How are Black migrants treated across North Africa? | Inside Story

- Опубліковано 25 лют 2023
- Tunisia's president Kais Saied is under fire once again, after he made comments about Black African migrants.
He said, there is a plot to replace Tunisia's Arab and Islamic identity by bringing people from other countries to the region.
Many have strongly condemned the comments as racist and xenophobic.
Thousands of African migrants travel through Tunisia and other North African countries on their way to attempt the dangerous crossing to Europe.
So, how are they treated in those countries?

Tunisians should also stop migrating to other countries if they feel so entitled
there is a pretty big difference between legal and illegal migration
@@YA-kr4fr there are lots of illegal Morocco people living in Europe
Stop talking bullshit pls
@@YA-kr4fr a lot of Tunisian immigrants are illegal
@@YA-kr4fr LOL not all migrations by the tunisians are legal you know that right?
It is not just an immigration issue. It is a whole history that has been full of hatred and slavery and contempt towards Black Africans in North Africa. We need to reckon with that history and face our past sins and confront and fight against racism with all the means we have.
If you want to point your foreigners hand point your foreigners to your self
@@tonyjackson-cb1wl Hmm! I wonder if the woman on the video would think the same, if instead of trying to come to Europe all those thousands Sub Sahara immigrant decide to stay in Tunisia instead, somehow I don't think so.
@@tonyjackson-cb1wl what are you saying 🤔
@@willoville I was not talking about our ancestors it's wer weird I assume
You hit the Nail Directly on the Head !
Shalom my brother 🦾
The African Union needs to do more than just condemn Tunisia and Morocco as well as Lybia. Those countries have kicked out and mistreated black people since their arrival. African Union needs to kick them out.
Bullshit morocco treats african immigrants better than most of the other african countries. What is morocco doing them you expert for morocco, you have not even watched the whole story were they say morocco is one the first on the Continent to give benefits for immigrant from other african countries, and they cant benefit even their neediest own people. Secondly morocco is after south africa the biggest investor in africa and the biggest in West-nort- and central africa. Morocco has done for whole Continent a lot. If you want to kick someone then start with ethiopia for killing tigray and south africa for hunting immigrants or with Eritrea for their slavery with other africans. So stop your wrong hate speeches bc then you are not better than saeed. You dont know anything about morocco or tunisa
The African Union is a toothless dog.
White Christian Europe is responsible for your problems not North Africa. Europe is responsible for your poverty and misery.
what is happening in Lybia is FAR worse ...
🤣🤣🤣🤣
He is feeling exactly what France feels about Tunisians! Also, he said "Africans"..what does he think he is?
Exactly. He must think he is European which is a joke. He is the laughing stock of the world.
He said sub saharan.
France has a bigger issue with sub saharans then with tunisians.
There r more sub Saharan than Tunisia and Tunisian don't live in France illegal
@@canelo1728 do they though?
I am very proud of those Tunisians who rejected this president’s hate speech.
Those are traitors who don't follow their president's worry about danger to native Tunisian population due to these African migrants mostly young single men aa well. Ao double danger in this
They are traitors who will be destroyed by the real Tunisians, who back the president
@@Jamescleaverly Hate speech has no place in Islam.
How about you!!
How are you treating somali Bantu 😅😅
@@somaliking9437 You do not know me how I treat Somali Bantu, therefore think before you make statements like that. I fight all discriminations especially in my society.
I am proud of my brothers and sisters of Tunisia 🇹🇳❤️❤️❤️❤️

Now wait till it spreads , you’d see big hate towards Tunisians.. soon just wait . Don’t cry then 😊

