Great interview, Ace. As he mentioned “Black Argentinas still face challenges and hasn’t change too much” Five kids nice. 👍🏼
ACE try visit URUGUAY 🇺🇾 OR CHILE 🇨🇱 if you can let’s SEE HOW LIFE IS THETR 👍
⚽ Argentinas would call Maradona black boy ... Watch his amazing documentary about his life.
why are you mentioning the fact that he has five kids as if that's feeding into a stereotype? people have kids some have more than one. I say that to say this for example at the end of this video Hugo was dancing with this young white Argentinian woman dressed in black. I also got a chance to talk to her and she told me she had four kids, I say this to say this some people like to have more babies than one it shouldn't be brought up as it fits some form of stereotype unless you only paying attention to one demographic
@@ACEDTVL I’m not trying to feed the stereotype way of thinking. I have five siblings and I don’t think, it’s stereotyping Latinos or black at all. Back in the day most people use to have more than one child. If you think my comment was offensive, I didn’t mean it. I’ve been following you for a while and I never meant to disrespect you or no one.
I was born in Honduras, my father was Maya native of yucatan Mex. My mother was a native mix with misquito/African. I grew up in an afrocaribbean neighborhood, we spoke English as our first language, and our schools were English until the government closed the schools and went to Spanish, but later my mother sent us to a private bilingual schools.
We had racism in my case both ways, we hid the fact of our Mayan and African heritage to avoid racism. Now is a lot better, the country tries to celebrate and be proud of the different ethnic groups. I married a Chinese second generation Canadian, my younger daughter had a DNA test done and came out with 22% African, go figure! I was taught to be proud of my heritage and instilled it in my daughters!
Thanks for your videos, they will open many eyes everywhere and hopefully mitigate the racist phobia of many
Thanks for Sharing
People have been hiding their backgrounds since the beginning of time but when does it end? When those brave souls love and accept themselves and stand up in the face of racism. We shouldn’t allow people to shame us for ancestry.
My friend you are not African mixed, if anything your mixed between assimilated indian tribes and possibly the moors from Spain or Portugal and england who where exiled the same year of the conquest... Look it up. DNA test can not tell you a nationality
DNA test can not trace ancestry. Why?? Because these nationalities only existed the past 700 years or so. Secondly you can not trace ancestry without the DNA of your dead ancestors. What they doing is matching your DNA with living ancestors and that's just saying the % of people in that particular location who has genobes like you. That only means that somebody at some point in time possibly migrated through there that doesn't mean let you have DNA from someone who was actually there in your paternal or maternal lineage. It's 0.0002% accurate
Como dijo Facundo Cabral no sos de aquí ni sos de allá!
What a wise 78 year old man. His daughter was so beautiful, feminine. and intelligent. I would love to visit Argentina and meet people like them. This video was the ish.
@@senderosOk7513 Argentina is a racist country towards blacks, there is absolutely no disputing that. Only the ignorant would think otherwise. There are very few blacks in Argentina, and there is a very apparent reason for that.
@@senderosOk7513 you probably should research the genocide of Black in Argentina carried out by the government. This is probably the worse genocide in human history.
Estimado ACE, un simple ejemplo de como impacta este tipo de videos. Hace 1 semana estaba en la cola de una tienda de ropa en Miami con mi mujer, y la persona que estaba atras nuestro (era negro) nos pregunta "what lenguage do you speak" le decimos español, a continuacion de donde eramos?, "from Argentina", 3era interaccion..."porque hay racismo en Argentina contra los negros" y me empieza a mostrar este video en su celular.....Resumiendo, de la nada, estuve media hora explicandole que mi pais no era particularmente racista, que teniamos inmigrantes de todo tipo, tamaño y color, que algunos naturalmente pueden sentir curiosidad ante un negro caminando por las calles de Buenos Aires, asi como la tendrian los lugareños si yo fuese caminando por una calle de Mozambique....creo que al menos le genere alguna duda, pero estaba bastante convencido de que los argentinos odiamos a los negros (un boludez total). Ahora, si yo me acercara a vos en el supermercado, y te dijera porque odias a los blancos, cual seria tu reaccion??.....Este tipo de videos solo van a causar el efecto contrario que supuestamente persiguen. Saludos
No. Estos videos que hace persiguen justamente generar ese efecto
Tambien incentiva la xenofobia que pueda existir en argentina. Porque si los negros extranjeros vienen a Argentina sea a visitar o a vivir con un pensamiento tan racista inculcado por sus naciones hace sospechar que vienen aca a generar odio racial.
