I'm so Called African American and I am Part Igbo it's true we are a Intelligent, Smart, Industrious people yet we are also Stubborn, very head strong, willful people.
@loveonmyside2184, Your right my bro. There is a reason for strong headed Igbos. Am Igbo from Nigeria. We as a people was probable the only tribe that was practicing democracy in the whole of Africa. Igbos never in their history have a monarchy and is like that till date. So we are republican by DNA. every Igbo man is master of his destiny. We have chieftain and chiefs but they are just custodian of our culture. and traditions. Community decisions are made by counsel of elders which head of this body is the oldest man in the village, the OKPARA or DIOKPA. Haiti became the first black nation of freed slaves because majority of slaves in Haiti where from Igbo tribe. Its extremely difficult to control an Igbo man or Woman. Aba women revolt in 1929 against british colonial government over taxation. This revolt ushered in fight for end to colonial rule in Africa.
@@lovesonmyside2184 Oh ok Sister. Your Igbo lineage is paternal, thats kool. Both Igbo men and women are very intelligent, hardworking and highly entrepreneurial. Have you heard of Nigeria vs Biafran war??
Yorubas becomes the most influential with their culture and tradition.., Go to cuba, Brazil , Trinidad today the Yoruba culture and religion still present till date .
And why is that? It was because the yorubas were the last of the major ethnic group brought in large numbers to the new world in the 19th century when slavery was on a serious decline. This was simply as a result of the fall of the oyo empire. They were thus still well versed in their culture and religion. Again after the slave trade, many yorubas were also taken as indentured servants to the new world which continued into the early 20th century. Thus it was easy to see why undiluted Yoruba culture pervaded the New world unlike the cultures of Akan, Igbo, Congo, temne, Wolof etc that were lost in time due to the fact that the slaves were taken to the new world much earlier.
Honestly Yoruba should have included but if we consider the time frame of slavery to the Americas, the Yorubas arrived relatively late and the culture survives in places which continued with slavery after the British and later the French abolished it. Thus you can only see such Yoruba features in Spanish or Portuguese speaking countries. In the case of Trinidad, it was also a later development when freed Yoruba slaves moved and introduced their culture in the 1800s.

@@ogochukwuizu6334The more reason why it should not have been overlooked. Whatever the time frame, what matters is that they were enslaved too in large numbers and with culture and traditional worship still prevailing.
@ogochukwuizu6334 what a reason, if that is true, other ethnic groups were brought to both north and south America at that time, why those other ethnic groups don't have their culture, religion etc still being practiced till today in some of those places like the yorubas.
Amen amen. May God do a new good thing in memory of this loss. May blacks walk with their head high and be good to one another. Actually why we looked positively to the West was because of the positive contribution of blacks in art, athletics etc. Oh LORD remember this phenomenon and be gracious to the blacks.

That is is not true, majority of them were stolen, you have no idea the impact that it has on many families the agony, pain suffering and bitterness that the relatives that were left behind went through, it makes me angry any time I see comments that they were sold, I witness my grandmother’s pain and bitterness as a child till the day she died the same as my grandfather, my great grandmother siblings were kidnapped including their parents, the same as my great grandfather and his siblings and parents but my great grandfather escaped and finds his way back to Ghana, in my family, when I was growing up, it is forbidden to marry a white because they called them kidnappers or people that steal humans, I wonder why in Europe they said they were sold while if you come to Ghana most families were kidnapped by gun
@fredericakitisu5417 Yes, the same I feel very sad knowing that a lot of our people suffered in the hand of these invaders. For that I believe that every African person ought to teach their children to never, ever engage emotionally with the devil's offspring, and never insults us marrying that kind of beast. I only apologise, that there some pale people that seem not to despise our people this time, but many do innermost. Anyway, they being good or bad today, we ought to keep our blood pure of that kind.
Don't mind these brainwashed Africans that believe the lies if the same people that enslaved and colonized them. Without even knowing anything about history, common sense should tell you that it can't be trade. Why would a whole continent would want to be selling their people off to strangers willingly. So why are the modern Africans not selling their children off?
Mundele in Kongo means terrorist that's how they called people who raided our villages for slaves. Africa has a sad history. We need to make Africa great again coz it's our turn to make history.
@@kranezala7210 Who thought you this if not for the colonizers in order to justify the evil they did. Africa was attacked, invaded, then, conquered with guns (gun powder) if not it would not have been possible. It was never a trade, though some Africans participated in kidnapping some villagers by the instruction of the colonizers (we had already been conquered) for money which is expected in any society, there must be bad eggs. Africa practiced servant, not slavery. We don't have a bad history. Stop playing the book of the colonizers. Educate yourself
In American Afro history, there was a part of Central Park NYC Manhattan, called Senagal Village where there was a settlement there that was physically forcefully uprooted,. I wonder if in fact that if that very settlement was formerly erected by Senegalese.
This mostly lines up with my DNA test, Senegambia, Ghana, Nigeria, Congo/Angola. The one thing I will say is to not forget the Yorubas. They may not have been as numerous in the US as they were in Cuba, Brazil, or Trinidad, but nonetheless, they were here and did make an impact on America. As for me, I resonate the most with the Igbo people. The Yorubas, and Akan as well but something about the Igbos that just hits me in the heart...

