African Queens: Njinga | Official Trailer | Netflix
/ @netflix - Zábava
Njinga also gained notoriety during this period for her involvement in the slave trade. As a result of the conflicts during her reign, Njinga's forces took hundreds of thousands of captives, allowing the queen to sell nearly 200,000 slaves to the Portuguese.
,C'etais pas elle mais son frère que va ce suicider apres.
Sache aussi que malheureusement tous ce que l'occident voulais de l'Afrique étais ses matières primaires vomme encore de nos jours sauf que à cette époque les matieres premières étais des êtres humains
@@baisabel5193 Ek dink jy is reg, al wat die Weste nog ooit van Afrika wou hê was hulle minerale rykdom. Daar is ongelukkig een uitsondering hier, China is op die oomblik besig om Afrika harder te plunder as enige iemand anders. so dis nie net die Weste nie. Njinga het self slawe besit, sy was beide 'n slawe handelaar sowel as die eienaar van slawe. Alle ryk mense en magtige mense in daardie tyd het slawe besit. Dit was ongelukkig maar net soos die wêreld gewerk het.

Vous comparez des sujets de basse caste de son royaume,que en effet servait les hautes castes ,comme en Europe
A des gens vendu ,dont l'estimation de vie étais de 6 mois à cause du travaille ,
Les gens de basse caste du royaume du Ndongo mourait à cause du travaille force ?
Les gens au Ndongo ou encore au Congo étais force à se reproduire entre eux ?
Elle a vendu des esclaves aux Hollandais mais le documentaire explique bien le pourquoi.
L'occident à cette époque prenais l'or en Afrique de l'ouest(Ghana et Côte D'Ivoire)
Mais en Afrique Centrale c'était bien des matières vivants que les intéressait.
Les Hollandais ,avant de convoiter les terres étais tous d'abord venu pour acheter des humains ,malheureusement c'est l'histoire ce n'est pas contre les gens parce que ils sont blancs ou autre .
En effet la Chine viens elle aussi par intérêt.elle viens en ami bienveillante dénouer d'intérêt
lol so are you saying Netflix is faking history once again 😅
@@jamesoakley4570 She was literally the biggest female slave trader of all time, as far as we are aware.
Another thing American's like to leave out is that European powers never went to Africa and captured random villagers as slaves. They paid for people who were already slaves, and then sold them in American colonies.
K well after Woman King, I did research before seeing the production - "In November 1627, Nzingha again attempted to negotiate with the Portuguese, sending a peace delegation and a gift of 400 slaves." Oof, so the "no slaves in your kingdom" thing just an overly intense way of saying "you're currently out of stock"?
also, from wikipedia:
"Nzingha also established a lucrative slave trade with the Dutch, who purchased as many as 13,000 slaves per year from Nzingha's kingdom."
Nzinga didn't want her people sold. Whst you people fail to.underatood is there was no pan Africanism, she sold defeated rivals kingdoms that would have been raiding her lands like the imbangala, for example.
@@admirekashiri6651 she owes black people everywhere reparations
All that is a lie, if she was fighting slavery since she was a kid how can she sell people, all those are white people's lie, I am from Ndongo... We know the real history... Europe is afraid.
@@rodochrous She does? We'll have to use a ouiji board to ask for them, then.
This is just a trailer but I can't shake off the feeling that these shows make African kingdoms look more less sophisticated than they are supposed to be. Ndongo sent diplomatic missions across Western Europe. However, the palace and meeting of the king as seen in the trailer looks like something that would have occurred in the Zulu kingdom rather than Ndongo. The Woman King did something similar to Dahomey where Abomey lacked a ditch, and walls of the palace had no bridges, towers and the cannons that were mounted on them.
Either way, I hope the documentary touches on Ndongo's martial arts of Sanguar and how Ndongo soldiers were so agile they could dodge arrows. I hope it also touches of Ndongo's musketeers and their ability to build fortifications.
Angola didnt even have one university until the Portuguese built one for them in the 1960s.
@@Sikandros "Angola didn't even have one University until the Portuguese built one for them in the 1960s."
