- Hi, I'm Tinesha and I recorded this video four months ago on January 25th in Geneva, Switzerland...my heart was broken for the plight of black Americans in America. Who could have imagined that four months later to the date, on May 25th the police would take the life of yet another black man breaking hearts all over this country - again.

This made me cry because so many of us experienced these same feelings in life. I'm so disappointed in America and its growing each and every day. All I know to do is pray
I grew up in Geneva and I am so proud and have felt like this growing up there about diversity. I was so shocked when I moved to a VERY WHITE American Chicago suburb. And my shock has only gotten worse over the past 10 years....
Thank you for sharing your story with us and being so real. It's so crazy how pervasive racism is and how it burdens so many people wether they know it or not.
"People walking around with the audacity to feel safe." This is a topic close to my heart as my Mother lived a part of her life during apartheid. The last couple of weeks have been so heavy💔
I really love this video, bc I did born in Switzerland but I’m an Albanian Muslim and I always felt safe in Switzerland, the people here are very nice compare to America. I‘m not saying Switzerland is perfect and doesn’t has racism or discrimination but it’s not that big like in America. I have to say that we have a lot of people in Switzerland with different skin color, Muslims or different nationalities, respecting each other. Sending love to u, stay yourself ❤️
Geneve is the most multicultural city in Switzerland but in this country are all welcome!!!
God being Black is beautiful but so exhausting. I’d love to feel safe being Black in America. Jeez, that’s why I love ATL
As a white South African from Johannesburg, living in Switzerland. I can understand the situation of being in a non racial society like Switzerland has. It’s very open and based on a hamanetarien level. Sending love and peace to all humanity! ❤❤❤
I missed out on a trip to Berlin due to my fear of traveling while black. My job was gonna send me there for two months. The PTSD is real.
Geneva has 40% foreigners, so.... welcome to the multi cultural
Thank you for this video 🙏🏾
I just realised that PTSD is exactly what so many of us experience. Actually I feel totally relaxed only in Africa 💚💛❤️
You touched me sis. I'm going to share this.
Thank you
I love the authenticity in this video!
Wow, Tinesha! This is so powerful. I don't if it's just me but have you notice that as we try to make ourselves smaller, others keep expanding? There's never enough.
"Other's keep expanding"...OMG Yes!
Hi I'm half Swiss half Thai, I faced really few racism, my best friend is also mixed but she's half Burkinabe and half Swiss she faced more than me in this. Racism is everywhere but we feel blessed because the majority of people are supportive and our country is really multicultural even amongst white Swiss with our languages, each Canton have its own culture. I live in the Canton of Vaud and I feel accepted even by the country side folks, I'm part of a youth group and most of people from these youth groups are white (youth groups are mostly a country side culture in my canton) and never in those gathering of youth group I felt discriminated against and I'm the only poc in mine. All of my childhood friends are white but they are like brothers to me, police men when they come to our village to control people for the pandemic (we were not supposed to be more than 5 in the same open space) they did control our IDs but they knew we always hang out with each other and we always had nice chat with them. And our education system is truly a blessing (except for our language teaching, I was lucky enough to have a native English speaker as a teacher). I'm not religious but even in church I feel accepted (I go to church once a year for the Toussaint celebration it's a holiday to celebrate the dead and the Saints it's like the Halloween celebration, same day but more religious).
I'm rambling bc I may be a little bit tipsy
Thanks for sharing and LoL at you rambling because you may be a little tipsy.
❤😢 Thank you for sharing. Hopefully our efforts and those of our parents, grandparents, etc. will eventually lead to such comfort here at home. I grew up in a military household as well and my parents did a great job insulating us from a bunch of the reality but they never let us forget to stay vigilant.
This is so touching , They really don't understand what it means to be black in America.. it's so sad , thanks for sharing sis , you made me cry too..💞
Thank you so much for watching!!!
Beautiful 🥰😘
Thank you for sharing...seriously.This is why travel is the best education. Just simply getting out OUT and being able to realise you dont have to take that shit and that's not how it is everywhere...I've never had alot of money,still dont we make like 50 grand a year now in our I'd thirties obviously I'm white so not the same but. I made it a priority to travel and I try so hard to explain and encourage people who just feel it's not for them and they cant so it to travel because it opens your fucking eyes
Sadly it's not the case everywhere here in Switzerland...
Racism is thriving, especially in rural areas :/
This is touching...especially during times like these...😌
Only thing in switzerland is.... u get looked at how hard u can work!!!! And how much u know..... then how much u earn
Listen!!! Always KNOW that the TOURIST EXPERIENCE is NOT the same as the experience of living in a place with the locals, doing the same things that the locals do day in day out.
As tourists, one is ALWAYS WELCOME because of the DOLLARS!!!
When someone follows your blog and thinks "oh Geneva, or Berlin or Paris is soooo friendly I am going to move there" and then actually does that, then that person will get to find out HOW RACIST the locals truly are. It's going to be a RUDE AWAKENING. I'm talking out of experience!