I like that you put “tribes” in columns. The people were not exhausted from field/plantation work as such as most were from ethnic nations which had 1000s of years expertise in agriculture. It was due to the permanent undernourishment, working up to 12-14 hrs daily - the inhuman working conditions. Senegambians, Guinea people were experts in rice cultivation- Igbo (pronounced: “Eebo”): Yam, cocoyam = all edible tuber plants, beans, etc. All those different groups had substantial knowledge of medicinal/ edible plants which helped them to easily identify endogamic American species with the same or similar properties. But the enslaved expertise was way beyond than agricultural knowledge & skills though the first was predominant - altogether nice video

No way that the Congo peoples were darker then the Wolof and Mandinka of Senegambia and the Akan of Ghana. In many books they often paired Igbos with Kongo because they resembeld each other more.
😂😂😂 The Kongo look absolutely NOTHING like those igbo, they are a complete different people. nigerians are unique in AFRICA as no-one look like them whether yoruba, benu, igbo, orobo they just something else And west AFRICANS look different from central/southern/eastern AFRICANS just like germans look different from portugues.

Thanks for the upload but your research is inconclusive without mentioning the Yoruba tribe, as some of my people were taken to south America : Brazil, Cuba, Colombia and Trinidad and Tobago.
It's crazy to drive into such sensitive topic without knowledging the Yorubas when their cultures and religion can be seen allover south America, the Caribbean, and north America mostly USA
Exactly. I am Brasilian of Yoruba ancestry in both families like most Brasilians with enslaved ancestry. Also, the majority of the enslaved Yorubas were sent to Brasil. 🇧🇷
I sympathize with you but the Igbos were brought to the Virginia colony but even there, they were in the presence of many from Senegambia, which is why you see so many Muslim narratives in the US. The "Bight" slaves, which is inclusive of Igbos were unwelcomed because they were suicidal or would run away. They were a proud people, it is what it is. The Yorubas went mostly to the Spanish colonies, and other parts of the Carribean, which is why the latinos have all of the Nigerian gods. In the US, the remnants that you find the Grisgris, which was worn by Muslim slaves and the hand of Fatima, etched on a tree in Dufauski island South Carolina(the hand with the big blue eye in the middle).
I'm from the Caribbean (St. Croix US Virgin Islands) and traced my ancestry via DNA to the Igbos of Nigeria and the Akan People of Ghana!!! I visited both Nigeria and Ghana and saw people who looked like Family!!! Ironically, I have an adopted Son in Ghana who comes from the Akan People (Fanti) and looks just like me!!!

