Biggest lie is africa the motherland everything Africa has came from the Americas or was Modeled after America, Africa stole our Gold , Cacao , Camels , Pyramid technology but somehow America has most ARTiFACTS but AFRICA is the Mother.....
Id say the original comment is right. Every commercial I've seen on tv growing up, and all the info in history class I learned said that Africa was poor, and not modern like the rest of the world. But they never say that Africa created the outline of how to be a modern human being, africans have been exploring the earth since waaay back before we considered ourselves modern humans. and somehow they consider africans nomads and shit. It's just crazy. 🤦🏿♂️ The Earth is home.. how does that not make sense.
While I can resonate with some part of your script, I feel you were disingenuous talking about Africans not being a part of the slave trade. Every African empire was built on the backs of slaves, and in our interactions with the foreigners, we traded them off for the items they produced. At the feverish peak of the global slave trade, Africans were kidnapping one another and selling them off to slavery. That was the story of Queen Nzinga of Matamba and Ndongo, Joseph Cinque, and many more. You need not infuse lies in your story to make Africa look even more victimized. It's already apparent what the colonialists did.
I don't think he was trying to claim slavery was not a part of pre-colonial african society, just that it was not the same kind of extreme racialized slavery of the atlantic slave trade, and that trying to conflate the two by simply saying "well black people enslaved other black people too" is fairly disingenuous. Of course all empires did and do employ slavery of some kind or another.
@@elowin1691 0:06 literally says that this idea is a lie right here.... ironically, some african kingdoms, like the congo, were very rich off the slave trade, and if they had done anything but trade slaves, and made other economic investments with that money, they could have been a very powerful and long lasting kingdom. they were so wealthy from slavery, and intelligent (as much as you can be about trading human lives) about it too, they would hold back slaves until the harvest season, until europeans were really willing to pay up for them, then release them for the increased prices all at once. with all that wealth, they could have done anything, or atleast tried. and much like how oil states today only do oil, all they did was trade slaves, until europeans stopped buying.
"...the disingenuous idea that 'black people' sold 'black people' into slavery. I frequently speak about this oversimplification as we cannot apply 21st century pan-African concepts to 17th or 18th century peoples. The overwhelming majority of African people back then identified in full with their own culture and linguistic group, and not by skin color or phenotype. So what's been implied by that statement is A-historical at best." You're coming at the human historical phenomenon of slavery with a 21st century, European-influenced perspective. It's one thing to say that slavery existed in wealthy, often capitalistic empires in some pre-colonial African countries. It's one entirely different thing to say that "black people enslaved black people". This concept of "black" was completely foreign to people living on the African continent before people invading several parts of the continent sought to psychologically, socio-culturally, and religiously dismantle the idea of a person living on the African continent, reducing them to subhuman and of a cerain color: black. There was no global, traumatized collective of "black people" who strived to pick up the pieces of the overwhelming thousands-if not millions-of African cultural norms, religions, and languages back then. That is now. And your perspective is now. Take some time to listen to his words before you bring out your thoughts and dilute the truth. The only "victim" of this narrative is the person who insists that history should be simplified because our ancestors "did bad things too". The African continent is too big and diverse for that.

I would like to encourage you guys to look up some of the histories of Africa outside of the slave trade: Kush, Timbuktu, Benin, Mansa Musa I, Queen Nzinga, Shaka Zulu, Carthage, The Masai, The Kandake Queens, The Ashanti, etc.
The desire to find acceptance of other worldly cultures has caused us to be naïve to our own creation. The refusing of oneself has proved to encapsulate our being and until we break free in realization, we are doomed to accept any lie that has been proposed about our identity.

