Thank you Sis! New Subbie here. You spoke nothing but facts with compassion, empathy and understanding🥰🖤
Thanks dear
Yeah
8:20 that happens everywhere
You are so lucky that these people didn’t get a hold of your visa and withhold it from you in a lot of Third World countries. That’s what they do and you’re screwed. You can’t get out of it either. You literally are stuck there. Can’t do anything about it unless there’s a US Embassy or something but in Russia that happens a lot they do that a lot they’ll take your visa it’s like taking your life.
@@renamanvelova5200Russia has apparently been taking people's visas so they can conscript them into the infantry
Ladies, you were not 'failing to connect' with African culture. You were experiencing it. The culture YOU expected is most likely to be found in Wakanda.
🤣🤣🤣
Good point 😂
This comment is everything 🤣
Some of these Americans think they can just watch “coming to America” purchase a ticket and be gone.
@@svenboi3965 For this reason, I don't understand why some Black Americans feel the need to connect with Africa-we're not the same
This is a perfect show of how culture matters more than skin colour.
I wish more people understood this, of all colors.
Skin color never matter its facial features such nose lips skull etc
@@Charlatanspelunker That's what I say, not about color, but facial features.
Skin color do matters more than culture in African to you people, because when the palm colored people come to Africa, you worship the ground they walk on…but when Black people come to Africa, then you have a problem with that🤣🤣
a lot of black americans think they are entitled to something different.
It’s like an Irish American going to Serbia and expecting to be embraced as a fellow European. Not how it works.
Not even because African Americans are mixed so they are even genetically different from Africans. At least an Irish American is 100% European but in that case, it’s a matter of difference in culture
@@Euro-GaNationalist-hv1onthat’s not always true.
@@Euro-GaNationalist-hv1on
African American is a white liberal term it does not exist, Africans go by tribe then country, they don’t even see rival tribes as their own people but you think they actually think black Americans are the same as them
Explain how it works? That way we will know.
@@jubilantvision2212 the average black american is not fully afircan they have at least 20 to 30 percent european genetic admixture
They think they can connect with people just based on the skin color......as if it mattered.....Can you imagine trying to connect with someone just because they have the same eye or hair color????
It's what they are taught. See everyone on a superficial level and then wonder why people from other cultures don't like it
That's how White People Roll.
@@cashkitty3472 america system has brainwashed them! there is no such thing as black and white lol America made all this up to justify keeping ADOS and other non-whites in their place
As a redhead, I can say that redheads do connect over hair
@@cashkitty3472nonsense. Who ar😢they?
Odd Black Americans believe Africa is the same culture, etc. as America.
Its the delusion bro and its strong. So much taken flr granted on what america provides and is shocked to not be treated like an american would be
@@LateNightRewrites Affirmative action, section 8, welfare and food stamps? You got treated better than the white people.
Their belief is not that Africa and America are the same. BA think they are connected to Africans simply because they’re melanated…but it couldn’t be further from the truth.
They think north Africans are black still lol. They think ancient Egypt was black
No, Black Americans mistakenly think that Africans are their brothers and sisters.
People don't realize how good they have it in America.
✅
Freedom
They make life hell for their black men in america They dont value their men even when they provide, they brag about making 6 figures & in relationship they wants to lead, they can wake up and ask for a divorce saying that they are not happy
America sucks. I will never live there again. I freed myself 20 years ago. She just picked the wrong continent. I lived in Africa for 15 years. Asia is wonderful.
Says who? You must be from some foreign country sayin that.... Cause NO BLACK AMERICAN WITH AFRICAN DECENT WILL EVER SAY THAT. WE PAY FOR EVERYTHING IN AMERICA EXCEPT AIR, LET THAT SINK IN. FOR YOU TO SAY THAT, YOU MUST NOT BE TO HAPPY WITH YOUR OWN COUNTRY, YOU COMPARE IT TO AMERICA AND SAY WE HAVE IT GOOD 😅😅😅😅 YOU A JOKE.
WE BEHIND ENEMY LINES. NEVER FORGET THAT....
You are not 'African-American' you are an AMERICAN.
We are African American. African= race, American = nationality. Who do you think Africans try to fit in with when they come to America? LOL
Well said!
The only Americans are WASPs, everyone else is either black, am Ellis islander, Asian, or mexican
@@kurganmentality What about that great Siberian athlete, Jim Thorpe? Is he an 'American'. People like you do MORE DAMAGE to the fight to save a sane, intelligent, prosperous democracy conserving our traditional values than Antifa ever will.
Exactly 💯
Do people actually think just because they're black and from America, they're going to be given special treatment?? As a white guy from Ireland, I can't just travel to Italy and think things will go smoothly
They're delusional mate. Seen loads of comments like they treat the walkers better than us. Calling white people walkers. Racist as fuck its for thee not for me. Everyone gets scammed in these countries unless you have a head on your shoulders. Sure ye get scammed in Europe the same ffs
Why is a wyt guy in this conversation? No one asked you and neither do we care!
Why? Should be the same for everyone.
@@charlievetta1385 How "it should be" isn't how it is. Don't be idealistic in a way that makes you lazy and ignorant.
Travel with a tour group. It's a lot smoother.
As black Americans we need to realize we’re a different people now. we’ve been out of Africa for centuries. Every nation once originated in Africa but once they migrated out for long enough, they became a different people. We should love and honor our origins but be wise enough to realize we must carve our own path.
Literally I am African who is born and raised in the west. This literally has nothing to do with being African American. I get treated the same when I visit my country and I also speak the language and know the culture.
The increase the price for all foreigners, some of Africans making 40 a month so I wouldn’t mind paying a lil more, don’t see what the problem is
And by force and then u look up and see these people/peoples get free free free cause I can’t do a credit check or a background check so it’s free free money and we the citizens of this great American have been taken advantage of this after our own ancestors built this country on there blood sweat and tears yet we are now get the short in of the stick and others live like royaltie it breaks my heart to even think about what I’m seeing 😢
What is a black American? It sounds so cheap and empty.
Very wise words
This is very very very sad to hear. The white Europeans are welcomed with open arms.
Excited Egypt, lol.
It's because the systems are installed by them and funded by them that is why
@@noeu8414 Which means you can't push your African culture on ANYONE YOU ARE NOT SOVEREIGN NATIONS.
This is the same with America
I have noticed the walkers are welcomed everywhere, and their bad behavior gets excused by BA, but they treat each other horribly it’s insane
I gracefully bow out
I only deal with my sisters who are likeminded, everyone else can get on, and stay on out of my face
That's the second thing that came to mind.
