As a Brazilian and South American we often complain about seeing brazil through the eyes of the US. As the US is this dominant, belic, cultural force all around the globe that used its influence down here..because of that we are sometimes skeptical. But having watched your videos - down to earth, everyday people who are truly connecting with our culture and actually seeing how much of deep heritage and strugle we have it makes me appreciate the WORK and JOY thta you are putting into these videos. So i appreciate you. Seeing it through your eyes actually makes me feel even more.proud. thank you and hope you keep going! ❤

@@redscorpion1 I don't know about that but I ...overstand what you are saying. Up north we haven't gone looking for our heritage but our hearts and souls have began defining a new era and etching out our own destiny. The ancestors are with us in our DNA our essence our very souls even if we don't know their names or customs.
@@TheYarbros a capoeira é uma arte marcial criada por africanos e filhos de africanos Poucos afrodescendentes sabem disso, até no continente africano não se pratica capoeira pois os colonos tiraram toda capacidade do negro de acreditar que eles eram capazes de criar algo Por um milagre essas culturas esquecidas ficaram na bahia para mostrar a população negra que vocês não vieram do nada e sim de uma cultura rica de Reis e rainhas que aos poucos estão sendo resgatadas
I'm thrilled you guys caught Olo Dum So happy they are still going strong. I saw them in the Pelourinho in the late 1990s when I was an anthropologist in Brazil. You two are doing an amazing job representing the culture and vibe of Brazil. You were made for this
Thank you!!! I cannot imagine the theories and truths you found here....there are so many different and fascinating avenues of culture, development and behaviors here. I am sure an anthropologist would be like a kid in a candy store. Thanks for watching our attempts of documenting what we are seeing.
Hey karina, I found your story super interesting… honestly, I never had a contact with an anthropologist, but I am intrigued. Do you have any notes, published work, or maybe, a blog… I would love to have a view from your side. Thankss
@@TheYarbros Yes !Now, you just have to know the Candomblé's way of seen things. Got have your "Jogo de Búzios" (Cast cowrie shells) and get to know your Orixá . Axé for you two!!!
@@alfredogama4957Very true. The experience will leave him deeply touched and never the same again. I have known that kind of love that enlightens the intellect and awakens the soul.
I appreciate you guys trying to go deeper on our culture! Salvador is historically unique.. As Brazilians, we have our struggles... Some of us try to address them and make real changes.... If you want to visit deeper inland, I'd suggest Belo Horizonte and the surroundings... Also, it seems like you are catching up on Portuguese... Learning and understanding it would give you guys access to maybe some other 95%, 98% of our culture, Impossible to be reached in English
Thanks. We don't have enough time here to adequately learn Portuguese so we are bridging the gap with friends. We've been able to meet enough local people to help us along the way.
Congratulations to everyone in this video. The Brazilian guy speaking English so proud of his family and his history. I SAW OLODUM in 2002, THE BEAT TOUCH OUR HEARTS. I need to go back there!! ❤
i dont understand why you dont have that many suscribers, your context is always so informative and good, and your videos are amzing. people suscribeeee
Thanks for showing this such rich culture to the world! My roots are mainly from Bahia! Bahia is the birthplace of Brazil as much as Massachusetts in in the US. That’s why I love Mass so much either!
Incredible video! I am planning my incoming trip to Brazil in September. Your videos are coming in at the best time, and so much information! Thank you for your channel!
Thank You Thank You very much for sharing the videos. I am Sudanese/Black Bahraini who was in Salvador Bahia on my last trip on a vacation 3 months ago. Curently I am learning portoguese and will continue studying on my next trip in Barra. Honestly, I didn't know all what you have shown existed, but on my next trip I will make it a daily habbit to visit pelourinho on a daily and talk to all those folks that look like me. Big Ups!!! Note: You do look like Akbar "Big Bang Boogie" Album.✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿🤜🏿🤛🏿
I will have to look Akbar up this is the 3rd time someone has said that to me lol. Salvador is a wonderful place we also hope to return with a better grip on our Portuguese skills so we can navigate the city better. People are very willing to help and conversate here.