People saying North Africa subsaharian you all fell to the big game of the powerful men to divide us since ever. I wanna remember that Ghaddafi had the plan to unify Africa he’s North African been killed USA and France told him to leave his own country to surrender.
I’m Tunisian now living in Europe among my best friends I call them brothers are 3 Maroccans and 1 Nigerian.
Said that It’s funny how journals news plays us all fool. I’m Tunisian never hated nobody. Black people are in our country and if you see my father he’s more black than an subsaharian. Look Europe west has always played with our stupidity destabilise and ruled us all exploiting our lands and people. Now what is going on is that to destabilise a country like Tunisia France has been doing it all with our past leader corrupted. I bet that all real Africans says that they’re leaders are corrupted what they do? They do deals with Europe especially France to sell everything cheap to become reach out of their people work.
I understand my Moroccan brothers kind mad with the president and started attack him because of the Algerian politician he called… I see Kais Said trying to make us all brothers stop diving us.
Kais Said is a man of law following the laws. We have a constitution we are a Country with borders illegal immigrants should be anywhere around the world for the best of the Country and the best of themselves since living in very bad conditions…
Wake up don’t play west and Europe game. African we all brothers. I repeat he said no to illegal immigrants. Welcome all ethnicity.
I don't blame them, because our own black people from South Africa are doing the same thing to their fellow black Africans, how much more Tunisia
@15:30 It's interesting that in France it is completely fine to say racist things like Black ppl aren't welcome, and yet saying anything Anti-Jewish is completely illegal and you can be sent to prison for it.
Bro its france.. this is normal
Yes because since world war II when French government and people sent jews to be killed in Poland ect ... French people have to 'over défend' zionists ... If you are Pro Palestinian in France you are in trouble !
far more blacks africans in the world than jews, especially 'zionist' jews, but, hey, 'only democracy in the me'..
It's illegal in France. Racisim is only acceptable in Africa.
@@said00743you people are weak that's what it means,,
If you can target some big not anyone you want your scary
I am with all Tunisians that stand up against hate.
The title of the Video aims north africa but then they are only talking about morocco and tunisia. Ive heard stories about algeria of misstreating immigrants as slaves and in libya of torturing them .
Tunisia may be gentler on them. As you say Morocco can be harsh. But Libya has lots of enslavement too.
I did hear about human trafficking, but it was prostitution of African women, and the perpetrators were themselves sub-Saharan, it was not a question of making black people work on cotton fields
No we have Black people they can't Be Bad in Algeria our Mentality is Defferent from Tunisians And Moroccans
@@akrem1967 that's the biggest lie algerians are the most racist in north africa after libya your military literaly dropped african immigrants in the middle of the desert and left them to die but luckily they entered morocco and were saved
It was just a few days ago when Africans were expressing support for the African Union’s decision to expel the Israeli envoy from the AU summit. Africans were expressing solidarity with Palestinians and Arab countries. I commented that this position was such a misguided position to take. I also mentioned that the Arab regimes in the Sahara desert region (Tunisia, Algeria, Libya, Mauritania, Egypt, and Morocco) have done to black people more than Israel could do in 1,000 years. I spoke about how black Tunisians (indigenous people, not immigrants) endure all kinds of racism and how they are frequently called the Tunisian version of the n-word (kahlooch). I also mentioned that I saw a few years ago a report stating that black people are stoned in some areas and live in complete marginalization.
I also mentioned how blacks make up 70% of Mauritania's population, but Mauritania has only had ONE black president who remained in power as an acting president for 112 days throughout the entire history of that nation (62 years since independence in 1962). Just one black president who was put in power by a guy who did a coup shortly before that, who then took back the presidency after he won in a sham election. I also mentioned that in 1989, the Mauritanian regime expelled nearly 100,000 black Mauritanians to neighboring countries. It is worth noting that the vast majority of these people have not returned. Worst of all, slavery STILL continues to exist in that country and some reports mention that up to 600,000 black Mauritanians live in slavery.
In 2017, Algerian Prime Minister, Ahmed Ouyahia, made anti-black statements. There is also an Egyptian diplomat who made similar statements during a Nairobi conference several years ago. You can search in Google. Today, the Tunisian president is doing the same!! I believe it's time to expel these regimes in the Sahara desert region from the African Union.
I love my country Nigeria because there's no place like home. 👍 👍 Black people are not loved by the rest of the world.