I am a white American woman and i lived full time in Sub Sahara Africa for 15 years including 8 in Tanzania. This has nothing to do with you being black. You have to watch your back 24/7 for being scammed. All day, every day
Much like what the Federal Reserve does, albeit in a very large scale. In the US, scamming people is institutionalized. It is even legal.
Hi, Denmark here. Over several years I spent a lot of time at a place called "Afro-Club" here in Copenhagen, where african and afro-american students spent their weekends. I was there mainly because of the music and the weed, but of course I got acquainted with a lot of black people. And my general experience was that africans from Africa invariably were very laid back and easy-to-get-along-with people, who regarded us white people as weird exemplars of the human race with very weird cultural preferences. Of course this feeling was mutual, African culture is very different from Danish culture, so we had a lot of good laughs at each others' weird habits. While American blacks very often were entitled, bossy, arrogant and very angry people who saw us whites almost as enemies. I formed quite a few friendships among the Africans, even went to Ghana as a tourist to visit one of them, but none among the Afro-Americans. This is of course just anecdotal, but to me it meant a lot: I learned a lot about living a more laid-back life from my African friends, while I learned absolutely nothing from the Americans I met. Cheers from Denmark!
Please know that alot of Black Americans are not like that. Sorry thee ones you met left a bad impression.
African Americans are Americans first. Many have not figured this out. They have their own culture and values and they are sometimes very different from cultures in Africa.
@@stevenleslie8557 Well that's the point, Americans are generally insufferable tourists/visitors who have a complex and entitlement. Stay in good ol' America for your own sake. Your culture and values are actually not the flex that you think it is but I guess living in a bubble has convinced you that they are.
😂 as an American I find this hilarious!
There's a reason why no one has ever heard a white American ask... "What are you going to do for us white folks?" It's not because of any so-called "privilege," it's because white, and even Hispanic and Asian Americans think in terms of all of us. Today's American black community has a tendency to self-segregate from the rest, and then complain that they're being overlooked which often upsets them, often causes them to lash-out, which in turn perpetually feeds the stereotype. There's an expectation of conformance amongst the citizens of any civilized society, so until the chip-on-the-shoulder, defiant posturing thing goes away, I think the majority of black folks will be relegated to watching the rest of society pass them by. I realize there are exceptions, but I'm talking about the elephant here, not the mouse.
I am a black American woman who has traveled extensively world -wide, in Africa with and without a group or a husband/boyfriend and with and without white friends. I can only share my experience in Africa-when I traveled to Senegal with a native, my experience was amazing, same in South Africa, but outside of that I was scammed, harassed, taken advantage of (not sexually)and felt very unsafe. My experience in 4 Caribbean islands was the complete opposite. I was greeted with love, and kindness-like a family member,invited into locals homes for meals, dancing and oral history of the islands and her people. Black Americans, spend your money and expatriate where you are celebrated, treated with acceptance and kindness and can build a community and home. Turn towards the Caribbean friends.
Bout to get long winded I know, but I made that same Caribbean comment in my other comment on this page, in that, if I had a gazillion dollars, I'd move to the British Virgin Islands. There are other options, but the British virgin Islands stole my heart. Not much "culture shock", and sure, they do some things differently, they got a lot of "hustlers" down there and you gotta watch your back like anywhere, but that is the art and science of picking the right Caribbean spot, same skillset as where to move in the USA. At the end of the day the Caribbean is a "Weather Thing", and a more laid back lifestyle. I don't have any real burning desire to leave the USA, I had to find my own peace in my mind right here mentally, not in a new physical location because I just think I'd be stepping out of one country's issues and problems to another.
Nonetheless when I was in the British Virgin Islands I loved the people I met. A young dude delivered groceries to the villa where I was staying, I took care of him and gave him a big tip like $40, and told him to treat himself to dinner. He didn't wanna initially take it, but I insisted, and eventually he did, I guess my thought process is both tourist and host take care of each other. I'm not coming to his homeland to take, I wanted to feel like I was giving and appreciative and supporting local business and his entrepreneurship. He ended up showing me around all the islands, eating good, real local food, we had a great time. I told him he should start a business as a personal tour guide. Met his mother, she cooked me a real Caribbean dinner. I don't think Johnny Cake is native to BVI (Bahamas I think), but her Johnny Cake was on point!!! I nicknamed her "Mama", something we do in the states to an elder we revere. I know enough to know it would be an insult to try to pay her, but I bought the best bottle of Rum on Tortola when I came over, she make some great drinks with coconut water. Though Mama drunk straight shots, she drunk us under the table LOL!!! Never forget it...... (If only all Black people around the world treated each other this way, there's no limit to what Black people can do)
Go with a husband or white person next time
@@dxwallace55strange how some people don’t see this behavior as being a world wide issue. No they see it as “poor us”. People are scamming, threatening and stealing from all and everywhere….. Just go live where you are happy. We gonna deal with humans that lack integrity, character and respect all over the globe!
GO WHERE YOU ARE TREATED BEST. VOTE WITH YOUR FEET AND DOLLARS!
That's hard 2 believe.I bet she's not black black she probably looks bi-racial or something😆🤣😂🤣
Love is not in color of skin it's content of character. Just because your people might have the same skin does not mean they are good.
Love this !! Its sooo true!!!
All people aren’t bad, all people aren’t good. That’s humans in general. Bringing up skin tone is irrelevant.
@@BCNpod Exactly!
Its almost if the desire to connect with the motherland, often delivers a harsh reminder that its residents are the descendents of the same "people" who originally sold them into servitude and bondage.
You aren't escaping ypur oppressor, you are visiting its origin.
It's sad y'all think like this because of certain bad cases like these. There's a lot of African Americans who come here and are enjoying it w/ no prob. It's literally not as deep as u just put it... some africans just are mean & it's not the entire continent.
Good then stay in USA and complain of racism and being killed by cops every other day.
Know this though, unlike in USA where their identity is tied to skin colour, in Africa it is tied to language and culture. So a black American that comes here and seeks common ground based on skin colour alone, would be in for a shock.
I’ve been going in and out of the continent for nearly 20 years. From what I’ve seen they generally treat White Americans better than Black Americans.
True fact.... they do not like black Americans. They find them to be loud, rude, arrogant and expect everyone to accept them. African blacks couldn't be more different .....they are lovely people.
They treat white ppl better than their own kind....
Yup...especially in Nigeria.
Of course that’s why yt people own all of their resources.
