And as always family, "Peace & Love; Love & Light!"
These women are being murdered in cold blood due to jealousy in my opinion.
agreed
Exactly 💯 a lot of folks especially Men can't handle a BW who is financially and Mentally. Able to make decisions and live a lifestyle they can't. So be careful even here in the USA men are killing BW over Money 🤑.
Yeah, they are, and we as Black women need to protect ourselves f*ck that!
I don’t think there is anything about black American women that anyone would be jealous about. Absolutely nothing in my opinion. Inner work is what black Americans need especially black women. The attitude, loudness,disrespect,ratchet behavior,lack of humility,inability to be logical, etc are what render black American women unlikeable everywhere they go,even in their native land( America). I’m hoping these deaths are natural and not murders as it is being interpreted by black American women. What is so attractive about voodoo and witchcraft? This is what most black American women who move to Africa seem to be interested in. Africans themselves don’t practice that voodoo or witchcraft crap except some west Africans especially those from villages. Finding one’s roots or identity is not embracing pegan spirituality.
Gambia is not a place for settlement, the people there are not looking for partnership. They wanted tourism only. They killed 300 people from Ghana at one time because they feared Ghana people who are more educated would take their country. Also the country is too small to encourage settlement. Think about that sisters.
If this trend is noticeable then avoid going to the Gambia
I dont believe this is only happening in Gambia, Peace
I agree. It’s obvious that AA are not wanted there and there is probably a lot of jealousy involved. How dare these AA come here and flourish while we are struggling to get by👀👀👀
One yt viewer ask the bag family, if they knew what happen to the women who died in Gambia, the lady told them to go to the gossip Channel to find out. So the woman could not care less, but wait until something happen to her. She is heartless
Move to Ghana please, Gambia has a secret, Gambia people killed about 300 Ghanaians couple of years ago.
@@pastryshack551WOW I know about bag family channel,are you talking about the wife Cynthia?
Trust no soul in Gambia. I don't hate my country but our culture towards materialism has made us monsters and godless people. Its even breaks my heart to call myself a Gambian.
As a Gambia I agree 💯 with your take on the issue. I had to abandon my own land due to the nefariousness of my own people.
as a Somali, I feel the same towards my country most of times... our people got corrupted by being in contact with the western culture... we were tribes and clans that care about their dignity, honor and the name we inherited and will leave for our children...
but now.. our lives became a daily struggle to get what we owe and deliver what we are agreed upon...
there are people around us forcing us to be threatening all the time, just to save our property and make others fulfill there obligations towards us!
@@slconsmedia981guy I can say the same about South Africa , Africa has been ruined by the Western ways of life
Think is Shakina scammed several diaspora. The police should like into that too. Who knows if it wasn't a diaspora who sent a gambian to delete her? Everything should looked into.
@@siphamandlamkhize9766truth!
I hear you about Europesans buying lands and enjoying priveleges and Africans seem to be ok with, but when black american just buy a lot to build a modest home, then they object. The mentality is outrageous.
Europeans live in gated communities too, and set boundaries on socializing and interacting with locals
Well, they would.
The white man is God to many Africans
@@dontbelongherefromanotherp9807 I believe the Chinese are doing the same with no overt objection from the Gambians. But, Black Americans? Ok!
@@dontbelongherefromanotherp9807 how do they set boundaries when they do sex tourism with youngsters. You know that they have extra privileges with locals so stop pretending
Thank you for bringing this to light. Unfortunately, I think too many black Americans "romanticize" going to live in Africa. They probably left the U.S. in order to try to have a better life and to feel more "safe" and "accepted". Unfortunately that is not what happened. It breaks my heart...
She died trying
If the allegations that these sisters were murdered by Gambians are true, I pray that the culprits are found and made to answer for their crimes! No human being should have to die at the hands of another anywhere. But do we know, for sure, that their deaths were the result of some criminal or sinister plot by the Gambian people?
@@py20 Does it matter whether or not it was a Gambian? The sisters went there thinking it would be better for them and it was not. One sister was unalived by a man from Sierra Leone that she had hired to do some work her. We do not know about the other sisters yet or if they are even investigating their deaths (not that I have heard at least).
@ndtable You are right - it doesn't matter whether they died at the hands of Gambians or not. My point is that we don't know yet what caused their deaths, and we should not rush to conclusion, as many of the commenters (not you necessarily) have done.
It’s heartbreaking
Whenever you arrive in Africa, and for that matter, in any "Third World Country", the very first thing you should do is to go to YOUR EMBASSY/HIGH COMMISSION in the host country and REGISTER your presence there. If you experience any life-threatening difficulties, your embassy will help you return to your country. You will then pay for the cost of return once you are safely home.
Exactly.
We are not third World Countries.... That's the Colonizers name and label.... However, everything else I agree with you on ...
@@exquisitecaribbeanqueen7198that's why I put it in "inverted commas"