The Kingdom of Kongo built a college around 1619 in the capital of Mbanza Kongo by king Alvaro III.
@@Niani23455 wow a jesuit college for the worship of non indigenous gods built in the same time of colonialism with slave labor money. Kinda weird how that wasnt built 200 years ago before europeans arrived.
@Jason "Alvaro III? Trying to Europeanize are we?"
It doesn't change the fact that Alvaro III was a Kongolese Black African and not a European.
@@Sikandros "Wow a jesuit college for the worship of non indigenous gods built in the same time of colonialism with slave labor money."
The Kingdom of Kongo were Christians and for your information Christianity doesn't belong to Europe as it even originates from the Near East. It was built in 1619 when Kongo was a free state not colonized. Colonialism came in 1861.
"...built in the same time of colonialism with slave labor money."
If you're concerned about slave money, show similar concerns to the Portuguese Empire within that same period who built an entire colonial empire in the Americas sponsored by slave labor money.
" Kinda weird how that wasn't built 200 years ago before Europeans arrived."
Kinda weird the Portuguese didn't have a university before the North African conquest.
This looks so much like "The Woman King". The story and the setting are very similar.
What do you mean pfff Njinga existed until today her people celebrate and speak of her.
lol that's exactly what I thought when watching this trailer!!!
Africa had many Queens. The woman King may have focused on one woman... but it was a fictional depiction of the Dahomey a group of Warrior women in Benin.
Queen Njinga is a real historical figure. Evidently there is a lot of African history that still shocks people because of the lies the Europeans told to downplay who we were.
@@MsHannahHTI love this reply ❤
The real Nzinga was a monster though
Just like Julia Caesar, like Alexandre and other rulers. Yet they are called the greats
Ok, so this is an interesting one. It is important to note that real human beings are never entirely good or bad but exist within a spectrum. This show does well to paint Nzinga in a good light. It is true that she was a great leader and an inspiration to many African women. It is also true that she took part in the slave trade and sold some Africans to the Dutch. I would argue that it was a necessity in the time for her kingdom to survive and even thrive, but those are still human beings being sold. My point is if you want to look at her as a role model because of Netflix's account on this story then you are right. But, if you want to look at Netflix's account as inaccurate and not portraying the entire story, then you are also right.
You can not judge people of the past by todays standards. If that’s the case then we would need to cancel about half of our founding fathers
@@vmlksm9 You are very right. We tend to view things in terms of our modern ideas of morality that have taken centuries to develop. I'm sorry if my post appeared judgmental, that was not my intention.
Perfectly said 👏 but to be accurate, it wasn't some Africans. There were lots of Africans sold by here , to the Dutch and Portuguese, because she didn't want her own kingdom and tribe to be victims.
She did what she had to do !
@@vmlksm9 it is hard to say exactly where to draw the line because no one is perfect, but I also think the whole institution of slavery is horrendous and even though some of our founding fathers did some great things, I still have a hard time like on Presidents day celebrating because I know they were mostly OK with owning another person and I can't reconcile that in my head. The idea of anyone thinking they own someone is just horrible.
@Somebody LovesYou however u can't just change the historical facts which are happening in today's society
Can I get an African series that doesn’t include any European influence? Just stories from history before colonizing or even African fables?
For real!
Like what? Mali, Songhai? Futa toro? They all have Muslim influence but were exclusively black kingdoms.
I don't like the fact they try to imply "black queens" using the name "african queens". It's not the same. Africa isn't a uniform continent with a single race. Africa is populated by arabs, semites, subsaharian black africans, etc... Hell even between "black africans" there is a lot of diversity of races. People from Mali looks nothing like people from Kenia.
Because theyre talking about the indigenous people, not the latter invaders. And black is a race, somalians arent black. And your kind never complains when only egypt gets represented but now you want to complain about african queens.
from netflix " there are no slave in my kingdom"
in real life
Nzinga also established a lucrative slave trade with the Dutch, who purchased as many as 13,000 slaves per year from Nzinga's kingdom
?
Yes. She ended slavery after that.