And @@west4Bmovementand Ghana is the same
As an American of African decent I have embraced that I am indeed AMERICAN. I want to visit Africa but I have no dreams of moving over there or anything bc I am far removed from Africa.
Good. I completely support that stance. And the idea of some black Americans thinking that they must come to our countries (in Africa) to rescue us is rather annoying and downright arrogant. We are not interested in that narrative. There were no slaves taken from my country to America.
We would rather that you prosper in your country (America), or rather go back to the African countries of your ancestors and help your own people.
Same. It's nice to see but I'm American at my core.
Exactly
I personally feel sorry for a lot of you when America gets into war with other nations y'all will be in the crossfire.
Agreed 100% I’m an American
I am a 64 year old, half Puerto Rican, my mother spoke Spanish, never taught her daughters any of the language, she said she needed it for her and her sisters to talk without any of the kids understanding...what she didn't know was, it kept us from learning the culture, and now none of us speak Spanish, except those who took classes...my point is, little sisters...we are Americans, we are family...we've all come from somewhere...but This Is Us...We Are Americans, and I love you all. YAH BLESS YOU ALL ❤
Self hate right there . That was hatred of the yunger generation but i can bet u dont c it as such. We failncuz we r naively passive n gaslight our ownselves! I didnt get my bia card cuz my mother DECIDED 2 exclude me n my brother (enrolling only my sister). I didnt get inheritance from my grandma cuz my mother DECIDED it was best 2 giv it 2 her live-in boyfriend of many years. Not unlike ur mother n other elders...they made these decisions 2 infantilze u so u could never fully grow n reach ur full potential. Like, what is a mother that 1st offers only struggle 2 her offspring? What is that, really? Got a hint...NOT A MOTHER!
Bless you too!!!❤❤❤
Same with some of my close Mexican friends that live in California. They don’t know Spanish, and said growing up in their family they were told that Spanish was only for the elders in the family, so they never taught the children born in the 80s or after. That was the first time I had ever heard that, because growing up, all of the Mexicans that lived near me spoke Spanish fluently.
@joycelane9355
I appreciate and agree with your comments.
Our Foundational Black American Heritage and Culture is American ‼️
Visiting Africa is wonderful, but to support demons is unacceptable.
YAHWEH💞
“I didn’t know the language so I couldn’t connect”
Wellll did you ever think about learning the language? 😑
To be fair, America basically doesn't require a lot of people to learn English to access our institutions, collect gvt benefits or vote, so my guess is that they thought that it was like that everywhere.
Well it seems like there wasn't enough research done before going over there....something Americans are good at.
@@dgeneeknapp3168facts
There is no single language country in any African country. Take for example here in Kenya there is over 40 tribes with different languages
I learned English first when I came to the U.S so I could communicate.
Please, stop complaining about Africa and keep serving your slave masters.
I can’t wrap my head around being born in a country as wonderful as America and wanting to be an African instead of an American. No I wasn’t born in America. And no I am not white.
Because you haven't experienced the horrors of the racial struggle and constant judgement and stereotypes that comes with it.
Believe me, these diasporans are just looking for a place to be accepted just for who they are
@@vibrantwoman1323 from my minority and color perspective I can give everything imagined or real can be is called racist.
Even an enemy has respect for ones who are strong, determined, honest and true.
But I don't think a lot of them really even like Africans like that. Reading comments here, realising how quick they are to say they're just American and not African & some speak of Africa in a condescending tone after watching this video... like how are you going to think like this and think you could bond/fit in with the very same Africans you see so negatively?. Bruh
You are definitely a white guy
Maybe you should have experienced slavery and you would have a better perspective!
To the lady that was treated bad at the airport, don't feel bad. I went to my own country and was treated the same at the airport just because I live abroad. It has nothing to do with you being foreign. I think it's the corruption these countries are experiencing. It makes people ugly to others. Don't let it discourage you.
Facts. Kenyans in the airport 😂
Why blacks treat bad each other ? Sad, sad. This action should to be removed from position for discrimition.
U get treated bad every where
Why ? In the name of Jesus and our encestors black people cannot get along
I fly often to San Pedro Sula Honduras, Terrible experiences are the norm for many, especially us Black folks. Oh it's bad!
All these “issues” boil down to two things….. Envy And Greed.
Thank you
Global white domination and psychological trauma. This will never change. It was the plan!
The same for Jamaica
So true
Exactly facts
This was a very sweet video with positive intent. I'm enough Italian to call myself Italian American. But if I went to Italy, while I might have a blast, I think I'd really find out how American I was, NOT how Italian I was. I expect this to be the case with African Americans as well. As Americans, we typically see ourselves based on our experience of how other Americans see us. Hopefully the trip brings you a deeper understanding of being American; good, bad, whatever.
You might (most definitely would) feel more American at first, but if you stayed for a while, integrated, learned more about your ancestors or family history, you might find yourself feeling more connected to your roots than you ever could in the US.
(I should say, I have Italian ancestry, family that has lived there for generations, and I lived there for a year, so I'm sharing based on my experience)
True! All Americans are from somewhere except for the Native American and it would be a huge adjustment to go back to any of the Nations especially if they aren't 1st World Nations.
Really? So how many generations have to pass before one becomes a ''native''? After all, those Siberian Americans (AKA ''Native's'') you speak of are also from somewhere else.@@sueprator9314
@@sueprator9314I disagree, some Americans like myself are so mixed we feel no real connection to any culture except American.
Wakanda Culture is not real...... 2nd lady experienced African Culture, but it was not what she expected
What I am not understanding, why do African Americans don't do their Research about the country in Africa their going to. To me that sound what every adult should be doing before even going their and you talk to you fellow African Americans who went their and what they experienced their!!!! Most Americans dive head first into something without knowing what their diving head first into. When you de be into water you test the water first you look at other people swimming, you check the temperature with your toes and than your hands. You look if you can dive their and you ask the one in charge of it is safe to dive head first into the pool and that is how you should go about moving or going to a new country. And it is not an excuse to say oh i dont know anyone who went their. Everything you need to know is on youtube, so there's no excuse to say you didn't know!!!!
I had a coworker whose wife was from Cameroon. She flew home for Christmas just before the pandemic “heated up,” and in order to come back, she had to have a recent negative Covid test in order to board a plane. Long story short, it took three months and more than a thousand dollars to get her out. She was getting scammed by airline employees, immigration officials and even family members (she was the one with the “rich” American husband). Worst of all, they *knew* they were being hustled in real time but had to go along with it…
Why are black americans marrying people from Cameroon & Nigeria? They stay talking mess about black americans. Silly lol
Oh my😢
That's sad. People are so evil sometimes. It's disgusting.