Thank you, hopefully someone will benefit from this helpful info you have put here.
The same case is going on in Ghana and other African countries 🤦🏾♀️
These hexes and curses happen in ATL, GA as well. We are evil against each other for no dang reason. Envy is usually the root.
Hexes or envy? Smh. Ain't no hex. They were in a place where a man wanted something from them. A poorer nation.
It's much much deeper than that
I also saw a video where they said the Africans felt that they can't afford to buy land and no black Foreigner is coming over here and buying their grandparents land that they can't afford and they was getting rid of them. Going over there sounds like getting out of the frying pan jumping in the skillet
This is true! I had considered the Gambia about 5 years ago. But, I noticed right away their disdain for Black Americans and quickly changed my mind. On the other hand, they love white people, Indians and Chinese, and allow these people to treat them any kind of way. Their thought process is a little twisted in my opinion from colonization and suffer slave mentality. I would not recommend this country to anyone.
Exactly
It is it, it is all!
I’m not supprised if it’s not the western men paying these fools and also greed from black people
You are seeing a pattern - Black American Women are out of control. They are protected here in the USA by a combination of Black Female Matriarchal structure and White Supremacy. Those protections are off the table in Africa - and you are seeing the result.
I want justice for all these ladies but why move to a third world country and complain about third world things? The Gambia has zero appeal.
Where’s this 🤡 from?
Right!
Gambia is a third world dump! When will people learn!
Idk. Fasting doesn't kill you it heals you.
There is now Shakina who was 60 yrs old. Apparently they found her body beaten and tossed by the home she was building in the Gambia. This is so unreal and extremely sad.
Move to Ghana please, Gambia has a secret, Gambia people killed about 300 Ghanaians couple of years ago.
It boils down to NOT knowing how to talk to males in Africa. Especially in a Muslim nation like the Gambia. Leave your feminist, gay and lesbian ideologies in the US if you intend to live and do business in Africa. As a matter of fact women are better off having a trusted man negotiate business(LAND) deals for them. It's very dangerous to run your mouth in a predominantly Muslim nation as a woman. I feel very bad for Shakina Chinedu. I liked her. I said in one of her videos that she would be better off moving to SE Nigeria. Amongst the Igbos. I wish she had followed my advice.
@@saggisokI have to agree with you, as a black woman from America. It's probably not a good idea to move there as a single woman either.
@saggisok so if a female expresses an opinion she's a feminist? 😂😂😂😂😂😂.
@@saggisok foolishness they are a lots of gay men and a lots of lesbian in Africa so cut out this nonsence, Peace
Unfortunately another sister from the UK passed recently. They found her at the home she was building. Something is definitely going on.
Yes its part of the Plan, Peace
It is now a total of 7 Daughters Of Zion dead in Gambia.

I said this years ago when this repatriation to Africa started. Our western behavior of documenting things is great for Americans but many third work countries see it as an attempt to uncover their misdeeds.
We have to be careful because many Gambians see Americans as arrogant. Obviously this does not constitute to harm someone.
Interesting perspective when africans from numerous countries from west to east record themselves beating & burning their own people alive & posting the videos on social media. This also includes mutilations & village massacres currently taking place as it has been since their B.C. times.
It's also their religious influence. The men there do not like powerful, independent, self made women.

@@WayjayJ.-qd4zo "independent" women tend to thrive on insulting men, that does not work well in Africa.
People are mis- informed both ways over the Atlantic, I live in Canada, and in my youthful days in Canada, we told in school that we were different from Black Americans and the Caribbean and I wondered. We did not even walk together, but growing up I learnt it was all divide and indoctrinations that has made us like that, I got beat up by other brothers for being AFRICAN. I takes times to use that concept of animosity fades. I am sorry but is the reality we all face
Excellent Post. In my humble opinion, I strongly believe that Black people who have been raised in the diaspora should do more research before moving to another country. The attitudes towards single people varies from country to country. Also remember that many cultures do not value individualism in the way that it is valued in Western/European cultures. As an African American, I would not move to any country on the African continent without first reading Dr. Rudolph Windsor’s books.
Tanzania is the easiest, we just jokers. But again you can consult AA located in such countries,this will give colors.GobackAfrica he's good,and good luck with love ✊🏽
That's wise and interesting advice you shared hopefully people will listen. 💯👊🏾
@@Goddess637Yes Kenya and South africa, and any southern African countries. Because these countries are Christian-based,Speak English,Infrastructure,Liberalism, and Culture. Although promiscuity there mimics USA
Kenya is the best country because they speak English, there are many foreigners there from different countries, they tolerate different religions and co- exist peacefully, have good hospitals just in case one gets sick and foreigner friendly laws.
Ethiopia nice calm people.@@PurplePillRiches
I found this video extremely eye opening. Sharing in my Black women travel groups and on Black women centered pages and spaces.
This is so unfortunate on many levels. I’d wanted to visit the Gambia after meeting a tour guide during my visit to Senegal 🇸🇳 in 2022. Clearly it’s not safe for BW, so I’m scratching it off my to-see list. And to be honest, I don’t understand how any BW would remain there knowing there’s a target on the backs of Black women. Thank you for this video.
Please try to remember that the wrong are usually the loudest. As a Gambian female, I wouldn’t discuss land or anything relating to money or go some places alone in this country either. I know for sure there are horrible people all over the place. The reason it’s maybe been difficult for BW from the US is the lack of connection with a trusted native family over here. If people know that you belong to so and so family, they won’t come near you cuz they know there will be severe consequences. I feel absolutely horrified that these degenerates are doing such horrible things to AA women and tarnishing the image and of our nation. I wish people knew it was happening and the government did something about it but the government only looks out for itself in most cases and how we survive is through our family units.
We want you to come home and feel safe. There just needs to be a few policy changes so that can be possible.
A black British women was murdered a few days ago in the Gambia RIP Shakina