Listen!!! You may be new to this channel or my videos...but I am an avid worldwide traveler. I go on a vacation once a month...so trust me I know the difference between being a traveler and a local and how any experience is never going to be the same as a fully immersed experience. So as a traveler who's been to many countries and many places I am speaking from astute observation and general vibration. Trust...Geneva felt different. Trust...another black man was executed in America. And if anyone moves to a city/place/zoo because of what they watched on my vlog - they are STUPID...they have more issues than being influenced by a video on youtube. Are you serious right now? You watched a vlog and then moved? wow.
and liking your own comment doesn't give it credibility.
@@FunandBudget It's just your ignorance talking. Move to Geneva or any other of such places, live there for six months and then halla back at me.
No and no.
@@FunandBudget Ms Ndingere does have a point. African migrants are treated badly all throughout Europe. You'll be okay since you're american and affluent.
Hi Tinesha for always keeping it 100%. Thanks for sharing your experience
Wow sis!!!! This was powerful! This made me emotional... i wont cry, i wont cry!
Don't cry, girllll * bites fist * be strong!
The Fun and Budget Act giiiirrrrllll 😪😩
*In regards to yourself or child don't let anyone make you feel like undeserving but most blacks need to realize the ones who not Uncle Tom's to leave a place where they don't deserve us period*
Thank you so much for sharing this!! My heart truly aches for the pain and suffering that is constantly happening! It is not fair and I am sick and tired of feeling sick and tired! 😡
I am tired of feeling scared every time I kiss my husband goodbye before he goes to work not knowing if he will return home today! Every time I see my children growing up to be strong black men and someone feeling threatened by the color of their skin. Life shouldn’t be lived with these fears because someone’s skin color should never be a topic of conversation. 🖤
Oh wow, I love hearing about that 😍 I love being black, but I always said if it was divided by race groups, I would go to the group where it was a little bit of everyone from every race. That's the world that I dream. I will definitely add this to my place to visit. Thanks! 😘
Geneva is the canton(state) in switzerland with like the highest crime and sexual delict rates. It's also the place in switzerland with the highest muslim population
Nope this is canton of Stan gall go Check on office fédéral des statistiques
Wow 😩 this is breaking my heart. The 911 part😭. God I pray this sht ends because I’m tired man
1st love to enjoying this videos!!!
💯💯👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
PTSD like a mugggg!!!
Come to France we got more people
This was an amazing video. I cried and its sad the world we live. I'm so sorry you had to go thru that. Have a great week
Thank you so much!
SWITZERLAND 🇨🇭 IS A VERY BORING COUNTRY .
@@kibwengoientombe5556 then that means you are a very boring person to expect an entire country to perform for you. Perform for yourself.
@@FunandBudget I LIVED IN FRANCE 🇫🇷 FOR MANY YEARS. MOST OF FRENCH PEOPLE ARE THINKING THE SAME ABOUT SWITZERLAND 🇨🇭...ANYWAY, ENJOY IT.
I HAVE to share this very POWERFUL video about the attack on our psyche here in America. And the juxtapositions, wow...
That's exactly what it is...the attack on our psyche - the head games America plays with us on purpose...thanks for those words 💖
@@FunandBudget Sis, this was all you. Thank YOU!
Aww very emotional video really appreciate you sharing it 🙏🏽❤️
Wow, I need and want to travel the world to experience life. Awwwww😢😢😢.
I'm happy your son has since recovered 🙏🏾. I understand what you are saying, it hurts. I think it's envy and it causes all sorts of problems... -Proverbs 14:30
So you are telling me we swiss arent racists in general?
I am glad to hear that :-)
I'm not saying that...I wasn't there long enough to say if Swiss are or are not - but what I am saying is I didn't feel the overt racism or see some of the effects of racism that I see in America but hadn't even really noticed until I visited Geneva.
@@FunandBudget Oh Yeah that makes sense, hoping for the best for you with a new president :)
Wow, thanks for sharing your story! You have enlightened me!
My heart goes out to you, Andre, and Gwen...life is so precious. We have a right to get help for our family and friends. I think we are going to see more diversity in the police departments. How can we get people in their neighborhoods to serve and protect in their neighborhoods as well? There needs to be abundant and consistent monies be put into these very communities for starters. There needs to be accountability and transparency for how the monies are being used.
Sooo true. I go to estate sales/fancy stores etc with just my wristlet because I don’t want to give anyone any ideas because I already know how they see me. The trauma is second nature 😔
Wow so powerful! Thank you for sharing!
Awesome video. So much I want to say but I will sum it up to I totally agree with you.
So deep...So true! Love this video!!
😢 thanks sharing this. God bless you 😇
Thanks so much🌻
Say word!
This!!🙏🙏✊
💜💜💜😕
All of your experiences seem to be in you head, it doesn't seem like they are based in reality
All experiences are in our heads...its called perspective. Thanks for watching even if you couldn't relate.
