This little man speaks English french and Chinese and big heart
Plus a number of African languages.
Many Africans speak *multi-lingual western languages.*
Unfortunately not many non-Africans know this.
That little kid didn’t want to leave his friends in Kenya and go back to China. I have the coldest heart ever but that little kid touched my heart.
He speaks French
Mouss Thom dont forget mandarin and english 😱
Why do you have the coldest heart ever?
He's a beautiful and loving boy. I hope he stays that way.
You definitely don't have the coldest heart ever
No one is born racist, racism is taught and learned.
So deep and truthful.
and the only way to fix that is have the government involve which people dont like which means it can never be truly fixed
No mercy bruh they are like 5-9 what he meant was 0-3.... when you have a room full of baby they won’t be able to know race.... that experiment just proves racism is taught if anything and victimization is learned
No mercy hahahahahagahahahahagagahahahhaagagahah do u hear urself???? Nobody taught them colors hahahahahagaha
@@kaisasong1332 it's getting the government involved in first place that racism excite who do you think created & spread racism Cross the globe .

This husband and wife really love each other and their pretty baby. Peter and his best friend are some cutie pies.💕
I thought Kenya was London and Senegal is so freaking beautiful omg the media makes us believe our continent is ugly and miserable. Can't wait to tour my whole damn continent.
You won’t regret it my brother 😂 😂 pix
@@aboudtraore4235 proud to say I've been to all regions but central now.
With some current events, we should all be a little bit more like Peter and Almady. ❤️
Yes be kind to one another
This kid earned my respect and admiration. the way his parents raise him is amazing
That’s easy to understand,he will get better education in China ,especially in beijing the top city of China.His parents has seen his future if he stay there while he can’t see it.
Peter made me cry😔.. If he ever left Kenya, he will most likely to come back.

I hope Peter and Alamady stay BFF forever untill they grow old❤️
If they're not brainwash by parents
Same they are so cute ❤️I want to see them together all grow up
jhing bang I like your name
@Zainab Abbas 😒😒😲😩
@Zee Bas Chinese citizens are okay. Their government is the problem.
Liu Chen is one awesome woman! She's gorgeous, talented and a great mother!
Indeed
Peter and Almadi have a pure friendship. This is what happens when teach your kids about equality.
I don't think on even has to teach them. Just let them be humans and keep racism and prejudice away from them.
I love the conversation Peter and his mom had about staying or not...in our culture the kids don't have a say ..you just following mom
This should how kids in all africa felt. Happiness, play, learn, making friends, embrace global experience, open minded. No more wars, no more greed, perfect harmony with its majestic nature. We all can learn something beautiful each other. I wish those warlords know how simple life could be, and in that simple life, there is smile and knowledge.
As a young girl I lived in different countries and I feel so deeply for Peter.
Almady and Peter's friendship....oh my....it's so beautiful. I pray their bond will continue to be strong no matter the distance...such beautiful boys😭❤❤🤗🙏🏽
Ah the beauty of growing up in different cultures... prejudices are so fragile in front of experience. Peter and Almady’s friendship made me cry
😭😭😭😭poor Peter. Such a sweet little boy. I’m crying watching his lil heart break about having f to go back home
The lesson from those baby boys is a God sent! So important is their purity of innocence.
Peter is a lovely and impressive kid. 3 major languages at that age wow.
Africans are so welcoming, and the Chinese integrate so well. Beautiful.
@@Angette21 Are you afro Latino by any chance? 🤔
I was talking about thee mixed family, not business. I'm not Latino, I'm half black, half white. Please let's not be rude to each other.
Nissie do you think the Chinese are allowing the Africans to integrate so well now? Did you know the the chinese has thrown Africans on the street in china and are blaming them for the covid 19 virus. How would you like your father or brother to be thrown out on the street and have no place to go?
Chinese are nice when they want something from you. Being with a black man ensures that they get what they want. Please dont be so naive! STUDY YOUR HISTORY! THIS IS NOT A FAIRYTALE!!