@@soshesays2444 well yeah
He has forgotten that Arabs did not originally come from the African continent. Africans tolerated them to migrate and settle there.
Tolerate LoL 😂, you couldn't even cross the Sahara desert when the Arabs could cross it any time.
You guys didn't know that Arabs existed until the brought Islam to you.
@@majuscule8883 Not you but other Africans did. Also are u Christian? Because Europe brought that to you.

How very Israeli of him to say. I'm proud of Tunisians who aren't letting him getting away with lies and racist rhetoric.
This "Israeli thing" seems all too common on the Arab street. But good for you, being proud of all 50 protesters who came out.
Preserving your race and identity isn’t racist
@Max Z I am proud of them, actually, number notwithstanding.
You ppl are racist they say we should kill white Africans , your afrocentrics is to blame
Your comment speaks for your face(:
I just feel pity for black Tunisians who look like people from sub saharan Africa. Anyway black people are living in Africa millions of years ago before Arabs migrated from the middle East into the continent of Africa. Anyway this statement from the president doesn't respond to the majority of Tunisians. At least that is what I believe.
Tunisians are natives.
Tunisians are only Arabs culturally.
@@olajong2315 iam sure he dont understand your post or is unwilling to accept the facts.
Berber are natives but also other poeple settled in Tunisia and mixed with the native Berber population, Phoenicians, Roman settlers during Romes rule, germanic Vandals, arabs dont forget the influence of the Slave trade (subsaharan and "kaucasian" slaves)
@@Sturminfantrist the slave trade had nothing to do with Tunisian you people only deny but deep down you are migrant from Arabia not blacks Kemets

Seems like the immigration issue is worldwide. It’s sad to me that people have to leave their country for a better life. How do we help these countries do well, so people don’t have to leave?

It's always blacks involved, go back home
Ya , they will ruin demographics of Europe n North Africa by intermixing
Those ppl are welcomed as soon are beginning their racism toward the host country that's where the hospitality ends .
(how do we) u and who?????
As long as our spiritual artifact are in their museum it will draw us close. They should just return the stolen stuff back
Which is the very land in Tunisia
As long as you also take back your fellow African
You mean the british?
I love people of Tunisia for categorically stating it clear that their country is an African country and any African should live anywhere in the continent.
Let everyone know that features are acquired thanks to the climate, not lineage. All the inhabitants of Africa have the same genetic traits, but they differ in chromosomes. For everyone who reads my comment, do a search and make sure for yourself. The European man is the one who enslaved the blacks, but the inhabitants of North Africa should not deny their lineage because of the different features caused by the climate.
Those are just the woke feminist activists...most Tunisians agree with the president
@@davidwong6515 are you Tunisian?
Well, you can love them but you can't force them to love you with your black skin! We have always loved Europeans but what do we get in return?

Nothing....as usual.
Bro it’s North African. It’s a Tunisian thing for now. In fact Morocco has given legal documents and benefits to the Sun Saharan Africans

