Very good decision it will bring forth good fruits for tomorrow and years to come, thank you Jesus Christ. Lord you are putting your SEPTA out thank you Father, we always ask when will it end but there's is light.
This is very nice and welcoming, but there's the fact of what happened in Sierra Leonne, Hotel Rwanda, and the troubles that have happened. Africa is a splendid, wonderful continent, but it does have a concerning history. Of course, not all of Africa has a bloody past, but are these leaders really after creating a peaceful safer better place for people? If so, good.
This provides a safe place when needed. Americans/Africans you now have a choice, it should be celebrated and not scoffed at. Africa is going to be great Again!!!
Hope you didnt go over there! Africans are not us, and they do not like us! Don't be a fool1 They're doing all this to curry favor with the US Government~! I'm not an African, I'm a black Foundational american!
People please don't believe the hype of this story. I can't speak for other African countries, but Ghana I can . The process to obtain citizenship is slow cumbersome and filled with so much red tape It will cause your head to hurt! The last time Ghana gave out the citizenship to 126 people many of those people had been in Ghana for 10 years waiting. Many that are waiting for citizenship in Ghana now are being nickeled and dimed to death with fees and having to return back to immigration offices regularly. There is a bill pending in the Ghanaian Parliament to address some of the issues but it has been pending for over a year now with no end in sight! Many from the diaspora see the year return as nothing but a money grab to use African Americans and African Caribbeans etc. as cash cows. I know of many African Americans who have been in Ghana upwards to 12 years but now have left Ghana and moved to Rwanda which makes residency so much more easy. Research the facts for yourselves.
@@RochelleLangread the title of the video though… The point being made is that it’s VERY MUCH not FREE. The USA doesn’t say they give free citizenship and it’s notorious for not being super easy.
I did the DNA testing and discovered I am 41% Nigerian! That was a real wake-up call ancestrally. While I would love to visit, I do wonder about the reception from those who are Native Africans. The harsh reality is, many Africans come to America and are extremely mean to Blacks here. Because of that, it's difficult to imagine going to "their" country and being warmly received.
You are African and not black my beautiful sister. I am Nigerian and welcome you. Pls try to find out what part of Nigeria you are from, it's good to know this. Welcome home sister.
True. It's because they have been taught by their colonizers to avoid us when they come to America. Unfortunately, it's identical to the fear that we have of Africa and the African people. I would post videos during my stay in Rwanda, and instead of my followers, mostly family and friends, could on CAUTION ME TO BE EVERY SO CAREFUL. I told them I felt safer in Africa where the COVID deaths were still in single digits while America was reaching a million deaths. We still have a long way to go before we really see Africans and African Americans as family.
@@ahmedkadiri1127 Yes, I per my DNA results, I have Nigerian ancestors.... and Finland! Apparently, one of the colonizers snatched one of my ancestors because my very dark father had good hair and deep blue eyes and mine are hazel/green and change colors according to my moods.
At 3:41 this video has asserted that Kenya announced "consideration" of granting citizenship to black Americans. To date and to my knowledge this "consideration" has not resulted in any recognizable action. I know as I'm currently living here through a residency permit costing about $3,000. In 2018, there is no specific information indicating that Kenya initiated moves to grant residency or citizenship to Africans in the diaspora. However, some relevant points are: Immigrants can apply for permanent residency in Kenya after seven years of legally living and working in the country. Applicants must also reside in Kenya for the three years preceding the application and demonstrate skills, education, and finances that will contribute to the country's overall development. In 2010, Kenya extended voting rights to its estimated 3 million citizens living abroad. It appears that while Kenya has some provisions for immigrants and its diaspora, there is no specific initiative from 2018 to present focused on granting residency or citizenship to Africans in the diaspora.
I wonder how these people will prove their ancestral ties.....it all sounds like bs to me. ......not 1 country in the list has extended a clear path to citizenship. It seems as if they are appealing to the children and grandchildren of people with direct linkages to the various countries .
@kerubel1436 I was wondering exactly the same thing. I didn't want to be negative, but one major objective of slavery was to erase any connection to specific African regions, cultures, and languages. I could be a mix of the entire Sahel.
@@carpediem44 and that you are....after over 400 years of mixing with all the various tribes taken from africa it seems odd that the duasporans dna is simply relegated to 3 to 4 specific tribes when they do a dna test. There were hundreds of tribes taken from africa from north ,south east and west not to mention the many indigenous black tribes that were already in the americas.....frankly the math aint mathin
Remove South Africa. We are definitely not offering them citizenship. We treat them like we do any other individuals who come legally. We are far from the slave trade route, so we don't owe them anything. No ancestral ties here.
I’m so happy to see this, African-American enjoying that wonderful feeling you’ll get from being an African citizen. You’re a great people, and now you’re a citizen of a great continent. Please remember your ancestors left it for you. 1❤ from 🇯🇲
SORRY TO SAY WHO EVER YOU ARE PRAISING THE BLACKS WHO THINK THEY WILL BE BETTER OFF IN AFRICA NO SUCH LUCK AFRICA CANT TAKE CARE OF THEIR OWN PEOPLE WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN TO THE FOOLISH BLACKS WHO WANTS TO GO BACK TO THE MOTHER COUNTRY WHEN THE BOLLARS ARE GONE CANT PAY MEDICAL BILLS AND OTHER BILLS ARE PILEING UP AND THEY CANT GO NACK TO THEIR OWN COUNTRY WELL GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL GO TO AFRICA ALL YOU LIKE THE SAME AFRICANS WILL START GIVING YOU PEOPLE A HARD TIME AND WHERE MAY I ASKED YOU ARE GOING TO GO BACK TO YOU GAVE UP YOUR PLACE OF BIRTH TO A PLACE TOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT STUPID PEOPLE
I would prefer "honorary citizenship" rather than "free citizenship" It was about time. It is a beautiful initiative for forgiveness and a promise of a greater future to come. The secular dividers of the children of Africa must fear not for humanity is entering a new transformative reality of oneness. It is time for Joseph to come home. Let us learn from the Liberian fiasco and let us overcome poison of divisions that will certainly be distilled soon or later from the same ones. Let us rejoice and welcome our brothers and sisters to our common motherland.
