Hi what a great way to educate and inform us on Jamaican history. What is the song/poem you recited about black?
The Asante's are great warriors and rich in culture.. Big Love ❤ from Ghana 🇬🇭 to you guys.. 🙌
Nanny was a Fante
Watching from my country Belize, the Maroons reminds me of my culture I'm a Garifuna, we have our own clothes, food, language we dance to drums and we celebrate our ancestors n most of all we are peaceful loving caring people
It's the same people oneness
Yes the Garfuna was once called the Carib, all the same people indeed.
I too am a Belizean/ British
We are one and the same hon.
Big up Garifuna people ,we are One People!
Can all older Garifuna speaks a language dialect that's mixture of Spanish and Hebrew. any heard of of it?
To say that I didn't learn anything here, I would be lying. I first came across an small old book called "Nanny of the Maroons" during my earlier years in the 1960's at Norman Gardens All Age In Kingston. I read that book throughout and became attached to our history in Jamaica. The book dealt with what happened from Portland in the East to Accompong St.Elizabeth in the West. The buck stops when I passed that book onto my siblings because to date no one is able to explained what happened to it. Nevertheless the details of what happened in Nanny Town and the retreat to establish Moore Town still echos those events in mind. There was also the book "History of Jamaica" but that little book: Nanny Of The Maroons depicting the skirmishes of Nanny with the British Red Coats and the grouping up when her brothers and her reluctance to give into some of their conditions upon the Treaty, was forcibly what attracted me to the spirit of Nanny even though having no experience in that village settings as I did with areas of other rural villages in St.Ann where my parents are from.
Also, I like in the video when Kromanti Experience used the word "demonize" to adhere to the fight against the language and cultural experiences of the Maroon People. The reason is that many words in the Jamaican language have been replaced with so called British Imperialist flavours that omitted many of the original African words. My hope is that throughout the Maroon Settlements that remains untouched and are still used among the elders with the young. My surprise was hearing my Mother who is now in her eighties dropped a word on me such as "fufu" to mean crushed ground tubers such as yams, coco and others while watching a documentary from Ghana. Actually one of the village people there say the word and she was able to identify with it. Then I asked her why she didn't pass on such rich words to us. And her answers were people particularly those teaching English at Schools in her time would put down or classified using such words as speaking "Bad." In return I was very upset and offended on the strategies used by the Colonialist and their emissaries to ridicule what is ours. I responded to my Mother by encouraging her not to be embarrassed using any of our indigenous words. And to do so as much as she can in preference to English when in dialog and without shame.
Queen Nanny have a special place inna I heart💯. I don’t know how many of us Jamaicans really stop and think of the important part this queen played in our history and what we achieved. She was the epitome of a warrior queen. Brought fear and fyah to the oppressors. One a the great woman to eva walk this earth. Love u queen. Rest well with the rest a the ancestors 👑❤️🖤💚
A young but interested youtuber, i like her she is different from the rest, she highlights things that i'll actually have my child watching....1 love
Sending love, from Asanteman , Ghana
I love this! Rochelin you are an absolute blessing to Jamaica's UA-cam space. I learned so much from this video and felt so empowered just hearing more about Queen Nanny!
You are so welcome! Happy you like it
I believe the name Nanny was a corrupted name. It is actually Nana. Nana is how Asante and other Akan groups in Ghana call the King, chiefs and the aged. That means Nana is used for noble people and the aged
I feel like crying 😭 whenever I watch my people .
Deep love from Ghana 🇬🇭
Proud of my tribe. Maroon descendant.
This is awesome babe this is a part of Jamaican that unknown to the younger people Jamaica have so untold history
Man, I think I am a descendant of Nanny, because I am one fierce, independent, strong minded, determine, take no crap from people Jamaican woman. Love this blog, very informative..I was taught about Nanny, Paul Bogle and other national Heros when I was grown up in Jamaica.
Awesomeee!!!!!!
Greetings Opal
Queen Nanny
Love from Asante- Ghana 🇬🇭
Love the history beautiful,,. Queen nanny was a no nonsense woman i think this is what a lot of young females are missing our history continue the journey Rochielin love it,
Proud Portlander here!🇯🇲💕😂 The closet Maroon town to where I lived is Charles Town. Portland is the most beautiful parish in Jamaica!