I appreciate the video, but may l point out that my ancestors were free African men and women. Their intrinsic identity wasn't that of slaves. Perhaps you can replace the word "slaves" with "Africans" or "the enslaved".
Ok! I don’t know where u did your research but somehow, u omitted the most consequential and popular African diaspora group; the Yoruba. Really mind boggling. 🤦🏾♂️
😂 LoL as a Yoruba man I know it’s not a prideful thing to say Yorubas made a large group of slaves that was stolen from west Africa, you sound like you have something against Yoruba race. But sorry their present and heritage can’t be erased in Brazil, Cuba, Trinidad, and the America’s. The greats tribe from Africa. Shalom
He has nothing against the Yoruba. Very few Yorubas got to the US or Anglophone areas and those that got to the countries you mentioned arrived much later in the 1800s corresponding with the period of communal wars in Yoruba land.
That's what happens when you BETRAYED The Mighty Jesus Christ Our Lord and Saviour, 2024 Hopefully lessons learnt 🙏🏿 🌞 AFRICANS are Hemites and Shemites and some are BOTH And The Holy Bible states that ALL AFRICANS WERE TAKEN INTO SLAVERY whether Egyptians, Ethiopians etc So some of you in the disapora are NOT descendants of the Biblical seeds of Israel. 🙏🏿😊 Now the only important thing is to be born again and have a very strong spiritual connection with Jesus Christ and be fill with the Holy Spirit, And spread the Gospel, Nothing else matters in this end time 😊
Also, according to the BOOK, Israelites sold other Israelites into slavery. We know this from the story of Joseph. The BOOK even provides stipulations on how to do this. We all Afrikan, but just have different values on life.
Martyrdome of Bartholomew"" And when you behold Him, fear nothing; but when I make the sign of the cross, so also do ye with your finger seal your faces, and these evil things will flee from you. Then HE SHOWED THEM THE DEMON WHO DWELT IN THE TEMPLE, LIKE AN ETHIOPIAN, BLACK AS SOOT; his face sharp like a dog's, thin-cheeked, with hair down to his feet, eyes like fire, sparks coming out of his mouth; and out of his nostrils came forth smoke like sulphur, with wings spined like a porcupine; and his hands were bound with fiery chains, and he was firmly kept in. And the angel of the Lord said to him: As also the apostle has commanded, I let you go; go where voice of man is not heard, and be there until the great day of judgment. And when he let him go, he flew away, groaning and weeping, and disappeared. And the angel of the Lord went up into heaven in the sight of all. The Book of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ by the Apostle Bartholomew is a Coptic text preserved in only three manuscripts and can be dated to the 5th or 6th century CE. In this text, as is the case in the Questions of Bartholomew, Bartholomew is identified with Nathaniel (John 1:46-52). Second Book of Adam and Eve: Chapter IV. ADAM SEES THE DEVIL IN HIS TRUE COLORS. THEN GOD ORDERED SATAN TO SHOW HIMSELF TO ADAM plainly, in his own hideous form. 2 But when Adam saw him, he feared, and trembled at the sight of him. 3 AND GOD SAID TO ADAM, 'Look at this devil, and at his hideous look, and know that he it is who made thee fall from brightness into darkness, from peace and rest to toil and misery. 4 AND LOOK O ADAM, AT HIM, WHO SAID OF HIMSELF THAT HE IS GOD! CAN GOD BE BLACK? could God take the form of a woman? Is there any one stronger than God? And can He be overpowered Extant versions of the Life of Adam and Eve have consequently been used to reconstruct the supposed original, which was probably composed sometime between 20 BC and AD 70, because the apocalyptic portion of the work (chapter 29) seems to imply that the Herodian Temple of Jerusalem was functioning when the book was written
Those scoffing..how come it different whe hijackings etc happen to some people. ..So they (scoffers) are the ones hurt by the truth. Africa was minding its business when scavengers descended on it.
@YoungLion449 No. White people know what they did. Now, it's time for black people to know their role in the slave trade. White people we're not innocent and neither were black people. The problem is that too many black people refuse to accept the truth.
I appreciate the intentions behind this video, but it could use a little bit more research and context. There were a lot of groupings in this video and misrepresentations of ethnicities. As a result, he applied facts about one ethnic group to another and most times combined completely distinct ethnic groups into one. This doesn't portray an accurate representation of the people.
No mention of the oldest tribe in Nigeria, the Ijaw people. They are indigenous to the Niger Delta, going back 5000 years right back to the Nile Valley Civilizations.
You do know that America is older than Africa? Thats an easily researchable fact. America was the new world to them, not new to us. My family's genealogy, as well as oral, written, and documented family history proves that myself, and my family, and the majority of brown 🤎 people that have been misclassified over and over again as black, negro, Afro-American, mulatto, and African-American are in fact Indigenous to America. My family, and I belong to the Creek, and Cherokee tribes. We're American by blood, formed by the Creator from this American dust/clay, not by boat..respectfully. We were the copper colored people here before Columbus or anyone else, and we're not going anywhere. APTTMH.
I’ve read a lot. I’m a Paralegal and doing research is at my fingertips. Don’t talk of lack of knowledge when it comes to me. In Africa, not everyone’s a Hebrew so the indigenous people in the land sold some of the Hebrews. Did you read Deuteronomy 28: 68? What about Genesis 15:13-14? God had already cursed our forefathers what was going to happen to them bcos of their sins but you’re apportioning blame to those who sold them. God is going to punish those who took our ancestors and made them slaves but I never read anywhere in the Bible God is going to those who sold them. I’m not saying i agree to it but since Elohim pronounced it, it was bound to happen. Stop the blame game please.
I would love and appreciate if you can make a video of which African tribes that's mixed with morden Hispanics Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, Columbia, Cuba heritage etc. Please