Hi. Thanks for this video. I'm interested in the map of Africa which you have used around 1.24 minutes. Do you mind shating how I can get access to it for my research on Africa. Thank you.
Having grown up in Africa, I can testify that my (previously held) racial inferiority thoughts were rooted from other black people around me telling me whites are more superior. We were raised by our black parents who themselves never experienced slavery or such, that whites were more important, thence we had to watch our conduct towards them. And how we address them was to be different and submissive towards white people. And like you said, its an idea that has gradually dissipated, but its residual effects still linger. For instance here in Zimbabwe, the Shona slang word to refer to your Boss is MURUNGU, which directly translates to WHITE PERSON, and we even use MURUNGU on the blackest of Bosses lol...I have to say, I have no internalized or outwardly expressed hate or malice towards white people, I love them just as much as I love my fellow black brothers cause to me, race doesn't matter, you just have to be a good person. Anyways, love the videos man, very insightful and educative. You even taught me something I didn't know about the Great Zimbabwe ruins. Thanks a lot.
If "murungu" is related to the Swahili "muzungu" (which has the same meaning) then in its origin it comes from "dead person" (as dead people are more pale than living people).
I lived in different parts of Africa and I'm sad to say this is true, the North people have been mythologised and to this day are treated with deference when fellow citizens are treated disrespectfully. Of course sometimes this is a matter of relative wealth or power dynamic and sometimes it is diplomatic, but it's very damaging.
Murungu is not muzungu .word muzungu was first mentioned when vasco dagama returned to malindi from India , he was ask 'where have u been'? , vasco dagama has learned kiswahili before going to India , he answered, 'nilieda muzunguko' so they called him muzungu ,someone who go round the world and come back relating all white as muzungu because they would go and come back .Murungu, mean owner of rungu ,rungu is type of crown club. Or holder shepherd stick
I am of Akan heritage, Ivory Coast - this definitely happened, the Akan went from buyers of slaves to selling slaves as the dynamics in the Gold Coast and the New World changed. Thus, the Akan people played a role in supplying Europeans with indentured servants, who were later enslaved for the trans-Atlantic slave trade.
yeah how else did mali spread so much gold as they traveled to egypt the king dumped so much money into each kingdom on way and they all had economy inflated cause he gave so much wealth away from his slave empire
At the time our ancestors didn't identify with the wider Akan linguistic group, rather with tribes, my ancestors are also Akan and were sold by other Akan (Ashanti and Fante), while Akan culture survives in some ways in our New World culture today, because we came from all over West Africa it's a mixture of various of Western and South Western African cultures.
" indentured servants".... not likely they were captured by almost always black people, enslaved and then sold to whoever had the money or goods or kept as a sign of power.
@@tonyhall3845 how do you get reparations from an entire continent? the Akan are not the whole of Africa. Should Jewish people get reparations from Ireland since the Germans committed genocide?

He would not have had any freedom to teach outside the horrible history book. Lessons about Afrikan history is very well controlled even in college. I had to learn the truth on my own.
I've had meetings with my high school History Teachers and Social Studies teacher why are we only learning about Martin Luther King whom I named my son after. Why do we learn of the KKK in school and not the Black Panthers a white teacher said the Black Panthers were short lived!! I grew up in a pretty racist place where in school I was a part of black population that was less than 1 percent. I would be be called a ninja any day then they would try talk to me cuz I use to be extremely light skin you could see the veins in the side of my head. I was almost raped one night he offered rides then one day the guy jumped out to attempt me to force me in the car then my mom came with my big Dog Apollo. It was night time I was taking a driver's class. There was always something going on. My drawn out point is they told us our African History is too extensive they didn't have time to learn all of our history. So they taught about mostly peaceful black people except Malcolm one of my son's name sake's. It was hard growing up in Lansdowne in Baltimore County in Maryland where they were still burning crosses when I was in school.

Precisely. This video could well be full of lies, brainwasher's lies to make black people hate all other races and embrace materialistic greed, nothing to promote family values or human values.
My mother, Dorothy Cleveland, has always talked about this lie as being detrimental to our people. She’s 77 and will enjoy listening to this video. Thank you for this confirmation
Thank you for sharing the truth about African People. History school books should be reviewed so all children can learn to respect black people and protect them, instead of repeating all sort of cruelties again and again…