We Black Africans must remove north Africa out of the African Free trade agreement exceptions for maybe Algeria. majority of them don't consider themselves one of us so we can't let them take advantage of our underdevelopment while they are still blatantly racist towards our brethrens
You need to blame the ones who are really responsible for your problems not North African . And by the way Algeria is treating the migrants worst than Morocco. The Algerian government throw migrants on it’s borders with Morocco and Tunisia . Algerians are the worst .
@@HmpoeTd where in my comment did I blame anyone for our problems?
@@alhagiekah4020
Africans in Morocco are treated a lot better than any other country in North Africa
Nope! All of us Africans should stick together because separate ourselves from our own would result in peoples from other continent coming in and taking pieces of our lands and resources.
what about countries that do similar thing like Botswana, Namibia, Ghana, Ethiopia and south africa? hypocrite ....
To be honest nothing surprises me anymore. As a sub saharan african I don't hate North Africans just because their leader said something awful. Brothers let's get involved in political leadership from the grassroots and eventually take over leadership of our countries and make it better.
Many Subsaharan Africans hate other groups. If tens of thousands of Arabs were migrating to your country illegally, many would call for them to be killed.
People from different nationalities will always breed and mix no matter what always have always will.
You said nothing.. what put them their In the first place is murder killing 99.9 percent of all the Blacks in the magrib,, they can't hide anymore Internet is here to expose everything....
To be fair. South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Haiti thought the same thing but it never works out because of the violence, rapes, filth, over regulations, and looting by not only the regular black citizens, but the black leaders too. You gotta understand, that most of your population only vote for people who are bigots and pander to the base who refuse to look into their own actions as to why nobody wants them around. It's not racism. It's your citizens's behavior. Don't like rape, racism because the rapists are not the white south Africans, don't like car jacking? Racism because it's not the white people car jacking, don't like infant rape, racism........we can do this all day
Arab slave trade is as old as 700 AD.
European slave trade came later.
Arabs occupied African land treated natives as slaves.
first part is true second is fase the amazigh people were there well before arabs (about 10 000 years) north africans are amazigh who adopted arab culture
@@YA-kr4fr no one adopted, they were persecuted & forced.
@@surojeetchatterjee who are you to say so
They weren't forced and even now we aren't forced either ...
European began in the trade in the last 1580 s and 1590 s and ended it in 1830 s and by then Arab had been in the trade 1000 years
@@rouma910 We know the history that's why we can say.
You have countries with rules. Those people just migrate into those countries without asking anyone. They dont ask the government, they dont ask the people, they just come. And then think that everybody will be fine with it. Try to go into Japan or China or Great Brittain illegally. You cant just come into a country without permission and then act like you did nothing wrong.
They are being attacked and beaten this is out of racism not illegal immigrants!!! You people are the most racist and then go to other countries and beg them not to be racist to you! Smh!!!
They're coming into Britain illegally 😮.
We as black people should as well start discriminating these north African countries instead of feeling victimized and the AU should react beyond just condemning
What u gonna do yall still pick cottons stfu now
Your a real one 💯👍🏿
Morocco gave legal status to many illegal migrants, and Moroccans are very generous towards them. Way to go spreading hate my man.
Discriminate everyone else

Al Jazeera calling blacks migrants in Tunisia is so stupid. Tunisia is in Africa not in middle East or Asia

The best advice is the change you news source: UA-cam is a platform that allows people to broadcast. and there are tons tons of footage of Africa living its best life.
- Remember when everyone had covid; and Africa did not care.
Look and Watch "Wode Maya" videos

Not desperation rather laziness

@@okuomose1 No blacks,most were sold to the Roman slave Market by the Hannibal of Carthage and his ancestors.
As how they are treated the Black beings are treated everywhere else, in other words, with contempt. A dictator in Sub Saharan Africa who set himself as a source of suffering and pain to people isn't different from those frustrated souls in North Africa and elsewhere to whom a Black being equate to contempt.
When in Sub Saharan Africa most of those who decide to have no practical idea of the challenges face by people outside the perimeters, they are more concerned with the voice on international stage, seats at International Institutions, etc than the internal atmosphere that shapes hope, self-esteem, pride, in a genesis of well-being and human fulfilment. An atmosphere that led people to understand that when they went to others' houses, they honor the houses just like the houses honor them by welcoming them, therefore they shouldn't be desperate to put their feet everywhere. We have a sacred obligation not to accept to be treated with contempt nor to treat others with contempt, because no one is above God who has created us. This man in Tunisia must understand that we are not his creatures.
OUR RULRSHIP will soon take hold on this plant, and the Arab presence on our continent has to and will be addressed--they are occupiers and they will all be dealt with--they show their ugly side whenever they get the chance to--they need to be reminded that they are occupiers of our land and resources