@@thedistinguishedpeasant48 I should of known you are biracial! Sad.
@@annettereid2901 you are being prejudice.
The gold in this is carrying the baby the *AFRICAN STYLE!* 💚
i'm pretty sure they do that everywhere except in technologically advanced countries. i'm in indonesia and every mother does that.
basic human problem-solving skills: "i have baby, i have work, i cant leave baby on ground, i must use hands to work, i have cloth, hmmmm... baby + cloth = backpack baby"
i cried,No one is born racist, racism is taught and learned.
You are dumb
@@misheckshawarira8470 how is he a dumb?
Grow up please!
@@misheckshawarira8470 7 months has passed and you still can't answer the question lol pathetic 😂
I hope Peter's family never left Kenya ❤️ as a kenyan and I just fell in love with him and the mom 🌹🌹
Peter wants to stay because of his best friend Almady.
Nataka mke wakichina
I want a friend like peter such a kind boy God bless
Hello
@@faisalaziz9856 one love
We must come together
@@eldermorris5221 hello.
almady is beautiful young boy with beautiful smile calm god bless him and his friend
If only the children in the world could have been brought up this way. More exposure to one another. Class has hampered this.
If only adults can give themselves some time to learn from children the way they reason life and things around them, the world would become a super wonderful place to live in.
But unfortunately it's the opposite for the adults. What a pity.
Children that's why are sometimes called like gods.
They don't differentiate anyone just like God.
i hope peter's mindset never change.....Good kid
Beaut!!family seem so happy
May God continue to shine his light
upon them.
Assalamalikum China is really a beautiful country. 🌺🌹🌷🥀🌹🌷
It is a miracle time to watch each world corner by those TH-cam Vlog . Watching from Pakistan 🇵🇰🇵🇰😃🇵🇰🌺🥀🌹🌷
TH-cam is banned in China.
@@Crashed131963 Have you ever heard of something called VPN?
@@hadianutama5628 A VPN standing in between you and a long reeducation camp stay.
Life is good in China.
Pakistani women should marry african men..it would be lovely to watch them making babies together.
Respect to my African brothers out there. I hope china and Africa continue to develop together for a better future.
Peter what a Young legend he has big heart much love little boy
Absolutely fascinating. Thanks for making this video.
Wolof people love u all from Gambia 🇬🇲
I love how people are eating together. That’s the way it should be, everyone eating from the same pot
Nakky Dave by eating together people can get to know each other more , love each more and in some other words eating together is the best way to know the whether your friends were happy or not and can easily figure out how to help them solve the problem
Ismail yes best way to socialize.. sharing is caring
It's called grandmother style in Zambia.
beth the real world is dirty
This would be lovely BUT for the fact that Africans are hated in China,are not welcomed in their restaurants, yet in Africa they are loved,free,and welcomed? Something is sinister about this equation. These romances are an assignment
Peter speaks three languages already. Wow!
No one is born 2 hate, people learn 2 hate!
First of all I would like to say I am black, now here is what I have to say: there most be real love between these two beautiful souls, because when you look at them(the first couple) 3:37 physically there nothing that will make them stay together. They have been able to see beyound physical realities to connect, and I wish everyone to go beyound what they see because if your love is rooted in what you see, you will soon find yourself looking for someone else.
Your last sentence is so true. This is the answer to most broken hearts and also to a life full of love and passion if you are able to do like that.
Golden words!
This was so beautiful! Seriously!
My best friend is from Kenya 🇰🇪... I got married in Seychelles so Africa is alys 💕
Love from Cameroon

It's about time TH-cam recommended a video worth watching. Good stuff.
Wow! This is beautiful. Lets make the world a happy place to live. Let love supersede everything.
Smh
Ummm you know this is propaganda right??
You're just stopiid how you think this is beautiful
It's a beautiful things to see mankind to truly leaves for one of its purposes,which is to get to know one and each others and to leaves in prosperity.
Peter warmed my heart. Such a wonderful sweet boy.