I know I will be blasted for this. I don't think single black women should expat without the protection of a man.
I'm not upset about your comment.
100% agree!
Your man will eliminate you. Just be moral.
I'm coming around to this thinking... It's disturbing but we should become aware of such things.
You right ! Thats the first thing came to my mind. This my first time hearing about this and finding this lady's channel. Sad.
Thanks, i wont travel there at all. It was on my lists, now i will scratch them off my lists....thanks very much for the information....
I’ve scratched the whole continent off my bucket list about 5 yrs ago when I threw away my RBG flag. There is no uniting with the so called diaspora in any way. It was a fantasy I had to acknowledge.
@@yahya4370 I would do that at all. We are uniting in many other ways. We dont need all 53 to unite...We know need 25% and we have that already.....Its not the size of the gun, its the effect of the bullets....( which is mindset. Gambia can't stop the awakening. God will move them out, if he has to.....)......,Look at Europe, they are all different. And not on the sane page at all. That's delusional of people to think were all the same. That does not prevent unity..

You are wrong with wrong information. Investigate if you want to know. You are talking about hearsay. There is a lot that you don't know. SAD stories .
Hospital in The Gambia is a joke
You need a round trip ticket AND a place to stay in America. Don't go to live abroad unless you have a home to come back to.
Facts
Art Kathy may be a big reason for this. She went to live in the Gambia from America. She dogg walked the women there. She talked about how they smelled and how the living standards were. Every day she came on line putting those ppl down really bad. She started telling ppl how easy it was to come there and create businesses. She started collecting money from ppl in the states that took her word that she was buying apartments for them and would have them ready when they got there. She scammed them. One American woman and a friend went and found they had been scammed. Once Kathy went in a store and when she came out the ladies ask her name and she told them and they jumped her. Ran her out of the Gambia. I believe the ppl there remembered her and didn't want America'ns coming to live there. Look her up on TH-cam. She is now back in the states.
It is really not safe for single women to be travelling in these poor African countries alone. It does not matter if you are black or white. Most of these poor locals will target you thinking that you have money because you are from a foreign land. They follow you around everywhere trying to befriend you just to get something out of you or use you as an opportunity to travel out of the country. If you don't have a serious male companion who can protect you, it is really very dangerous. I am very sad this is happening in the Gambia. They are good people, but some of them are so poor and desperate they can do anything for material gain. This is the second video I watched talking about these sad stories Thanks for spreading the information. People should be aware and be careful.
6 women now. A lady called Shakina was most recently beaten to death and thrown down a well on her property.
Im African American with Gambian friends in Gambia. Five sistas dead within a year is definitely alarming. I will look into this. What I know is that there are AAs Gambia doing well (as you noted). I have been to Gambia twice, but Im more knowledgeable about Ghana. Single Black American women in Ghana are doing great.
I’m sure some are loving ok but some have been killed there too. To expect the ppl that sold off millions of Africans to the slave trade.. I wouldn’t live there and the whole continent attitude towards BA overwhelmingly seems hateful. Of course there are outliers but why take the chance. We are trained to see family in other dark skin people.. they are not
As a blk American who has lived in Niger. Mind your business. Don't go over there reporting on people's practices. Africa is not America. The same rules don't apply. Don't be a busy body. Don't say bad things about their country. don't put people or anything on blast. Things are what they are, period. I feel like people should know this. Move in wisdom. Also, I don't do anything alone. I go though people who are from the country. I do what they say. I don't live alone. I always had allies. Blend in with the culture. Partake in the culture. Sorry to hear this. I've had minor situations but I found that life was easier when I assimilated. Survive, don't fight the system.
Excellent advice
They can talk about our country but we can't talk about theirs. F them
That is what you call Evil when bad things are happening no one should speak about it like the police brutality in America and other issues like Organ harvesting be carefull of what you are saying because the universe is watching you, Peace
Not everybody have such hard hearts, Peace
@@user-xn1sb3jx6qain’t nothing wrong with what was said.
These ladies have no family or friends who can take the bodies back to America/ uk for independent autopsies??
That's why I'm all for us Black Americans to build our communities where our ancestors made a way here in America. But if you choose to go to Africa, be careful my Brothers and Sisters and do your due diligence on the Countries you're visiting. Take care of each other, have meet and greets with fellow Americans to keep in contact with each other...just be safe!
In order for it to work, they must live in gated, secured communities and segregate from the locals. You can't expect total bliss and reciprocity from 2 opposing cultures with different values and beliefs, to get along and live in peace. It just isn't going to happen because when strangers enter another ethnic group's territory, one can't be naive in believing that there want be some envy, animosity, and hatred for them, feeling that they are trying to take over and undermine their culture
@@dontbelongherefromanotherp9807 you made very valid points, I agree on all accounts.