Sis your energy is so captivating
Thanks love. Thanks for watching
Love this blog that deals with Jamaican history! True, Suriname has the largest Maroon community. Keep doing these vlogs, Rochielin as they help us to learn about our Black culture.
Yeah! Could be strange but because of my visit to Maroon Town, in 1994, I'm doing all my research about linguistics in Suriname. The connexion Jamaica- Suriname is incredibly rich, culturally and linguistically speaking.
And also Colombia.
Suriname, Sranan mie tru Lobie!
"Women are the stregnth of the black nation."
They are the strength of any nation. Without women, no life.
I know that to be true
Women are the strength period...
It's a must to see on my list maroon town
That what your openenants and those who want to control you think.Men are. Please please check all the nations and ethnicity in the world .when you see women are leading the MEN are usually suppressed.
Husband leadsMen leads primary decision maker.Never discount the woman(wife) she compliments man (husband) to make a sustain and strong community. Each roles are function differs but purpose and goals are the same for a strong family.
Very informative and great video
History was one of my favorite subjects I thoroughly enjoyed this knowledge is power
Thanks love. Thanks for watching
Rochielin looking fly.
Great informative contents.
Thank you. Thanks for watching
I love this! Jamaica has such a rich history and culture and being able to experience it and learn it through your efforts is wonderful. Thanks Rochelin🙏🏽
This channel will grow really really fast! Rochielin is simply magical! 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
My grandfather is a descendant of the Maroons. This is awesome information.
Can't wait for part two cause honestly mi neva know half a dem tings here
Good happy to share the knowledge and experiences
Please do because was waiting for part 2
Sister Rochielin! This vlog reach me on a different level. Especially that part about never giving up. I can't say enough how I appreciate this! Thank you from the belly of my soul.
You’re most welcome!!!! Thanks for watchigg
Rochelin is such a vibrant, interesting and inspiring young lady. One of the best videos I have seen. No boredom at all, which is not unusual for many I have watched. I am amazed that you find time to do such a great job with your videos while holding down a job.
I am from that heritage but knows very little. Just that my great grandfather's family settled in Brown's Town Liberty Valley and he married my great grandmother who was not a maroon. She was Black and German. Both of their backgrounds is not unusual based on the heritage of the area. Your program is certainly enlightening and thought provoking. Thanks.
Rochielin, Thanks for sharing. I appreciate all this knowledge of our rich history in Jamaica. Your hosts were gracious and full of knowledge. Young lady you were spilling the words of the song like a pro. ❤love and appreciate your videos 😚
Another great video Rochielin.
I really enjoyed watching, very informative and detailed history lessons.
Keep doing your thing. 👍🏽❤👏🏽
Thank you so much!
This is very informative. I'm from Ghana 🇬🇭 🇬🇭and hearing the Maroons are descendants of Asantes makes me so happy. It shows we are warriors indeed
I really appreciate this.. We still learning.. Blessed always beautiful lady..
Welcome to our maroon culture I hope you all enjoy the tour in Rochielin’s vlog. Bless up to my cousin for keeping the culture living @kromantiexperience. And also a big thank you to @rochielin for choosing this adventurous journey to know more about our culture. We really appreciate you @rochielin for choosing Kromanti Experience Tour.
It was definitely a great experience. Thanks for watching 😁
Mi lil Thaywani
Ok so they need to fix it in the books...queen nanny
She was a Queen before she came to Jamaica, wasn't born here. some source says she voluntarily came here to liberate her people and not as a slav
Ibrook Ajamu Palmer I don’t remember where I read it but I remember once reading that she was a Queen before being taken to Jamaica and then was captured into slavery.