23:51 - 24:33 .... That's the most profound thing I've heard out from this video. It's quite deep ! ✔️👍🏼
“...Not everyone has the chance to become a celebrity or famous, not everyone has this opportunity ... But this doesn't mean that their lives are meaningless...”
“。。每个人他不一定说有机会成为非常有名的人或者说成为获得巨大的成功，我觉得并不是所有人都会有这种机会。但是并不是说他们没有自己存在的价值。。”
这句话说得太好，很有意义了 ✔️👍🏼
I really love it when the different races love each other BUT African people and black people in general need to learn to love themselves and each other better before they turn to mixed relationships. Many black people suffer from self-hate and don't want to be in a relationship with another black person. That is not good. It doesn't make sense to promote mixed relationships when black relationships need to be promoted so much more. But I understand, this documentary is not about black relationships. It's about China-Africa relations.
The problem of black love is not only a story of self hate. Black women and men don't know how to love each other because they don't understand the importance of forming a strong family unit. Black women in the US take more pride in being the independent strong woman while the men take pride in how many hoes or side bitches they've got. The priorities are already misplaced and no relationship can thrive on such mentality or strong families built on such ideology. Sometimes the other race comes without all that and makes the relationship thrive. That is why I support black love but don't knock mixed ones.
@@somewhereinafrica7350 Yes, but I think that in America, all that lack of understanding of how they should behave or that lack of family values comes from the absence of an understanding of and an appreciation of real culture. There is a strong lack of awareness of their proper cultural role in their own society and a detachment from a responsibility towards their own community. It's the breakdown of cultural values and the lack of awareness of who they are as a people. I think I can safely say that this breakdown has happened over many generations as the result of the ancestors of these black people being forced to be slave workers and after that, there were generations who were excluded from being a part of American society. In short - they were not allowed to continue their African culture or to set up a culture or to restart a decent culture because their identity was about slave work and not about being part of a functioning community. Like I said before, I do love mixed relationships. I think they are a positive thing but not when black people think they are inherently better than being in a relationship with a black person. This causes imbalances. When it happens in a society where there is an abundance of stable, functional, decent and attractive black people, it causes profound confusion.
@@somewhereinafrica7350 By the way, I need to say no hate was intended to the Chinese or to you. Just in case you are black and you are in a mixed relationship or if you are the product of a mixed relationship. I think it is a beautiful thing. I don't want to be misunderstood. It's just that black people - in Africa and in the diaspora have got a lot of the legacy of colonialism and the legacy of slavery to overcome in their culture and in their mindset.
You are not misunderstood and thanks for bringing up the cultural difference because Africa is very diverse and the cultural chasm and value system between Africans and African Americans is wider than between Africans and Southeast Asians for instance. Any african who moves to school in the US will tell you that. The wife of one of the couples said she loves african music. Sometimes other races are curious and get immersed in your culture such that they are more similar to you than another black person from the diaspora. It's deeper than self hate or feeling better. It's more culture and values to me and sometimes circumstance.
@@somewhereinafrica7350 Yes, you are right. I have come across that a lot too. People with traditional cultural values often understand other people's traditional cultural values because they give them a similar outlook on life.
I really LOVE what i see . It's the Love and Respect for one another ..Keep on doing what you all are doing . It's a Great example for the youths . God said Love , Help and Respect each other . More Love , Light and Happiness ...
But i see many black here were racist.
Not all Chinese are involved in the politics of Africa or China. It it unfortunate that the innocent will be persecuted with the guilty. And for those who live in China, the images they see on t.v. are always negative. Same here in the U.S. negative images of Africa. I know that I am very happy to see this video. Happy to see that people can love each.