SO U ALSO LIKE THE FACT THAT HE LIED RIGHT AT THE BEGINNING TRYING TO DOWN PLAY AND LIE ABOUT AFRICANS ENSLAVING AND SELLING OTHER AFRICANS INTO SLAVERY🤡💩💯
The opening of this video is very odd. You seem to be forgiving or provide an out for the African tribes that captured and sold slaves just because they were a different culture of African tribe. That way of looking at things would also completely forgive/provide an out for the Europeans that bought those slaves. The trouble with trying to separate the tribes into different cultures back then is that the modern western world does not do that. With many movements broadly stating "black lives" or "people of color", which groups all black people together regardless of their origin, and this allows anyone to do the same, including when they we talk about the past when some groups enslaved others and sold those slaves to Europeans. There are some great and fascinating African civilizations without a doubt, however most of the well known ones can't be separated from slavery, like pretty much all civilizations from the past.
@@sullafelix649 African countries and tribes enslaved eachother. And unlike the "black people sold their own kind" is trying to suggest, they did not view these cultures as their own, they viewed them as "other", and being born into a world where being the strongest and most dominant meant the best chances of survival, they enslaved echother. Americans treated black slaves worse than their livestock, as they were seen as vile, not human, or not worthy to be considered human because of their skin colour. There was a hatred and anger towards them, hence the atrocious and torturous acts of cruelty, and hence the enjoyment many slave owners took from inflicting pain and torture. African tribes enslaving eachother was merely just animals fighting for their and their offsprings success and survival. Americans enslaving black people was about racism. That's why it's problematic and disingenuous to say "black people sold their own kind into slavery". As someone pointed out earlier, it's like somebody explaining the holocaust as white people committing genocide on white people. It's a misleading oversimplification of what actually happened.
I'm not sure, but i doubt the slaves were treated as poorly as Africans in America tho. It's like people saying racism isn't a thing because Irish people were enslaved too. Yes... But not with the same amount of hatred. So much hatred that a war was fought over it, and segregation and Jim crow persisted.
No.. "The First Man who knelt for jesus did it at the end of a whip..".. religions were/are the WOMD of the Continent..!!!!

I would like to hear HomeTeamHistory and Thomas Sowell (senior fellow at Stanford University's Hoover Institution) discuss the disingenuous idea that black people sold other black people into slavery. Slavery was an acceptable institution throughout most of human history, and Africa was no exception. Long before the Europeans on the west cost and Arabs of the east cost arrived Africans were fighting each other and taking slaves from each other. In this regard their history was no different than the rest of the world. Neither the Europeans or the Arabs traded exclusively in African slaves. The Arabs were particularly fond of light skinned slaves. The native American nations (tribes) were highly advanced for the time and fought each other and took slaves from each other well before the European settlers arrived. The plight of Africans as slaves in American and the African slave trade is in no way unique to history.
Dude Sowell would absolutely wipe the floor with this clown. Everything HTH does is pure unbridled indulgent fantasy. Completely disregards reality to justify his own prejudice on world history derived from the institutionalized sense of victimhood and the inferiority complex.
HTH just changes the definition of "African" and "slavery." That's how he is able to make the claim. It is extremely disingenuous of him to do this and is completely misleading people.

I wish they would show that Black people were all over north and central America well before Columbus was even born. The dichotomy between the native Black people and enslaved ones from Africa must have been intense.
Incorrect again. Black Indians were only found along costal regions. They never crossed the Appalachian Mountains or the interior of South America. Coincidentally they were most prolific in the Caribbean Islands, the exact place that ocean currents brought Europeans. This would indicate that Africans were the first Colonizers of the Americas by only a few hundred years.

Thank you for this, it is fascinating. I am a white guy from Australia, and we were taught absolutely nothing about Africa and it’s immensely various cultures. I disagree with your idea of the “Biggest lie”. I prefer to think that the greatest lie that is still prevalent in non-African world is that Africa is one place, with variations of a single culture. This is insultingly ignorant. I had to wait for university to learn about the great civilisations Of Africa that Rose and fell as they do. Now of course I learn the proper way, travel there and talk to people.
I’m a black man in America, they ain’t teach us either. Quick question, I heard that people who don’t live in the US, refer it as just “The States” because we aren’t really United. Have u heard anything like that?

I'm from Portugal, unfortunately my country has made really bad things in Africa in the past, BUT at the school we always learn that Africa was a continent with super developed tribes and also strong and smart people
Rafael Paiva thanks, I hope the other European countries will teach their children the same. In certain countries, they learn that Africa is a country and poor people (or starving).