The slaves in the Trans Atlantic period were Hebrews who migrated to Africa after the fall of Israel by the Romans and also those kicked out of Spain by the Pope and were sold by the indigenous Africans who saw these strangers, even though black skinned as Aliens in their land and sold them to the money hungry Portuguese, and Spanish colonists after getting the approval by the sitting Pope who initially ruled slavery into law thus starting the Slave trade. The Hebrews were skin folk and not kin folk so they had no attachment to the original African settlers. Brazil, the Caribbean and then the U. S was our landing spots. We are Hebrews who were sold FIRST
People need to understand that black people are not one people with one language . We are different people with different languages and culture. Some of them were kidnapped while the rest of them were captured during war. Technically,they sold their enemies to slavery,not black people sild black people. People should stopped assuming black people sold black people to slavery, they were fighting Among themselves over land. I'm Yoruba, and from Yoruba history that I read and told by elders. The British came during the time war. 1.Yoruba people were fighting an internal war 2. They were also fighting against their neighbours over territories.They needed to expand their land. When the Europeans came,The Europeans met people waging wars against each other. The captured during the war were sold to the Europeans. Finally,when the Europeans settled down among them, kidnapping became the norm. Assuming the Europeans did not come,they would have killed each other to the last group standing. Those that could not kill each other, would eventually make peace, create borders and etc The war The Europeans stopped then, is what Make the continent Africa unstable now.
I don’t know why it’s so hard for some people to understand that. No one was a monolith in Africa, Europe, Asia, or the Americas. We as human beings in totality have always been multiethnic often at war with our neighbors. Ukraine and Russia are at war right now same with Palestinians and Jews. If these aren’t interethnic conflicts I don’t know what is. However, people still can’t get it through their heads that Africa is not a monolith and never was.
Thank you for the fine information, however I cannot understand the non-inclusion of the Yorubas in these west African selection? They were also taken as slaves from west African, and judging by my tour of an island off of Senegal, our tour guide said that there were a large number of Yorubas that were taken as slaves as well.
that whole slave trade has been debunked only a small number of people came here, and where's the indigenous American people who were taken? What happened to them? 😂 I say you brought them back and just claimed that they were African 😂
No slavery was dignified, and neither was slave ownership, but denying your heritage doesn't change your ancestral linage either. Obviously, the entire continent wasn't dignified. It was all taken over by colonizers. And here you are even today still colonized with so many puppet leaders who do the dirty work of the colonizers with a big, giant, goofy grin.

First of all, the Africans are not our ancestors. The black Hebrews are out ancestors. We are the ancestors of the tribe of Shem. The son of Noah read the history about noah's 3 sons. One sun, the Africans came from which his Ham The other son is jepheth The Indian the Europeans, the Asians and the Middle East part of the Middle East people descend from him.

Again after the slave trade, many yorubas were also taken as indentured servants to the new world which continued into the early 20th century. Thus it was easy to see why undiluted Yoruba culture pervaded the New world unlike the cultures of Akan, Igbo, Congo, temne, Wolof etc that were lost in time due to the fact that the slaves were taken to the new world much earlier.
Honestly Yoruba should have included but if we consider the time frame of slavery to the Americas, the Yorubas arrived relatively late and the culture survives in places which continued with slavery after the British and later the French abolished it. Thus you can only see such Yoruba features in Spanish or Portuguese speaking countries. In the case of Trinidad, it was also a later development when freed Yoruba slaves moved and introduced their culture in the 1800s.
Black Americans are not Africans, so stop this madness.
What is this obsession with attaching Black Americans to Africa and Africans?
This has been by far the biggest west African scam used on Black Americans ever.
Less than 3% of the enslaved Africans were taken to North America and the vast majority were taken throughout the Caribbean islands and Brazil so go convince them that they are nothing more than “Africans” and leave my people alone!!!!
We have no cultural similarities to any west Africans.