@@GuilleArgies Los globalista a buscan generar un impacto para generar políticas de discriminación positiva o sea, racismo en contra de los blancos minimamente y beneficios raciales a negros.
@@celularfortuna Calculo que si, solo quise darle el beneficio de la duda, y darle una oportunidad para cambiar de bando (al bueno), despues de todo nuestros hijos van a tener que convivir con todas estas politicas nefastas...
That the man had to spend almost 4 minutes to explain he is not attacking a country, all because he wants to bring history to light is truly said, but you keep doing your thing bro, let the haters hate and lovers love.
So-called Europeans have taken their lack of humanity literally everywhere on this planet. A thorough cleansing is so deeply needed and the Earth is is current moving into that cleansing. It is time and then some!
Brenell Hornsby 👍🏽💯🎯
not shocked by what this man said their is a lot of anti-Blackness throughout Latin America.which is so sad because a lot of the countries had help from African slaves to gain independence from Spain and Portugal and their influence on Latin culture remains till this day, but Latin peoples of African origins will never be given the proper acknowledgement or respect for what they have done or contributed to Latin culture.
Most Latinos have African heritage to varying degrees. Take a DNA test and you'll see.
you know nothing about Latam, keep your comments to yourself
I think the problem with us, argentinians, is that since we don't have many black people around and since we do not separete people in races we sometimes think ''we can't be racist'' but we do act racist without even knowing it, so it is really important to show these experiences from the people who lives them. First step is to accept our issues, so we can have a better society in the future.
Ty sister we have to start some where, don't we?
Exactly. Your honesty is welcomed.
What you’re saying shows MATURITY
Thanks so much for this great comment. I love you for being truthful.
You are my friend henceforth.
God Bless the ❤ Beautiful Black People in Argentina and and around the we Love from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰❤️❤️
THAT WAS AWESOME!!! Well done, Ace! Thank you for shining the light on our Afro Argentinian brothers and sisters. Wherever we African diasporans have been transported forcefully, they tried to crush our souls for centuries, but still like Air, we rise!!! We are powerful in our resilience…how much more so when we unite (the greatest fear of the oppressor no matter in which country the boats landed! ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽
Let not get caught up in other races accepting us as long as I am a child of God I could care less.
All Africans have not been transported through slavery. African been traveling the world before the Caucausus were discovered.
@@donnacaesar-roberts9472 The world is only for the true Hebrews. By that I'm not talking about the ashkenazi impostors in Israel.
Very informative. Your Spanish has gotten so good and I like that you are representing Black America very well.
I just got back from Argentina and had a wonderful time. What a great culture. I will be sure to return and find those Afro-Argentinians. Great video!
Thank you, you are very welcome.
Wow 78 still got it! He can dance! He's daughter is very pretty God bless her parents. I love their Afro style of dance, it's very unique!! It makes me feel good to see father and daughter representing their heritage. Thanks ACE forevermore.
I love this video, Ace! Hugo and his daughter had so much information. I enjoy ALL of your videos, but I especially love the ones where I learn about the people; some of my favorites are the videos in the Brazilian favelas, your friends traveling through the Colombian border to Venezuela, Blacks in Venezuela, Blacks in Mexico, Palenque, Recoleta Cemetery, The Citadel in Haiti, etc... Thanks for all of your hard work!
My dad who was black dark skin would send me and my sister because we are mixed to look for apartments to rent because he wouldn’t be considered as a tenant due to his skin color . No joke . Very painful experience

The worst part is that most of us in Latin America don’t even know they are black
The Sad part is that, people with a Grade school level of understanding of History, won't know how to Take The Truth.,
In 1492, in the Iberian Peninsula, you had Moros, Judios y Cristianos.,
The People in Latin America, who Consider Themselves Latino.,
In 15th- 16th Century IBERIA. ,
Would be MOROS, MORENOS, MORISCOS, CRISTIANOS O SEFARDIES!
lucas keep trying. You're close
It is not like thay are black. Some may have some black dna.
I'd say more than hald have native dna even if it is not visible...