Where do blacks treat other ethnicities well, where they are the majority?
There are some points in regards to this:
1. Ironically it appears that there has been an adoption of the European Great Replacement ideology. The same ideology which, ironically, asserts that both Arabs and Africans are plotting targeted demographic replacements of white Europeans!
2. The roots of this stem from the overthrow of Gaddafi as:
- many sub-Saharan Africans (and othrt North Africans, Bengalis and others) were working there and then after the fall of Gaddafi they fled to Europe via Italy and Greece or were detained in Libya.
- Gangs extorted money from sub-Saharan Africans with the claim to take them to Europe, i.e. people trafficking. Yet only really can get them as far as North Africa.
The EU then gave Libya a vast amount of money to stem the tide of people trafficking from Africa, by setting up processing centres to detain and then send back illegal immigrants from sub-Saharan Africa who had been people trafficked. It appears that some of these individuals may have reached Tunisia and Morocco.
3. The discourse in Morocco is, not sure about Tunis, that Algeria are also allowing illegal immigrants to get into Morocco via Algerian and Moroccon shared borders. Not sure if this is what Tunisia is assering with its talk of a 'conspiracy'.
4. In Morocco, the state granted national ID cards to those sub-Saharan African people who are actually working honestly. These migrants hail from countries in West Africa which are unstable at present: Mali, Burkina Faso and Ivory Coast largely. A few of the sub-Saharan Africans in Morocco I have heard have been involved in criminality, possibly due to the conditions they have found themselves in- yet this doesn't justify them getting involved in criminality. This just seves to further negative perceptions about sub-Saharan Africa.
5. These migrants may aim to get to Europe, not to stay in North Africa. However, it has been surprising to see some ignorant Moroccans and North Africans claim that the migrants are 'taking over the country' (!?) This is the ideology of Brexit and Great Replacement. As if these migrants are some sort of military force! This is paranoia, exaggeration and the ideology of hatred.
6. Tunisia and elsewhere should not get it twisted. Most sub-Saharan Africans are happy in their countries and not risking their lives in North Africa. These migrants are just a very small number of people from about five core countries from West Africa.
7. Where possible and relevant, such as in the case of criminality, those individuals should be returned to their countries of origin.
8. In terms of Tunis, then one shouldn't be too surprised as it was not that long ago when one of their former leaders said "the hijab is not from our culture". It appears they are still trying to define precisely what their identity is after decades of extremist secularism.
9. All of this talk about "our identity, our culture", where is it when some North African countries are open for business to Europeans and Westerners for immorality and filth?! Where is "our identity, our culture" when they still genuflect before French elites? Also despite such pompous claims about "our culture, our identity" North Africa underneath is quite divided - as the fall of Gaddafi revealed and the current political situation at present with three different governments! Many of the Amazigh nationalists in Algeria, Morocco, Tunis and Libya are not even Muslim and regard Islam also as a "foreign import, imposed on us against our will". Then there are different Arubi tribes some of whom dislike each other and then the Sahrawi who have a culture more like that of Mauritania. In Tamanrasset in South Algeria the people are black. So the politicians are playing a dangerous nationalist game to demonstrate that they are 'defending the heritage and identity' of the country.
10. There should be coordination and cooperation with the African Union to resolve this issue.
11. There is ignorance in North Africa among the average person about the history of their countries pre-colonialism. This is only really known by expert and specialist historians. It is not taught in schools. Tunisia was a quite racist country. It has a black indigenous population, comprised of black Berber groups (Haratin) and also those descended from trans-Saharan slavery which was active in Tunisia. There are at the bottom of the Social strata in Tunisia. Though now there is at least some action to address this.
Moreover, they talk about "our culture, our identity" when historically North African states raided and attacked West African Muslim empires, as occurred with the fall of the Songhai Empire. While it was black Moroccan soldiers who were at one point forcibly conscripted into the armies of Ismail bin Sharif in the 17th and early 18th centuries.
Also, some of the North African rulers of the 16th century has African mothers! So despite any claims by a few thankfully minority voices in North Africa - history cannot be changed. See Chouki El Hamel's book Black Morocco for more.
Thank you!