I was working on a project for a D&D game where I was cataloguing real-world historical weapons and armor by region. I found a lot for Europe, East Asia, South Asia, and the Middle East. Then I turned to Africa, unsure if I would find much. I was blown away by the scope of ancient African empires like Benin and Kush. Why do we never learn about those in world history?
Bret Terry, Europeans were involved in elitism and colonialism, and many still are. If they taught those that they were enslaving about the richness of their African cultures, then those enslaved would have resisted more so than they did. Why would the slavemaster teach the slave that the slave's ancestors were intelligent and had an advanced culture? This is also why even white supremacists in the U.S. don't want history books teaching the real history of their "Founding Fathers" and other facts which show how racist and unjust this system really is. 12. czcams.com/video/ActFHRI77vE/video.html (Slavery, Christianity and the Black Exodus from the Church)
You do learn it in AP World History and the more advanced courses. General world history is not so relevant to everyone. You mostly learn your own country, a bit of WW1-WW2-CW and that's as far as it goes.
Yes, those were some of the greatest lied that were told about African people. Good job! Keep researching and tell the truth. We need brothers like you. God bless.
Yo I love history, but I feel like the stuff we do in school is just way too plain & simple. Like we're taught about Hitler & American and European history, but not really about the core origin of black people. So I appreciate this channel for educating people, myself included, about the history of our people and such on. Keep captivating us with this new source of enlightenment. We appreciate it.
This has been the standard in American schools for pretty much the entire history of education. In the Caribbean students are taught Caribbean history first, with the Europeans clearly illustrated as invaders and the Africans clearly drawn as captive and eventually freed immigrants. The teaching of American history should start with the Native tribes and move out from there for a full context, with the wider world history - not just European - brought in.
well, what do you consider the "core origin" of "black people"... is it different from that of other colours of peoples? Cultures may have core origins and defining influences from others... but "people" ... At least I have never heard of a "core origin" of a people.

The dark contenent idea is largely due to the fact that despite having more people and thus inter tribal conflict, they never developed technology. For example at 2:16 the pyramids of Egypt and Stonehenge were built 2,000 BC You can say Africa had tech but no one is arguing that. The point is that they were 1,500 years behind the rest of the world and didnt have a good reason like the Americas where they were completely cut off from development and trade of tech
"Afro-descended people" Dude, all of humanity is descended from Africa. It's like the Starter Town for human civilization. At first glance there's not much there - but after you go out into the world, you ought to remember it fondly once you've achieved greatness.
The idea of the "Curse of Ham" is just as pernicious as the equivalently Christian idea the Men are superior to Women, because God made Adam first, and then used one of Adam's bones to make an "assistant" for him. And the teaching that God doesn't want women to speak in church, or preach. And that "women just tempt men into sin".
@Lynn Ward I can't wait for them to go back instead of always talking about it. What are they waiting for? We should give them the reparations they've been crying for in the form of a one way plane ticket to wherever they want to go in Africa. I think they'd love that and so would America.

they were so wealthy from slavery, and intelligent (as much as you can be about trading human lives) about it too, they would hold back slaves until the harvest season, until europeans were really willing to pay up for them, then release them for the increased prices all at once. with all that wealth, they could have done anything, or atleast tried. and much like how oil states today only do oil, all they did was trade slaves, until europeans stopped buying.
"...the disingenuous idea that 'black people' sold 'black people' into slavery. I frequently speak about this oversimplification as we cannot apply 21st century pan-African concepts to 17th or 18th century peoples. The overwhelming majority of African people back then identified in full with their own culture and linguistic group, and not by skin color or phenotype. So what's been implied by that statement is A-historical at best."
You're coming at the human historical phenomenon of slavery with a 21st century, European-influenced perspective. It's one thing to say that slavery existed in wealthy, often capitalistic empires in some pre-colonial African countries. It's one entirely different thing to say that "black people enslaved black people". This concept of "black" was completely foreign to people living on the African continent before people invading several parts of the continent sought to psychologically, socio-culturally, and religiously dismantle the idea of a person living on the African continent, reducing them to subhuman and of a cerain color: black. There was no global, traumatized collective of "black people" who strived to pick up the pieces of the overwhelming thousands-if not millions-of African cultural norms, religions, and languages back then. That is now. And your perspective is now. Take some time to listen to his words before you bring out your thoughts and dilute the truth. The only "victim" of this narrative is the person who insists that history should be simplified because our ancestors "did bad things too". The African continent is too big and diverse for that.

