- The first enslaved Africans landed in what is now the United States 400 years ago. Those first African captives came from the Portuguese colony of Angola, brought to the shores of Virginia in 1619. Some 6 million enslaved Africans came from Angola, most of them sent to Portugal's colonies, though some ended up in North America. VOA’s Mayra de Lassalette and Betty Ayoub traveled to Angola where they heard accounts of the fierce resistance to the slave trade. Mayra de Lassalette narrates.

A lot of black Americans from Louisiana are from Angola. Especially my tribe the Mbundu.
That's correct. I had a recurring dream from a young age about a place or city. When I came to United States, from Africa the first place I stayed is New Orleans. I felt such a strange connection with New Orleans that I was confused. The food such as the Gumbo was definitely was Angolan from the Mbundu tribe. In Mbundu tribe okra is called ocigombo. The cooking style in Louisiana has a huge contribution from slaves from Angola. God is amazing! That recurring dream played out in real life at the French Quarters in New Orleans. I didn't get it back then but later on I realized that God was letting me know that my people who were forced into slavery from Angola were here. Brazil is another country which was created from Angolan slaves. For proof check out the Mardi Gras in New Orleans and the Brazilian Carnival; both carnivals are originally from Angola.
I just find this is my tribe as well
Most Angolan were brought to Brazil 🇧🇷 and and USA but for USA 🇺🇸 was most bakongo from DR congo 🇨🇩 largely than Angola 🇦🇴 most slave in Louisiana came mostly Congo 🇨🇩 and New York Angola and Congo even South Carolina and Florida most are bakongo 🇨🇩
@@domingamwenyo1633no most slaves in Louisiana were most Congo than Angola
@@K7SVN the Mbundu people were part of the Kongo Empire but they were not mukongo
I just saw people from my tribe in Namibia ( damara tribe ) were also sold into slavery.... so I'm doing some research
Most of my ancestors come from angola
U should come to visit us 😉
Yh you most like from my tribe the Mbundu since they kidnapped a lot from the Mbundu in Angola 😞

Stop and pause 1:55 look at the diversity we truly need to stop with the jokes or shading about skin color and embrace our diversity

um abraço apartir de ANGOLA❤
For instance the phrase “spirited away” came from whites who were kidnapped in London off the streets and forced into indentured servitude in the British colonies which would later become America. That went on a long time before any African slaves were brought to the colonies. An average lifespan for an indentured servant was 5 years. It’s also baffling the way the transatlantic slave trade is always exclusively taught to American students without the mention of indentured servitude and you
would think that the Arab slave trade which lasted over a thousand years would be taught in any slavery course, not to mention that slavery dates back in Africa to 4000 BC. and still exist in certain parts of Africa like Nigeria, Togo, Mauritania, etc...
Indentured servitude isn’t taught because it’s not America’s history.. American history is the Atlantic Slave Trade. FACTS!
You’re basing your entire argument on slavery being okay because it was already being done. “They already had slavery for 1,000 years...” Foh
Ella, what you said is important, of course. America, what was to become the USA, didn't invent slavery but did abolish it. Slavery was a fact of life long before America was settled by colonists but that fact doesn't fit the current narrative. The current narrative is intellectually dishonest, corrupt, biased due to it's incompleteness. To focus on a more complete history causes some people to accuse you of condoning slavery. Strange, isn't it, that some people use defective reasoning to bolster their opinions.
nemo227 yeah they abolished something that they started IN AMERICA!! America had no history of slavery until white people enslaved Africans here in America.. and indentured servitude isn’t America’s history! Chattel Slavery however is a huge part of American history.. America was also built on the backs of slaves! So yeah it sounds like to me she’s fucking condoning it.. nothing I said is false!
@@caldunkin actually the first chattel slave holder was a black man john casor vs Anthony Johnson
Where did most of the slaves to the Caribbean (like my country Trinidad and Tobago) come from? What countries in West Africa?
@NoMarz Colony also don’t forget Congo as well
I know they sent alot of Brazilians to Angola, so alot of Angolan people have indigenous so called "black" south American ancestry. When they say sent to America , they really mean sent to Africa.
Most of the Carribean people were already there, Not from Africa.They are the original people of North and South America . Long live the Arawak, Caribs, and the rest of the American Indians aka black Island folks. They lie to us about our history. Please search you family records and dont believe this crap. You will find that in most cases your people are not from Africa.

Hopefully The 400 Years Of Affliction ends August 20, 2019. The Most High said, “we’d be a Stranger in a land that is not our own and we would be brought over in ships and afflicted 400 Years. Well The Trans Atlantic Slave Trade began August 20, 1619. May our Affliction be put on Esau for 1,000 Years on that very day. Halleluyah!
The transatlantic slave trade was before 1619 bro
YomTeruah 9/30, 10/1/2019
Name Again I understand there was slavery in 1492, 1502, 1525, etc.
Exodus 4:22 I know there about 2 more Feast Days this month. Feast of Trumpets just past on Tuesday, I think.
@@marvin00073
No, what the "christians" call the "feast of trumpets" actually happens on the new moon of 9/30, 10/1/2019-5780 and the original name of the first fall feast is called YomTeruah (Day of Shouting)
I can’t wait until Niiji get their Minds back and stop letting stranger teach them their “His”tory..🤦🏾♂️
We where Already here
I give up most respect to our ancestors that fought for our lives to be free but but we must learn why they went threw this deuteronomy ch28:15-68 in the Holy bible book read it
I don't understand what point your making. How does the Bible connect with African history?
@@UrbanSipfly Read it.
@@UrbanSipfly Smh!
Genesis 15
12 And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and, lo, an horror of great darkness fell upon him.
13 And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed (Deut.28:15-68) shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs (Deut.28:36), and shall serve them (Deut.28:48-50); and they shall afflict them four hundred years (H.R.1242); 1619 ~ 2019 Jeremiah 30 ~ Jacob's trouble
14 And also that nation, whom they shall serve,*will I judge: and afterward shall they come out with great substance.* -Recompense & Reparations ~ 2nd Exodus (Joel 3, Obadiah, Zechariah 2, Isaiah 14, Micah 4, Ezekiel 36, Isaiah 52)
Marianne Williamson 2020? She's the only candidate seriously talking about Reparations. I don't know who just no more Dump.
@@only1dawnadolph 🤣🤣😂
You obviously dont understand that Gen.15:12-14 is taking about the end of the white mans world, and the beginning of YHWH's people ruling the world forever.
2 Esdras 6
9 For Esau (Dan.2:40-45) is the end of the world, and Jacob (Deut.28:15-68) is the beginning of it that followeth.
@@TheZenGarden_ Sheez, your hands must hurt after the unrequested Bible lesson. A few sentences and you went Old Testament teacher on me like you're not educated enough to know what a ? mark represents. I don't need it because I'm well versed in that book. Politics in 2020... because reality and spiritualism exist in one. See u in 2020. Smh.
More Wisdom & Blessings.
@@only1dawnadolph
You dont have the knowledge to know white people politics has nothing to do with the Tanakh.
Your problem is you think the education you get from white people makes you somebody, and you have no idea all they teach is lies.
Your education also taught you to believe the new testament belongs with the old, it does not!!
And your lack of reverence for the old testament proves you clearly lack knowledge.
@@TheZenGarden_ why is the newtestament anyway?
Its not the Slave Trade, it should be called the 'Kidnap trade'. Slave was not a Job, it was something in which persons were forced into.
@NoMarz Colony Then by your logic the term human-trafficking should be slave-trafficking.
@@JunkanooBob99 or human trade and human trafficking….