You will be treated like family because you are. We communicate easier with our brothers who speak Portuguese in Africa, but all Africans are part of our family. I have great friends from Ghana, Kenya, Uganda, Nigeria, etc. 😊
Thank you. This was amazing! So so educational and for many, eye opening. The struggle is real and is happening throughout the Black world. We are not alone here in the Snakes. However, we must unite to create our New World.
Yeah, it's ugly for us in most places we also create our own space in these places and the space grows to become a dominant culture. Very interesting effect.
@@TheYarbros Brother, you and sis are doing a great work with this type of exposure. Peace be upon you both and may the ancestors continue leading you.
I believe with the internet, Africans will eventually be able to rise up, at least in places and with newer generations as they begin to learn without the prejudices of folks that preceded them. The world will benefit tremendously from the wisdom, love, and beautiful talents our African family has to offer.
What a cool video!The streets of Salvador are filled with joy when Afro percussion groups play their musical instruments. You could easily be mistaken for members of Olodum.
It’s been easy to meet people here so we appreciate every chance we get to share their stories. And yes about that algorithm! It’s pushing us there quick!
It is very satisfying for me as a Brazilian, to see you enjoy and live our culture. I have watched your videos in Snta Catarina, Rio Grande do Sul, Sao Paulo (my city) and it is amazing the way you describe things so spontaneosusly and unbiased. Keep up the excelent job!!!! Congratulations!
I've to to Porto Seguro and Arraial D'Ajuda snd have also seen Olodum. There is something in the blood when I listen to the drums of Olodum, Timbalada, and the songs played during religious rituals, I experience a deep sense of peace and togetherness with my brothers and sisters. I've also never felt like when I left a place, I was leaving part of myself behind. 😢 Bahia is like that, and Brazilians are lucky to take part of Africa's greatness right at home. Our country owes our essense to Africa.
Eu olho a bahia acho muito legal Ver os irmao afrodescendente vivendo sua cultura Eu olho os negros Norte americanos E parece que eles perderam sua cultura ou foi tirado deles no tempo colonial Se o branco norte americano pode viver a cultura deles o negro tambem deviria buscar suas origens assim como no Brasil Eu acho muito bonito ver os negros da bahia vivendo suas raizes
What is inside comes out. Hip hop, jazz, rock, trap...all of this is rooted in the soul. I am from the north and I do not feel disconnected from my roots. I feel grounded in who I am... I carry my heritage in my blood unbound by tradition.
@@TheYarbrosthat's so amazing because I said the same thing in a comment just now. What's in blood and the soul... I'm 15% African in the DNA, look Hispanic, but my soul is deeply anchored in my African ancestry and culture. Being Brazilian is being African.
Olodum é patrimônio cultural de Salvador, sendo sua referência musical no toque de tambores. Fora os atrativos turísticos existentes em Salvador, na Bahia do Brasil, o Olodum representa a força da afro brasileira existente na região.
estado de Maranhão é conhecida como Jamaica brasileira. vcs tem que visitar pois fora da Bahia o Maranhão é o segundo estado do Brasil que tem afrodescendentes.a música que mais se ouvir é o reggae
You two do a wonderful job of educating us about our cousins in all the countries you visit. Please keep it up! Brazil…another Black majority country ran by the oppressive white minority. Reminds me of Jamaica with Manley vs Seaga. And of course South Africa. Haste the day when ALL oppression of people with Melanin shall cease! 💪🏾🌍🖤
@@TheYarbros I assure you Brazil is not a Black majority country. Not even close. You are more than welcome to travel throughout all 26 states of Brazil and see for yourself. Why must you Americans from the USA always bringing racial agendas with you?
@@South_American When 75% of people killed by the police are of African descent, when the majority of the country identifies as black or mixed but the over whelming majority of politicians are white, when blacks earn on average 57% less than white, when the favelas are filled with black and brown ppl, when Brazil tried to erase black from the population....the racial divide already existed we simply speak on it. The power structures here are very easy to identify. They are built into the very fabric of society. According to the black communities we talk to...they also are very aware of it.