We really deserve honorary citizenship since our ancestors were forced to leave our homeland. We should be able to come home if that's a desire no matter what part of the world our ancestors landed. We have been scattered all over the globe. I am not sure if the movement is about correcting a wrong and truly building a community/bond of the black race. Only God knows the true motive. Bottom line, I am overjoyed that the avenue is available. God bless our people all around the globe. We are a great nation who deserves to be united on the great shores of AFRICA if the heart desires.
...the semantics of connotations are highly important in advertising, so ye "honorary citizenship" would have been far better! But ye, a new era! Wow, you sound really worldly and well read! ...the poisons of division will surely be brewing somewhere! We gotta strengthen up our collective identity I guess? Be well, live long!
So you think "oneness" is people not spreading to other countries but just going back to their ancestors' home and keeping to your own people? Did I miss something?
Very appreciative of the useful information. In opposition to the misused terminology. African, then following with (black Americans), as if there is a disconnect between the two. No attribution to our heritage
It is a great idea. Economic opportunity in and of itself is not a bad thing. What you do with it afterwards is the only determinant of what is good and bad. This gives other nations a window into investing into these African nations, it gives the black diaspora a home 1st, 2nd, backup home, etc. It of course can help those African nations as well by enriching the communities. On its face there are no downsides.
I can hardly express my happiness seeing that something is being done to help the black race. they never should have been kidnapped in the first place and I hope all who decide to return to their native land find happiness in their new dwelling. Thank God for this wonderful blessed gift.
Most were not kidnapped though. It was a Atlantic slave trade. They were sold for trivial things like mirrors, and alcohol by their own people. If you really want reparations you’d be better off asking African countries leaders that were involved in the trade for that money.
@@earth8865 It was the white man who enslaved them and beat them and raped them and worked them to death, sold their children, sold their own children into slavery if the black woman they raped had a child. Yes, they were kidnapped by the evil white man whose cruelty to the other races is criminal. the same God created all the races and they are to be treated equality. Remember what Jesus said, "What you do to the least of these, you do unto me" You just might want to remember that.
@earth8865 this ignorant statement normally takes thing out if context to try and cover a agenda, normally done by white supremacist or self hating black folks.
It is a great 1st step toward repairing the damage of Slavery and Colonialism. .I live in America and it's a very dangerous time for us here. Having a homeland means Soo much to the Black Americans identity.
@@lamh5265That's because of not being here because of free will or want. Being in the USA was because of force from slavery. Europeans came here because they wanted to ...big difference.
We truly deserve it. For those of us who can afford to contribute to society, it can be done if we have the opportunity. It’s not as easy as you think. Some people have hateful sentiment towards Black Americans. Not understanding how our Ancestors had to endure so much in the United States. I’m proud of my people 🇺🇸, I am proud of my experience traveling worldwide and having opportunities. I would like to explore Kenya, Senegal, and other places.
You will be surprised to learn that the vast majority of Africans do not share the sentiments of those few “haters” you may have been exposed to in the US. Africans know very well what our brothers and sisters and the ancestors went through, and continue to deal with today.
@@notinterested8452 many people are leaving. Just because you don’t know about it doesn’t mean it’s not happening. 3 of my friends are now living in Africa😂
Many of us were already here. Most brown skinned Americans are natives to this land. That part of his story is not told. Color has always been a way to control people. Most people in the world are the same. Not the 1%, so let's act like it. Nice info in the video.
Foundational black American here 👋🏽 No thank you. Outside of a safari, I have no reason to go to Africa. My black American family has been in America for centuries. Culturally I'm way too westernized. Even though those are Black people, they are still very foreign to me, as I am to them. Black American 1st, and for life ✊🏽🇺🇲
🇺🇸 FBA South Georgia, north Florida, and south Alabama rooted, you already know the play. I also say no thank you. You don’t need to go abroad to find your culture or ancestors, FBA.
Thank you for making this video! I will now take a DNA test to figure out where in Africa my family was stolen! And make appropriate steps to gain citizenship there*** I love being on African soil. It feels more like home than than the U.S.❤❤❤
Sounds like a great opportunity for Africa, if black Americans with wealth take the plunge, Africa needs to get control of police and govt offices to prevent corruption,
Kenya's a very corrupt country, and has always been a Slave to the U.S. and Europe. I always laugh when I see their judges with the 18th century european wigs
A tip to the video makers: trying to sell citizenship/migration to Africa using celebrities is ridiculous. We know we are not going to be welcomed like Oprah. And Sweden would give citizenship to Oprah. It would have been far smarter to have featured African American teachers, accountants, nurses, doctors, and car mechanics who decided to relocate to Africa instead of celebrities.