Thee entire COVID was a scam
Welcome to Africa! You have to be street smart and one step ahead of the con ones.
You really hit the nail on the head when you mentioned the importance of…”controlling our own NARRATIVE.” Beautifully stated Sista ✊🏾
I'm not sure if you are aware that they like to tell you what they think you want to hear to get what they want. That was a nice statement, but that is not the actions carried out. It's SAD and I think you should listen carefully to what she saying which is: Do not expect to come here and get a job or grow, but come here with skills to teach us, so it can help the US grow!! NOT once did she give a solution on how to do HER part in preventing Americans from having that SCAM experience, but she said there is something we need to basically expect and adjust to and you gave her the "fist", the negro, black power, afro pick fist? Smh LORD HAVE MERCY! Smh The girl didn't even say: my people do scam, but I don't. Smh LOL We have to stop ignoring what's in plain sight!
Be well and please don't get scammed!
Yes start with Africans selling their own. It’s in the history books .,
"I'm sure glad my great, great, great granddaddy got on that boat."-Muhammad Ali upon being asked about his visit to Zaire.
👍Sho you right
They always told me to eat all my food because they were starving children in Africa so when I went to Africa my conscience was clear I ate all my food
I was told the same thing only more it was more specific They are starving in Samalia" No joke
As Black people all over the world, we must learn unity and respect for each other.
@tubman1868 you’re so right bout this, our ppl forgive everybody but our own…
Start by getting rid of gangsta rap music
Stop referring to people as Black
It'll never happen.
@tubman1868. You are Correct in that assessment! What Black people experience among ourselves is systematically-implanted wherever we go! Thinking-speaking-acting-emoting & perceiving in pre-programmed modes of mutual hostility that were designed to produce the effect to precision.
The lands, the homes, the resources that generated our DNA have been tampered-with for 700 years, at least!! To “structure” conflict and confusion with each other, Sunday school manners with everyone else! That “fear,” that mental Doll Test behavior, is not natural, not biologically-intended. It’s man-made & systematically “works” to near-perfection all over Earth.
Without learning what it is, HOW it works, in all major Areas of Activity, we remain doomed to just keep right on replicating disharmony, distrust, functioning as agents, as scouts, as muppets for the planetary rulers to exploit, to deceive & to dominate-for the “wealth,” we never fight to control. We just want control over each other, as did all indigenous peoples globally, based on the global results. We have all the Bibles. Others have all the land we failed to respect & to protect, collectively. Including ourselves as people living on those various lands.
As long as that system exists, remains rooted, dominates our Mind (collectively), it doesn’t matter what else we “learn.” It won’t be universally applicable, so it won’t be True. Without Truth, Justice & Correctness in Results, no “love,” no “happiness,” no “peace,” can ever be actually proven to exist. They cannot inside Systemic Injustice anyway. Injustice doesn’t co-exist inside Justice; only one of them is True & exists based on universal laws.
I will continue to say Black Americans are solo in this world. We have individual folks that rock wit us but no nation or flag as a whole. It’s just us, we need to stick together. Stop spending and supporting everyone else. Let’s get us right first as a community and only then can we get some new friends 😂
This is the kind of mentality which makes African Americans not adapt to Africa
I've been hearing the "need to stick together" rap since the 60s. Ain't happened. We're too individualistic for any of that. Too many "entrepreneurs." Everybody wants to be a chief but nobody wants to an Indian, or an African.
I agree.
Yall the problem. Facts. Lol the real black people don't even want yall
Of course we are solo. We are the literal slaves that Africans didn't want or were political enemies
My dear Afrikan sister well said and well done. We are not ignorant but cultured people. As Afrikan born and being living in the US for the past 30years I will always think like an Afrikan not otherwise. First and foremost learn the language before going don't just think that they speak English I will be okay. No some to able to communicate basic needs. And then grow from there. One thing about the Afrikan is that no matter where they go they learn the language in the way life becomes a little better experience. For my African American brothers and sisters my advice is to learn the language please. Thank you for the video It is very enlivening 🌍💯🇬🇲 much love
🌟💖
Black Americans are their own people now. There’s nothing wrong with wanting to learn about your roots but at the same time understand we have or own culture and identity now. Africans are never going to accept you as an African you will always be looked at as an American. You don’t need validation from Africa. Be proud to be a Black American 🖤 🇺🇸
I understand the frustration. I was blessed to meet a Ghanaian young man who picked me and my family from the airport. Although he was born in Ghana, he grew up in the US but returned to Ghana five years ago. He wanted to start a business in tourism, so he asked me if we wanted him to be our driver. We asked about the price. I researched the prices of private drivers. The prices were starting at $125 per day. He asked, much less for the three of us. We also agreed to buy gas, which was around $10 to $15 per day. From the first day, he also became our bodyguard 😊. He negotiated all of the prices, even when I was willing to pay.
I am returning next week and may look at staying long-term, primarily because of age and health issues.
I think this back to Africa movement is nothing more than a fad
This is it; returnees should look out for the good ones to assist negotiate things. I appreciate this may not be readily available but we could start scouting for such assistance right from the airports on our way to the father land. Try other Africa state if One fails. Africa is so vast in size, race, culture, population and more.
Let's put in more effort to settle. You leaving in frustration or for whatever reason is what the white folks want. Don't hand them victory over us no more by vexing and leaving the land.
I never heard of anyone with health issues rushing off to Africa for health care
The young man is sitting on a business model and has not put two and two together yet. I know I will be looking to meet.
I@@tonyesq1351I am An African man from Sierra Leone I can tell you clearly there is only one indigenous race in Africa that is the black race,all the Arabs ,whites and Indians are not Africans they came from somewhere else
Why do people pack up everything and move to an African country without first applying to live there on a permanent basis, getting i.e. getting your permanent residency visa? It's so strange to see people move to another country without being a permanent resident. If you find a country you want to live in, visit first on your tourist visa study the culture, the people, the country, find out about their governmental policies, and see if that's a place you could live on a long term basis. No country is perfect, America is not perfect neither are any countries in Africa, but I don't understand jumping out of the frying pan and into the fire type of thinking. Also make sure your religious philosophy gels. It is very, very different to live in the West and then try to move to Africa. America is a melting pot, people of every race, religion and creed lives in America. Africa is very tribal. Yes, you are black and they are black, but there are many tribes. People need to use wisdom.
Many listen to these lying youtubers, selling wakanda and the pan African dream of all skin folks are kin folks when it doesn't even apply in the US. They hide truths with love and brothership, or make their bad experiences seem minor. Bottom line most are not honest and don't have solutions just blame AAs for following their lies from the beginning.
It's called "contempt". They feel that because they are American, rules don't apply or they should be bent to accommodate them.

There's not a spot on the African continent I need to feel nostalgic about as far as uprooting my USA life to move to...
We need to be clear and specific...Africa is not one country. If you got a bad deal be specific about being robbed in Ghana. I am a South African and these things mentioned here don't happen. I've been ripped off in different parts of the continent and it should not happen...some countries are better than others.
I'm a former immigration officer for the US. What people often fail to understand is that moving to a country on a tourist visa is illegal. Yes you can extend a tourist visa but if you're intent is to live in a country on an improper visa that is illegal. So, when you present yourself to an immigration officer for a visa extension he will be suspicious of your intent because we are trained to look for people who are violating this law. This is likely the reason the second woman was only given a two week extension. The length of a tourist visa is generally up to the discretion of the officer. Also, as an former immigration officer I can attest to the fact that many are not nice. However, much of the attitude comes from dealing with members of the public who do not understand the rules and take umbrage at being questioned. The refrain is often they feel as though they are being treated like criminals because the questions are invasive. Well, the job is to determine your right to enter the country. I'm not excusing the behavior. They are public servants and should behave accordingly. I'm just trying to shed insight into why they are assholes. I have been guilty of the behavior on occasion but even when I was not, I received complaints. My best advice is to with the correct visa for your travel purposes. If you do not qualify for a long-term residence visa be warned that you will have to endure scrutiny and face possible denial of renewal of you visa or possibly denial of entry altogether. Oh yeah, and if you are Black, you really need to have the proper documents because, racism and profiling are rampant in the immigration services worldwide.
Wow may as well stay with the oppressors 😮
@@sachiniballads996its the same thing for us in your oppressor land. Even worse

Thank you Charlescharles, your information was very informative.
Very informative. Thank you!
People who are born in African countries are treated horribly by Africans within their continent, so I can only imagine how much worse it is for Americans. We have a long way to go, and I’m sorry for these ladies’ experiences. Black people as a whole do not like one another because of colonization but I truly hope that one day this will change.
Not really because of colonization tribalism existed Even before that so Africans been hating each other for the longest

Black American here. I have been living and thriving for two years on the continent. 54 countries exist. You can NOT generalize the entire continent based off of a couple of experiences within certain countries. My kids and I have been loved on, welcomed, and nurtured here. If anyone is thinking of making that move then I would suggest you do it. One key thing is to learn the local language. That will save you so much trouble and give you the wiggle room to negotiate.

I'm a white American with a wife in Nigeria. I absolutely felt what you said about the scamming. When my wife and I go to the market, she now insists that I stay in the car to keep the prices from getting too high. Even the military and police are constantly trying to get money out of me. As far as immigration, the people in the Atlanta office where I got both my visas are not very nice.

@@abboberg I do live in the States.
@@JevonMusicGroup So do I, but my Nigerian wife lives with me here in the states. Hopefully, you can get things worked out among both (corrupt) governments.
My father was a Nigerian man who never took me (his first born) home.
Despite being told that I did not matter as much as a son, I still wanted to go home. Eventually, I was being told by a couple of scamming family members (after his passing) that it was not safe for me to travel home. Next, I kept finding stories about how Americans are preyed upon and overcharged for everything. It would totally break my heart to go 'home' just to be treated like an outsider and stranger, while going there thinking that is where I belong 😢🤷🏽
They lied to you. Nigerians are welcoming people, we like having foreigners around. Some of the foreigners here even speak the some of our languages. There was also a white woman who was a high priestess here in the West. While our country is going through a rough patch and there have been cases of kidnapping, they kidnap both citizens and foreigners, we are not unfriendly.
A lot of crime rate and kidnapping you have to be careful
The city of Lagos in Nigeria was built by my ancestral “cousins” indigenous Americans that were blackamoors and missionaries and captains of ships. The stories go that outsiders would capture our ships. Eventually coming together to keep us over here and enslave those who stayed in Nigeria. They still call themselves Amaru. They’re from Brazil. Built the oldest and longest standing structures in many areas globally. The hate isn’t unaccounted for.
Just identify few relatives to visit and employ the services of Nigerian youtubers eg: Tayo Aina etc. You will be fine, those guys have a great network and travel globally.

Too often we as African Americans are impulsive and rush in our Continental pursuits. We believe we must be deliberate and well organized. This is why we chose South Africa and are moving sloooowww. No rush. We purchased a property there that we go back and forth to spend time. Learn the culture and the cultural dynamics, the language, what the life is like. Build relationships. Having the residence provides some stability. Really become familiar with immigration process and have things in place BEFORE you go! Even owning property there, we will not entertain settling there full-time UNLESS we already have at least temporary residence in place with VISA that is beyond standard tourist Visa. It takes time.
Because you've been purposely lied to, about being African!
African Americans are not Foundational Black Americans...lets just make that clear!
Purchasing a home is not really moving slow, though.
Americans buying land in South Africa… yet indigenous blacks have no land rights. But who cares right. As long as the land we were born in - our ancestors come from, are the negros who arrived in those waves of migrations before all these other people came - is open for sale - that’s what important ofcourse. What the people of South Africa are subjected to is neither here or there. Congratulations on your sloooow move.
African American? What's that? 😂
Thank you for sharing
I feel bad that as an African that we treat our fellow black people in such a way
It's nothing new. I heard years ago it was said that racism was bad in Africa. Worse than the U.S. Black Africans were on television saying that African Americans were nothing like them. They said they don't claim African Americans. Slavery wasn't only white peoples wickedness. The black Africans sold their own people into slavery.
Y’all not us😂😂
No you really don't !
Blacks are mean
We ran into Africa, not from Africa. So simple it's easy.
I am Indigenous from a reservation. My grandfather was "encouraged" to leave by the government by lies. After you leave for a long period of time, you are not welcome back. Not everyone is like that, but most resent you leaving, no matter the reason. You (ones who left) are a mirror of where they are not. We call this LATERAL OPPRESSION. My black sister told me, "All skin folk, ain't kin folk." When you are disconnected from your culture and want to return it hurts when you are rejected. We have to show love and compassion for each other.
I was supposed to come there to purchase land. I think so highly of Africa. I never thought about this kind of treatment. Thank you for this
The advice to give to American family when they come to the continent is to learn the local African language,thats the best and easiest way to connect
Yet the europeans and asians are treated like kings and queens and aren't learning the language.
@@jozejeaux3962They're not treated like you mentioned. They came with money and with the right visas and paid their bills to enjoy their holidays or invest their money for business. That's the reality you couldn't get because your criminal American government and your media make you believe in such lies.
Nowadays the people you mentioned struggled the most in Africa than you thought. When these people commit crimes, they either run for their lives or faced penalties. Get over it.
Why would anyone move back to a land that sold off your ancestor for little to nothing?
Really? We should get reparations from Ghana or Nigeria ,Don't stop their go across the whole continent, get money from Egypt, Libya..You're repeating Western propaganda..

I have been to Rwanda and Ghana. In Rwanda, they didn't know how African Americans got to America. They thought that we knew about the Genocide and didn't come to help them. I explained that we didn't know until the movie Hotel Rwanda came out, just like they didn't know the details about us in slavery. We need to communicate with each other and compare notes on how we all have been treated. This was a part of their plans to divide and conquer. We have to break that curse and all come together.

The reason why Africans hate African Americans is the same reason why they put us in a hole (Jacob) and sold us to Egypt. They did the same thing in 1619 when we first arrived on the shores of Virginia.
The African American is from the Tribe of Judah. Google...map of 1747 Kingdom of Judah. On top of the Slave Coast you'll see KINGDOM OF JUDAH. That's where every African American is from. Judah is God's chosen people. King Jesus was called The Lion of Judah. Why did the continent of Africa sell the citizens of Judah into slavery? Because the citizens of Judah refuse to worship any religion but King Jesus as their Lord. Why was Jacob sold into slavery by his brothers in ancient times? Jacob was the son who refused to worship his brothers religion. Who physically, mentally, spiritually is Judah? Judah was the best of the best, the creme de la creme of the 12 tribes of Israel. They were the best in EVERYTHING they did. Judah were the ones responsible for the Hieight of ancient Egypt in the world. Judah is responsible for the Height of USA in the world. The continent of Africa know who Judah is and the great sin they did against God's chosen people. I personally believe Africa needs to apologize to King Jesus AND to the African American PUBLICLY before they EVER receive back control of her resources.
I think the main issue is that they don't realize they aren't African. They won't be treated like the natives there.
@MixedChick1 What is African is the real question 🤔 a given label perhaps for we are much more than the race labels provided to us. Are we not more than the place we inhabited? Have we reduced our Godly bodies to words chosen? For if the word African didn't exist, what would they be called 🤔 would not all be the same without the labels? #Actualized Collectively, we are all but " One " we are Love.
Thank you for this! As a diaspora living in Ghana, you are speaking facts! This is my exact experience living here for almost a year!!! To hear a African speaking about it with understanding is bittersweetly refreshing 🫶🏽
I plan on moving to Ghana this year how has your experience been?
Africans aren't Africans they are tribal and on a very small scale you can't just pop in and expect to ever be taken in.
Business in Ghana is horrible. Corruption, coupled with insane tariffs.
Why on earth would you move to Ghana?

Thank you for sharing an insightful and well spoken presentation. Well done!! 🌸
African Americans are not looking for the struggle. Africa seems to be too complicated. Kudos to these ladies for realizing when things are not working out.
Welcome back home, sisters.
Especially since our ancestors built this place up just to have people come here and leech off our work. Stay in the country that your ancestors created for you. Fuck running from white Americans all involved need to get over it and yourselves and make your money and live your life
African Americans need to go to more developed places in Africa.
It's very complicated for black Americans, and notice white people never complain about being scammed out of land, it's a shame. Why is it so hard to meet honest people
Exactly I totally agree I don't understand the whole concept of leaving a 1st-World-Country Like #AMERICA...Just to go way to a "3rd-World Country In Africa" just to Struggle, Or Be "Mistreated Or Scammed" & Hustled!!!!!!!!....WHY Would Anyyy Black Person From The "So-Called-Black-Diaspora" even bother to leave the comforts of America or the West for that??????🤔 Bc America may (NOT) be perfect due to the history of "Slavery & Racism In America" but most Black-Americans DON'T really have anyyyy major issues in America on a daily basis TBH...I know I don't have any real issues in America to be honest so why would ppl leave the comforts of a 1st-World-Country.
Were U atleast have manyyy laws that protect u from being "Scammed & Hustled" Ect On A Daily Basis...Just To Turn Around & Go Wayyyy To A "3rd-World-Country" Where U Have "NOOOOO PROTECTION" AT Alllll. & U also don't know the language, culture, history, or the ppl, u have to be SLOW!!!!!!!!🤦 To do that & then on top of that u still have to deal with #XENOPHOBIC ATTITUDES "AKA/R@CISM OR DISCRIMINATION" FROM THE LOCAL AFRICAN PEOPLE ALSO?????...SMH NOOOOO THANK YOU!!!!!!!! BC TBH U Could of just stayed right in the comforts of America...If ur still gonna have to still deal with allll of the same issues, & problems, in Africa anyway lol. & All while ur also being
#SCAMMED
On a daily basis just bc ur a "Black-American" With An American Accent & u also have. "NOOOO LAWS TO PROTECT U???????🤔" MAKE IT MAKE SENSE?????....I'D RATHER JUST STAY IN THE "COMFORTS OF AMERICA" WHERE I ATLEAST HAVE 24-HR PROTECTION & WAYYYY MORE OPPORTUNITIES...SO I'M "GOOD!!!!!!!! ON AFRICAN" TBH.
Your comment is so sweet. ❤
I am so sorry to hear this, some of us Africans in the continent are messed up. No wonder it is taking us so long to unit. I live in cape town. I went home (Angola) to sort out my documents, I had to pay so much money, is it disgusting.
I noticed that as an African American people tend to resent us for being born in America but it's not even like we had a choice and our ancestors paid the price to live their can't look whites in the eye, lynching's, job discrimination, housing discrimination, predatory loans etc. I noticed that Africans tend to be nicer to caribbeans mainly Jamaicans because they see them as more African and accustom to the lifestyles.
Honestly as black Americans, many of us have stopped being called African American due to the disgust Africans have towards us. Especially the black American men. We are trash on all fronts.
@@thewordsmith5440 you know why that is. They sold us to the white man because they were jealous of our ancestors. The proof is in the pudding. Where our ancestors ended up, became the most powerful richest country in the world. IF we would have stayed in Africa we would have had a modern day wakanda.
@@thewordsmith5440it’s messed up because we fought to end our oppression and make America livable for ourselves. Continental Africans could do the same and fight to make things right in their countries in stead of hating us for being born in the states.
