World’s Shortest Humans | The Batwa Pygmies of Uganda
Vložit
- čas přidán 15. 11. 2021
- Hello Awesome people,
"Originally, Batwa were forest-dwelling hunter-gatherers based in the Great Lakes region of Central Africa, and are widely accepted as the original inhabitants of the region. As their traditional forest lands and territories fell under the control of agro-industries and conservation agencies, the Batwa became squatters living on the edges of society. The establishment of the Bwindi and Mgahinga National Parks for Mountain Gorillas in 1991 enabled the authorities to evict the Batwa definitely from the forest. The Batwa in Uganda (today) experience systematic and pervasive discrimination from the government and other sectors of society, and their rights as indigenous peoples are neither recognized nor respected".

I also wanna clear something, you’re not allowed to feed the baboons. I only assumed you were because we had guides literally standing by the roadside as we fed them and no one said a thing. It is so wrong.
Otherwise, thank you so much.❤
.
Dont me distb, on
😊😊😊
💙
Why don't they want you to feed them? Serious question thank you
Nice to see a local citizen of the African continent hosting and educating us on the way tribe❤❤❤❤
You’re so kind.❤️ Thanks
The Batwa spokesman is such an articulate person,intelligent and empathetic. The best of luck in your struggle to get back on your land 🇮🇪
Thanks for watching.♥️
THE ENTIRE PLANET belongs to her.. she's INDIGENOUS PEOPLE of this PLANET
I am horrified that you had to move from your home in your forest that is wrong but thank you for telling us about your life
Omg AFRICA is the most beautiful place on earth🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thanks
It is great to have this information shared by an African. Well done and THANK YOU!
Thanks for watching too.♥️
natural people, clean water, clean air, clean soil, clean soul ------ THEY WILL WIN !!!
True
These people are more independant and far healthier than most of the world
Could be true.
Beautiful video. Thank you. Batwa have to get back their forest. Tourists love to meet Batwa people more than gorillas. Batwa people are the heart of Uganda! Nothing can replace the knowledge of Batwa people. Uganda has to stop discriminating their own people.
Thank you for watching.❤
yes. it is too painful to lose so very much. the forest protects the entire planet, we can share it with its gatekeepers. too much knowledge is lost when you inappropriately disturb forest residents. it is a foolish action. maybe Uganda's government does not need those medicines. too late now. how poor the rich are!!!
Amazing people with extraordinary knowledge of Nature and self. I hope the best and most for the Batwa situation.
Thank you for bringing us together with these noble people.
Thank you for watching.💜 Share with your friends.😉
This is a wonderful documentary! I read Colin Turnbull's book "The Forest People" written about his decade with these people in the 1950s...a wonderful book and I'm sorry to hear that they are displaced now. Thank you for informing me! I've subscribed and look forward to exploring your content! May you never thirst!
I should look for that book. Thanks for watching.❤️
The landscape and environment looks paradise like.
The entire Kigezi region is looks so unreal.😍😍 Thanks for watching
Best wishes to Batwa Pygmies.
Thanks
Thanks a lot, Eunice for this lovely, informative video. I look forwarding to more of your productions from Africa. I hope your video will help to draw the attention of the Uganda government to come to the assistance of the resilient Batwa brothers and sisters. Sending love from California.
I hope it does too. Thank you for watching.🙏🏼
So we’ll spoken, bilingual man. Knowledgeable and culturally proud. I agree with his entire statement.
💜💜💜
I love how this guy proud of his tradition and culture with all the challenges they have. Unique experience I would definitely do when I visit Uganda. Thanks for sharing.
Love it so much
Thank you so much for watching.🙏🏼
Lovable people must be protected and respected.
They really welcomed me like their own. Thanks for watching.🙏🏼
Batwa community from what country very interesting
@@EuniceTessgreay
Amen…
Is it legal for that government to take all they’ve ever known away from them? If so how can they just take their homelands?
I would take fresh air, trees and sunshine anytime over a big City. thank you Miss Eunice, you have a beautiful smile. 😊
Thanks dear.❤️
It's really sad to know that they were evicted without any form of compensation, I like there music and culture. Thanks a lot for sharing dear Tess
Thanks for watching, dear.❤
I guess the Pygmies are much smarter than people who live on the land and certainly much smarter than those who live in the cities. To live like that, you have to have very good knowledge of the environment. The forest is their university, their shop, their healing place, their garden, their home. Much respect for the Holy Tree. 🙏🌳🌴
Ms. Eunice, one of the indigenous tribes in the Philippines are exactly like them, 4ft. tall. I can only assumed that those people in the Philippines and these people in your video are all related. The way they live their lives are also the same as of those in the Philippines. In the Philippines, there's a law that protects them and all tribes in the country. Thank you for sharing about these people as they are valued in the Philippines because they are the care takers of the environment. God bless.
Yes, it is possible that they’re related. Their descendants are spread out all over the world. Maybe one day, I’ll be able to visit those ones in the Philippines too. Thanks for watching.💙
Yes, Ms. Eunice, please do. When you do, go to any three of the provinces like Zambales, Tarlac and Pangasinan, because that is where you can find them. Find a tourist information in Manila and they will assist you for your journey. Also, I am sure that your subscribers will increase significantly over there like many vloggers do, because the Philippines is the social media capital of the world. God bless.
You have done a great job, don't just get from them but contribut to their life when going g to those rural communities because you are making money from them too from the vedio post.
@@abbeymic3916 I did. I just don’t do charity on camera. Thanks for watching.
I love batwa people singing and dancing. Beautiful Batwa people culture❤️❤️❤️
The Batwa culture is indigenous, their medicine comes from nature🌿, music🎶 is wow👍🏾. But their own stolen land chaos makes me sad.
Thank you for watching💙
What language were you , and the Batwa speaking ?
Rukiga. They understand about 40% of it
@@EuniceTessWho understands about 40% of Rukiga? Is there a language that they understand 100%?
Yes. Apparently It’s called “orutwa”.
Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful story about this special case !
Thank you for watching.❤
This is so beautifully done. Thank you
Thanks for watching.🙏🏼
I enjoyed watching these these people, they are fantastic human being, love you all.

Thank you for sharing. This technique of making fire 🔥 is great . This is what my ancestors were doing . This secret had been lost long ago with the arrival colonisation. These people are the inheritors of this fascinating technique.

Hey Eunice Tess! 🌍✨
Your video showcasing the incredible Batwa tribe in Uganda, and I am utterly moved by the depth and authenticity of your storytelling. Your dedication to shedding light on the struggles and rich cultural heritage of the Batwa is truly commendable.
Despite having a relatively smaller subscriber count, your work speaks volumes and has the power to create a significant impact. The way you bring attention to the challenges faced by the Batwa and the discrimination they endure is both eye-opening and heartwrenching. You've poured your heart into this project, which shines through every frame.
Your commitment to highlighting lesser-known stories and advocating for marginalized communities is what we need more of in the content creation space. I have no doubt that your channel, though currently with a few subscribers, is destined for greater heights. The authenticity and passion you bring to your work are the ingredients for success.
Thank you for using your platform to amplify the voices of the Batwa and raise awareness about the issues they face. I've subscribed and can't wait to see more empowering stories unfold on ExperienceAfricans. Here's to celebrating the beauty, resilience, and shared stories of Africa! 🙌🔥

This just made me emotional.🥹🥹
Thank you so much for appreciating & taking time to write me all this. Means a lot.🙏🏼
I enjoyed your video. I feel sad for these people being kicked out of their land. Such beautiful people 20:09 . I was very impressed with the spokesperson and how well he spoke english. I wish you had subtitles because I couldn't understand everything. I will subscribe and will view all your informative videos. Lots of love from Canada.❤❤
Sorry about the parts you didn’t understand. Thanks for watching. Love from Uganda.♥️
Woow....this is owesome 🤗

Interesting! 🤔 Informative 👍
Thanks ❤️
This is a great wonderful community they need to be helped to be more informed about the education health and wellness of their own lifes
True. Thanks for watching
Great work
Thank you😍
Very intelligent man
I really enjoyed this video.
My favorite part, the man wanting his child to get an education, to help their people. It's a beautiful dream, let's pray and make it so! Thank you, many blessings.
You’re welcome.❤️
Thanks Eunice for this .
Thank you for watching.❤
@@EuniceTess ever following 😂😂😂
as a Jamaican i hope to visit Africa one day. such happy people not like us in the west who have luxurious thing and is unhappy stress and depress. the government should protect these people.
You’ll love it here when you visit. Thanks for watching.🙏🏼
Very true. I have Caribbean roots but live in the states. I have a beautiful condo and a well paying job but I’m never home to enjoy it. I’m not miserable but definitely overwhelmed. Seeing these people so happy with the bare necessities is culture shock for me. I don’t think I’d survive.
Nice vlogs 😍😍
Thank you❤
The government if Uganda should support them by giving land and settle them once and for all. They are not foreigners pls support them,!
I think so too. Thanks for watching
"giving" no Gov is gonna just give you land because you're special or a everlasting tribe. You wanna help protect these tribes, leave them the fuck alone.
No one is saying they should be given land because they’re special. They should be given the land because they were evicted from their homes.
You seem nice, i like you.@@EuniceTess
Thank you
I only just subscribed to your channel darling as I only bumped on it and found it very interesting to follow as it’s all about nature🙏connecting from the United Kingdom🇬🇧
Thank you so much my dear. Welcome to the family
i admire this durability- wonder what the song near end of presentation is about. beautiful scenery. what to say- it depends on their daily philosophy. here i wish all strength.
Thanks for watching.💙
CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU GUY
Upon what?
Please protect and help the Batwa - they are wonderful stewards of Nature but were kicked off of their land because of international wildlife conservationists. They are considered less valuable than Gorillas to those organizations.
I did my part showing the life they live to the world. I'm open to any kind of help from anyone & I'll gladly send it over.
@@EuniceTessthey came from which country?

Batwa speak rukiga a didn't know thanks for the show
Thanks for watching.❤️
Hey Queen Eunice
Starting a fire from such a small spark is an amazing skill.
True!
The Pygmies also were the first to arrive in Australia before the aboriginals. Yet nearly everyone believes that the aboriginals were here first. There is never ever any credit given to the Pygmies that were slaughtered by the aboriginals.
Very brilliant ppl
True.
Greedy governments removing people from their environment is a crime. The same thing is happening to the Kalahari Bushmen. We need to protect indigenous rights around the world.
Damed colonizers!
What a great video.. such beautiful people.. such a shame that they can’t live in the way that they should have a right to.. I’ve got four words.. set aside some land
Thank you for watching.🙏🏼
I am waiting
Beautiful 🥰😍😍 INDEED
Thank you for watching.
Beautiful, thank you for sharing such an amazing experience. 💚💜
Thanks for watching.❤️
Wooo! iam very excited to see the life of endiginious people, the Governoment of UG must take into account the development of those Batwa as way of perseving their culture.
True. Thanks for watching.🙏🏼
Very well done.
New subscriber and creator from Kashmir India,I really love to know about African countries..
You are welcome here😍

What was the name of the plant they used for Malaria ?
Ha! I’ll have to listen through again & let you know.
It's amazing that the baby never cries.
It does. It was just distracted i think.🤣
@@EuniceTess 👍👍
Hello Eunice Tess.
Nice work. I need to link up with you for a documentary on this.
That's okay. Send me a DM on my Instagram @eunicetess
Yes I would also like to say thanks Eunice great video never seen anything on the Batman people before.❤
Thanks for watching.💙
How can we help the Batwa?
They need a lot of things, but I got one family money for a blanket since they stay in a cold place. You could do the same too or food.
Wah mantaap
???
Thanks are NEVER enough! Something must be done, the land must NEVER be stolen from these special people! Or catastrophe will follow!!! Wake up people, do something!!!
Do sth like what forexample ?
I have just subscibed
Welcome to the family

Thanks for watching.🥰
beautiful! this is better than BBC or natgeo. keep up sister
It’s made my day to hear they’re still alive, I was telling my little girl about the Pygmies the other day,as the schools don’t teach children these facts anymore to busy going on about nonsense,, she wouldn’t believe me,, can’t wait to show her this in the morning
Thanks 💚
Beautiful country… beautiful people❤..Thank you for sharing..It is sad to think that all their knowledge of how to live in harmony with Nature will be lost if the government won’t let them go back to their land..
Thanks for watching.❤️
Beautiful Uganda
Thank you