Jada Pinkett Smith is not somebody who I would trust writing historically correct scripts but we will see
You would be correct. This is mostly fiction. Njinga was a massive slave trader and most of her battles against the Portuguese and slaving were to keep control of the slave trade herself. Complicated truth would be more interesting and in a way more healing for race relations but are unpalatable in this woke era were victimhood equals power and money.
@@TheForestDemons Nobody cares about what your fragile white bias thinks.
Did she write it? Or just produce it
@@TheForestDemons lol
@@jaelcaribe Executive Producer of the series, it was written and researched by others.
There is a great film Njinga, Queen if Angola. Stars an Angolan actress that also won Miss Universe. Film was made with Angola and Portugal and portrays a sincere (as far as we know) history, which is poltically very interesting. This stuff Jade Pinkett is doing is AMERICAN black nationalism, and trying to create a false narrative about Africa. Nobody should take this seriously or as quality film making (but please watch the 2013 film, which is excellent). What is it with americans always wanting to falsify things to bolster their own self image?
U mean Hollywood celebrities? She is part of the black boule class. Not the grass roots black American class. These are two different groups of people.
Angola 🇦🇴 no mapa.
Salute from Angola.✌🏿
I personally liked the part where she teleported to the mood snapped her fingers and all the actual history vanished from American schools!!!
Well done Jada
continuing to prove
you are as much a talented producer of researched accurate material , friend to your community , trustworthy mother as you are a loving wife to Will!
those still buying Jada's gas lighting really don't EVER go look for themselves and never will!
😂
She is a celebrated child predator that cucks her husband I wouldn't watch anything she makes.
What you expect? she gotta represent her bald headed queens, no matter how terrible this lady’s history was, to her own 💀
America don’t need to teach « black history » because being « black » isn’t american
So you think the actual history is the one you learn in your schools?!? 😂😂😂
Yes Jada Pinkett. Lets make a documentary about a woman who sold hundreds of thousands of our own people into slavery! I have not watched this yet but Njinga was no hero! She was a monster!
😂😂
They like glorifying & misrepresenting actual history with all their big budgets & you fail to get facts right.
Amen!! This show is a joke.
The docu series feels similar to the woman king starring Viola Davis .
In that it's a complete fabrication and is lightyears away from reality?
@@echoactual1776 what do you mean? haven't seen it yet, is it fiction like the crown etc?
And that’s exactly the kind of vibes I was getting
Like all the medival movies about Europe is based on real history.
Troll bye
@@arezoi this is supposed to be documentary, not a movie. Stay sharp
Produced by Jade pinker smith… is this movie about their family ?
I really wish they would tell the true story, and not make it political, yes, she was a fighter but she also sold her own people, people who disagreed with her. From Angola.
Is that not inherently political lol
Yes, she was a queen so it is, but what i meant is that just because she did some good things we can't forget the other things she did which is not that great, many of the storyteller this time don't do research on the full story they sell to the specter
@@coposebomgostos Unless you've seen this already, is it possible they will indeed cover her less noble actions as "king"?
@@breathejuliet390 it's just the fact that most of the writers for this type of movie only show one side of the story, which represents an idea they want to sell, it's never a true story or even close to the truth. I just think that if you want to show a part of history, you should tell the good and the bad, besides i just think there is a lot of slavery movie out there and these people just want to keep people in the past without showing the real history
@@brucesmith7481 let's wait and see, I'm just tried of the slavery movies, black innocent white people bad idea.
Lots of haters from Woman King. Please make more. Keep pissing off the haters!
Quick question; has anyone of these people who make these supposed documentaries ever even been to Angola to see the statue of Nnzinga and see how she looked like or how she dressed at least? Because that ain't it...
Have they read that usually the armies avoided the villages like the plague because of tropical diseases and the few that actually did try to raid the villages were repelled because they lacked provisions, stamina and they were in unknown terrain?
Have they researched that Nnzinga had slaves of her own and established a strong slave trade with all nations around her. She fought the Portuguese so they wouldn't disrupt her politics and business with enemy nations around her?