I am from Argentina. I have a black great grand father and no native blood. The rest of my family tree is spanish italian and basque 👋
@@wololeiro2364 what race is Spanish and Italian?
Much respect to this wonderful man and his beautiful daughter !
I knew that something fishy went down in Argentina history because we do not see black people represented on the media, but I didn't expect it to this bad.
I am from Argentina and i also think something fishy happend because my "sibblings", countries next door, have more african descendents than we have. I belive they were probably killed along natives 'cause they used them as "shields" in different wars (against natives and against Spain). But nonethe less they're still here and part of our society since the begining. Now we have the privilege of having more black pepole coming from Africa as well other latinamerican countries. I REALLY HOPE WE.TREAT THEM BETTER THIS TIME.
And i think and hope this time... Well.. we have 200 years of history that tought us to be better humans. As for myself im in love with meeting different people and since i cant afford to travel across the world i feel very thankful to have different ethnicities everyday everywhere, just right next door.
They killed all the black people in Argentina. It's well known history but hidden.
@@gabydq Years ago my late dad said a black Cuban reported that Fidel Castro made his countrymen participate in wars fighting on the side of Africans. Deliberately put Afro Cubans on the front lines.
There are almost no black people in Argentina, they assimilated, mixed, all ethnic groups, Italians, Spanish, French, everyone. There was no segregation.
I am a Argentine - African American born & raised in Houston Texas. My mom is Argentine and my father is black. Glad to learn about this. I hope the day will come when I visit my cousins in Argentina.
I hope you get to visit your cousins in Argentina, too!
Your mother is Argentinian, and your dad black???? Huh, so your dad Is just black but your mother comes from somewhere. I get it you don’t like to say you are from African decent.
No saben como ensuciar Argentina país libre lleno gente sana
@CanSoU habla de sanidad mental, pero bueno hay que poner cualquier cosa con tal de llevar la contraria
They want to destroy any country in which immigrants all get along. They want to make sure they can still divide us playing on race. The African Americans have been lured into victimhood by those who wish to control them. And because it is easier to make others responsible, instead of standing in their greatness, most of them revel in the role. Argentina is the most accepting country to immigrants in history. Argentines are ALL mixed race by now, racism as a concept is ridiculous and 99% of Argentines would agree with this statement unless they are absolute hypocrites. When they deride what they call “cabezas” they do not refer by this to any color of skin in particular but to ANY person who acts in an uncivilized,disrespectful and selfish manner. The woke nonsense won’t go far in Argentina. Stop trying to introduce it.

I just love that elderly man who still believes in his Africa Ancaster I wish to see more people speak like him.
She’s more beautiful, intelligent and interesting than most of the white Argentinians girls I’ve met. That being said a lot of the white Argentinians that travel around Latin America or abroad, and are young/educated etc, tend to understand the racism of their country’s past.
Similar to young people and progressives in the US vs older generations who are either willingly racist or don’t recognize or acknowledge the systematic racism in our nations.
Im African American.I have been traveling to Argentina for 30 years.I’ve never met Black Folk from there.Thank you for the education.
Because they are very few (today like 1% of the population) and most of them are very admixtured, therefore locally they are not considered black (not even by themselves usually, also because there is not much knowledge about their ancestry), and foreigners maybe will see them just like average "brown" Latin Americans or mixed people.
In this video they are saying bigger numbers (in percentage) because they are counting people that have some significant level of black ancestry but it's predominantly white or amerindian, and even in that case I think that they are exaggerating saying 5%.
I don't know to what places you come here, but probably you noticed that there is a very important minority of "brown" people, and if you pay more attention on them, you will see that only a few look black at some point (the rest are admixtured whites, naturally tanned whites - like people of Middle Eastern descent - and amerindians with or without admixture...). So, obviously is not true that they are like 5% of the population, in that case they would be much more visible.
Dark or phenotypically more regular blacks are a minority into the 1% that I mentioned (although due to recent immigration are much more visible today than some decades ago - especially in important urban agglomerations - and probably in most cases are foreigners).
Kwan King- Why do you travel so much to Argentina? It for work, business and/or pleasure? How do they treat you?
Obviously well, otherwise you do go to any place where you don't feel welcome.