Another great video! Looking forward to part two. As always amazing content Roch! ♥️🙏🏽😁
Maurice dropping words of motivation, bless up King

Cudjoe and Quao of the Maroons eventually signed a treaty with the then British Governor Edward Trelawny in 1739,
the Maroons were granted 1500 acres of land in parts of Trelawny parish and Accompong, Akan name Acheampong
in St Elizabeth in Jamaica,
In that treaty, they got from the British a certain amount of political Autonomy and economic freedoms in exchange
for peace and to return any Runaway Slaves, for which the British would pay them, it's is true that the Government of
Jamaica still allow the Maroons to maintain their traditional practices and Celebrations,
However, it's not true to say that they are fully Independent or Sovereign in Jamaica they're allowed a certain amount
of Self Governing, the Jamaican Constitution is the Supreme Law in Jamaica, and all Jamaicans Maroons and Others
must Obey that Law, they have to pay taxes, they get to vote, the Government provides Schools and Health Care for them
as well as all Jamaicans. this young Lady Rochielin puts out some informational Video's
So, according to the Treaty of Independence, their Peace and Security was/is guaranteed, if they would capture and return any and all runaway slaves. For this they would be paid, this included capturing Paul Bogle, George William Gordon, and who knows how many countless others, in return for Thirty (30) Pieces of silver? Indeed, I must be missing something, but Traitors is all that comes to my mind, and oh, BLOOD MONEY!😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
We , the rest of Jamaica, had to fight the British AND The Maroons for our Independence, that is nothing for us to praise Nanny, Cudjo or Tacky for, they are all a bunch of TRAITORS!
@@Daredevil58889 What Independence/free-dom? That queen/crown in England still owns Jamaica, through her/his representive the Govornor General who that so call elected prime minister(s) reports to. Jamaica still have a queen/king.
THE CREATOR BLESS
Cudjoe and Quao are Fante names. They are actually from Kromantin in Central region of Ghana
@@Daredevil58889 would you believe there are black Americans working in the prison industry as guards. I couldn't do it. They also have blacks all over the world working for white corporate America, knowing those same corporations polluting the waters and black people communities.
QueenNanny refused to make any treaty with the British. It was said when they even offer her to sit she refused their chair. Rather she sat on the back of one of her shoulders who offered his back for a stool.
Sitting through these adds so Rochielin can get her money ❤️❤️
Amen,thank you Jesus for candace
I love History and I appreciate this vlog so much!
Thanks for watching hun
Watched this video and part two with my family. We loved it! Especially as my Grandma was a Maroon from St Thomas. Excellent presentation, look forward to watching many more 💯👏🏾👍🏽😘🙏🏾
Maurice you are right,Maroons are all descendants of the great Asante kingdom in Ghana, their way of living, food and language are the same, let's come together black people in the world we are all brothers and sisters love you all from the states.
Rochielin thanks alot for the info about the maroon and lady nanny looks good in blue my favorite color bless up yourself
Let's go! Let's go! Let's go! Let's go! Let's go!💃🏾🤗
Let’s goooooo!
Baby girl you are Jamaica’s numbers 1 journalist. Keep up the great work.
I love this....i wish many people as in we "young jamaican" could understand our real culture and the greatness of our nature and the linkage we as humans have towards it...I believe as he said women's are more powerful than what they think....we should all take time to learn our history and what we really are (humans)....
Absolutely love this video!!!!! You are a breath of fresh air on UA-cam!! Can’t wait for our family to come back to JA and set up a tour of Mooretown and Nanny Falls (hopefully you can join us too!)
Good morning mi fren. Nice vlog, you are so impressive and remarkable. Cont reaching for your greatest potentials
Rochielin I truly do appreciate your videos they are really educational. I left Jamaican from I was 11 years old I was really sheltered by my grandmother so, I didn't really got the opportunity to learn much about my country. Over the years I've learned bits by bits.
This sound like the maroons would run Jamaica better than Andrew because if a white angel is stepping on a black man neck and the governor general wear it that a big disgrace 💔💔💔💔my grandparents are maroons am so proud 💯💯💯💯👍
o maroons were stepping on our necks too
Maroons sold us back to Slavery!
Yes that is right big up yu self mi maroon fren, it's obvious this indepence ting is an illusion to make us think that we are free but the governor repesent the queen a england and wears a badge that glorifies our oppressors and demonize the oppressed then we are still not free, The Maroons would a do a betta job wid di country fi true!
@@zibiah6604 blessing my sister princess nuff respect and love ❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏👑
