This fills my heart with so much joy. The original meaning of Jamaica is jama ya ka (which in the Akan language means ‘maybe we are stuck’). Jamaica and Ghana have a lot in common. They even look Ghanaian. Their festivals and food are similar to Ghana’s. I pray the scales on the eyes of the Caribbean people will fall off and they begin to embrace their ancestry. God bless Africa🙏🏾
I must correct you as Jamaica was name by the Caribs
I thought the original was Xamayca.
@Mamsie Sackey that is not true how the name Jamaica came about do some more research,
Nothing to do with common. You are the same people .
@@dvineslim This is the most beautiful day for me today as we are on social media in a civilized conversation about our existence I love it. Well every one of the Caribbean islands were founded by the carib and they name everyone of them Jamaica retain their name as well as caricou which is one of the islands belonging to Grenada. We still have a long way to go or to reach the truth of who we are but we know where we came from and that is a good start.
Ghana gets a lot of love from Jamaica.
One love every time
We are one .

You should visit Ghana and see the Ashanti region.
Those who are brainwashed by the colonizer deny their African heritage and quick to see they are "British".

Jason Denton not true Liberia was form as a way for the usa to return our people back to the continent many return so those who return are
You have to realize that black americans and any black person that migrate to america is constantly being conditioned and programmed. Blacks who migrate to America, e.g Jamaicans, trinidadians, Ghanaians, Nigerians are able to break away from the programming because they are connected to their home countries. Their thinking is very different from a black american. So i encourage black americans to adopt a african country or black country to get themselves unprogrammed.

if you look at a well known Jamaican like Usain Bolt, he looks like a person from Senegal, you can tell his ancestors are from Senegal or Sierra Leone even.
That is such a nice thing to say! Senegalese are lovely people
Malcalm Baxter most likely his ancestry is still not primarily from Senegal as many Senegalese or even Sierra Leone tribes wasn’t taken to Jamaica compared to others. Realistically speaking, bolt can indeed have Senegalese ancestry partially (let’s say more or less %8-10%) however his ancestry is still gonna be from where most tribes were taken to Jamaica which historically hailed from Ghana/Gold Coast and Nigeria/Cameroon/Biafra. However, despite the high possibility of most Jamaicans having Ghanian ancestry today, none is purely or solely from Ghana as Jamaicans are a mixture of many of the aforementioned tribes/regions in their respective combinations. It’s just common for Jamaicans to assume they are from Ghana because that’s where most of their visible culture and history derives. Lastly, I think it would also be subjective to say Usain Bolt looks Senegalese, I live in nyc and seen on many occasions Ghanians that could easily pass for Bolt, in both mannerism and looks. Not to mention I’ve seen many Ghanians who look just like Senegalese and vice versa. Senegalese are just typically taller than Ghanians.

@@jeswazwadi7049 Its a slang for Jamaican.
Maya you made this video just for me. I love everything about this couple. Here is the deal: The British long ago established a Museum of some sort, to highlight their involvement in slavery; and their records state that almost all the slaves they brought to Jamaica, came from Ghana, (I learned this from CZcams actually). That is why, just as expressed by Naomi, I see striking similarities between both of our people. I know without doubt, that none of us could determine each others nationality, without hearing the accent.
I am 67 now, and though I love Africa dearly, and particularly Ghana, there is no sense in relocating at this stage in my life. However, African Americans NEED to relocate. After emancipation we Jamaicans, and other Caribbean people who were enslaved by the British, were empowered to start laying foundations however insignificant, toward independence. Emancipation in the US, was a charade. African Americans have never known true freedom, have never been allowed to breathe, and it continues until today. What has, and continues to be, in America, is a travesty, and an abomination.
I will come back to this another day. Is it enough to declare a year of return? My view is, the majority who would gladly return, are poor and haven't the resources to sustain themselves until established. I encourage Ghana to examine that.
In the meantime, peace and love to my family. Love blackness. Love Africa, regardless.
Steven, your grammar and mechanics are almost perfect! It is quite rare to see excellent grammar, style and mechanics! Clearly you are highly educated or well-read. I know it's random but I needed to say it. Haha
Until Africa gets her act today and define the direction she wants to go by the people coming together to chart the way forward, she can't be of help to her family who desperately need her help. And I'm a Nigerian living in Nigeria so I know what I am talking about.