Nobody's trying to count immigrants as part of the senses. this family I interview ancestors have been here since slavery time. This is why I keep the emphasis on generations He was born in 1944 His 6 generation his family has been there since 1764 Before Argentina had their 1st president. you have to be careful when you use the word native because no one's native to Argentina but the indigenous.
@@ACEDTVL -I don't recall reading anything of significant historical importance about black slavery in Argentina. I believe Uruguay does have more history, but Argentina has very little if any history. It was only used as a stopping point for transshipment and redistribution of slaves to other parts of Latin America. Unlike other areas of the new world like nearby Brazil, there was no solid slave economy in Argentina.
they are very few but exist. I would say asian argentines are more common than blacks but one of my friends from my friend group is black( mixed) and he is 100% argentine.

MAN, this is one of ACE's BEST
Her dad is so full of life as a 78 year old...dang!
So i'm black! Proud of It!
@Rafael Moraes too bad she doesn’t care what u think
Ace, thank you so much for making this video! I`ve been always interested in afro-descendat history and culture. And I am an afrodescendent aswell. My mother was born in Estanislao del Campo, wich is in the province of Formosa, in the north of Argentina. She used to tell me about her great-grandmother, Asucena, who was black and had long white hair she used to brush. Asucena was afrodescendat, his parents arrived to this area escaping from slavery in Brazil.
Wow, that 78-year-old man got more energy than me! LOL Man, I can't wait to see the next episode 👍
Thank you very much for this video. To expose people’s realities is the first step to bring light to a problem and find its solution. Thanks again to you and to these beautiful people you had the chance to interview.
and still we rise!!!! love to all the beautiful black people of argentina!!!!!!
Yes! 😁
She is so right about the derogatory cat-calling . I'm Jamaican born and have traveled all over, 52 countries currently. I visited Buenos Aires in 2016 and I had that same experience of being treated as a sex worker. At first I couldn't figure out why random men were making kissy faces and yelling "mami,mami" at me, it wasn't the usual flirtatious appreciation of a woman's beauty. By the third day there I was over it, I took the double decker city tour bus and sat on the top deck, I was so embarrassed and annoyed when the bus pulled up to an area with some construction guys on a roof, they were heckling at me saying things like "mami Brazil?", laughing and carrying on like school boys.
Most women in official places were rude to me for no apparent reason as well.
The entire trip wasn't bad, ate lots of good food, brought home good wine and learned some history. But much like Slovakia or Hungary (went to a bath house and as soon as I got in the water all 8 or 9 people there immediately got out, they looked at me like I was mad or I pissed nuclear waste in the water 😆) I'm not in a rush to return.
I went to Chile for a few days after Argentina on that same trip and it was night and day, people were much more polite and friendly.
Sabias amiga que en Buenos Aires la mayor cantidad de obreros de la construcción son paraguayos y bolivianos, por esa época era común la sexualización de la mujer, le gritaban a cualquiera cosas, luego hubo varias denuncias y en las obras de construcción dejaron de hacerlo.

You were always good, but lately you've raised the bar. I look forward to your videos like weekly shows that end to soon. Keep up the good work Ace.....I see Discovery, National Geographic type docs in your future.
We feel you brother. Be you. The world is very strange. We love you!
Good video, Ace. I'm argentinian and I don´t agree with the things that she says. But it's all right, you are showing the various aspects of the black people in Argentina. If you want to talk someday about how argentinian people see this theme, please feel free to contact me. Cheers and good luck.
No entiendo por qué está gente mintió de esta manera sobre la gente de argentina...
As an argentinian this is so interesting to learn, hope this community have the recognition it deserves in a near future, we love all people here and wish them the best!
As an Argentinian you’re racist
Great, I agree. Now push to get that constitution changed to recognize the Black people living there. And compensate them for the slavery and discrimination. It is not forgotten that Blacks were placed on the front lines to be sacrificed during your wars.
Wow, never heard an Argentinian speak like you, are you sure you from there. How can a place be so racist in this day and age. Que pena por tu país

Great content. Thanks for posting. Good to see people quietly getting on with their lives.
I was born in the UK to Jamaican parents. I am now a senior doctor ( for more years than I want to say😊).

The new generation has a new theory. Vote w/your money and your feet. When all blacks from all over the globe start generating the money in black communities only and educate the kids themselves to stop the brainwashing is when all of it stops. It's just like Democrats being disgusted by the Republican Party and not knowing that they're buying Republican goods w/their Democratic $.