Yes this a very important, Symbolic and unified decision for Africa to do embarrassing their people. Finally, it helps African people to unite as one. It helps the mother land to find its place, which has one voice in the world.
We on our way to Africa we coming brothers & sisters might as well get use to us being back home but no worries cuz well bring all our American skills with us to help build Africa back up like we did for America see ya soon ❤

@@mono1885 “They get to collect tax…”Unless you mean they get jobs in the Taxation Office or are running multi $million corporations, it’ll cost more providing for them than they collect. But it’s citizenship, not residence. The US citizens won’t immigrate into a “developing” economy.

So so glad to hear this! 38 years old and within the last 5+ years I’ve been focused seriously on educating myself on Continental Africa (deep ancient/colonial/post colonial and current) as well as deep African American history. It has brought me so close to my roots it’s changed my life and perspective second to my personal development as a human being. I’m at the place in my life where it’s either stay here in the U.S. and endure this place or take my saved money and relocate to an African nation. Been going back and forth mentally for years. The decision really is a no-brainer especially after all that I have educated myself on how profoundly colonized our people have been and still are. I’ve got to get home and help empower our people through not only our spirits, minds, souls but also put my brainpower and economical contribution to my own people instead of a nation that is conditional upon the love they have for us.
"and still are" Nope. You can't be the dominant privileged majority and still claim you are oppressed. "a nation that is conditional upon the love they have for us." Nope. When the dominant privileged majority shows favoritism to the dominant privileged majority, it's racial supremacy. If you want to be black and oppressed but proud, stay in USA. If you want to be privileged, but not be able to say you are oppressed and proud, go to Africa.
Africa needs to call all her children back home and receive them back into their communities that they were forcibly removed from. Can you imagine if all the descendants of Africa were to return back to Africa from all parts of the world? With all that we’ve acquired and accomplished? Africa must wake up and feel PROUD of her descendants who persevered through horrendous atrocities yet prevailed to become THE BEST IN SPORTS, MUSIC, MEDICINE, TECHNOLOGY AND ANY AREA WE WERE PUT IN 🎉Africa Unite. Be proud of your children at home or abroad. Africa Forever
There are billions of Africans in Africa who flee from their countries everyday. Why isn’t there any energy and effort behind encouraging their young ppl to return home and use their education to invest in their homeland? And why focus on Black Americans??? Africa doesn’t have a population issue….so we are not needed. When will SOMEONE KEEP IT REAL ABOUT THIS AGENDA?
I’m sure In some ways however unfortunately, at the highest levels many foreign companies and powers still have to stronghold on aspects. The British still control and own the gold/diamond/copper/oil/silver mines, France still is taking money from the former African colonies, and the list goes on…nevertheless this return of brain power, financial resources, educated beings does help.
Wow! This is amazing! I did not know this was happening. I’m spanish but we ALL have ancestry that is rooted in slavery and from Africa. I would still take advantage of this if my roots traced back to any of these countries. Absolutely!
Interesting! The video focusses on African Americans. How about other parts of the African diaspora? Do e.g. people from the West Indies (e.g. now living in Britain) qualify for these programs of "return"? Hopefully the African countries filter out people with criminal intentions and can attract people that want to honestly benefit their brothers and sisters in the country of their ancestral roots.
I’m here already!❤ Africa isn’t perfect but where is? It’s beautiful, the food is REAL, and it’s summer ALL YEAR! 🎉 I feel very safe here. ❤ People are welcoming and your dollars can go very far if you have a plan for your future!🎉
America is Africa! We were already here before the continental drift!!! We are everywhere because we are the original people on the planet!!!!! Blacks, African Americans whatever name you call us; we are all linked to one another no matter where we are!! THOSE ARE THE FACTS!!!!!!
I am not sure that it is a good decision, only because I don't know what the leader's true motives are, for allowing this Open Door Hospitality. Because I only saw in this video, People who are prominent and have made a lot of money. What about an average Black person, who is not educated, wealthy, Older, or ex-convicts? I truly do not know enough about the culture of any of these countries, to make an intelligent decision. What are the laws and limitations about these countries? What are their Health Care Facilities Like; Their foods and nutritional values? There Exchange Systems? Their Hygiene and Water Systems? Their Housing and Lodging Accommodations? Their true hospitality? Their hospital care? Their indigenous practices and their influence cf executing them? There are oh so many many unknown questions! Because I have not studied nor visited nor know anyone personally to confide in about these Countries. It will take years and years for me to learn and try to accept their new cultures!! Because I am quite sure, that they all have different standards of living for their Haves and Have Nots, Just Like All Other Countries!!
My Nigerian husband worked so hard to get his American citizenship. He would positively freak if I voiced a desire to get a Nigerian or Ghana citizenship based on my ancestry. Nor can I see African Americans moving to a country where the inhabitants struggle to find work. What is the point of a citizenship in name only. Or is this kind of like buying a small piece of land so you can claim to be Lord/Lady?
I look forward to the day there is mutual investment from countries such as Ghana. For example if something were to happen in the US to an African American with Ghanaian Citizenship the country would have that person’s back FROM A NATION STATE STANCE. We need mutual protection the same way other groups have that protection because America will never do that for us!
I am an ADOS Lesbian and unfortunately, the archaic laws that exist in these countries are scary as hell...Please do extensive research before relocating anywhere (I know that goes without saying) but, our desire to go back to our Mother has caused some hasty decisions to be made by some. Dual-Citizenship at best, so if you are in trouble you can go to an embassy for help...