@@DmarquettePainterI get your frustrations and sentiment and they are valid but the dynamic is very different compared to the US. Africa is full of resources but the current system is atrocious to the country. For example France still prints African currency for exchange of resources such as diamonds. I hope the government can have better representation of the people. Honestly, the Africans I have met in person have been some of the most humble and admirable but right now the government doesn't reflect that....just like how Biden's administration doesn't represent Americans. I will keep Africa in my prayers.
Thank you for sharing, I was seaching for people moving back to Africa and their experience. Open my mind a little more.
Every time you say “from the diaspora” my heart grows three sizes.
To be fair though it’s not just in Africa where you get scammed. Almost every country I’ve ever been to, when they realise you’re not from there, they’re gonna make you pay extra. Especially informal stores. Occasionally you’ll meet someone really nice who’ll even give you stuff for free cause they’re so happy to meet someone who’s not from there. But most of the time you’re gonna pay extra. So it’s not an African thing only. It’s a greed thing.
It's exponentially worse in Africa and the poorer Middle Eastern countries.
@@PenskePC17 nope. The worst places are the countries that have A LOT of tourism. Like Thailand, France, Tanzania, Turkey, Spain and China. The Chinese inflate their prices to tourists ALOT. The price of anything can go down by 90% if you don’t just go with the first price. Nothing to do with being ‘poor’. Even the USA inflates prices in tourist areas during tourist seasons. If you travelled you wouldn’t hold this ignorant opinion about poor countries.
@@UltraMella I'm not I t really trying to argue with you as long as you're not perpetuating the nonsense that the west is worse than the rest of the world
Of course, but this channel is focused on AFRICAN countries. Why do people like to deflect from the topic so much (and this latest trend of starting sentences off with "To be fair..." in so many comments, which leads to deflecting) with 'whatabout'-isms? There are already plenty of other channels talking about this topic regarding th negatives of all those other specific countries.

I wish so bad everyone would do that.
May you be blessed with the most kind and loyal friends in your life😊
Very interesting video. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this topic. You have a great outlook on a lot of things. Many blessings to you and your family.
You are indeed the most honest African I have heard on the continent on this topic. I’ve been going in and out of Africa since 1994 and have lived in 3 different countries for more than 1 year in each. Most Blacks from the USA going to Africa have rose colored glasses on and think we will be welcomed back home. But what we all must realize is that colonialism and the system of white supremacy is still alive and well and functioning inside and outside of us unless we have done the necessary internal work to rid ourselves of it. We have been raised on these inferior ideologies and subliminally function from them. I have said before that we need a white supremacy and colonialism detox center on the continent. But in truth, just like miseducation got us in this condition, proper education can get us out of it. We MUST start dialoging among ourselves about the realities of our narratives and create new realities together. It may take generations to get where we want and need to be but we must start now! Africa belongs to all Black people!
Hi am Namibian and I fully agree with you. African Americans really need to stop looking at Africa with rose colored glasses. It's not some kind of fantasy it's a real continent with real growth issues because of colonialism and bad governance. Educate yourself and do research on the country you are going to, understand how the system works there don't just close your eyes and pin point a country on the map coz the beaches are pretty or because you did one nonsense ancestry test online and it said go to Timbuktoo. Go thought the process, read the diff govt legislations to hear how things work and choose the one that bear suits your life style, your expectations, your skills on what you can do to earn a living. When it comes to immigration and papers don't try to take the short cut by having someone do it for you, go through the process yourself if you have to sir in ques then do so because you will learn so much more going to the actually authorities than involving a 3rd party. 70% 3rd party people who handle visa papers will scam you ones they see that you don't know anything about the sysytem, coz most people are desperate for survival.
Exactly this. Speaking from my own experience.
I'm black American and Africa is not my home and never will be. I was born America and that is whom I am..
No matter where Blk go they,will akway be looked down on and to be honest America do not
really care about😢 Blk any country can come over here and they will fo out the way to help them but O think Africa need to welcome Blk from other country to be honest I do,not believe this country is a home for Blk if it, was why are we treated so bad and hates so much 😢 lock in jail longer than anyone else I think it better if you knew someone that live there and they can take you around to get to know the place
and start small don't go there thinking you are better that the way I see and think
Nah disagree. I’m a black American and Africa is not and will never in LIFE be my home. Hard pass. I’d rather move to Japan before I ever try to move to an Africa.🤮
Im a quarter Nigerian, I would never wish to live there. While my religious practices are relatively the same as most of the population, my cultural upbringing is different. I am a national and citizen of the country I was born in. My loyalty lies with the country where I reside. To visit as a holiday, yes I would like too. In every country the cultural practices are different. In Africa every family is a community in itself. The Elders are respected. I was taught that my husband is the head of the household, we honor our parents and grandparents. Many marriages are arranged. I have never had a problem connecting with any of the different cultures within my Muslim community. In respect to being taken advantage of financially, this happens in every country, its not an African thing.
Thank you for this video respect sista blessings upon blessings 🙏🏾❤️
This saddens me so much. I have been wanting to move to Africa, but the stories I hear make it seem like we are not wanted there.
Unfortunately that's a personal matter
Dumb judgement. You guys just enjoy complaining too much. I have never ever in my life meet an African that says they don't want African American in the continent. Nobody has that time

Thank You for giving us this perspective.
I absolutely hate how they go to 1 country and then say Africa is bad, they would judge the whole continent based on a experience from 1 country
Im black American woman who has lived abroad 7 years in 11 countries. I decided not to spend anytime in Africa because I dont feel its affordable, I hear about scams often, the infrastructure isnt designed for remote workers and I know the immigration/bureaucracy is a mess...its a mess in a lot of countries.
As an immigrant/expatriate, I need the path with the least resistance. This is why I have settled for permanent residency in Mexico. I own a business there, cost are affordable, lifestyle is safe, relaxed, people are welcoming and immigration is straightforward.
I love being close to the states to visit family and Mexico is a beautiful country.
I just dont think I will ever visit Africa or live there.
I love Mexico. I don’t like where I’ve been in Africa and I’m pretty sure I’m done with it.
