The Guards of The River Senegal | Today In Africa | TRACKS

- In human cultures in general, and perhaps particularly in Africa, the landscape is the first shrine of tradition. From the sand dunes of Mauritania to the currents of River Senegal, to the Lions of the Beninese savannah to the spirits of the forests of Gabon, this series explores the origin, the nature and the survival of deep links between several populations in West Africa and their habitat.
Each episode takes us to discover an emblematic landscape: the river (Senegal), the desert (Mauritania), the forest (Gabon) and the savannah (Benin). A compass of escape and meeting which rests on two main pillars: the spectacular character of the places, often classified with the UNESCO world heritage, and the charisma of the main characters who are transmitters of their respective traditions.

“ The people in Europe are not extraordinary. They are not better than us but organised “
This is true. Africans are hard workers and intelligent. What they lack is good leadership and organisation.
That woman made a lot of sense when talking about that.
What Africa needs is less corruption, it's sad because Africa is such an amazing continent but politicians will sell it out for their own personal gain.
All humans are capable of amazing things, it's really too bad we aren't doing better in this world.
Organisation is the only thing that is missing in Africa today. You are correct! Having lived in Europe for 35 years, they have strong laws and better organisation of their societies and that’s what we lack in Africa. Apart from that, we are extremely resilient and a capable people like any other!
Love africa so much, its Just so beautyful....Blessing to all africans & africa for ever...
You bblessed as Well Maria!
Ashé. Apesar de todos los intentos de destruir la verdadera gran madre, África, siempre será bendecida; no podrán acabar con nosotros.
@@SoLNaTaL555 Di que si! 👏🏾✊🏾👍🏿 ARRIBA AFRICA!
Love senegal and entire Africa ❤
As a Senegalese born man and Senegalese citizen based in America I fall In love with my country every day. I learn something new everyday. I hope we can address all the glaring problems that the country has but it’s important to know that this is one of the most beautiful places in the world. And the people are absolutely amazing
I wish I could see it for myself and meet people like you. I've only just begun watching this, but I'm already enthralled. Take care, & I pray you make it home for a visit in the next couple of years.
The narrator was amazing... We can feel actually what the speaker wants to say..... Senegal people are amazing...
IT is so awesome when a person can recognize that even though things are difficult once you have a little to eat and drink continually it's just better than nothing or stealing, may God be with you, and if someone out there can financial help help out the guy is old already have mercy 🙏
From west coat Africa Cape Verde islands Watching from USA. When was a kid my mom used take us to Dakar Senegal 🇸🇳 to my unties house on school vacation remember it was so fun rich of food fish the Senegalese very kind respectful I even made friends, but the language was challenge for me then start learning few words then my family immigrated to America 🇺🇸 from CV,2 decades later went visit Dakar still beautiful I love the culture planning to visit again soon missed Dakar and Gambia one day go back to motherland ♥️ where we all the same skin color Africa….
we are one, all Senegambians. you are a beautiful soul, love (cape verde) gambian
African unity is important and once united and developed you can shake the world 🌎🙏🏿
As an American, and it is so very amazing to me that the European viewpoint of Africa and its 55 countries began with colonization by Europeans. The “glory days” seem to always be conjoined with the collapse of independence..AS IF there was no glory. Hint: no one attempts rob a beggar.
@Doña Helado I could not agree more. Very insightful argument you have made. Not many people know about this: Africa before European colonialism. Well done!
@Doña Helado unfortunately all the truth you have spoken is still very present today but only looks different.
@Doña Helado the Ottoman empíre no the árabe empíre sicle 5 ,- 6 ,7-8 -9 colonial empíre Ottoman thr Norte África . Turquía) and empíre Greco-romanos colonialism europeos .
Prayers for the protection of Africa and Africans.❤️
Watching from The Gambia ✌️♥️. It's sad though how our governments sell our rivers to the Chinese and the Europeans. Hope that changes soon.
That part👏🏽, funny how they forgot to mention this in the documentary.
A land of beauty and mystery Africa truly is a magical place, the survival of these people is just astonishing.
Ohoo my dear Sénégal, I miss you so much
Tracks is More Concentrated in the the West and North of Africa... I am hoping to see them venture to the Eastern, Central and Southern Africa.
Loving this one thanks for sharing very information blessed love to all knowledge is power hopefully everyone pays attention keep up the good work 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
If there is a country i really want to visit as an Afrikan it is Senegal. So much culture
You are welcome here in St Louis Senegal.
@@kateakintoye6507 Thank you my sister. I will reach when i am ready. Just worried about the language barrier
Aww, French.
@@kateakintoye6507 only the official language
@@kahdijabarry7364 Yes the official language but you must also speak Wolof. You must be Peulh Kahdija Barry 😀😀😀or Gambian?
Senegal so much talent
Lovely.... I was in tears when that lady said... "" western people are no different than us.... Just they are more organised... "" wish she can be president n lead a country and people living happily.... Africa need such people and other support them rather pulling her down...
Me growing up in Senegal I remembered eating fish a lot. But now it's so hard to come by big fish. So sad. Wrestling number 1 sport after soccer of course. Love this documentary 🇸🇳🇸🇳🇸🇳
Ici c'est Senegal. Love my city St Louis.
My Lord senegal is a gem in the Atlantic coast of West Africa, it is like Zanzibar in East Africa
Thank you or Diereudieuf as we say!!!
Senegal my beloved.😍
what a good attitude. In the midst of such difficult work for so small a reward he found his wife and started a family and is so content!
Great documentary and narration! Moving and inviting me back home to Africa. The fishermen can’t compete with the odds. Greedy European trawlers!
Wow...those boats are beautifully painted.
What a wonderful documentary!
Love and respect for the hardworking Senegalese people.
So beautiful 😻
Excellent documentary.
I live on a Caribbean island,and every day me watch it, sometimes it high n at times very low where u could see straight through. The ocean acts like women lal...
Fantastic documentary.
The coastline isn’t protected since the building of two dams along the Sénégal river; the natural flow of the river used to deposit the silky sand which has protected the coastline for centuries. With the building of the dams, there’s no more silk coming down the river.
Even if you look at it, where people are inhabiting right now was created by centuries of silk deposits.
Thank you for this sensible explaination of what is happening to the coast of Senegal. Why are European documentaries always so quick to say it is caused by global warming? How can you be so sure of something with some many variables? Maybe because it's a hoax that's why.
Man sha allah keep going ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🌹🌹🌹🌹👌✔️
Is the narrator William Morgan Sheppard? Suddenly got reminded of Civ5 all of a sudden.
13:13 20:00 Mapping it out.
I liked the video very much. If you liked the video, this channel "TRACKS" has a total of 4 videos (including this one) by the same producers about different countries in Africa, I watched all 4 and they are all very informative and well produced.
Here are the CZcams video titles for all 4.