Hi. Thanks for this video. I'm interested in the map of Africa which you have used around 1.24 minutes. Do you mind shating how I can get access to it for my research on Africa. Thank you.
Having grown up in Africa, I can testify that my (previously held) racial inferiority thoughts were rooted from other black people around me telling me whites are more superior. We were raised by our black parents who themselves never experienced slavery or such, that whites were more important, thence we had to watch our conduct towards them. And how we address them was to be different and submissive towards white people. And like you said, its an idea that has gradually dissipated, but its residual effects still linger. For instance here in Zimbabwe, the Shona slang word to refer to your Boss is MURUNGU, which directly translates to WHITE PERSON, and we even use MURUNGU on the blackest of Bosses lol...I have to say, I have no internalized or outwardly expressed hate or malice towards white people, I love them just as much as I love my fellow black brothers cause to me, race doesn't matter, you just have to be a good person. Anyways, love the videos man, very insightful and educative. You even taught me something I didn't know about the Great Zimbabwe ruins. Thanks a lot.
If "murungu" is related to the Swahili "muzungu" (which has the same meaning) then in its origin it comes from "dead person" (as dead people are more pale than living people).
@@baytep9148 Not sure of any relation to Swahili but I wouldn't rule it out. Interesting stuff.
I lived in different parts of Africa and I'm sad to say this is true, the North people have been mythologised and to this day are treated with deference when fellow citizens are treated disrespectfully. Of course sometimes this is a matter of relative wealth or power dynamic and sometimes it is diplomatic, but it's very damaging.
Murungu is not muzungu .word muzungu was first mentioned when vasco dagama returned to malindi from India , he was ask 'where have u been'? , vasco dagama has learned kiswahili before going to India , he answered, 'nilieda muzunguko' so they called him muzungu ,someone who go round the world and come back relating all white as muzungu because they would go and come back .Murungu, mean owner of rungu ,rungu is type of crown club. Or holder shepherd stick
This is true, there's also Lekhooa in Sesotho, same story as murungu
I am of Akan heritage, Ivory Coast - this definitely happened, the Akan went from buyers of slaves to selling slaves as the dynamics in the Gold Coast and the New World changed. Thus, the Akan people played a role in supplying Europeans with indentured servants, who were later enslaved for the trans-Atlantic slave trade.
so we can get reparations from Africa?
yeah how else did mali spread so much gold as they traveled to egypt the king dumped so much money into each kingdom on way and they all had economy inflated cause he gave so much wealth away from his slave empire
At the time our ancestors didn't identify with the wider Akan linguistic group, rather with tribes, my ancestors are also Akan and were sold by other Akan (Ashanti and Fante), while Akan culture survives in some ways in our New World culture today, because we came from all over West Africa it's a mixture of various of Western and South Western African cultures.
" indentured servants".... not likely they were captured by almost always black people, enslaved and then sold to whoever had the money or goods or kept as a sign of power.

I've had meetings with my high school History Teachers and Social Studies teacher why are we only learning about Martin Luther King whom I named my son after. Why do we learn of the KKK in school and not the Black Panthers a white teacher said the Black Panthers were short lived!! I grew up in a pretty racist place where in school I was a part of black population that was less than 1 percent. I would be be called a ninja any day then they would try talk to me cuz I use to be extremely light skin you could see the veins in the side of my head. I was almost raped one night he offered rides then one day the guy jumped out to attempt me to force me in the car then my mom came with my big Dog Apollo. It was night time I was taking a driver's class. There was always something going on. My drawn out point is they told us our African History is too extensive they didn't have time to learn all of our history. So they taught about mostly peaceful black people except Malcolm one of my son's name sake's.