The sad and strange thing about these mysterious deaths is Gambians and most African Americans who live in Gambia and have a TH-cam channel are not talking about these deaths.You will find just 1 or 2 TH-cam channels from the Gambia talking these deaths.

@@nanaosei-bonsu959Ghanaians does same to foreigners though. The only difference now is black Americans there are helping the other black American coming in to settle. Many Ghanaians including their government has defrauded many AA and when you speak many Ghanaians attack you trying to portray perfection.

It's sad news. May their souls rest in perfect peace. Even Gambians know that Gambia is not what it used to be. The country has lots of migrants from all over the world. This is not about being a black American issue only. Just last month an innocent worker a Gambian was stabbed to death in her work place n many other situations where a Gambian girl fell a victim of such attacks resulting to losing their lives. Our sincere condolences to their respective families.

My dear ladies, this is not an African issue, leave this to the Gambians. People die everywhere, every day, most countries in Africa will l have at least 10 homicide or death by crime per year, especially in larger cities. In America on average 50,000 people die from homicide and other gun related issues. Most streets in Africa are very safe 24hrs. In America most cities are locked down by itself by 8pm. Crime happens everywhere, especially in poor countries in Africa. Gambia has a problem dealing with other people, couple of years ago about 300 innocent Ghanaians were murdered for no apparent reason by the military. So do not say Africans are targeting Black Americans. It hurts to hear Black American women passing by crime, but please most of us love to see you guys coming home. I am from Ghana, becoming a chief soon after my father, I have huge land to offer to diasporas, I will love to see you guys taking advantage of it in Ghana

They will tell you don’t go to Nigeria is bad but no Nigeria have ever kill black American living in Nigeria. Nigerians don’t care if you are black American or not.

But you will be fine no stress on your property unlike others who claim to be the best in African but end up killing AA.

I'm Black American living in The Gambia and I experienced a lot of jealously just by my presence and accent quickly I noticed the behavior of the people and I decided to make sure I live around wealthy people the attitude of the staff and neighbors are much better. I'm just here for a year and I came to relax so I'm rarely out and about socializing. I would love to meet some other black Americans it be nice to be understood and not judged.
Should have chosen Kenya/Ghana/South Africa.

Gambia had an opportunity to become strong and prosperous with us linking together, but jealousy and envy will prevent this from happening. The entire country will suffer from these losses. Their deaths will not go in vain.
Should I ask who gets their estate
I would like to know too
Thankyou for this detailed info. I watched a few others and they didn't have even the ladies names.
You’re welcome. Thanks for watching. 😊

As a Black-American woman, this is the reason I will never go to African countries. I have read way too many stories about Americans getting killed. First, the Dominican Republic in the Caribbean. now in Gambia .um, I'm good, thank you, sis..
Where in Africa is the "Dominican Republic"?😢
@@rayleon7938 Dominican Republic is the Caribbean.
@@ScorpioMami415 ok.. I was just wondering after I read your initial comments.
Just a quick clarification. The crimes on African streets aren't exactly different from the types of crimes you'll find anywhere else where most of the locals are poor and disadvantaged. Poor people target those they see as socially "better" than themselves. Africans do not have specific crimes that targets black americans. Unfortunately in small towns, they may have this wrong perception that "american" also means "rich".. even if its an ex- local who speaks their language.
I'm not trying to change your mind regarding visiting any African country; there are 54 of them, but I know that if you can handle DC, Baltimore, Mexico or Chicago, you'll know how to handle anywhere under the globe. Kenyans and Nigerians love non-citizens to a fault.. it's just a matter of choosing the right place even as a tourist. Peace.
Compare to how many Black-American women that are murder in America, SMH
@rayleon7938 I am well traveled and understand what you're saying. You can pick the right place to travel and still get hijacked it really doesn't matter. But like I said, there have been just too many stories about Black Americans getting killed, trafficked, etc. In these places overseas, so no, I'm not going to listen to anyone when it comes to my safety. It goes down everywhere, but I'm not going to sit up here and run right into the shit when I've been warned lol lol smh..make it make sense smh...

New to your channel. I stopped following Gambian news/events a couple of years ago. The death of Andrea Martin caught my attention. Apparently, a sixth woman has died recently. Shakina Chinedu was a British attorney, aged 60 and specializing in land purchases for ex-pats. She was found at the bottom of the well on property she was in the process of developing. She had been traveling back and forth to Gambia for the last 14 years or so, and had settled in Gambia 5 years ago. From the clips I have seen of her, she was very poised, well-spoken and an elegant woman. There are a lot of things about this pattern of deaths of middle-aged Black women that raise alarm bells. What I find really odd is the way some of the men, in particular African American men living in Gambia and/or Africa or traveling a lot to Africa who want to blame Black women for the deaths of the victims. One black male youtuber came right out and said Black single women should not go to Gambia, period. "It's not safe," he said. Then he launched into an extensive diatribe about how Black women, more specifically, "feminists" roll their eyes and document all the bad things in Gambia. Huh? What does feminism have to do with documenting/exposing problems in a community? That same youtuber pointed out that so-called whyte tourists in Gambia mind their own business and that's why no one is trying to kill them. Others have come out and said single black women need a man, basically.
I understand countries like Gambia are conservative, but there's something twisted in their logic. They don't want to deal with a mature and economically independent black woman, but they have no problem with the middle-aged wyte woman who comes to Gambia for a hook-up. Is that normal? Gambia has a reputation for s*x trafficking. How does that square with islam? I've seen comments, presumably from men expressing schadenfreude. They write: "How's the independent woman thing working out for you, black woman?" There's something unbelievably petty and nasty about these reactions. In the end perhaps these victims' dreams of a better Gambia were misplaced. The dreams these women had for Gambia were not shared by the very people they thought they were helping. I watched a video from a young man in Kenya, and he said a lot of Africans are jealous of Western black people, and will seek to do them harm. But these were older women. Why pick on them?
A few years ago I was actively researching ways to start a business in Africa. Now, I have no desire to live there. I know Gambia is just one country. But Africa seems like it is more interested in having Chinese and Europeans settle there than for diasporans to come to Africa. I think it's time African Americans really re-visit the dreams and aspirations we have of Africa. It's not easy living in the States or Europe for that matter, but Africa is not the solution we think it is. Of course I have no idea where we can go. We are not wanted in the States. Africa seems kind of dicey. So where to?
I pray the six women who recently passed away find repose in God's divine kingdom.
You are right. They don't want us there & therefore we shouldn't go.
Sad but true
My dear ladies, this is not an African issue, leave this to the Gambians. People die everywhere, every day, most countries in Africa will l have at least 10 homicide or death by crime per year, especially in larger cities. In America on average 50,000 people die from homicide and other gun related issues. Most streets in Africa are very safe 24hrs. In America most cities are locked down by itself by 8pm. Crime happens everywhere, especially in poor countries in Africa. Gambia has a problem dealing with other people, couple of years ago about 300 innocent Ghanaians were murdered for no apparent reason by the military. So do not say Africans are targeting Black Americans. It hurts to hear Black American women passing by crime, but please most of us love to see you guys coming home. I am from Ghana, becoming a chief soon after my father, I have huge land to offer to diasporas, I will love to see you guys taking advantage of it in Ghana
@@nanaosei-bonsu959 this is an African Problem because in Europe the Africans are very hateful to Caribbeans and Americans and if you talk against racism in Europe to the Africans they will hate you, Peace
And yes they hate our guts, i think they target the middle age black non Africans because maybe they have more to offer, so when they kill them what ever they have the Gambians will profit from it and also it could be that they think to attack someone older is easier to manage,,Peace
Before you mentioned posion that came up in my mind when I heard about all those death they need to check if all their organs was still in them ,
Yes
Thank you for this.
This is very sad news. I just left Gambia a few weeks ago. I stayed in a house in Sanyang on and off for 2 months. I've had no problem with people there. Occasionally the men will be aggressively trying to chat me up, but that's any easy fix. I don't hang out at night, I cook my own food which is most fresh fruit, veggies and grains. I've seen marabout, with no issues. Sending prayers up for all Black American women in The Gambia and globally.
Don’t forget your homeland here in America. We are indigenous to this land We built mound pyramids and everything. We may have migrated from Africa 20,000 years ago. We are black indigenous Americans. We need to rebuild our nation here. They want you to move you off your land by calling you African. Africa is not a country. Gambians have their own culture for thousands of years. You don’t go there tell them how to live. Buy land in America. Bill Gates is trying to buy it all.
Excellent post...except we Aboriginal American Indians didn't migrate from anywhere. We are literally organic to our Motherland America Amraca aka Turtle Island❤
Not all of us we are not monolithic. The northern tribes migrated.
The southern tribes Judah arrived on ships.
FBA B1
But black women are being unalived every 5 hrs in America. Why are we black women easy targets all over the world. I pray for my black sisters all over the world. May God protect us❤
@@oliviaanang6825 I'm a black American woman in Egypt not America and nobody is targeting me accept with marriage proposals. Men are protecting me here. A bunch of them.
This is very disturbing. If someone has details about each woman, such as where she was living, if she was married or in a a business relationship, as many details as possible, please consider contacting the US State Department. A warning might be issued to Americans who are considering moving, or even traveling to, the Gambia.
Good advice.
I might be reaching but there was this TH-camr “Art Cathey” who moved to the Gambia who basically told her follows that basically they should come to the Gambia and take over because the people were stupid. It caused a great problem she went on the run to another part of Africa. Could it be they now see American woman with some means as a threat. Like I said I could be teaching this was like in 2021.
Yea I remember that they wanted her out of The Gambia bc she was talking shit about them
I just said yesterday she was straight devil energy that dropped the seeds of division.
They felt disdain for AA before Art Cathey. But, her situation didn’t make things any easier!
Yes I remember Art Cathey She is now in Ghana!!!
Move to Ghana please, Gambia has a secret, Gambia people killed about 300 Ghanaians couple of years ago.
Unless your parents are from Africa you are not African. If your grandparents are in their late 60s and 70s age group your are not African. You have been deceived with this all out of Africa and the slave trade. Pls research.
Watch video The truth about Jamaica and Jamaicans. It relates also for the whole north, South America and Caribbean areas.
Well said
This ❤..
But you shouldn't have to be "African" to go and live amongst Africans, they come and live amongst Black Americans ALL the time, so do so many other black people and they are not being murdered.
All of Humanity is “Out of Africa”.
It's a cluster that deserves the authorities investigating.
What authority? Gambian government and police ain’t gah do nothing
That's no different than Ghana giving black people land for a hundred years. You cannot give the land to your children so soon as you die it goes back to Ghana and a Ghanian has a free house that an American built. Something they never had before Free land, free house ,free water well
NOT EXACTLY TRUE.THIS ONLY HAPPENS IF THE AFRICAN AMERICAN DOESN'T HAVE A FAMILY OR DOES TO NOMINATE ANY ONE TO TAKE OVER THE LAND IF THEY PASSON OR AFTER 99 YRS.IF THEY PASS ON OR AFTER 99 YRS IF THE AFRICAN AMERICAN HAS A FAMILY BE IT A SON,DAUGHTER OR RELATIVE,THE LAND IS PASSED OVER TO THEM.
You really think those documents that will give the land to family for the remaining years wouldn’t just disappear?? Lol
@allthingznatural5592 - EXACTLY!! These were the first things I thought when I heard about the land grants. The next thought was, did anyone poll the native Ghanians to ensure they were down with the offer? Then, I wondered why we (ADOS) would have to spend our ends to go over there and then build something with the land. Finally saw someone's video pointing out how all this "homecoming" b.s. was boosting the Ghanian economy.
Black Americans think that Africa and skin color means that "it's the motherland and Black Americans will be welcome." IMHO....Black Americans have more in common with Europeans than Africans. It must be understood we're generations, generations, and generations moved away from Africa and Black Americans and Africans are a very different culture. That's the key. It's not about the skin color it's about the culture.
I definitely disagree. As an African American that can trace my Congolese roots to the slave ship “The Wanderer”, that illegally transported my Congolese ancestors into South Carolina …. AFTER the Emancipation Proclamation and Civil War. I HIGHLY disagree. I feel HEAVILY connected to my African ancestors and they don’t play about ME. The culture may be different, but baby.. the spirit does not lie and we share many similarities. I find that many (NOT ALL) African people accept or have many vested interests with Europeans, than Black Americans people do. Hence, why sadly… they’d run to a European… than a Black American in a heart beat. Let’s be real.
@@brianamichelle9024 Well this is where we differ. You say African American and I say Black American. The dissimilarities are vast. I've me many Africans through my travels and I know of what I speak. It's much like Whyt American people who say they are Italian American or have Italian roots. Most have never been to Italy or can point to it on a map. Neither can they speak the language so their so-called Italian roots were pulled up a long time ago..
Do you speak any of the African languages? Do you cook African food? Do you have an African passport from the country of Africa that you claim to have strong roots in? Do you wear specific African dress? Do you practice the customs from the part i.e. country of Africa that you claim to have roots in? Do you live in that specific country in Africa more than in the US? Yeah....I didn't think so. Black Americans are far removed from Africa by many generations. You can claim Africa if you want. Take Care and Good Bye
People are so excited sometimes to leave the mess in the West,and this overshadows some details sometimes. we're also excited to be home,and get carried away by emotions,and so we ignore again little details that are/can be life saving. I'm a diasporan living on the continent almost thirty years,but within 3 yrs span, I visited different countries and learned some basics about living/surviving here,to be short.african Americans need to learn,that to a certain degree,you have to switch off America if you want to live in africa, otherwise it's not gonna work.this continent is vast and diverse,and just running here overnight,is like jumping in mid ocean without knowing how to swim.there are dangers logging here like everywhere else,and if/when you aren't prudent, you'll quickly end up under bus! Ppl need to wake up,and stop being naive!
I agree. There is a lot of romanticism about Africa that African Americans have and it stops them from thinking critically about the continent. And frankly; it hasn't been "home" for hundreds of years.

I definitely want to visit Africa ut let’s be real it’s a 3rd working country… And just my interactions with Africans when traveling the work many don’t like Black Americans 😂 that being said I wouldn’t trust them at all!
@@nanaosei-bonsu959 who sent you🤣am on "my angel"Valentino
Just yesterday another sister was found in her well....clearly foul play. So sad
In Gambia,our hospital don't have good medicine.but ded is a time and a place not about gambia.may all the souls rest in peace ✌🏿🕊️
Come home people I been to Africa Three years its horrible!
Thank you for sharing informations.
RIP those black women loss their life.😢🙏🏾
Has the FBI been called, they need to investigate. This sounds like a documentary loading. So sorry for my American Sisters losing their lives seeking a peace of mind. 😔
FBI? for blacks?
I just want to ask a simple question, how many Gambians died in the hands of African Americans? I knew at least a dozen . How many Africans died in the hands of African Americans? Hundreds if not thousands. Give us a break . May their soul rest in perfect peace.
I just subscribed. Welcome back Sis.
One other advice, if you are not from the country that host you in Africa, please keep your opinions to yourself, I know that in the US you have free speech, we do not have that much of that here, especially when it looks like you are attacking the government, culture, practises and economy.
Afrika is patriarchal, so as women be extra careful. Gambia is moslem country so women should even be more careful.
I dont think its has nothing to do with the Religion, Peace
@@user-xn1sb3jx6q It ABSOLUTELY does.
@@user-xn1sb3jx6qit really doesn’t. If people practiced Islam the way they need to, none of these issues would even remotely be thought of. It’s just terrible people taking advantage of foreigners that are lonely and don’t know much about their new place of residence.
Very informative... I am sooooo glad I did not move to The Gambia nor Ghana back in 2019 when I had wide eyed hope for a better and more peaceful life. There were a few African men begging for my attention and for my move. I feel like I dodged a bullet. The petty jealousies will get you killed. Just looking at how they treat us even over here in America was a huge red flag for me. Thank you God for delivering me safely home from my travels.
Anywhere is dangerous for single females.
There will always be people who are jealous of your success, even here at home, black American's always have to learn lessons the hard way, until we unite as a pure black American ethnic group we will always be disrespected because we have no government backing, as much as we would like to think we are African, we are not, we are hybrid Africans, part African part European and in African eyes we will never be fully accepted by some of them. They see us as fortunate like Cain saw Abel and we know how that story ended...
We're not Africans at all. We are ADOS. PERIODT. I don't know why we feel the need to be anything else. Canadians know they are not British. New Zealanders know the same thing as do the Aussies although they all have the same root. So it is for us. It's Africa's loss.
@@TheBLACKboard65 I like it...
Has nothing to do with jealousy. It’s all about the arrogance.
@@brucetopey8071It's envy with a bit of an inferiority complex. Hence the high levels of skin bleaching throughout the population.
we even hearing about this stuff in the states! It’s getting real… get out if you’re there.. and that Sister International group is super suspicious!
Oh shit up you still die here more. Some of our black Americans are sooo damn silly to
I am the social worker to a child whose mother is from Gambia. This mother adopted five black American children and used the money to purchase property. She treats the children well most of the time, but will name call them and compare them to her biological children. She shared with me that she purchased land in Gambia two weeks ago. The land was taken from an American who have lived in Gambia for the past 16 years. She bragged that Gambia look out for it's people first. She also admits that Gambian people are wicked. I asked her if she didn't feel bad that they took this man's land. She said no because they gave him his money back. I don't believe they did. But she is now the proud owner of the land.
Well that is the purpose of this come back to Africa ,the Americans and caribbeans with the Money will build and then they will be killed or have to leave without anything, Peace
She sounds wicked.. I feel bad for my Black American family who romanticize any African country. In some ways I don’t feel bad because we see how they act here and still want to go there? Ridiculous
@@yahya4370 true
America gives money for adopting children, or do you mean fostering?
@@icilmaa No,I said what I meant. I live in NYS. Adopted parents normally get about 30K for the adoption and $1500-2000 per month depending on the child's capabilities and functioning level. Five adoptees is 150K, plus, all five adoptees are diagnosed on the spectrum, including one of her biological children. That's 10K a month. When the child turns 21 they go from subsidy stipends to Supplemental Security Income, better known as SSI. The SSI is federally funded and is high as $943 per month.