@@ogochukwuizu6334The more reason why it should not have been overlooked. Whatever the time frame, what matters is that they were enslaved too in large numbers and with culture and traditional worship still prevailing.
@ogochukwuizu6334 what a reason, if that is true, other ethnic groups were brought to both north and south America at that time, why those other ethnic groups don't have their culture, religion etc still being practiced till today in some of those places like the yorubas.
Thanks for sharing the Beautiful History of the ancestry of our people
Amen amen. May God do a new good thing in memory of this loss. May blacks walk with their head high and be good to one another. Actually why we looked positively to the West was because of the positive contribution of blacks in art, athletics etc. Oh LORD remember this phenomenon and be gracious to the blacks. They were endowed with strength beauty etc.. reclaim your glory wherever you are..
We must remember our melanin is the key to our success we as a people can hear,see,taste, and smell better than any race.

Finally, truthful researched history! Shared and subscribed. Keep them coming!
That is is not true, majority of them were stolen, you have no idea the impact that it has on many families the agony, pain suffering and bitterness that the relatives that were left behind went through, it makes me angry any time I see comments that they were sold, I witness my grandmother’s pain and bitterness as a child till the day she died the same as my grandfather, my great grandmother siblings were kidnapped including their parents, the same as my great grandfather and his siblings and parents but my great grandfather escaped and finds his way back to Ghana, in my family, when I was growing up, it is forbidden to marry a white because they called them kidnappers or people that steal humans, I wonder why in Europe they said they were sold while if you come to Ghana most families were kidnapped by gun
@fredericakitisu5417
Yes, the same I feel very sad knowing that a lot of our people suffered in the hand of these invaders. For that I believe that every African person ought to teach their children to never, ever engage emotionally with the devil's offspring, and never insults us marrying that kind of beast. I only apologise, that there some pale people that seem not to despise our people this time, but many do innermost. Anyway, they being good or bad today, we ought to keep our blood pure of that kind.
Don't mind these brainwashed Africans that believe the lies if the same people that enslaved and colonized them. Without even knowing anything about history, common sense should tell you that it can't be trade. Why would a whole continent would want to be selling their people off to strangers willingly. So why are the modern Africans not selling their children off?
Very true.
Mundele in Kongo means terrorist that's how they called people who raided our villages for slaves. Africa has a sad history. We need to make Africa great again coz it's our turn to make history.
@@kranezala7210 Who thought you this if not for the colonizers in order to justify the evil they did. Africa was attacked, invaded, then, conquered with guns (gun powder) if not it would not have been possible. It was never a trade, though some Africans participated in kidnapping some villagers by the instruction of the colonizers (we had already been conquered) for money which is expected in any society, there must be bad eggs. Africa practiced servant, not slavery. We don't have a bad history. Stop playing the book of the colonizers. Educate yourself
Thanks for the great video. Ache.
In American Afro history, there was a part of Central Park NYC Manhattan, called Senagal Village where there was a settlement there that was physically forcefully uprooted,. I wonder if in fact that if that very settlement was formerly erected by Senegalese.
This mostly lines up with my DNA test, Senegambia, Ghana, Nigeria, Congo/Angola. The one thing I will say is to not forget the Yorubas. They may not have been as numerous in the US as they were in Cuba, Brazil, or Trinidad, but nonetheless, they were here and did make an impact on America. As for me, I resonate the most with the Igbo people. The Yorubas, and Akan as well but something about the Igbos that just hits me in the heart...
My Igbo were explain well

@@trenee23000No Egyptian DNA ? None ?
I like that you put “tribes” in columns. The people were not exhausted from field/plantation work as such as most were from ethnic nations which had 1000s of years expertise in agriculture. It was due to the permanent undernourishment, working up to 12-14 hrs daily - the inhuman working conditions. Senegambians, Guinea people were experts in rice cultivation- Igbo (pronounced: “Eebo”): Yam, cocoyam = all edible tuber plants, beans, etc. All those different groups had substantial knowledge of medicinal/ edible plants which helped them to easily identify endogamic American species with the same or similar properties. But the enslaved expertise was way beyond than agricultural knowledge & skills though the first was predominant - altogether nice video

No way that the Congo peoples were darker then the Wolof and Mandinka of Senegambia and the Akan of Ghana. In many books they often paired Igbos with Kongo because they resembeld each other more.
Mate, all Africans are black people period skin colour didn’t matter to slave masters though.
😂😂😂 The Kongo look absolutely NOTHING like those igbo, they are a complete different people. nigerians are unique in AFRICA as no-one look like them whether yoruba, benu, igbo, orobo they just something else And west AFRICANS look different from central/southern/eastern AFRICANS just like germans look different from portugues.