They are women thugs these sub Saharan single young men coming in heaps on illegal boats through Libya n other merky routes operated by people smugglers aiding such illegal immigration into north Africa n European main land via Mediterranean sea n must be stopped and banned immediately by EU and North African states if they wanna save native Europe and North Africa from these sub Saharan single young men loading in these illegal boats via Mediterranean routes invading our territory of Europe n north African countries including Tunisia. This is acute danger to demographics to north African and European nations n must be halted soon with their deportations back to main land Africa

@@citizencoy4393 you are misplaced , Chinese 1.4 billion n east Asians , Filipinos 100 mil, Indonesians 270 million Japanese 130 million, Koreans 60 million population is 2 billion plus already, add 500 million of EU, Egypt 100 mil , morocco 30 million, Algeria 40 million , Iraq 44 mil , Iran 70 mil , syria 15 mil, Israel 8 and Palestine 5, lebanon 6, Jordan 10, Afghanistan 30, Uzbekistan 25, Kazakhstan 20, Kyrgyzstan 5, Tajikistan 5, Turkmenistan 5, Armenia 3 , Georgia 5, white US 190 mil, latino/ hispanics fair 50 mil , Brazil white 90 mil, Argentina 30, Columbia 20, Mexico mostly are latino who are fair 100 mil atleast, Uruguay Paraguay 5 mil both. You total all these , which come to my mind i am aware of. Add 2 billion east Asians to it. And also add atleast 10% of 750 mil Indian men who are fair as a minimum estimate and which includes me as well. And black population is 1.5 billion in Africa , 100 mil Brazil, 60 mil US, Carribbean 60 mil , Indian say 70% or 1 billion and another 50 million spread in Latin America, Europe etc including mixed. So black population is 2 billion at Max totalling all these rough estimates as per my reading, 1 bil Indian brown or dark brown people excluding me and rest 20-30% of its 1.4 bil. So 2 billion black and 1 bil dark n medium brown of India. Out of total 7 billion world population. So it's less than half black and dark to medium brown totals 3 billion at Max.
We will repossess the entire African continent and beyond my bantu brothers and sisters; the pendulum of power is swaying back to our side.

lol, and then you say others are racist.
@WIJZIG NAAM VO how is that racist?
I am not black by blood. But I consider myself as fully African, from Mauritius.
You are saying that out of emotion and anger ,but in reality that will never happen .
Absolutely 💯👍🏿👍🏾😄.
This reporter is hypocrite did I hear you say Morocco gave legal status and allowance to migrants. What the outcome of those migrants who were punished to death in Morocco for attempting to cross NADOR TO MELILA.
We all know nador is in Africa and we'll saw what happened on that day.
You can't just come in someone else country and force entry elsewhere carrying arms, of course we'll have to act. There's one thing in Morocco that we NEVER tolerate: violence (and terrorism).We have agreements with Europe as well, don't forget that, we can't let a whole batch of thousands of people attack Melilla (under spanish rule) by force.
Also these dudes were carrying weapons and we had MOROCCAN policemen and "gendarmes" DEAD because they were trying to push them back, they were hacked and dead a cruel death, aren't they people as well or maybe they're not "black enough" for your taste!?
They fear black Africans could take their ladies.