Most of my dna comes from Benin and Togo , I cannot wait to visit and sign the book , go to the beach in Togo ( I love beaches I’m Caribbean ) , idk if I will live there but I so cannot wait to see my people :)
Indigenous Americans feel safe in Africa because they were colonized and had similar experiences with Europeans but the Africans history wasn’t totally rewritten as the indigenous Americans was. I just wish the Americans had researched their actual history and not take for granted what white Americans history books (daughters of the confederacy wrote)lied to them about.
I was born American. I dislike this idea that we belong somewhere else because we share dark skin. I am proud to be an American, that is my homeland. Africa has nothing to do with non-Immigrant blacks.
I think the west coast of Africa should offer this almost as a form of reparations for having participated in the slave trade. It’s a win-win for them anyway. African Americans are the wealthiest, most educated, most innovative black people on the planet.
Great Video I've always had roots and Family in Africa however my immediate Family is here my legacy is here and what matters to me Faith-Family and Finance. Thank You For Sharing now lets share how other nationalities in America can also relocate to their original Ancestorial Countries across the world. Might just benefit them also Irish, Polish, Italian, Chinese, Japanese's etc. where I spent time in Nagoya very awesome place. America becoming a very angry Country for some reason focusing on animosity as away of life. "That's why i live in a small town we don't even have a Mayor currently we live by the rules of respect and looking past the outer shell of a person and looking at their essence. I am from Chicago came down to help a subsidiary of my Company and never returned relocated my Family and just the essence of Family and Neighborly love after 20yrs has been so rewarding in our lives. Good Luck and always enjoy life with positivity and love for one another why because every tik of the clock moves you closer to your expiration date.
My ancestors came from The Netherlands, Denmark, France, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, Germany and Sicily. Yet I do not hyphenate those origins with what I am, an American. I've no desire to visit any of those homelands. America is my homeland.
You mean stollen? Sold hasn't been proven. Enslaved has been proven, however. Everything else is up for speculation. Something similar went on in England before 1840 and after. They had children working for well. For example, several white children would stand on a tredmill type devise, make it roll under their feet, and it could have been for heating a home or moving water from one location to another. They were not stollen either, but, enslaved.
Of course there is pushback if the African diaspora unite we are a very power group of people. Look at the concerted efforts throughout the decades to keep division. With the investments back into the continent it become stronger despite the centuries of thievery and rape of the Motherland.
My 4th and 5th great grand father was kidnapped from Africa id love to return to the motherland. I have the evidence of African descendants . How do i make this offer happen ?
Black people from all over the world should be given citizenship, if they want, regardless of their financial status. The countries that they are leaving should help them to make that transition through reparations.
Genesis 15:12 And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and, lo, an horror of great darkness fell upon him. Genesis 15:13 And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years; Genesis 15:14 And also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward shall they come out with great substance. Acts 7:6 And God spake on this wise, That his seed should sojourn in a strange land; and that they should bring them into bondage, and entreat them evil four hundred years. Acts 7:7 And the nation to whom they shall be in bondage will I judge, said God: and after that shall they come forth, and serve me in this place.
Here we go! "Crabs in a barrel." Why hating on African Americans getting citizenship??? Others of us in other countries in the Western Hemisphere need to be doing the same addressing this to African countries on the continent. Brazil has the largest number of us. Are they establishing connection to the mother land, especially Guninea-Bissau, Angola and Mozambique? I know Jamaica and Barbados establishing relationship. Yes, we all should unite as one group as the African Diasporans. Citizenship gonna be obtained country-by-country in relationship to the country of your current residence. In this case, African Americans are connecting. Other of us of another nationality (Jamaican, Cuban, Haitian, etc.), join and do your part rather than act like injustice excluded you because you are not African American. Also allow people to lead the way!
This is a great opportunity 4 the original people of the planet. Unity amongst self = peace and prosperity which is always most needed amongst those who have been divided from culture stolen and enslaved by devils 2 get back 2 there original land and culture
Our ancestors did not have the chance to say goodbye to their family and friends, they also had their family nucleus disconnected when they arrived in the Americas, this, the African diaspora, is the saddest and most impressive unfair story of the entire human trajectory.
I think people have a misunderstanding of being "given citizenship". Its not like a Costco card where you pay $50 and you're in. You'll still have to follow the process they have which will include forms and fees, just like everywhere else.😊
I think that the African countries are pointing in the right direction in it's inclusiveness of People of proven African ancestry of the African country that they mostly descended from. I'm praying for Africa to rebuild bigger and better and eventually prevail and prosper above and beyond current expectation and above standard. May Africa be blessed in every possible and impossible way. May African Americans be able to maintain dual citizenship as many of our of ancestors and current day people have helped to build America free of charge and helped to fight for America as well.

Remove South Africa. We are definitely not offering them citizenship. We treat them like we do any other individuals who come legally. We are far from the slave trade route, so we don't owe them anything. No ancestral ties here.
Thank you for this...
Sierra Leone can be added to the list. Last year I received citizenship of descent.