The opening of this video is very odd. You seem to be forgiving or provide an out for the African tribes that captured and sold slaves just because they were a different culture of African tribe. That way of looking at things would also completely forgive/provide an out for the Europeans that bought those slaves.
The trouble with trying to separate the tribes into different cultures back then is that the modern western world does not do that. With many movements broadly stating "black lives" or "people of color", which groups all black people together regardless of their origin, and this allows anyone to do the same, including when they we talk about the past when some groups enslaved others and sold those slaves to Europeans.
There are some great and fascinating African civilizations without a doubt, however most of the well known ones can't be separated from slavery, like pretty much all civilizations from the past.
quite wrong
@@f_youtubecensorshipf_nazis Please elaborate
@@sullafelix649 African countries and tribes enslaved eachother. And unlike the "black people sold their own kind" is trying to suggest, they did not view these cultures as their own, they viewed them as "other", and being born into a world where being the strongest and most dominant meant the best chances of survival, they enslaved echother.
Americans treated black slaves worse than their livestock, as they were seen as vile, not human, or not worthy to be considered human because of their skin colour. There was a hatred and anger towards them, hence the atrocious and torturous acts of cruelty, and hence the enjoyment many slave owners took from inflicting pain and torture.
African tribes enslaving eachother was merely just animals fighting for their and their offsprings success and survival. Americans enslaving black people was about racism. That's why it's problematic and disingenuous to say "black people sold their own kind into slavery". As someone pointed out earlier, it's like somebody explaining the holocaust as white people committing genocide on white people. It's a misleading oversimplification of what actually happened.
@@f_youtubecensorshipf_nazis Maybe you need to read the comment again.
I'm not sure, but i doubt the slaves were treated as poorly as Africans in America tho. It's like people saying racism isn't a thing because Irish people were enslaved too. Yes... But not with the same amount of hatred. So much hatred that a war was fought over it, and segregation and Jim crow persisted.

I would like to hear HomeTeamHistory and Thomas Sowell (senior fellow at Stanford University's Hoover Institution) discuss the disingenuous idea that black people sold other black people into slavery. Slavery was an acceptable institution throughout most of human history, and Africa was no exception. Long before the Europeans on the west cost and Arabs of the east cost arrived Africans were fighting each other and taking slaves from each other. In this regard their history was no different than the rest of the world. Neither the Europeans or the Arabs traded exclusively in African slaves. The Arabs were particularly fond of light skinned slaves. The native American nations (tribes) were highly advanced for the time and fought each other and took slaves from each other well before the European settlers arrived. The plight of Africans as slaves in American and the African slave trade is in no way unique to history.
Dude Sowell would absolutely wipe the floor with this clown.

@@jonothandoeser “worshiping idols again” you are indoctrinated. You worship and wear a cross, and a MAN, use some common knowledge 🤦🏿♂️
@@xayhovan6814 You worship and wear an Ankh and know not what you worship or even why.
I wish they would show that Black people were all over north and central America well before Columbus was even born. The dichotomy between the native Black people and enslaved ones from Africa must have been intense.
Incorrect again. Black Indians were only found along costal regions. They never crossed the Appalachian Mountains or the interior of South America. Coincidentally they were most prolific in the Caribbean Islands, the exact place that ocean currents brought Europeans. This would indicate that Africans were the first Colonizers of the Americas by only a few hundred years.
Thank you my brother for that information that was very strong something I never know I can appreciate a brother like yourself giving us real information that a lot of us blacks don't even know about may Allah bless you my brother
You knowledge brings power
I grow more powerful each video
Luv this channel
Yet could you answer a single question about the so called facts presented by this video?
@@WhatisReal11
Am I supposed to believe the so called facts written into books today?? History books have been white washed for centuries it’s gotten to the point they no longer want to say the truth anymore they want to call “slavery” involuntary relocation. The truth is out there and I know they American history books hide facts
Thank you. Breaking generational curses by dispelling the lies
love your comment, the york is broken.
So true keith well said.
The truth sets us all free.
Lol he took 7 mins to say Zimbabwe made structures out of stone and Africa supposedly had a "Renaissance" - the same place that has people believe in superstition black magic and cannibals was the epicenter of discovery and enlightenment. Ok
I can not spell these names of people places or things may I please get some sources
Accept yourself for who you are. No more extensions, weaves, multi colored contacts, just be you, not club you, you you.
Never happen, must play the trap game, I'm the poor victim.
wow that chanting song at 45 seconds and at the end is very spiritual i feel my ancestors god bless africa
What’s the name of it
The curse of Ham is the biggest lie
So as the Bible
Just try to understand and PROVERBS 14:15 PROVERBS 15:14
Those are songs I dropped they SHOULD be enlightening Shalom
Ham wasn't curse however.
Ham wasn't cursed🤦♂️
Wow. Not one wasted word. More please.
For ME and I’m 50 years OLD……….THE BIGGEST LIE TOLD TO HUMANITY is with ALL THE TERRIBLE THINGS BEING SAID “I don’t have ANYTHING in my CRIMINAL HISTORY & I’ve NEVER HAD A DRIVING CITATION not ONE in my ADULT DRIVING RECORD. *ON EVERYTHING I LOVE ❤️ SELAH
And I’ve had my license since I was 16 years old. *Never had points taken away!! ON EVERYTHING I LOVE ❤️