I'm happy to read your comment, we have a common continent and a common destiny.
Moroccan police massacred 23 black migrants in Ceuta, a Spanish city landlocked in Morocco and the gateway to Europe last June, Moroccans have stabbed black migrants to death in Tangier in recent years, you are not aware ?
Moroccan initiative is very important to stop illegal immigration even though Tunisia 🇹🇳 and most African countries have chosen silent and discrimination against the weak and helpless African immigrants, African leaders should stop pointing fingers and solve their problems 😀 😉
You're behind. Citizens of Botswana and Namibia are now traveling freely between each other's countries without passports.
The Nummer of people crossing tunisia to reach europe and the ones aiming southern africa is very different. Travelling without passports between african countries is the first time i hear that
@@said00743 yeah king we in the future here in southern africa
Unfortunately, Tunisia doesn't have the resources to support these extra people from sub-Saharan Africa, similar to the situation we are experiencing here in the UK with regards migrants arriving illegally from France in dinghies. However, there are those (just like those who report for Aljazeera) who think that open borders are fine and actually set no limits to the amount of migrants that a country can accept whatever the economic difficulties a country faces or however impractical taking extra migrants might be.
As someone who has lived a few years in Tangier in Morocco, I have seen the tensions between Arabs and Africans firsthand. The Tunisian President may have been a bit ill judged in his statements, but he is not wrong to suggest that sizeable numbers of foreign migrants arriving in Tunisia will ultimately change the essential character of his country. I wish certain individuals in the media would stop looking at this issue so emotionally and consider the practical side of letting vast numbers of migrants into a country that is internally suffering from poverty, unemployment and other socio economic problems.
The Tunisian president really needs to apology to the West African migrants in March of 2023❤❤❤
no he don't
@@isawwhatthedoghasdone2549 yes he need
Really good reviews from the two North African brother and sister. It's so positive to hear the ladys review. How proud she is of the African heritage. Thank you.
When will we learn? Many of these brothers have better lives back home, but because their minds are conditioned, they must travel at all cost.
They will do menial jobs they won't do back home, and they allow everyone to look down on us.
Village I did not know many of these brothers had better lives back home until I started seeing some African migrants on UA-cam. We blacks born in the Americas know what the deal really is and that is what is so dame sickening to see these bastards over here taking advantage and getting over on our African brothers. We know how them stay and when we try to tell our African family what it is they don't want to listen. If you have a good job in Africa, stay home because when you get over here your new and PERMANENT OCCUPATION will be toilet cleaner!
@@edwardcarrier4816 the OP is lying, Africans that are comfortable do not cross the channel to get to Europe, they get a Visa and fly in an Aeroplane. Anyone taking the risk to cross the channel is definitely desperate and fleeing adversity.
@@littleone6217 I would agree with that. But I have also met plenty of people from Africa and other parts of the world who have come here only to find out what any native could have told them. Which means they are getting taken for a ride. Those ones who come illegally please tell them to stop believing in tv lies. They will end up on the streets, in the drug game or prostitution. That is if they don't end up in a detention camp for years or killed by the far right.
I wonder if they make enough money doing menial jobs so that they can at least send money back home ? When you see the rents and cost of living in London. How could you send 200£ a month ?
Just asking
Boycott Tunisia! Say No to racism!
People like to look cool and tolerant, when they actually not. Truth of the matter is African despise each other. At least this dude is honest about it.
How can a invader complain about the natives ??????
I am not a Moroccan but Moroccans are nice people and they are very welcoming
Thanks sister, I really don't get why these dudes from Aljazeera are putting the whole area in the same basket, we never had such political speech, not ONCE in our history. What the heck...
Do the morocon women open their legs for you?
say their specific countries without generalizing
As long as you accept such behaviors and vilifications the more it will go on. Please take action and show them that the African people are strong and cannot be bullied and made to look less than human. Peace!
Black African people been racist in Africa unbelievable 😢
No rasicm. Would you wanna 100 million egyptian immigrant in somali?
I'm an African , a proud one at that and he should be ashamed of himself, we alow you to steal our land and we have no right to travel into it?
They should be grayeful that Africans are not violent people or we would have by now kicked them out by force. What a shame .
He should be removed from the AU.
If they don't want African crossing to Europe then Europe should stop destroying our lands in Africa and return the land stolen from Africans by war and force .
Really bro? Whats happening In repúblic of Congo and other countries ? Do you know ? When things go wrong in África, EU sends help everytime. Right know theres about 300 (comandos special forces) fighting rebels in Congo. Tell me which country of África is there helping them NO ONE. I had myself my comrades from my previous unity fighting In África. And even protecting the countries against rebels they help the communities. The problem is your government who let foreign companies explore your resources Specially China
its not your land end of.
Wow, i am very proud of Tunisia people. The world is really changing.
Tunisia itself is an African country only difference is skin colour. It's good to see that there's good people in Tunisia
It’s not just skin colour but cultural and religious norms and etiquette. That’s like saying, the whole Asian continent are the same, so there would be free people movement across borders. Even in the West Africa, there are tribal differences in appearances and culture etc. Somalian, don’t mix with many other African regions right?
@@HomeTravelGardenInspoAfrica belongs to all Africans. Those with different cultures are foreigners and invaders.
Watching from the Uk 🇬🇧
I was going to say some vile stuff but…. seeing the Tunisians come out in solidarity against his racist comments. I applaud 👏 👏👏the Tunisian people for seeing through his deflection to cause chaos, instead of focusing on the issues the country is facing
you don't look like someone from the uk , you are a fake .
The time has come for African unity, to abandon this president of Tunisia. It is putting the people of Tunisia and its sovereignty and the ideas of a united Africa in a bad light. We hope that the opposition parties will put this president out of government. Because we believe that the people of Tunisia are proud, hardworking and humble Africans. And we must not let it be sullied by a mediocre president with no vision.
Thanks for writing.
Bravo les tunisiens sont un peuple de gens éduqués , c'est bien de montrer que votre président n'arrive pas a votre cheville ..