In which books or articles?
Correction, people were stolen before they were sold. Don't mix it up. If u are not an African who knows and understood what really happened.

Thanks for the upload but your research is inconclusive without mentioning the Yoruba tribe, as some of my people were taken to south America : Brazil, Cuba, Colombia and Trinidad and Tobago.
It's crazy to drive into such sensitive topic without knowledging the Yorubas when their cultures and religion can be seen allover south America, the Caribbean, and north America mostly USA
Especially Brazil
Many parts of USA are hiding pyramids! They were used for electric grids!
Exactly. I am Brasilian of Yoruba ancestry in both families like most Brasilians with enslaved ancestry. Also, the majority of the enslaved Yorubas were sent to Brasil. 🇧🇷
Not so much North America mainly South America and the Caribbean.
I sympathize with you but the Igbos were brought to the Virginia colony but even there, they were in the presence of many from Senegambia, which is why you see so many Muslim narratives in the US. The "Bight" slaves, which is inclusive of Igbos were unwelcomed because they were suicidal or would run away. They were a proud people, it is what it is. The Yorubas went mostly to the Spanish colonies, and other parts of the Carribean, which is why the latinos have all of the Nigerian gods. In the US, the remnants that you find the Grisgris, which was worn by Muslim slaves and the hand of Fatima, etched on a tree in Dufauski island South Carolina(the hand with the big blue eye in the middle).

He has nothing against the Yoruba. Very few Yorubas got to the US or Anglophone areas and those that got to the countries you mentioned arrived much later in the 1800s corresponding with the period of communal wars in Yoruba land.

Also, according to the BOOK, Israelites sold other Israelites into slavery. We know this from the story of Joseph. The BOOK even provides stipulations on how to do this. We all Afrikan, but just have different values on life.

Martyrdome of Bartholomew"" And when you behold Him, fear nothing; but when I make the sign of the cross, so also do ye with your finger seal your faces, and these evil things will flee from you. Then HE SHOWED THEM THE DEMON WHO DWELT IN THE TEMPLE, LIKE AN ETHIOPIAN, BLACK AS SOOT; his face sharp like a dog's, thin-cheeked, with hair down to his feet, eyes like fire, sparks coming out of his mouth; and out of his nostrils came forth smoke like sulphur, with wings spined like a porcupine; and his hands were bound with fiery chains, and he was firmly kept in. And the angel of the Lord said to him: As also the apostle has commanded, I let you go; go where voice of man is not heard, and be there until the great day of judgment. And when he let him go, he flew away, groaning and weeping, and disappeared. And the angel of the Lord went up into heaven in the sight of all. The Book of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ by the Apostle Bartholomew is a Coptic text preserved in only three manuscripts and can be dated to the 5th or 6th century CE. In this text, as is the case in the Questions of Bartholomew, Bartholomew is identified with Nathaniel (John 1:46-52).
Second Book of Adam and Eve: Chapter IV. ADAM SEES THE DEVIL IN HIS TRUE COLORS. THEN GOD ORDERED SATAN TO SHOW HIMSELF TO ADAM plainly, in his own hideous form. 2 But when Adam saw him, he feared, and trembled at the sight of him. 3 AND GOD SAID TO ADAM, 'Look at this devil, and at his hideous look, and know that he it is who made thee fall from brightness into darkness, from peace and rest to toil and misery. 4 AND LOOK O ADAM, AT HIM, WHO SAID OF HIMSELF THAT HE IS GOD! CAN GOD BE BLACK? could God take the form of a woman? Is there any one stronger than God? And can He be overpowered
Extant versions of the Life of Adam and Eve have consequently been used to reconstruct the supposed original, which was probably composed sometime between 20 BC and AD 70, because the apocalyptic portion of the work (chapter 29) seems to imply that the Herodian Temple of Jerusalem was functioning when the book was written

I’ve read a lot. I’m a Paralegal and doing research is at my fingertips. Don’t talk of lack of knowledge when it comes to me.