It Will be difficult for Cameroon to be added to this list. Which i don't know why
I’m so happy to see this, African-American enjoying that wonderful feeling you’ll get from being an African citizen. You’re a great people, and now you’re a citizen of a great continent. Please remember your ancestors left it for you. 1❤ from 🇯🇲
SORRY TO SAY WHO EVER YOU ARE PRAISING THE BLACKS WHO THINK THEY WILL BE BETTER OFF IN AFRICA NO SUCH LUCK AFRICA CANT TAKE CARE OF THEIR OWN PEOPLE WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN TO THE FOOLISH BLACKS WHO WANTS TO GO BACK TO THE MOTHER COUNTRY WHEN THE BOLLARS ARE GONE CANT PAY MEDICAL BILLS AND OTHER BILLS ARE PILEING UP AND THEY CANT GO NACK TO THEIR OWN COUNTRY WELL GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL GO TO AFRICA ALL YOU LIKE THE SAME AFRICANS WILL START GIVING YOU PEOPLE A HARD TIME AND WHERE MAY I ASKED YOU ARE GOING TO GO BACK TO YOU GAVE UP YOUR PLACE OF BIRTH TO A PLACE TOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT STUPID PEOPLE
...."our ancestors left it for us?" That's a nice way of putting it! Thank you.
Africa is not a country, you can't be a African citizen ...but I see what u mean I guess
Citizens of the world. We belong anywhere in the world. Citizen of the continent, they belong anywhere on the continent. 1❤️🇯🇲 PAN-AFRICANIST FOREVER
Our ancestors are from AMERICA. Not africa. Who wants to come over there? Ppl are shittin in streets there. Im cool in the homeland my family built
I would prefer "honorary citizenship" rather than "free citizenship" It was about time. It is a beautiful initiative for forgiveness and a promise of a greater future to come. The secular dividers of the children of Africa must fear not for humanity is entering a new transformative reality of oneness. It is time for Joseph to come home. Let us learn from the Liberian fiasco and let us overcome poison of divisions that will certainly be distilled soon or later from the same ones. Let us rejoice and welcome our brothers and sisters to our common motherland.
We really deserve honorary citizenship since our ancestors were forced to leave our homeland. We should be able to come home if that's a desire no matter what part of the world our ancestors landed. We have been scattered all over the globe. I am not sure if the movement is about correcting a wrong and truly building a community/bond of the black race. Only God knows the true motive. Bottom line, I am overjoyed that the avenue is available. God bless our people all around the globe. We are a great nation who deserves to be united on the great shores of AFRICA if the heart desires.
...the semantics of connotations are highly important in advertising, so ye "honorary citizenship" would have been far better! But ye, a new era! Wow, you sound really worldly and well read! ...the poisons of division will surely be brewing somewhere! We gotta strengthen up our collective identity I guess? Be well, live long!
So you think "oneness" is people not spreading to other countries but just going back to their ancestors' home and keeping to your own people? Did I miss something?
Thank You and Much Love from The States!! ❤🖤💚👑
Thank you for this! I have been looking all over for a video showing countries welcoming black diaspora.
I didn't know that! That is just great. African Americans should take advantage of this dual citizenship.

Absolutely 💯 😊😊😊😊
Very appreciative of the useful information.
In opposition to the misused terminology.
African, then following with (black Americans), as if there is a disconnect between the two. No attribution to our heritage
It is a great idea. Economic opportunity in and of itself is not a bad thing. What you do with it afterwards is the only determinant of what is good and bad. This gives other nations a window into investing into these African nations, it gives the black diaspora a home 1st, 2nd, backup home, etc. It of course can help those African nations as well by enriching the communities. On its face there are no downsides.
I can hardly express my happiness seeing that something is being done to help the black race. they never should have been kidnapped in the first place and I hope all who decide to return to their native land find happiness in their new dwelling. Thank God for this wonderful blessed gift.
Most were not kidnapped though. It was a Atlantic slave trade. They were sold for trivial things like mirrors, and alcohol by their own people. If you really want reparations you’d be better off asking African countries leaders that were involved in the trade for that money.
@@earth8865most were kidnapped. The vast majority of enslaved Africans were captured by white colonizers.
@@earth8865 It was the white man who enslaved them and beat them and raped them and worked them to death, sold their children, sold their own children into slavery if the black woman they raped had a child. Yes, they were kidnapped by the evil white man whose cruelty to the other races is criminal. the same God created all the races and they are to be treated equality. Remember what Jesus said, "What you do to the least of these, you do unto me" You just might want to remember that.
You can't stop them from waring against each, other, you can't stop the fn idi Amin's
they're everywhere ..,
@earth8865 this ignorant statement normally takes thing out if context to try and cover a agenda, normally done by white supremacist or self hating black folks.
That’s what’s up… I plan to complete my ancestry soon and find out where I fit I’m 😁
This is a beautiful thing and I that more African countries will this gift to even more of us around the world.
You have to pay with every country listed. IT'S A MONEY GRAB.
Ty for this video. I would’ve had no idea. Just knowing this is making me want to cry.
It is a great 1st step toward repairing the damage of Slavery and Colonialism. .I live in America and it's a very dangerous time for us here. Having a homeland means Soo much to the Black Americans identity.
That is sad that you don't feel connect to the USA.
@@lamh5265That's because of not being here because of free will or want.
Being in the USA was because of force from slavery.
Europeans came here because they wanted to ...big difference.
We truly deserve it. For those of us who can afford to contribute to society, it can be done if we have the opportunity. It’s not as easy as you think. Some people have hateful sentiment towards Black Americans. Not understanding how our Ancestors had to endure so much in the United States. I’m proud of my people 🇺🇸, I am proud of my experience traveling worldwide and having opportunities. I would like to explore Kenya, Senegal, and other places.
You will be surprised to learn that the vast majority of Africans do not share the sentiments of those few “haters” you may have been exposed to in the US.