Have they written how the Portuguese were impressed that she entered the conference sitting upon a slave girl instead of a chair and then she ellegedly left her behind because "she had used that"?
If not then this is simply a historical drama, no different than the Tudors or Borgias. Good for spectacle but not exactly documentary material... For starters there WERE slaves in her kingdom. The Dutch had more than satisfactory exchange of goods with her, slaves included.
She was a formidable opponent and a very inspired leader. I wonder why they feel the need to paint her as the saint who fought for the good of her people only. Why are we so afraid to show those sides of the leaders of the past when it comes to stories like that.
It's America. That's what they do.
@@freethepeople6437 fair point
This was good. Watched the whole series last week!
Ok, I really had high hopes for this movie . Because I have read several books about Queen Nzinga , and watched several documentary,s about here .
Then I realized I needed to dim my expectations because it's a netflix adaption 🤣
I don't mind if the writers are going to be FREE in their creativity , I just hope they don't turn it into some kind of viewer friendly woman empowerment flick . Queen Nzinga was fierce brutal cruel hard , and yes, smart clever and powerful.
Well you already know how it is going to turn out sadly.
@Krasimir Barzilski can't know for sure until I watched it . But seeing how a lot of historical movie's, are being made lately, it's better to have low expectations .
Just watched it. You were spot-on unfortunately 😢😂
@T V 🤣I still have to watch it , but thanks for the info 👍🏾. And yeah, we all ready knew this was going to happen
@@ryufight7987 that’s how I felt watching Chevalier. A greater-than-life that was reduced as an angry biracial
I enjoyed it. My only issue is people always complaining about accuracy when it comes to telling stories of Africans. But the stories of the Kings and Queen's of Europe are always leaving out their faults. Yet u get no complaints
People are always complaining about accuracy regardless of race. Don’t try make this racial or political. This is an African story and Africans have bigger things to focus on than political correctness, wholeness and racism
@@TV-bf1vq nope it's about racism because they romance Europe so they water down the bs to make them look like heroes i.e queen Elizabeth
@@keiajones5278 This documentary makes Njinga look great despite the slavery so I doubt it’s a race thing. But you may continue pulling race cards😊

Just started this and I am very impressed by the acting. It's weird that the Portuguese characters are all very very British though
Some of the Africans have British accents as well. lol
@@DJ-gy7ze There is a film if you want Portuguese or African accents.
Exactly. When Portugal are Moorish as in Morenos. But then again she was a slave trader and is being depicted as queen 😂 what do you expect from this Afro-American Propaganda 😂
@@brixcosmo6849 She was a Queen. Wtf you on about? Do you people ever stop whining.
@@brixcosmo6849she was forced to be a slave trader as many other kings and queens all around africa, so they could keep their kingdoms. Are you telling she was not a Queen?!? Where does it say that, in your fantasy books in schools?!? 😂😂
I love a good fantasy tv series.
You're the biggest FOOL. Nzinga is based on a real person. Lack of education what a pity. Yet you westerners claim to be smart
The first casualty of war is the truth.
Wow another blast on Netflix, which I could shoot to their standard
Nzinga's mother, Kengela Ka Nkombe, was one of her father's slave wives which means there were slaves in her kingdom. They're not treated the way westerners treated slaves, that's the main difference.
But she still sold them to the Europeans and it's in her
@@Bogotaeverything Don't see your point here. I was just pointing out how misleading the trailer is "There's no slave in this kingdom".

Ngola
Ngola was Ngolo but sadly wrote A NGOLA: Strength related.. Strong... And Rugged
The angolans already told this story
@@negroreal6613 ngolo - ngola- Angola
You are full of nonsense there is an Angolan version made by Semba and played by Lesliana Pereira its been out for over a decade pfff...
Why did they change her name from Nzinga to "Njinga" which is pronounced like the word for "stupid/silly/fool" - in my native Swahili - "Jinga"?!!
Wow I am glad you made that point
Her name was Njinga, from the Ambundu people who speak Kimbundu, in kimbundu it means “to twirl”, she received this name because she was born with the umbilical cord around her neck, we ambundu have this practice to name children after the circumstances of time baby was born. Nzinga is a different name, from Mukongo people who speak kikongo, in the northern part of Angola. (I don’t what it means in kikongo).