Vote w/your feet meaning leave the city/state/country if they don't appreciate you. Vote w/your money meaning only spend your money where it's appreciated and mainly in black owned businesses. Just to clarify ✌
Negro no es usado como insulto. Se lo puede decir a una persona que tenga la piel un poco mas oscura como apodo. Pero no con connotaciones negativas.
No soy de acuerdo, la palabra negro es una conotaciones negativa porque viene solamente de persona de la piel negra y que significa tambien esclavo.
Si vas a educar, Por qué no enseñas todo? Por supuesto, la palabra negro, podemos usar tanto positivamente como negativamente. Esto es lo que encuentro que ustedes están tratando de educar a las personas sobre la palabra, pero dejan de lado las connotaciones negativas de la palabra. Sí. Se puede usar negativamente tanto como se puede usar positivamente. Por qué no dices eso?
@@ACEDTVL Psicolojicamente es negativa. Porque primero. La gente lo ha usandopara insultar perona con la piel oscura. Por eso es muy dificil para saber cuando es positivamente. Entonces es mejor no la usas, depende de la persona no sabes la reaccion de ella.
@@ACEDTVL Lo que @therrealdarkwing intenta explicar, es que acá en Argentina, la palabra negro o negrito la utilizamos cariñosamente para dirigirnos a otra persona, aunque esta no sea negra, puede ser blanca también. Primero hay que aprender y entender la cultura del país, acá no somos como los estadounidenses, no hay racismo hacia las personas afroamericanas, más bien al contrario, los admiramos(o por lo menos a los de bien). Entiendo que se sientan perseguidos en EEUU, pero acá no tienen motivo de sentirse así, y si se sienten así es por el simple hecho de que no estamos acostumbrados a ver personas negras, ya que son pocos y quizás nos llamen la atención en una primera impresión, nada más. No vas a encontrar país menos racista que Argentina bro, así que te recomiendo que no te esfuerces tanto en buscar algo que no existe.
@@ACEDTVL Creo que deberías recorrer un poco mas el País y no quedarte sólo con lo que ves en Buenos Aires. No creo que nosotros usemos la palabra negro del mismo modo en el que lo usan los americanos. Donde sí se aplicaron políticas segregacionistas hasta hace muy poco en la historia y donde sí era ilegal hasta hace muy poco en la historia el mestizaje. Razón principal por la que no hay tantos afrodescendientes como en otras regiones. de latinoamerica. Además de que en Buenos Aires la mayoría de las persoanas son descendientes de españoles e italianos. pero hay otras regionenes donde hubo más mestizaje con la población nativa y otras con inmigracion Checa, Polaca, etc. te recomendaría que visites la fiesta nacional del inmigrante en Misiones. creo que se realiza en Septiembre. o Corrientes durante los carnavales de febrero. No nos avergüenza ser una mezcla de muchas cosas. En el NEA incluso hay personas que aún hablan el idioma guaraní. una lengua de los habiantes originarios. Pero obviamente. gente estúpida hay en todas partes puede haber personas que lo usen como un insulto. pero como con toda palabra en nuestra región todo depende del tono con el que se diga. Particularmente en Corrientes el 6 de enero se celebra a San Baltazar un santo negro.
Thank you for this video. Fantastic!!!
This video was incredible. I read about the history of Afro-Argentinians back in college. I'm glad Hugo and his daughter(😍) cleared up the history. Also, Ace it's "colorism" not classism when people of darker skin are discriminated against for the complexion.
Also considered a caste system.
Exactly, and they discriminate against African hair texture as well . When you come with dark skin or light skin and your hair texture is kinky you are treated differently. If you are brown skin with straight hair you are still treated better than light skin with kinky hair. Rise up people of African and African descent . Wear you hair and be proud. Ase'o
Menem was a 2 term president and he did not look very white european.... Racism can go both ways
Great ! I'm learning a lot through this content. I never knew " colorism" was the most approrpiate term. Thank you !
In my 17 years living in Buenos Aires I've witnessed less racism than I did in 1 year in Los Angeles, CA (my home city), the supposed progressive heaven.
