)
- Notice that most of africans and black Americans share deep admiration. Family spirit, right?
- Nuances will always be there, because our exposures are different but brotherhood comes first.
- 'They are f'd up there, and they don't belong there. they belong here,' a hard truth.
- African is so big. This video was shot in Rwanda. Keep that in mind b4 you generalize.
Our cultures are different, but what surprised me is how our souls are connected. I just feel it whenever I meet a brother or sister. It is amazing. May God keep showing us a way home.
We have been so divided against each other thru moves. I hope our communication on social media can help improve that. Remember the Hutsi and Tutsi 's... we must come together

"The video's staggering ignorance highlights the imperative to scrutinize televised content critically. It's crucial for individuals to educate themselves thoroughly before expressing opinions. The perpetuation of false narratives, akin to those disseminated by National Geographic about Africa, underscores the necessity for unity among African Americans and Africans. Let's prioritize education and understanding; reading is a fundamental tool for enlightenment and unity. ✌️❤"
Well-said. I may also say western cultural centers in Africa, promote ignorance to Africans.
I once went to the American cultural center in Africa, in Burundi to see movie. Guess which movie they showed us?
It was a movie showing Black gangs in the USA shooting each other. I instinctively felt this was not right, and was part of disinformation promoting bad image of Black Americans in Burundi and at that time, I never even traveled out of Burundi.
Ditto.

I recently traveled through east africa And I noticed that east africans are quite sensible. They are raised being afraid of doing drugs and smoking marijuana. It's like a lot of them.Don't even know about it. They have a sense of innocence compared to the west. The women are very traditional people know their place in their society.And that's something that I really liked aboutraveling through east africa and speaking to a lot of them they seem very friendly.
True. In East Africa, people are more quiet, more sense of innocence, not aggressive, more peaceful. West African people are loud, aggressive, more opinionated, and more easy to get upset and ready to fight back
Thank you, great observation.

Yea, come with me and go try to be strong there and you’ll see. Ignorant.
I understand these women because they have a different culture from the American Blacks. It is the same as saying all South American countries are all the same people. No, they are not just because they share the same skin color. Also, Rwandan speak very softly and not angry and show intentions of beating up the person. Very well mannered.
I’m curious about what the answer would be if you asked if they like or would date/marry European Americans 🤔 sounds like a good follow up video to me 🤷🏾♂️
I actually made that video, but there are currently no plans to publish. Anyways, the ones who disliked black Americans also disliked whites. And the ones who liked black Americans also liked whites.

Willie you should try to let them respond in kinyarwanda and put subtitles. English doesn’t come easy for most, you will get better truer opinion when expressing their opinions freely.
This is what I was thinking as i watched. Willie you must understand that Rwanda was a Francophone country until recently. So most of them cannot express themselves well in English.

I'm a Black woman & I went to Rwanda 2 yrs ago for my 60th birthday and I had nothing but love. The locals were kind; friendly & patient. They had tv adverts targeting Black Americans as tourists & investors becuz they know we travel & spend money.
I think.
I can't wait to see if you would do something on europeans
I appreciate the interview. This topic wasn't easy. It highlights our negative perception of our fellow Black Americans. However, I love how our sisters were honest and expressed all their thoughts and tried their best to overcome the language barrier we actually suffer from. I was trying to answer to the questions at the same time in my mind, but I wish our english proficiency would grow though we have made a significant progress.
It's unfortunate that we didn't have many appreciations, negative viewpoints seemed to dominate.

However, I'd like to address a significant point... Black Americans are "The Chosen People of God" according to Genesis 15:13.. and therefore, those of you who exhibit antipathy - hating without acknowledging what happened to us, being forced into slavery for hundreds of years, our struggles, history, and all the thing that happened to us, demonstrate a profound ignorance. Furthermore, I found it unjust that you interrupted the young lady's audio discourse at the timestamp of 14:34 And if you're about fair journalism, Why did you not afford her the opportunity to express her perspective, especially considering the positive discourse surrounding African Americans and the distinctions between our communities and theirs?

She doesn’t know our history in dealing with these folks. When slavery ended, Jim Crow and systemic barriers were being implemented towards us while white folks were having their life subsidized. Any progress that we made in the form of wealth was knocked back. Africans really need to see how many racial massacres that melanated Americans endured. See the terrorist groups that we had to face. State and Federal governments were apathetic towards us just trying to live until we started knocking heads back. How would most Africans respond to everything that we have faced?

A note about the women who has never met an African American - this is why it's so important that Black Americans guard how we're represented in the media. Keep in mind, Black American women have Sexxy Red, Meg the Stallion, Ice Spice etc. representing them around the world. So yeah, you may encounter people who may have never met a Black American but will assume we're sex workers and hyper sexual based on what they see in the media and that is our fault for accepting and promoting those images of us.
I don't blame her for the lies she has been told. True enough the vast majority of black Americans deal with or celebrate dysfunction, hatred, and distruction of our own race. So if she said some or most that would've been acceptable. Leave this woman alone and place blame where it lies...The media who don't have our (black people) interest at heart.

GPS was a logical progression of calculating the position of Sputnik.
In 1957, William Guier and George Weiffenbach, at Johns Hopkins University's Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) decided to monitor its radio transmissions. They then realized that, because of the Doppler effect, they could pinpoint where the satellite was along its orbit.
Given that the real position of the satellite is known, reversing the calculation gives your own position.
That is true and what she saying we do try to be more white orientated than being African orientated

A terrible amount of ignorance is displayed in this video. However, it is fitting. I've met some of them. This is fitting for the small minded citizens of that country. This does not represent all Rwandans; but this type of feedback is not surprising. They are usually quite shocked after meeting American Africans; regarding how much they (Rwandans) thought they knew. The cognitive dissonance is visually observable.
We have so much to learn about them
Cognitive dissonance here? hahahhah Do you even know what that means? No, this is called having an opinion, and social media is (for them), I would say, plenty enough to figure out the attitudes of black americans. Deal with it, they don't like your type.