Njinga is bicycle in my language.
The story has already been told in a 2013 movie. Which also did not include the African ruler being involved in slave trade.
Look at all.the whites wanting to blame african chiefa for.slavery and to not take accountability
True, there are many negative narratives, they did not come here to try understand the true... Many lies., Too many lies.
@@Tudoacaba Well the owners of the history did not find fault why do you force false narrative? Kick rocks
@@cia6566 who do you think are the owners of this history? ... I tell you that I am the owner of the this history. My grandmother Mather of my mother was one of the Soba in Malange in this Kingdom... I speak kimbumdo, and I tell you that most of these narratives are wrong... These are European narratives, most of the costumes we still have the colonization did not arase everything... The Portuguese were not alone they got help of the English, Spanish and Germany... Just search for pink map in Africa...!
All of them African kings /rulers &tribesmen sold slaves to Europeans . They sold their own people to slavery. After they blamed Europeans .
"No slave in my kingdom" = sell slaves outside kingdom
Yes that's what ahe did. She didn't want her people sold but had no problem selling rival kingdoms
It's mind blowing that Netflix cam do this but wants to us to think Cleopatra is black. Why not focus more onuch lesser known rulers like these instead of doing the hundredth Cleopatra movie?
Finally something original about African culture and history, i was getting sick and tired of watching the race swapping of old classic characters
We are all sick of that crap.
Happy to watch this from the land of Njinga ❤ luanda

I wonder if this will be a series that will highlight other African Queens as well. I watched this series and loved it. This was well done, the best way not to repeat history it to actually learn it!! Netflix great job!
Up to a point. It's missing a great deal of facts. It's very good at portraying her fight against Portugal and her fight against them enslaving her people. Yet, there's not a single word about her selling upwards of 13.000 people to the Dutch.
It doesn't really help anyone to share some bits of history if we aren't shown all the facts, positives AND negatives, which is rather common with these docu-series.
@@MrEifer I didn't see her selling anyone in the series. What I saw was her allowing it to happen because she didn't have the man power or the weapons to fight European powers. She fought a good fight but she couldn't win.
@@blackacademy7647 That's exactly my point. You didn't see her selling anyone in the series despite it being documented as fact that she had an ongoing slave trade with the Dutch, selling upwards of 13.000 slaves to them alone, pr year.
The series is very good at showing her in a positive light only, neatly skipping all the unsavory stuff.
🤣🤣🤣
Its not historically accurate, though. It won't help us keep from repeating the bad parts. And history always repeats itself. Nothing is new under the sun.
"There are no slaves in my kingdom" Yes, also there is no war in Ba Sing Se.
thats an actual historiclly accurate line. but in reallity it was more meant to mock the portogese, Like "i dont have any drugs" while holding a bag of coke

She was king of Nothing. She was a slave trader that sold millions of slaves to Portuguese and Dutch Kingdoms. What a Queen.

Just watched it and Holy S*** is good! Idk about the documentary part of it, where they make comments on history. Is it documentary or not?
I haven’t done research on this historical figure or civilization, so if this is based off of facts and truth then it’s absolutely incredible, if that’s not the case then quit turning historical figures into fantasy projects.
Even though they took some liberties I thought that this series turned out better than expected. It was very good and I highly recommend it.
Can you give examples of what kind of liberties?
@@fruity4820 Her role in the slave trade wasn't as positive as depicted the movie. She proposed slaves to the Portuguese in some negociations and the return of previous runaways back to them. She was much more contested by some of her own nobles and lost more fights. In these series she is often presented as unshakable most of the time, losing only a few times. She thrived off the slave trade to rebuilt her army while she became Queen of Matamba. A couple of other things were left out as well.

We wuz Queenz and sheeeeit!
Why is this woman being touted as a warrior, someone to be proud of? She was a horrificly brutal woman. Has anyone even read her true history? It's disgusting this was even made..