Argentina has much less of a racism problem (specially against african descendants) than the United states due to the segregationist laws the US had until the 60s.
With that Said i think in this case (racism against african descendants) personal experiences would be better given by someone black.
its not like in argentina racism towards blacks doesn't exist, but argentina being an specially racist country i do think Is mostly a myth, specially when the United states is one of the most racist countries in the world along with southafrica and Israel.
It's an own decision issue in la, people take anything as racism
I respectfully disagree with you the most racists nation in Latin America is Argentina
Damn this is obvious, you are white
@@ahmedalzubairi3218 How so? Did you visit Argentina and suffer prejudice from argentines? They use the term “negro” (black) to refer to someone very casually, but they intend it as a synonym to “buddy”.

My greatgrand farher was black. Proud of It!❤️
Ace, yet another informative professionally done video interview. Well done.
The content was provocatively disturbing at times, but reality is like that. Argentina insists on a culture of racist marginalization still needing oppressive validation of their existence. How sad that enlightenment eludes them. However, I’m confident despite generational indoctrination, common sense will ultimately prevail. For a country to have reduced an indigenous population by over 80% is beyond barbaric. It’s well worth the time to appeal on an international scale the crimes against humanity in Argentina. The lack of empathy emanating from many of the responses only strengthens the argument of oppression in that country and begs further investigation. Governments must be held accountable for their intolerance to marginalized citizens.
What a phenomenal in-depth discourse with Mr. Hugo who resembles Barack Obama and Ms. Milien, his splendid daughter, about racism and the eradication of Afro- Argentina his/herstory. I was astonished how Milien was picked on due to her race. Racism is a global phenomenon. Ace- I immensely enjoyed this documentary and interviews.
In the schools they represent what was a reality in colonial Argentina, there were slaves and they were generally street vendors, they are acts with total respect, in no way is it about offending but rather portraying the reality of the time, and I never saw that portray them in a mocking tone. As for racism, there is no doubt that there was and is, but it is not exclusively against an ethnic group, but rather with social strata, and based on statistics, we are one of the least racist countries in the world. Another clarification with what the lawyer says, here in Argentina saying black is not only negative, most of the time it is affectionate and is used with close people. He also lies and exaggerates that housewives are black, education from kindergarten to university is free and whether from any social class they have the opportunity to graduate from a university career, he also lies that people of color have salaries minors only because of their skin color, totally false, it is not true that they are fired because of their skin color, otherwise they would not be hired in the first place, the rights are equal for everyone, no one fires without having any consequence, there are laws that protect to EVERYONE, regardless of ethnicity. Being a lawyer, she does not know what the constitution says, "Foreigners enjoy all the civil rights of citizens in the territory of the Nation; they can exercise their industry, commerce and profession, they are not obliged to admit citizenship, nor to pay extraordinary forced contributions "Tell me where it says Europe...? She is middle class, she is a professional and says that she has fewer rights, fewer opportunities because of her skin color? It can be seen at the end, when he says that Alberto Fernandez is a good president and that they have more rights... Just by remembering what he said in a conference “The Mexicans came from the Indians, the Brazilians from the jungle, but the Argentines from the boats”, it is very obvious that he has no objectivity...
@@LythoERM Also-the President's comments were racist and xenophobic. " Brazilians emerged from the jungle." He was trying to fraternizewith the Spain Prime Minister and made a vast blunder.
I am African and I cried all through this video. No anger, just sadness. Even more telling when some Argentinians in the comment section want to attempt to downplay the seriousness of this video and the experience of these Afro Argentinians. Thank you ACE for these videos.
Y bueno jodete, quien te mando a nacer negra y ofenderte por todo?🤷♂️ argentina no tiene culpa que los negros no tengan autoestima y se ofendan por todo jajaja ahora falta que critiques nuestra carne por dejarla bien cocinada🤡🤦♂️
If Argentina doesn't recognize afro Argentinian we need the African union to intervene . Pan Africanist, please our people are still suffering blacks are not squatters on this planetll
@@Shifinline999 Argentina is the blame, in Argentina. You sound crazy, after participating in the enslavement of the darkest of peoples.
Your videos have evolved so much since I first subscribed years ago. Amazing to see the growth. This was fantastic.
Having dealt with people from Argentina in the United States I did not find any of this information surprising. I've found that Argentinians that I have communicated with have had a false sense of superiority that I could not fathom.