Thanks for your continued dedication to education.

Thank you for this, it is fascinating. I am a white guy from Australia, and we were taught absolutely nothing about Africa and it’s immensely various cultures. I disagree with your idea of the “Biggest lie”. I prefer to think that the greatest lie that is still prevalent in non-African world is that Africa is one place, with variations of a single culture. This is insultingly ignorant. I had to wait for university to learn about the great civilisations Of Africa that Rose and fell as they do. Now of course I learn the proper way, travel there and talk to people.
I’m a black man in America, they ain’t teach us either. Quick question, I heard that people who don’t live in the US, refer it as just “The States” because we aren’t really United. Have u heard anything like that?
@@AllPRAIZE All I know is that it is called “the united states of America” not the “United State of America “
@@davidrossi1486 the irony right🥴. Thanks for replying
All we learned in school was you might as well say European History anything about Africa was a afterthought where we came from as slaves even talking about early black people it was just Booker T Washington Paul L Dunbar Frederick Douglass and Harriet Tubman that was about it as far as people of color l learned more about our people after l was grown and from Black History Month and reading 📚 books that weren't around when I was growing up
@@AllPRAIZE That's 1 thing they got right if it is true because we have never been United even in war we use to be separated until recently
When truth is 'INCONVENIENT', choose one or several options;
Ignore it, twist it, or lie.. hmmmmm?
I kept waiting for you to word your points, instead I'm left going "okay, so Africans did not enslave themselves... why? Cause you say so?"
Africans willing to believe Indians, Europeans other countries slave their own ppl but not African ppl 🙄
NO... THEY DID CAUSE U SAY SO
I'm from Portugal, unfortunately my country has made really bad things in Africa in the past, BUT at the school we always learn that Africa was a continent with super developed tribes and also strong and smart people
Is*
Rafael Paiva thanks, I hope the other European countries will teach their children the same. In certain countries, they learn that Africa is a country and poor people (or starving).
big cap
We learn about how we traded goods for slaves and started the slave trade, that's about it
Don't remember the text books mentioning super developed smart tribes
@@miguelpadeiro762 I'm sorry for you
In school I've learn about slavery of course
But I've also learned about the queen Ana Nzinga I don't remember the name of is tribe
And about Amilcar Cabral it's just 2 examples 😉
And about slave trade, yes we made it but we don't started
Slavery was started by Arabs
Very poor education you've had
Why did ENGLAND SAY THEY GOT THIER SLAVES FROM AFRICA? YOU JUST ANSWERED MY QUESTION.
Keep it coming! The neanderthals are raging. I love your content. A different perspective is always appreciated.
I swear.. if you start making longer videos even in the 10-25+ minutes long WE will still watch them..
🙏❤️ thank you for these amazing videos brother
I was working on a project for a D&D game where I was cataloguing real-world historical weapons and armor by region. I found a lot for Europe, East Asia, South Asia, and the Middle East. Then I turned to Africa, unsure if I would find much. I was blown away by the scope of ancient African empires like Benin and Kush. Why do we never learn about those in world history?
Bret Terry, Europeans were involved in elitism and colonialism, and many still are. If they taught those that they were enslaving about the richness of their African cultures, then those enslaved would have resisted more so than they did. Why would the slavemaster teach the slave that the slave's ancestors were intelligent and had an advanced culture?
This is also why even white supremacists in the U.S. don't want history books teaching the real history of their "Founding Fathers" and other facts which show how racist and unjust this system really is.

