'Zanzibar is a happy island' lol what about the Revolution a mere 3 years later
Man, your comment is so funny...
I mean didn't you see the caption? This was recorded in 1961, these guys weren't seers, these guys were film crews.
@@MrYesnt not blaming the film crew for anything more just acknowledging the irony and perhaps the complacency of the colonial authorities
This vídeo was posted in 1961
was an invasion
The Sultan of Zanzibar is related to the Sultan of Oman. Zanzibar and Oman were one and the same until the early 20th century
1:20 Nice footage of the old Union Castle liner "Kenya Castle" or her sister "Rhodesia Castle"
ماشاءاللہ
The Sultan's orange limo looks nice.
Not orange but scarlet red, just as the Sultan's flag.
is he sultan of oman?

No, of Zanzibar only. Had to flee in ca. 1963 as (almost?) the whole Asian and Arab populations were slaughtered. So the young Indian man making the silverware most likely died only two years after being filmed for this newsreel. That is somehow unsettling when you think of it.
@@fabonzanaon8177 and even more horrifying...it was all caught on tape by an Italian Film crew in a helicopter when it happened and was put into the "documentary" (not the most accurate regarding facts) Africa Addio in 1966

Yes, that is exactly where i learned it from too. Those movie excerpts are as far as I know the only existing documents of this event.
Mh Dr Hussein Mwinyi rudisha historia hii nzuri ya harufu nzuri ya Zanzibar Island of Spices. Inawezekana.
Ok, lakini tatizo nini?
Ata sisi hapa Kenyan tunafaa kufufua Mombasa
Unataka arudishe nini haswa?
Interesting island. Bless
باعو البشر من تنزانيا للانجليز كعبيد واشترو الرولس رويس..ماشاء الله
هذا يدل علا أن نفسك خبيثه َمنافق وكذاب السطان جا ومنع هذا العمل هذا العمل نعم شغل بريطانيا وامريكا وليس شغل العرب دين محمد قد منع هذا العمل َوكل شي تحملونه العرب ولأن يتمنون ان لو كانوا العرب أحسن موجودين إلى اليوم هذا والمساعدات مستمره بي المليارات وبنا المساجد والطرق والصحه بالمجان ولاكن من لا يشكر الناس لا يشكر الله والعفوا منك ولكن ما يجوز تشويه صوره المسلمين والعرب
Sad truth...
Waaw
Duu.nchiyangu Zanzibar .nakupenda Zanzibar .
N Tanzania mkuu
Kwendaaaaa
Plastic free waters
Wait this isn't Animal Crossing or Joel.
The whole purpose of this clip was to say "Arab slave traders" , he didn't say Sir Hawkins (the man of God ) and Lloyd's Mathew's the British slave traders
1:52 Is this before or after slavery?
After
Slavery never ended so... depends
@@RibeiroGames12 it ended lol
It's during capitalism. (and just before socialism!)
amd to think that 80% of every one in this video is now likely to be dead is scary
Scarier still is that a few months later some of the Arabs shown here were to end up lined up on the beach, in several pieces.
No escorts noo nothing and life was good
I am glad you Arabs are no longer in Zanzibar
About Arab you know nothing Arab wa welcome to Zanzibar for century
@@husseinismail9715 kid don’t remind me of the brutal slave trade your people inflicted on the African continent especially in east Africa for more than 13 centuries. Be grateful your kind is even allowed to stay on the African continent, Be grateful your kind is even still welcomed to the African continent cause I know your kind don’t treat us the same. Be grateful I don’t treat you the same in my nation , my people aren’t sadistic , psychopathic murders like your kind simply.
Arabs civilize you and develop your country that no one that exists before but you love the white man who slave and destroy 😅
Your so uneducated😂