Africans know very well what our brothers and sisters and the ancestors went through, and continue to deal with today.
😂why isn't everyone rushing there..
Thank you for sharing
@@notinterested8452 many people are leaving. Just because you don’t know about it doesn’t mean it’s not happening. 3 of my friends are now living in Africa😂
@@78vette11 glad 😊 to hear and best wishes.
Many of us were already here. Most brown skinned Americans are natives to this land. That part of his story is not told. Color has always been a way to control people. Most people in the world are the same. Not the 1%, so let's act like it. Nice info in the video.
I totally agree with you
Foundational black American here 👋🏽
No thank you. Outside of a safari, I have no reason to go to Africa. My black American family has been in America for centuries. Culturally I'm way too westernized. Even though those are Black people, they are still very foreign to me, as I am to them. Black American 1st, and for life ✊🏽🇺🇲
🇺🇸 FBA South Georgia, north Florida, and south Alabama rooted, you already know the play. I also say no thank you. You don’t need to go abroad to find your culture or ancestors, FBA.
More power and respect to you! To each their own. Love for you regardless! ✊🏿✊🏿
FBA 💜✊🏾
Yes I agree. African culture is very different from the USA.
And that’s okay too
Thank you for making this video! I will now take a DNA test to figure out where in Africa my family was stolen! And make appropriate steps to gain citizenship there*** I love being on African soil. It feels more like home than than the U.S.❤❤❤
Sounds like a great opportunity for Africa, if black Americans with wealth take the plunge, Africa needs to get control of police and govt offices to prevent corruption,
Africans don't need black Americans, there is an actual African diaspora, people from Africa, why would we need black Americans.
With wealth...😅Every other slave descendants I guess don't matter.
Wow a wonderful opportunity for closure and enhancement, Thank you
YES!!! These countries are there for you! Please move there and enjoy the beauty!
Thanks for this video.
Im going to visit kenya next year
Hope you enjoy your stay here
Kenya's a very corrupt country, and has always been a Slave to the U.S. and Europe. I always laugh when I see their judges with the 18th century european wigs
Welcome home.
A tip to the video makers: trying to sell citizenship/migration to Africa using celebrities is ridiculous. We know we are not going to be welcomed like Oprah. And Sweden would give citizenship to Oprah. It would have been far smarter to have featured African American teachers, accountants, nurses, doctors, and car mechanics who decided to relocate to Africa instead of celebrities.
🌹
Okay, I don’t want to be no where near Oprah. She sold her soul
100% thank you!
Yes this a very important, Symbolic and unified decision for Africa to do embarrassing their people. Finally, it helps African people to unite as one. It helps the mother land to find its place, which has one voice in the world.
I am from Nigeria I want all black to come to African to live as they want.
I also don’t want to move somewhere that is ruled by another Foreign country.
Judah. It's. Almost time to. Go home amen

My great-grandmother is black and I truly wonder where in Africa her ancestors came from.
We on our way to Africa we coming brothers & sisters might as well get use to us being back home but no worries cuz well bring all our American skills with us to help build Africa back up like we did for America see ya soon ❤
LOVE THAT MINDSET!
@ancientafricanblood1547 any blacks from America wise enough to make it over there for longer then a week visit are coming to build somthing that they can't build in the US
What's in it for either the African nation or the US citizen, with the possible explanation of emotional satisfaction for the latter ?
@@mono1885 “They get to collect tax…”Unless you mean they get jobs in the Taxation Office or are running multi $million corporations, it’ll cost more providing for them than they collect. But it’s citizenship, not residence. The US citizens won’t immigrate into a “developing” economy.
Yes, they will, if they know true history and when they realise that the 'developed' nations are really the pirates whose wealth is from robbing 'resource-rich so called developing nations.@@angusmckenzie9622
Our Ancestral roots are right here in America! But it doesn't hurt to go places where we aren't always looking over our shoulders! Just remember we inhabited the entire planet! The whole planet is ours.

@@espanolagilliam9354 economic reasons. African presidents sabotage their own economies through corruption.
So so glad to hear this! 38 years old and within the last 5+ years I’ve been focused seriously on educating myself on Continental Africa (deep ancient/colonial/post colonial and current) as well as deep African American history. It has brought me so close to my roots it’s changed my life and perspective second to my personal development as a human being. I’m at the place in my life where it’s either stay here in the U.S. and endure this place or take my saved money and relocate to an African nation. Been going back and forth mentally for years. The decision really is a no-brainer especially after all that I have educated myself on how profoundly colonized our people have been and still are. I’ve got to get home and help empower our people through not only our spirits, minds, souls but also put my brainpower and economical contribution to my own people instead of a nation that is conditional upon the love they have for us.
"and still are"
Nope. You can't be the dominant privileged majority and still claim you are oppressed.
"a nation that is conditional upon the love they have for us."
Nope. When the dominant privileged majority shows favoritism to the dominant privileged majority, it's racial supremacy.
If you want to be black and oppressed but proud, stay in USA.
If you want to be privileged, but not be able to say you are oppressed and proud, go to Africa.