I’m in Texas want to move to Mexico for some time
There are 54 countries in Africa and people are judging the entire continent off of a few experiences in 1 country. This has to stop. I've travelled to 13 African countries and can tell you that each country is different. Culture is different, organization and infrastructure is different, they way they view and treat foreigners is different. So it baffles me that everyone is over here bashing Africa based off of 1 country and a few people's experience. I got residency with easy in Cote D'ivoire. People were friendly, it was a bit unorganized and I had to go back 3 times, but I got it done. Ghana is easy to extend your visa. I think people also have to realize different regions are different as well. West Africa is completely different from East Africa which is different from South Africa. Francophone is different from Anglophone and Lusaphone countries. I had an amazing experience in Africa. I feel more of a connection in West Africa. i see the culture to be more familiar. I definitely have connected with many people. But each country is different. I connected easily with so many people in Nigeria. Ghana took a little longer to connect. Cote DIvoire there is a language barrier so feel the connection is a bit more superficial. Angola loved the people there, but culturally there is a bit of difference. South Africa connected well. Before people generalize Africa, they should travel and get to know many countries in different regions of the continent.
Incredibly well said! Our ppl need to wake up in our spirit and soul to our homeland. It is over three times the size of America and it is the one place where you see governments that are filled with US. I’m with you 100 percent, efficient comment.
If Mexico is so beautiful, why are all of the Mexicans trying to flee to America?
As a West African who also lives in Kenya part-time for the last 7 years you have to at least learn some Swahili especially if you're in Tanzania
@journey2africabeyondmore664 Thank you for your honesty 🙏🏿 God bless you on wherever your next journey takes you!
I'm not black or American but I find your videos fascinating and am so glad they somehow popped up in my feed. I always wondered how people from Africa saw people from the diaspora, and how African Americans,especially those who don't know exactly where their roots are in Africa navigate moving back, language, culture etc. Thank you for making these videos and educating a whole bunch of people, I wish you all the best
THANKS FOR BEING HONEST ❤💯👍🏾🇺🇸
Being black from America I would like to say that to me this was powerful! The way she was able to read into such an intricate situation! It feels good to see we can at least attempt to understand and work out our differences but I know that WHEN Africans Americans and Africans get in sync together the world is Our AGAIN!! 🫶🏾💯🫶🏾

So true...we can't paint one bad experience for the whole continent...Africa is huge and there are so many places to go...and vice-versa like commentor stated...this occurs when we black people travel abroad and have to deal w racism... my bucket list is still to visit Africa.. stay black and proud😊
Lol Africans in Africa are completely different.
African Americans should definitely visit the continent several times before moving permanently. I would also suggest trying South Africa first because it seems the most similar to American culture.
That'll never happen. Africans/Hamites hate so-called black ppl too much like every other nation and had a hand in enslaving our ancestors. Historically, we are a separate ppl...
I went to Johannesburg to visit and we were treated with love and treated us to stay at their homes and invited to dinner I love it a beautiful place
Thank you...we South Africans welcome AA. We have a similar history.
South Africa is Europe in a way it’s more controlled in terms of money usually it’s set price
People need to expect such differences And do extensive research before they venture abroad. Or even 100 miles away for that matter. ( Boston USA )
You are very gracious and so I believe you will be treated the SAME. GOD Bless you beautiful sister. I’m not black but I’m an Indigenous Native American woman and I love that you’re being very hospitable and supportive to people who definitely want to see the HOME COUNTRY. Once again, I appreciate your comments to help new visitors. Your AMAZING. 🙆🏻♀️❤️🔥🙏🏽
I appreciate this woman’s transparency. As an American, I don’t want to go on vacation let alone live somewhere I’m gonna be price gouged, judged or taken advantage of because I’m from somewhere else. A lot of African in the US are like this and I never understood why. Now I know.
There is no welfare State in Tanzania ! The white man in America often tell you African Americans that America is the best place for you ! The welfare state in America is why you are so entitled, this is why Asians, Arabs can go there and not struggle, they plan and organize ...you don't!
They don't want anything to do with us when they come to America, lmao.
So I don't understand how people think anything would change if they went to the Motherland itself.
Africa is a Continent not a country so to say Africans are like this is a total ignorance, different country different cultures different people, there are good & bad people all over the world, make research before you travel, is this the reason African Americans don't like Africans in the US?
@@queenonmasworld she never said it was a country, lmao.
"So" basing that off your "reasoning of" total ignorance was ignorant in itself.
And it's actually the other way around. Africans don't rock with us when they come to America.
All you did was show you're triggered and biased.
First u should grasp the horrors our country has done to the globe before u can really claim being gouged. Ur paying reparations for their stolen resources & over thrown govt actions perpetuated by our govt so it’s not for no reason. That’s why us black folks should do better & fight for the rights of black ppl everywhere not just in America since our govt oppresses black ppl everywhere not just in America.
The 2nd lady, Lala left Tanzania but she moved to Ghana. She lives there now.
All countries are not suited for everyone. Many of these people didn't visit before they moved there because it is very expensive to do that and many of them moved when there were travel restrictions over the last 2 to 3 years.
Also, most of our people moved to Tanzania because of our love for President Magufuli and sadly when we lost him it is said that Tanzania changed.
@journey2africabeyondmore664
That is sad for so many reasons.
this is eye opening. thank you.
Thanks for your work Ndagire.
Oli otya Ndagire. I am a Black American man in Entebbe since November. I have been in Ghana and Cameroon, and once I am recognized as a foreigner, I am charged a higher price. What bothers me the most is that African leaders are asking Black Americans and the Black Diaspora to come back home, but once we do, we are treated as foreigners. Especially with the immigration restrictions. How can we feel at home with such restrictions?
True, I've hearing this mistreatment to a lots of black Americans!
Blk Americans do the same!
Black Americans you are American that’s ok, that’s beautiful,that’s enough I wish we could accept ourselves the way we are. Yes we should travel yes we should track our roots but we must accept that first.
You hear this now and then, more every day. " What's our world coming too??" Sounds like an unnecessary nightmare.
When Africans come to USA, we struggle with immigration. It’s traumatic. But when Americans go to Africa they want to be treated like Royals. Re: jacking up prices, I’m African who went to Jamaica, and the prices were increased for me. Well, I bargained. 😂😂 I think as a foreigner / tourist you have to be aware that it happens everywhere.
Do we really want to be treated like royalty or just not be cheated and scammed?? 🤔
We don't want to be treated like royals. Y'all act like we are royals, or at least people with a lot of money, and up the price of everything. We want to be treated like normal people duh.
I ain't going way across the OCEAN to connect with no other BLACK/CULTURE to be treated badly and scamm. I got enough friends from Africa right here 🇺🇸 . Hell most of them think they better than American BLACKS. I've know them for 3 decades, from 6 countries.
You actually think that African Americans have, control the American government or immigration department. you sound silly.
I need black people all over the world to start embracing each other. Otherwise we will never feel like we have a place in this world.
Thank you... I'm happy to learn vicariously...👍💯