What is most researched is most described.
You do learn it in AP World History and the more advanced courses.
General world history is not so relevant to everyone. You mostly learn your own country, a bit of WW1-WW2-CW and that's as far as it goes.
Do you live in the United States? Why don't they teach you about the Pyramids and ancient monoliths scattered across North America?
You mean the history classes that 90% of students in NA said was useless and pointless?
It took a lot of scholarly work to uncover the truth about your African heritage, I thank you for your grand pursuit.
Yes, those were some of the greatest lied that were told about African people. Good job! Keep researching and tell the truth. We need brothers like you. God bless.
You don't believe the FACT that they did capture and sell other Africans?
So happy to see your channel grow so well...continue to spread the knowledge 👏🏾
Yo I love history, but I feel like the stuff we do in school is just way too plain & simple. Like we're taught about Hitler & American and European history, but not really about the core origin of black people. So I appreciate this channel for educating people, myself included, about the history of our people and such on. Keep captivating us with this new source of enlightenment. We appreciate it.
Watch Makeda Voletta videos.I learned from her the state of Texas dictates what goes in history books.
I think the schools focus on ww2 because it's European history and recent too and has more relevance to the modern world.
This has been the standard in American schools for pretty much the entire history of education. In the Caribbean students are taught Caribbean history first, with the Europeans clearly illustrated as invaders and the Africans clearly drawn as captive and eventually freed immigrants. The teaching of American history should start with the Native tribes and move out from there for a full context, with the wider world history - not just European - brought in.
well, what do you consider the "core origin" of "black people"... is it different from that of other colours of peoples?
Cultures may have core origins and defining influences from others... but "people" ... At least I have never heard of a "core origin" of a people.
@@stupiddude6824 Black is the essence of all colors!
Great video, but I want to learn or well see more of this "incibity" language out of Nigeria. Closed captions gives me that spelling but google is double founded by the word. You say it at around 3 minutes. Again great video, will check out more.
The dark contenent idea is largely due to the fact that despite having more people and thus inter tribal conflict, they never developed technology. For example at 2:16 the pyramids of Egypt and Stonehenge were built 2,000 BC
You can say Africa had tech but no one is arguing that. The point is that they were 1,500 years behind the rest of the world and didnt have a good reason like the Americas where they were completely cut off from development and trade of tech
This has quickly become a favorite channel of mine!! You're answering so many questions I've had. Thank you for sharing!
This is hands down the best short documentary I’ve ever listened to in content, presentation, research and scope. Good for you.
"Afro-descended people"
Dude, all of humanity is descended from Africa. It's like the Starter Town for human civilization. At first glance there's not much there - but after you go out into the world, you ought to remember it fondly once you've achieved greatness.
The idea of the "Curse of Ham" is just as pernicious as the equivalently Christian idea the Men are superior to Women, because God made Adam first, and then used one of Adam's bones to make an "assistant" for him. And the teaching that God doesn't want women to speak in church, or preach. And that "women just tempt men into sin".
This content was needed. Let the truth be told and shown so we can #MakeAfricaGreatAgain ✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
Africans have blessed the world!
@Lynn Ward People really come on here to race bait smh.
@@tylabarros1506 Lol, I guess you just ignore all the derogatory comments about whites on this channel, huh?
@Lynn Ward I can't wait for them to go back instead of always talking about it. What are they waiting for? We should give them the reparations they've been crying for in the form of a one way plane ticket to wherever they want to go in Africa. I think they'd love that and so would America.
@sultan of wakanda Not true.