Americans are regular foreigners in Gambia. Those with money could very easily become targets. Born on the continent', I'm not surprised to hear of these deaths Im sorry to say.
It is sad they lost their lives. Rest in peace to those beautiful sisters. I have been to The Gambia several times. I don’t want to be rude but as a black American woman it was fine for me. Also if you want to eat fish, you go to the beach as the fishermen come to shore & buy fish there. Not from the market. You can't go to another country & expect it to try to change a whole society of many tribes, languages & cultures. They have been dealing with rolling blackouts since at least 2013. Although not a standard but Gambians do the best they can with the limited resources & land they have. One thing I learned even traveling solo there is that as a woman you need to travel with a man. It is definitely a different society with its own issues just like any other place.
That good advice I 've been there what your saying is true, The streets don't have names also no maps etc., its hard on your own l backed off,
I believe women should be accompanied with male when traveling, especially, if they plan on relocating to an African country for safety reasons
I'm single in N. Africa and no problem near 2 years. I wear jewelry, dress well, carry money in my purse, go to the ATM even at night and can eat anywhere. Yah has got me. 😊
I stay away from Sub-Saharan Africa and it's people. They do not like us never have why they sold us into slavery.
Move to Ghana please, Gambia has a secret, Gambia people killed about 300 Ghanaians couple of years ago.
I just hope they are not bringing that sassy attitude and mouth to Africa! If so there will be consequences
Anja said she received food she purchased that was poisoned.
That issue has to be addressed it’s for the safety off American single women who wants to migrate to the Gambia?
Why would you want to go there? It’s the smallest African country with hardly any resources, very poor and very corrupt!
So sad. I just saw another channel (a brother ) . since this video, there was a 6th sudden death since Andrea. This last sister is from the UK. Very concerning and tragic.
What’s the channel?
stay tuned we going to get to the bottom of this
Not only African American. Caribbean British as well.
In my research I think ive heard of the people in certain places resenting us. Community is very important.
HER LIVE! HER CHOICE! WOW!
ADOS people just can’t catch a break😢😢ADOS people get Hurt and Killed by All😭😭Nothing is being done to Protect and hold folks accountable for Harming ADOS PEOPLE!!ADOS people has to come together stick together protect each other fight together in order for things to change for good!!🫶🏾 TO SAVE ADOS PEOPLE (PERIOD!!)🖤🖤
Shakina was such a kind woman. She never deserved such an end. Heartbreaking. Women are not safe anywhere. Rest in Power Queen
Wow!!!
Gratitude for bringing awareness! My heartfelt condolences to their families, friends, and everyone that’s impacted by these devastating losses. These beautiful women thought they were running to safety and security. The probability of five African American women deaths in the span of the given time is not enough to make a informed decision, but it is suspicious. It’s disheartening and concerning. We need answers from the officials in the Gambia.
I think some of what we've been fed is that we are welcomed in African countries. Many Blacks leave America due to systemic racism and its overreaching impact. The way we imagined being welcomed and accepted in Africa has not proven altogether true, however. I read recently that the land that Ghana is giving away to diasporans is actually land that belongs to Ghanaians and they are not getting the profits. And you could see how that would engender resentment, even if AA didn't know.
Well that is a part of the plan,Peace
Move to Ghana please, Gambia has a secret, Gambia people killed about 300 Ghanaians couple of years ago.
"Imagined". People going to Africa with romantic, "back to the motherland" notions. The Africa some people have in their heads does not exist. Even the poorest American is likely living at a standard higher than most of the Africans. When in doubt, GO HOME PLEASE...............
Why would you go to a place, that you have NO affiliation with?
Exactly 😢our suffer from the lack of knowledge.
Wow! Thanks for the update. This is really disturbing news! By the way, the sound is too low for this video. Can barely hear you, which is annoying!
What would be helpful is if you could put the links on the sisters website or pages to educate and get the information about what is happening
Where is Blaxit on this. Where is the voice of Blaxit?
Blackjoke ?
Where are the children ?They get rid of the moms to do the unthinkable to the children . Get the children back🤯😖😣☹️. Face it they hate blank women them folks are not our kin folks…
I wish that I could talk with you about the gambia. I was stuck there for 9 months during covid. And
I would love to speak with you. I wish we could because it's some things that I know that may help.
In the investigation.
Not only black Americans…uk, European blacks as well
I heard another black UK woman body was found in a well a few days ago in the Gambia. Is this true?
I'm afraid so.