God had already cursed our forefathers what was going to happen to them bcos of their sins but you’re apportioning blame to those who sold them. God is going to punish those who took our ancestors and made them slaves but I never read anywhere in the Bible God is going to those who sold them.

The slaves in the Trans Atlantic period were Hebrews who migrated to Africa after the fall of Israel by the Romans and also those kicked out of Spain by the Pope and were sold by the indigenous Africans who saw these strangers, even though black skinned as Aliens in their land and sold them to the money hungry Portuguese, and Spanish colonists after getting the approval by the sitting Pope who initially ruled slavery into law thus starting the Slave trade. The Hebrews were skin folk and not kin folk so they had no attachment to the original African settlers. Brazil, the Caribbean and then the U. S was our landing spots. We are Hebrews who were sold FIRST
You omitted the yorubas. Hahahaha. U know no history man!!!
People need to understand that black people are not one people with one language .
We are different people with different languages and culture.
Some of them were kidnapped while the rest of them were captured during war.
Technically,they sold their enemies to slavery,not black people sild black people.
People should stopped assuming black people sold black people to slavery, they were fighting Among themselves over land.
I'm Yoruba, and from Yoruba history that I read and told by elders.
The British came during the time war.
1.Yoruba people were fighting an internal war
2. They were also fighting against their neighbours over territories.They needed to expand their land.
When the Europeans came,The Europeans met people waging wars against each other. The captured during the war were sold to the Europeans.
Finally,when the Europeans settled down among them, kidnapping became the norm.
Assuming the Europeans did not come,they would have killed each other to the last group standing.
Those that could not kill each other, would eventually make peace, create borders and etc
The war The Europeans stopped then, is what Make the continent Africa unstable now.
I don’t know why it’s so hard for some people to understand that. No one was a monolith in Africa, Europe, Asia, or the Americas. We as human beings in totality have always been multiethnic often at war with our neighbors. Ukraine and Russia are at war right now same with Palestinians and Jews. If these aren’t interethnic conflicts I don’t know what is. However, people still can’t get it through their heads that Africa is not a monolith and never was.

Thank you for the fine information, however I cannot understand the non-inclusion of the Yorubas in these west African selection?

that whole slave trade has been debunked only a small number of people came here, and where's the indigenous American people who were taken? What happened to them? 😂 I say you brought them back and just claimed that they were African 😂
So everyone is fighting to identify themselves with those enslaved and for what reason, was slavery dignified?
No slavery was dignified, and neither was slave ownership, but denying your heritage doesn't change your ancestral linage either. Obviously, the entire continent wasn't dignified. It was all taken over by colonizers. And here you are even today still colonized with so many puppet leaders who do the dirty work of the colonizers with a big, giant, goofy grin.

The Kongo are
indeed very joyful but also very rebellious against their enslavement Everywhere they were trafficked and that includes USA, with the famous Johnny rebellion Which is recorded to be the biggest rebellion against slavery, Zumbi in Brazil with Kilombo Palmares, same in Haiti with the kongo Makanda aka in french Macandal who strategized the Haitian rebellion against slavery militarily and spirituality with the Makaba Divine wisdom and yes the Benin borned toussaint louverture a fervent Catholic did help in the rebellion against slavery but was not the architect of it.
There were no Gabon kingdom as Today's Gabon was part of the Kongo kingdom so please don't spread misinformations .😊
I call bullshit.....stop the cap!!
Stop!
What of the mende
First of all, the Africans are not our ancestors. The black Hebrews are out ancestors. We are the ancestors of the tribe of Shem. The son of Noah read the history about noah's 3 sons. One sun, the Africans came from which his Ham The other son is jepheth The Indian the Europeans, the Asians and the Middle East part of the Middle East people descend from him.
The other son Shem, that's where we come from. In all of the blacks who were scattered all over the world come from the tribe of Shem. We are the original descendants of the ancient Hebrews which are not African. No your roots don't get history
Thank you for your comment.
Can you provide evidence to demonstrate the claims you have made?
I mostly base my research on primary sources, not religious books. I am happy to provide additional readings you can look up to learn more about this topic.
Your explanation of the origin of the different ethnic groups is overly simplistic, and is not supported by historical facts. I would be happy if you provided proof to substantiate the claims you are making.
Thank you.
blacKKK people and their facts.🤦🏿

Actually you tried VERY hard, seeing that you came to complain on a channel that obviously disinterests you.