@@TheYarbros But you do bring racial agendas and racial propaganda with you. Brazil is not a Black majority country. Brazil is only 7% - 8% Black people. It is quite obvious you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. You are trying to apply what "mixed" means in the USA and apply it to Latin America but not all of the people in the "mixed" category in Latin America or in Brazil have African ancestry. The majority of the Brazilian population does not physically look like either one of you two. There is not 1 single state in Brazil that is majority Black. Not 1 state. You are more than welcome to travel throughout all 26 states of Brazil and see for yourself. In fact, come back and talk to me after you have traveled extensively throughout all 26 states of Brazil.
@@South_American No, agenda over here. Nope, not at all. we are just restating the obvious. Brazil's racial agenda is already pretty clearly stated in it's policies and it's treatment of black and indigenous people. We are just airing it out. Let's say you were correct it is 8% Black and Blacks accounted for 75% of police murders that statistic would speak volumes about Brazil's racial agenda. Whatever the case may be those identifying as Black or those designated as Black. Black ppl and Brazil have a serious disconnect that needs to be addressed.
I can say one thing, all gringos who spent a lot of time in Brazil and made videos around here say they liked it and that Brazil changed them as people for the better
You guys should visit Recife, the capital of Pernambuco state, also in the Northeast region of Brazil. The african influence in popular music here is huge: we have maracatu - the oldest form os black resistance through music in the country - , "coco de roda" and "coco de umbigada", frevo... the list goes on. And the mangue beat movement that reached international success in the 90s and 00s for it's inovative mixture of those traditional rythims with rock music with bands like Chico Science e Nação Zumbi and Mundo Livre SA was born here. If you come around Carnival time, it's a BLAST of popular culture, and most of it is derived from black culture.
It looks like y'all are having a ball in Brazil. Do you agree? I'm going to throw an oddball at y'all. Have y'all considered Guyana? It'sthe only English speaking nation in South America and it's full of black people but the other half are Indian. What y'all think about that? I'm hoping to visit there one day because the country has a lot of natural beauty.
We'd love to go there if we only thought our channel would watch the videos....we'll poll the people to see if they are interested. Thanks for watching and for the suggestiona!
Salvador is a capital of Bahia, is a State almost the size of Francr, you must travel in Bahia, not only Salvador. Baiano, is a people born in Bahia, they are very artistic peope, from the music, visual arts, food and dance. Outoside of Salavodr there is "Reconcavo Baiano" where there is more AFRO culture, Chapada da Diamantina National Park is located in the countryside you must go there if you loove nature.
Yes, we understand but time and money didn't allow a deeper dive this time around. We did visit some other cities in Bahia though for ourselves, not the channel.
It's really not possible to know exactly which country in Africa the family is from, but because of many parts of Brazil, families could worship their religions, their music, traditions and many words from the original country, for these reasons it is possible in some regions or in specific families to know what part of Africa they PROBABLY came from
Okay, I don't believe I said any specifics but yes they tried to unsuccessfully erase our history but the trail is there broadly speaking...ship logs, dr. visits, legal documents.... and of course there's DNA now.
It was thru DNA test that I discovered I have 15% African ancestry. I felt so grateful and very special, because I adore our culture, especially the African influence. They show countries and percentages from each country. It's very cool.
Oh my, makes me want to visit Brazil. Thanks for sharing, I have enjoyed, I'm just worried if I were there, I`d not feel comfortable in the midst of strangers at night. Are you practicing your Portuguese? You guys stay safe
Brazil is not what you imagine. What you said is biased. it's racist. The most violent country in the world is precisely the USA. Everyone comes to Brazil, they return to their lands unharmed and happy. But I can't say the same for the US. It is not in Brazil that people are murdered by suffocation in front of the population and in broad daylight.
I like your content and appreciate your enthusiasm. It is always interesting to hear other perspectives about Brazil. I do have one critique. Could you please not speak over the people you are interviewing. I think that works "live" between two people speaking, however on tape it is confusing.
Sou filho de baiano com carioca 😁 tenho uma dica pra vcs:Visitem o Recôncavo baiano:As cidades de Cachoeira e São Félix,a família do meu pai é nascida nessas cidades 😘❤️ axé 🙏 pra vcs, trabalho lindo de vcs,continuem assim ❤️
I'm an American who has lived in Salvador for 20 years. So happy you're enjoying the city, and I hope you return.
For sure...next time we'll bring some folks with us too!
Lugar incrível
I love that you guys always share the Black Diaspora no matter where you go in the world! The music is great ❤
Thank you...we feel like our audience would find it as interesting and rewarding as we do. Thanks for turning in!
Olodum rocks! I love that group!
We understand... powerful music.

I don't see any lies here....this place is instantly comfortable.

You so very sympatic, i like you're videos, thank you!❤❤
Obrigato!
Brazil is 😍😍😍😍😍😍
😁😁😁
O melhor lugar do planeta 😊
Okay! lol
It looks like y'all are having a ball in Brazil. Do you agree? I'm going to throw an oddball at y'all. Have y'all considered Guyana? It'sthe only English speaking nation in South America and it's full of black people but the other half are Indian. What y'all think about that? I'm hoping to visit there one day because the country has a lot of natural beauty.
We'd love to go there if we only thought our channel would watch the videos....we'll poll the people to see if they are interested. Thanks for watching and for the suggestiona!
I would love to see Guyana!
Salvador is a capital of Bahia, is a State almost the size of Francr, you must travel in Bahia, not only Salvador. Baiano, is a people born in Bahia, they are very artistic peope, from the music, visual arts, food and dance. Outoside of Salavodr there is "Reconcavo Baiano" where there is more AFRO culture, Chapada da Diamantina National Park is located in the countryside you must go there if you loove nature.
Yes, we understand but time and money didn't allow a deeper dive this time around. We did visit some other cities in Bahia though for ourselves, not the channel.
Nice one bro ❤❤❤
Thanks!
@@TheYarbros you are welcome keep the good job
Even Michael Jackson teamed up with Olodum!
True....
Welcome afro americans in Salvador Bahia 😊
Bahia a África do outro lado do Atlântico🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Right across the ocean!

It's really not possible to know exactly which country in Africa the family is from, but because of many parts of Brazil, families could worship their religions, their music, traditions and many words from the original country, for these reasons it is possible in some regions or in specific families to know what part of Africa they PROBABLY came from
Okay, I don't believe I said any specifics but yes they tried to unsuccessfully erase our history but the trail is there broadly speaking...ship logs, dr. visits, legal documents.... and of course there's DNA now.
It was thru DNA test that I discovered I have 15% African ancestry. I felt so grateful and very special, because I adore our culture, especially the African influence. They show countries and percentages from each country. It's very cool.
follow the suggestions Ed Carlos gave to you and come to Cachoeira!
We keep hearing how beautiful it is....maybe we will take a trip!
The word CURTO in Portuguese has two meanings: CURTO = SHORT, ENJOY and/or CURRY (TO CURRY). Depends on the context. 👍🏻😀
👌🏾👍🏾
The name is Olodum. I think that it is a IPhone problem.
Yes, it slipped. Thanks for catching that!
Oh my, makes me want to visit Brazil. Thanks for sharing, I have enjoyed, I'm just worried if I were there, I`d not feel comfortable in the midst of strangers at night.
Are you practicing your Portuguese? You guys stay safe
Thanks for watching! It definitely got roudy at points in the thick of it but sticking to the outer edges of the crowd is a good place to be.
@@TheYarbros Good to know, just keep safe things can get rough especially in the dark with alcohol combined.Thanks for sharing.
Brazil is not what you imagine. What you said is biased. it's racist. The most violent country in the world is precisely the USA. Everyone comes to Brazil, they return to their lands unharmed and happy. But I can't say the same for the US. It is not in Brazil that people are murdered by suffocation in front of the population and in broad daylight.
I like your content and appreciate your enthusiasm. It is always interesting to hear other perspectives about Brazil. I do have one critique. Could you please not speak over the people you are interviewing. I think that works "live" between two people speaking, however on tape it is confusing.
Thanks for watching, appreciating and the critique.
❤🎶🎶🎸🥁
Gracias! 🖐🏾
Michal Jackson Played with Olodum.
Ahh yeah, "all I really know is that they don't really care about us" -Nice!
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

Eu acho que selvagem é uma palavra errada,é a ancestralidade africana pura, linda e pura 😉😘❤️
Okay, tell us how you feel. lol Beautiful and pure! Thanks for tuning in.