All royalties are horrible. Please go say that underneath Queen Elizabeth’s video
Every ruler has their light and darkness
@adriennepyle can
you imagine the colonizers who were kidnapping raping murdering and human trafficking.
My wish would be that we African women frankly wake up and become strong and fighting women 😍black African women who hold their people like our ancestors else

TikTok has woken all of us up!!!!!!!!
seen it in one go.. amazing story. I hope more truth like this will see the light of day
Problem is that it is not "the truth" but in fact many historical errors in it as many people already point out.
@@kaze7781they are bots.
Bots have really taken over comments section
Excellent movie, Excellent cast! Respect to Queen Njinga.
Lol!
Respect the Master Enslaver. Give her a prize for the millions she sold! 😂
Yes, but in the end the Portuguese won
@@lucafranchi1574In the end Africans spread across Europe because of white peoples love for slavery. They were the true victors enjoy your diversity.
Power to non white people.

This video has more dislikes than likes becuase of a multitde of reasons. I am african so i will like it but people do not like to feel like they are being used or decived and if you expect anyone to believe that it was only the women who fought slaver trafikers in that time then your are deciveing yoruselves. Let me tell you this MAJORITY of the slaves that were taken from Africa were sold by Africans.
I come From Nigeria and when i was young before i even knew the im0lications of slavery my father used to tell me how his grandfather would and could sell slaves to the oyinbo (white people) when they needed money. it was a lot harder for slaver trafikers to stell whole tribes as 90% of the time they would get surrounded and they would fight back against them. but eventtually they decied to trade with the natives for slaves . so the natives would take unwanted people and sell them. I should point out that most of Nigeria was heavily divied and their were thousands of small tribes that could very easily be dominated at first (1500-1700)
My great great grandfather 100% sold slaves and so did a lot of other people during his time in Nigeria and Africa
Now im mentioning this becuase the Tribe in this video and the woman king movie both did the same thing they fought well but also sold slaves. Do you know who fought even better for hundreds of years and Never sold slaves. The mossi Tribe. Here is a tribe that didnt even start fighting european slave traders they started fighting in the year 11th century up until the 18th century they fough muslims then christians then eueropeans all in the span of 700-800 years. Yet netflix doesnt think they are worth making a movie about as its not political enough
@NoLabelBrighton yea the problem is african people dont see themselves or their ancestors as slaves so why would any african company make a movie about it
Netflix doesn't Do movies. They by projects, documentaries, comedies,drama. So please do your movie on that Mossi tribe, submit it to Netflix and we'll be watching. And Nigeria didn't exist at the time you're talking.
@@mikegreensberg3316 Mike respectfully your you do not know what your talking about. The name Nigeria may not have existed but the country and the tribes their did.
as for making a movie why would i do that, all the documenteries are made by people in hollywood and are based around poltical agenda for hollywood and america. do you think people in africa care about this documentary. No they do not
@@d3po607 You are just contradicting yourself.And I didn't say tribes didn't exist. So if the country existed, then what was the name?? Was it a country or it was different kingdoms with they rulers, kings&queens,and different borders as today? And I'm astonished by your stong statement that"MAJORITY" of slaves were sold by Africans but don't question why the slave ships were there to begin with. Some humans decided to build those slave ships, structured them to carry as much other humans as possible to exploit, for centuries. None of those ships were built in Africa. Why don't you highly denounce those ship owners or they descendants? You could do a movie or documentary denouncing all they schemes but no, you prefer to scream "Hollywood, America have an agenda", like if we don't know it.That's old news. Question: Why don't you use "Nollywood" to make historical movies,documentaries, instead of always the same themes. Stop whinning about Hollywood; create and invest on an instructive Nollywood.
Wakanda forever 🙅🏼
WATCH THE DOCUSERIES PEOPLE AND STOP JUDGING IT FROM A TRAILER, THATS LIKE READING THE HEADLINES ON THE FRONT PAGE OF A NEWSPAPER AND THINK YOU KNOW THE WHOLE STORY THAT'S BEING TOLD.
This is a nice picture but you know is a who is actor