U sound stupid they gonna be rushed out by the Africans n Russians if the African tell them to leave like France they always can go back to India were they belong y'all jus squatters on African culture n y'all could never be the ancient ppl of north africans
If Tunisia an Arab country. Why is she part of African Union!
You can be at two unions at the same time
Africans should go black and build their country. Africans has lovely countries, and full of resources. Enough of the maltreatment. Africans should start holding their leaders accountable
There have been questions pertaining to the so-called North Africans as to why they are physically and culturally different from the rest of the African continent.
Actually, the answer is quite simple.
The population that is presently purported as North African is in fact not African, meaning that their point of origin does not lie on the African continent.
They are instead a migrant interloper population from eurasia and europe which explains why they are distinctly different from true African populations.
"The origin and history of the population of North Africa are different from the rest of the continent and are more similar to the demographic history of regions outside outside Africa: the Middle East, Europe or Asia. Paleontological remains exist that prove the existence of humans in the region more than 300,000 years ago. In any case, previous genetic studies had shown that current populations of North Africa originated as a Back to Africa Process, that is recent migrations from the Middle East that populated northern Africa."

reason why we have a pin number and e passport. we just need to weed out those who are there illegally
@@mindread2231 they are also getting it
Come on,arent kenyans migrating to countries like Rwanda and S Sudan? The demography of kenya is getting complex at present due to cross countries migration,which isnt a threat to the nation. The real threat to Kenya is excurbating poverty and has nothing to do with migrants. Migrants whether being somalis,ugandans,congolese,burundis have contributed a lot to Kenya society and still do.
First of all it's not your ancestors who decided now you are Kenyan but it's the colonizers who came from Europe and decided for you... Africans should move freely to the own continent
It is a smug statement of a worse kind I have ever heard of, particularly for the fact that it is said by an African. It is irrelevant with the context of this matter. Kingsman, I think it goes without saying that you should be shocked and be sympathetic, at first, of the situation of your Africans brothers and sisters as they are being treated unkindly on Africans soil.

Ethnic Tunisians are closer to Mediterranean basin peoples than sun Saharan Africans. The Sahara has been a formidable geographic separator.
The TRUE indigenous peoples of North Africa were BLACK. Cave paintings show black people inhabited that land. The non black people there now are migrants and COLONIZERS themselves not indigenously African. There are Black populations all over North Africa. I've seen them there myself.