Look folks, we have another commenter speaking without knowledge and education, but you are an "anime fan", says it all. @@someanimefan5990
I would love to recommend Uganda but even the visa process is too much work
Africa needs to call all her children back home and receive them back into their communities that they were forcibly removed from. Can you imagine if all the descendants of Africa were to return back to Africa from all parts of the world? With all that we’ve acquired and accomplished? Africa must wake up and feel PROUD of her descendants who persevered through horrendous atrocities yet prevailed to become THE BEST IN SPORTS, MUSIC, MEDICINE, TECHNOLOGY AND ANY AREA WE WERE PUT IN 🎉Africa Unite. Be proud of your children at home or abroad. Africa Forever
That’s awesome, I’m coming home!! We finna Re-Build!! and start businesses 💯
There are billions of Africans in Africa who flee from their countries everyday. Why isn’t there any energy and effort behind encouraging their young ppl to return home and use their education to invest in their homeland?
And why focus on Black Americans??? Africa doesn’t have a population issue….so we are not needed. When will SOMEONE KEEP IT REAL ABOUT THIS AGENDA?
Great question 🤔
This is another good step towards Africa gaining power and independence from western colonialism
I’m sure In some ways however unfortunately, at the highest levels many foreign companies and powers still have to stronghold on aspects. The British still control and own the gold/diamond/copper/oil/silver mines, France still is taking money from the former African colonies, and the list goes on…nevertheless this return of brain power, financial resources, educated beings does help.
Wow! This is amazing! I did not know this was happening. I’m spanish but we ALL have ancestry that is rooted in slavery and from Africa. I would still take advantage of this if my roots traced back to any of these countries. Absolutely!
I want to go home!
Interesting! The video focusses on African Americans. How about other parts of the African diaspora? Do e.g. people from the West Indies (e.g. now living in Britain) qualify for these programs of "return"? Hopefully the African countries filter out people with criminal intentions and can attract people that want to honestly benefit their brothers and sisters in the country of their ancestral roots.
I’m here already!❤ Africa isn’t perfect but where is? It’s beautiful, the food is REAL, and it’s summer ALL YEAR! 🎉 I feel very safe here. ❤ People are welcoming and your dollars can go very far if you have a plan for your future!🎉
I NEED TO LOOK INTO THIS...
I am happy for anyone who takes this journey. I wish more Black people in America knew
America is Africa! We were already here before the continental drift!!! We are everywhere because we are the original people on the planet!!!!! Blacks, African Americans whatever name you call us; we are all linked to one another no matter where we are!! THOSE ARE THE FACTS!!!!!!
How about the people from South America and the diaspora?? I would love to go to Kenya.
You can always visit Kenya with out living there😊
@@sadyadey782 I surely will ☺️🤗
I am not sure that it is a good decision, only because I don't know what the leader's true motives are, for allowing this Open Door Hospitality.
Because I only saw in this video, People who are prominent and have made a lot of money. What about an average Black person, who is not educated, wealthy, Older, or ex-convicts?
I truly do not know enough about the culture of any of these countries, to make an intelligent decision. What are the laws and limitations about these countries?
What are their Health Care Facilities Like; Their foods and nutritional values? There Exchange Systems? Their Hygiene and Water Systems? Their Housing and Lodging Accommodations? Their true hospitality? Their hospital care? Their indigenous practices and their influence cf executing them?
There are oh so many many unknown questions! Because I have not studied nor visited nor know anyone personally to confide in about these Countries. It will take years and years for me to learn and try to accept their new cultures!! Because I am quite sure, that they all have different standards of living for their Haves and Have Nots, Just Like All Other Countries!!
Great video. I want to find out my ancestry from Africa
My Nigerian husband worked so hard to get his American citizenship. He would positively freak if I voiced a desire to get a Nigerian or Ghana citizenship based on my ancestry. Nor can I see African Americans moving to a country where the inhabitants struggle to find work. What is the point of a citizenship in name only. Or is this kind of like buying a small piece of land so you can claim to be Lord/Lady?
No one is compelling you to come. It's your choice so use it as you please.
I look forward to the day there is mutual investment from countries such as Ghana. For example if something were to happen in the US to an African American with Ghanaian Citizenship the country would have that person’s back FROM A NATION STATE STANCE. We need mutual protection the same way other groups have that protection because America will never do that for us!
How does one go about trying to get Zimbabwean or South African citizenship? Can anyone advise?
My lovely Kenya 🇰🇪 is offering a safe haven to our people in the diaspora.
Now our brothers will know we have them at heart...every black live matters to us here in Africa
Praise God!
Im saving all my money and leaving America for good.
my husband served in the South African national defense forces and is proud of his service his ancestors and relatives come from Eswatini.
I love it! I'm glad to see it!
I am an ADOS Lesbian and unfortunately, the archaic laws that exist in these countries are scary as hell...Please do extensive research before relocating anywhere (I know that goes without saying) but, our desire to go back to our Mother has caused some hasty decisions to be made by some. Dual-Citizenship at best, so if you are in trouble you can go to an embassy for help...
I thought along those lines as you,me being an Atheist I wonder how that would be looked upon in whatever country in Africa I go to.
Your safest bet is South Africa. You can marry and adopt there
Keep that shIt out of Africa!
I got my permanent residence (green card) for Nigeria. So I don't have to put up with the mzungus crap much longer.
Most of my dna comes from Benin and Togo , I cannot wait to visit and sign the book , go to the beach in Togo ( I love beaches I’m Caribbean ) , idk if I will live there but I so cannot wait to see my people :)
This video is fake. Do 5 minutes of research and you will see.
Only if you're rich. If they have tribalism within each other the hate for us Acatas will be devastating🤔
What about your ability to purchase property or businesses ?
I’m sure that will be favored to us as well.
Golden opportunity for Afro American Leadership.
Indigenous Americans feel safe in Africa because they were colonized and had similar experiences with Europeans but the Africans history wasn’t totally rewritten as the indigenous Americans was. I just wish the Americans had researched their actual history and not take for granted what white Americans history books (daughters of the confederacy wrote)lied to them about.
this shit gotta be AI generated
I was born American. I dislike this idea that we belong somewhere else because we share dark skin. I am proud to be an American, that is my homeland. Africa has nothing to do with non-Immigrant blacks.
I think the west coast of Africa should offer this almost as a form of reparations for having participated in the slave trade. It’s a win-win for them anyway. African Americans are the wealthiest, most educated, most innovative black people on the planet.
One day, the average black diasporan will be able to afford to go back
What about the British Black Nergerians 😊
Great Video I've always had roots and Family in Africa however my immediate Family is here my legacy is here and what matters to me Faith-Family and Finance. Thank You For Sharing now lets share how other nationalities in America can also relocate to their original Ancestorial Countries across the world. Might just benefit them also Irish, Polish, Italian, Chinese, Japanese's etc. where I spent time in Nagoya very awesome place. America becoming a very angry Country for some reason focusing on animosity as away of life. "That's why i live in a small town we don't even have a Mayor currently we live by the rules of respect and looking past the outer shell of a person and looking at their essence. I am from Chicago came down to help a subsidiary of my Company and never returned relocated my Family and just the essence of Family and Neighborly love after 20yrs has been so rewarding in our lives. Good Luck and always enjoy life with positivity and love for one another why because every tik of the clock moves you closer to your expiration date.
My ancestors came from The Netherlands, Denmark, France, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, Germany and Sicily. Yet I do not hyphenate those origins with what I am, an American. I've no desire to visit any of those homelands. America is my homeland.
I can say I'm interested in this video but to say "love" it is someone being too optimistic
I’ve been thinking of getting dual citizenship for a while now
We love this! Our beautiful stolen people.
Glad you love it 💙
You mean stollen? Sold hasn't been proven. Enslaved has been proven, however. Everything else is up for speculation. Something similar went on in England before 1840 and after. They had children working for well. For example, several white children would stand on a tredmill type devise, make it roll under their feet, and it could have been for heating a home or moving water from one location to another. They were not stollen either, but, enslaved.
Of course there is pushback if the African diaspora unite we are a very power group of people. Look at the concerted efforts throughout the decades to keep division. With the investments back into the continent it become stronger despite the centuries of thievery and rape of the Motherland.
We don't want it, we built America SMH
All countries mentioned in this article should be completely investigated by anyone interested in permanently moving moving there
My 4th and 5th great grand father was kidnapped from Africa id love to return to the motherland. I have the evidence of African descendants . How do i make this offer happen ?
Black people from all over the world should be given citizenship, if they want, regardless of their financial status. The countries that they are leaving should help them to make that transition through reparations.
Genesis 15:12 And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and, lo, an horror of great darkness fell upon him.
Genesis 15:13 And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years;
Genesis 15:14 And also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward shall they come out with great substance.
Acts 7:6 And God spake on this wise, That his seed should sojourn in a strange land; and that they should bring them into bondage, and entreat them evil four hundred years.
Acts 7:7 And the nation to whom they shall be in bondage will I judge, said God: and after that shall they come forth, and serve me in this place.
Here we go! "Crabs in a barrel." Why hating on African Americans getting citizenship??? Others of us in other countries in the Western Hemisphere need to be doing the same addressing this to African countries on the continent. Brazil has the largest number of us. Are they establishing connection to the mother land, especially Guninea-Bissau, Angola and Mozambique? I know Jamaica and Barbados establishing relationship. Yes, we all should unite as one group as the African Diasporans. Citizenship gonna be obtained country-by-country in relationship to the country of your current residence. In this case, African Americans are connecting. Other of us of another nationality (Jamaican, Cuban, Haitian, etc.), join and do your part rather than act like injustice excluded you because you are not African American. Also allow people to lead the way!
It's weird that you didn't mention Sierra Leone, the first country to do so.
To be honest not only black American Jamaica and every South American or Caribbean countries across
If I could right now I would go too the Motherland right now.😊. Imagine a World without Them.
Without who???
This is a great opportunity 4 the original people of the planet. Unity amongst self = peace and prosperity which is always most needed amongst those who have been divided from culture stolen and enslaved by devils 2 get back 2 there original land and culture
Go play in traffic you deluded racist.
I think I'll pass but God bless whoever wants to go. 😁🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Our ancestors did not have the chance to say goodbye to their family and friends, they also had their family nucleus disconnected when they arrived in the Americas, this, the African diaspora, is the saddest and most impressive unfair story of the entire human trajectory.
How do they feel about their Seniors and Disabilities?
I think people have a misunderstanding of being "given citizenship". Its not like a Costco card where you pay $50 and you're in. You'll still have to follow the process they have which will include forms and fees, just like everywhere else.😊
Africans are Pure Hearted Love and must guard against the dirty hearted non african agents.
I think that the African countries are pointing in the right direction in it's inclusiveness of People of proven African ancestry of the African country that they mostly descended from. I'm praying for Africa to rebuild bigger and better and eventually prevail and prosper above and beyond current expectation and above standard. May Africa be blessed in every possible and impossible way. May African Americans be able to maintain dual citizenship as many of our of ancestors and current day people have helped to build America free of charge and helped to fight for America as well.
Aboriginal Indians seeking African citizenship is crazy to me.