2. The Guards of The River Senegal | Today In Africa | TRACKS
3. Gabon: Africa's Rainforest And It's Protectors | TRACKS

Wake up Africa
You are more than what you think you are
I recently went to Madrid and other Spanish and Portuguese cities and met some Senegalese men selling souvenirs and really struggling to make a living
Europeans look down upon them
Pl develop your own country and prosper
Your country is blessed and pl realise this and make the change 👍🏽
people should not complaint when they see these hard working Senegalese! I would not for sure.
Being happy with less is NPC philosophy. It doesn't add a dimension it subtracts all dimensions. Ignorance is not bliss it's an inward death spin
Veely is not available in Nepal?
Your beautiful
😘
Land of teranga
👍🇸🇳
18:10 haram!!!!🙄🙄
so what😂...you want them to be Arab robots? They are Africans and so their traditions must be interwoven in their adopted religion. If you don't like it you can go kick rocks.
The EU stole all the fish!
Great work.
Fascinating.
But a street most of them live on in Europe
Those wrestlers EERILY resemble the African Strong Men sold and trafficked to the Arabian and Indo -European peninsulas.
.
Persia(now Iran), gandhar(afganisthan), Egypt, arob, all were great, Islam destroyed all these and these are the heaven of terrorism, all criminal activities.
How did Islam destroyed when Islam is the keeper of beauty and sanity? What is your race? Are you white, Asian or African?
So did Christianity! ......
@@dayax3335 TRUE Islam is not a religion but that's what it's turned out to be 👉🏾 a facade
I wonder if they wish the colonizer would return.
You mean the occupiers, who raped and pilged. Yeah I think they would want them to return, everyone knows they love enslavement
They never left !!!! they are still there! France owns half the Senegalese economy
Our government are Macron‘s puppet
Never. Their return will be their death sentence. The new generation will fix the country, it has started already.
@@kikodii why ? I seen videos, everybody was happy and modern
What do you mean by modern ? Do you mean the western lifestyle that is destroying the environment and creating more depressed people everyday ? No, that’s the problem. I believe Simple life = Happy life. In Africa, people living in villages are happier and healthier than people in modern African towns. Yes, we have “modern towns” with “modern people” 🙂.
Same problem. Population increase congestion resource depletion Chinese trawlers combing sea bottom taking every firm of life from the bottom of the sea, no fish too many mouths to feed.... Global population reduction snd change life style to protect our blue planet .