@MD They have Spanish and Italian heritage
I’m from Argentina & I am half Italian, half Spanish (Basque).
So sorry to hear you had some negative experiences. Not all of us feel or believe we’re superior. Bueno. 🙏🤍
So true how they feel superior.
It makes me go crazy the hate blacks in earth get. One day black will be the number 1 power on earth. We will be untouchable
I like most people had no issue with anyone no matter their colour but when a group starts identifying as 'black' and different and that you are not black and therefore racist, this gets people's backs up. We're not responsible fo4 slavery 300 years ago or what happens in the US. The world has 6 billion people, the US is a small part. Don't push your problems and close mindedness based around skin colour to the rest of the world. The true racists are those who bang on about people's colour.
You're right about that Christ is a negro man from the tribe of Judah who will rule this earth soon

@@aldozilli1293 you can't gaslight anybody here
This was very enlightening, thank you brotha.
Great video Ace , there is so much culture & connection to be discovered.
Ace brother dropped a lot, it’s amazing of our history I would like to use some of your clip definitely giving you credit.
Thank you for this video. We in the Latino community need to have honest conversations about racism within our communities.
That information is false, one of the great virtues of the Argentine people its lack of organized segregation. We were one of the first countries to abolish slavery after Haiti
This is typical American garbage trying to infect other countries. Racism will never disappear. Everybody is racist, it’s an impossible task to try and eradicate it. That’s why is a perfect political agenda to get policies in movement. Don’t fall for this American garbage infecting your mind. People in Argentina are happy
@@efrenhei4902 so that's supposed to undo the erasure of racism all of a sudden when you still have people in public go out their way to show prejudice towards black people and type black words anti-black practices? Are you serious? How do you know what people who are African in that country go through,? You're in your own bubble who could give a damn lick about what's going on just as long as you're fine right? This is the commonality between you and people of European descent in America they do the same thing and have the same replies whenever people bring true factual information of the nature of the problem that is created by Western society
@@efrenhei4902 and yet segregate blacks and make them invisible. If the white people don’t call out the systemic racism in their country, they too are part of the problem.
@@efrenhei4902 that doesn't mean there is no.racism .abolishing slavery doesn't abolish racism
Ace, thank you for another great video! Blessings from Toronto, Canada 🇨🇦
Thanks ! Thats a new vision Sad how the situation is , but this is a very brave , nice and kind man .
Thanks for these interviews..the people who say "black is only in America" are really wrong as far as how people identify
They treat the indigenous peoples the sàme way. They act like they do not exist.
At least 60% of the population in Argentina have native ancestry but still there is discrimination against native people. However our best president, Juan Peron has native origins and he new a native language.
Ace, I love what your doing… keep up the good work.
Love the Intro Homie!!! Keep doing your thing.. crazy how life works my actual interest led me back to someone I knew from my past sometimes you never know how much you really have in common with people because we never talk about things sometimes that are not the popular opinion.. extremely proud of you extremely motivated by you always now that I've discovered you I will continue to support. stay driven, continue to inspire. I appreciate you
Love the fact she considers herself black! So many people are ashamed
I don't blame the people who are afraid to be labeled black. You've seen so much you don't wanna go through the same treatment .
AND YES THEY ARE RIGHT CAUSE
WE ARE NOT BLACK!!!
Why accepting a status that's not you own...
Love your content and bringing visibility to sensitive issues is a necessity. 💯💯 Great work!
Thanks Ace, I enjoyed the video ❤️
I'm Argentinean. Son of Italians and Spanish. I have never seen a story as well told as this one about the Afro descendants of my country. Thank you!!!!
This gentleman and his daughter was just a joy to watch and listen to! Her father raised her well! He is a beautiful BLACK man and has kept himself up in the myst of that mess created by WS! I am happy to hear that she is there fighting for the African rights in Argentina.
the people of African diaspora have largely influenced the cultures of Colombia, Venezuela and Brazil in particular yet are afforded so little in terms of political representation, let alone social or economic.
They already have the same rights? Or maybe you mean other thing by that?
*Congratulations on getting 400k subscribers!!!*
Loved the content Ace!! Great information on the black experience in Argentina!! Keep it coming!!
Yo me, he looks like Dr. Claude Anderson. Great work brother. Keep the facts coming👌🏿🙏🏿🧑🏿
My 5 grandfather came from Argentina by way of Italy. The Spanish brought Italian slaves with them to Argentina. He was brought to America in the early 1700’s and married my grandmother (5) who was an indigenous person and they had five children. I saw a sales slip selling them to a plantation in the Mississippi delta, which is where I was born. I can pass for white, but I don’t. My family were black activists and we were proud people.
I am Argentinan And never so a black person even in school never mentioned.great video love father and daughter 👍🇦🇷🙏
Ace I must congratulate you and thank you for bringing these series of videos to the world. I hope everyone wil nowl take notice and begin to help improve the plight of the Black population in Argentina. Blessings my brother.
Lamentablemente diste con personas muy mentirosas.
Activistas que sólo buscan una compensación económica del Estado.
Totalmente de acuerdo
Te juro que pienso lo mismo, unos bolasos tremendos le metieron y se las creyó a todas, es una cosa de locos.
Exactamente, lo que cuentan esas personas que aparecen en el video no representa en absoluto lo que es Argentina. La primer persona que aparece en el video la única experiencia que cuenta sobre racismo en el país fue hace 40 años, ya eso lo dice todo...
Be proud of your black skin its a beauty than wrinkles skin people.
Thank you for showing your travels…
I can´t wait to see what happens next. Excellent channel my men. Cheers from Zona norte
We know the National ZIonists sought refuge in Argentina and carried their behaviour along with them. Never to change.
Y crees que en Estados Unidos no hubo nazis? Amigo son el país más racista del mundo😂
It's not Afro-Argentinian it's African-Argentinian. It's amazing, I can't believe what she is saying. There should be an international organization to link Black people of the diaspora. We all could support each other in one way or the other. I am a Black professional that would offer my service.
Yesss we should do that seriously
Bro! To watch your evolution from your very first video to now has truly been amazing and inspirational! You are really becoming a professional at this! I predict seeing you on national television in the future. Keep it up Ace!
All what she is telling is a great lie, . . both of that people are from uruguay, not from argentina.
I loved this interview, it was very informative.
There can never be a present or a future without a past . The past has to be processed , then we can move on.
I’m from Argentina , grew up there . I’m 50% west African (dad side) Russian/German (mom’s side ) . I went through a lot of racism like they mentioned growing up there . Not just me my dad who was black had a horrible time and got me ready to face discrimination.
Of course most people are not but many many are . I could write a book about it .
Great video !!!
Also , part of my family is part of the Garay family the gentleman mentions at the beginning. Pita, Nadal etc .
bless you sister..afro argentinian..God is with us
That's where all the NAZIS RAN TO AFTER WW2
Definitely can’t wait to see the next video
I truly appreciate everything you do and all the rich history of our people and our ancestors around the world. I'm looking forward to seeing all of your videos and the rest of the history concerning the set of videos on this episode. The older gentleman his videos reminded me of my parents they used to love to dance. They are both gone now.. I just recently lost my mother. My dad died 9 years ago. This young lady is so bless to still have her father.Ace I'm so Godly proud of you and everything you did for your mother. Tell her every day you love her. Send more and more time with her. This help us. It's been 3 months since we lost our mother.... hopefully this will help someone out there. Keep your parents very close to your ♥.. I apologize for going there.but again I learned so much from this video. I'm looking forward to the next set of interviews and videos. Much love and respect and honor to the older gentleman and his family. And most importantly you Ace. Are amazing young man. From the Washington family. Here in America 🇺🇸.
A teacher once told me you’ll know a country is racist if you don’t see diversity in their national team. I’m a big fan of soccer I never really see a black player in Argentina national team except for Juan Sebastián Verón
Even if it’s diverse, the country is racist.
@@queeniebee3618 🤣😂🤣😂🤣....not laughing at your comment. But the response is spot on.
@@senderosOk7513 😅🤣😅🤣 okay
@@senderosOk7513 hmmmm in America he’s black
Maybe you didn't see black, but brown people,mixed. Pay attention to Di Maria, Tevez, Riquelme, Romero, Agüero (idk just the first names that came to my mind) Here it is common to deny even our indigenous ancestry.😒
Afro-Mexicano here
I just found your channel and I LOVE it!!!!!