I come from Indonesia, and the third generation of Chinese descent. by the time i am writing, we are Indonesian are still in a coronavirus panic, especially the victims and economic slowdown. by the time i am writing, we are entering the sixth day of partial lockdown. what i can learn and i can see after watching the video "Faces of Africa", that China
really focus on the programmes of social protection, stressing inequalities, the reduction of poverty, vulnerability of the poor and other populations, other nations including those in Africa continent. Therefore I really understand, why the Government of China is imposing the Hong Kong National Security Law, that is actually for the sake of Hongkong people. there is no furious politics in China, and people become pragmatic to look to their bright futures, and another point that they really survive during the pandemic of covid-19
the people really want is getting rid of poverty, not the “democracy" in US's mouth
Cynthia - I know it is important to have variety because it increases the excitement of life 😇🙏🏾💜
I love his spirit
Peter and Almady’s friendship reminds me of Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s quote:” L’HOMME NAÎT BON, C’EST LA SOCIÉTÉ QUI LE CORROMPT”
Teacher Peter...God bless him 😊 This is the world l love seeing. People welcoming each other.
I can feel Peter likes the company of his friends. Also, he is treated special by his friends.
Peter and Almady are the cutest duo Ive ever seen!!!
"Home is where the heart is!" We can learn allot from (our) children! They show us what's really important in life!
👍👍🏿👍🏽👍🏻👍🏾👍🏼❣
we are all humans and as long as we care and respect each other nothing else matters. I loved the way Peter was told that "everybody is his friend" that is good bringing up but it sure broke my heart to see him leave Kenya. these are some really good documentaries. Bring us so much more to real life elsewhere, real struggles elsewhere.
Now this is what I like seeing........blacks and Chinese getting along.
Black isn't a place, a country, or a nation. Let's stop using that term to describe people and instead try to identify their origins.
@@cookie22100. Who said black is a place, country, or a nation?
@@the1trueblackgod812 calling some one Black and the another Chinese in the same sentence implies that the Chinese person is from a place called China, but the other person just gets the title of black which lacks their place of origin.
@@cookie22100. Thank you for pointing this out. I have a theory that labels such as 'black,' 'white,' 'Chinese,' and...... are used purely for the sake of convenience. It is convenient for the purpose of describing a dark-skinned individual as 'black'. It is convenient for the purpose of describing a light-complexioned individual with straight hair as 'white.' Referring to an individual with Mongoloid features as Chinese further helps us to differentiate this individual from the other two. In your comment your spoke of 'black' and 'Chinese'. You're talking apples and oranges here. One is a race and the other is a nationality. The term 'African' can be compared to 'Chinese' ......they're both nationalities. I have a question for you. If two men dressed in western garb, a black and a Chinese (Asian), robbed a bank and you were a witness to this crime and subsequently asked by the police for a description. How would you describe the perpetrators? How would you describe the black man? The one most important feature of this man would be his complexion, wouldn't you say?
I thought this was about Kenya-China...I heard a man speaking Wolof & was surprised!! I guess other African countries are included here...lol
Oh, I see, Senegal is here!!🖒 Mmmm, they're eating thieboudienne!! DELICIOUS!!!
ohh yess i guess its other cultures too, thieboudjienne saaf na

such a beautiful couples and their story. Thank you for sharing. I just found you guys and subscribed.
Thank you for showing such a good appreciation of Chinese and African cultures. Cultural hegemony is not a fatality!
@Ocean I mean it’s good to see these different cultures mix well together. This documentary appreciates Chinese and African cultures. It changes from the dominant narratives (mainly biased and disparaging towards Chinese)
Africa is the future, cheers from France for this very nice " Reportage " Long life to you all
Maneki That's a mirrored sentiment no matter what side of the lemming river we are born. Humanity is the future is he major united thinking we first need to achieve. Then we can truly start to co-exist with other intelligence and life.
Once this kid goes back to China! He will experience new pressures from his family, school, and society. Poor Kid.
This is a beautiful story love does conquer all.. However I wish the rest of the people were as genuine as this couple. Many come to get do business to profit however this story is very unique and inspiring.
Ho
i cried watching this video. why we humans always find something to divide us? the little kid was so sweet 😞 sad that he left.
1:02 wow I like that building!
@Sam • Lie that's Senegal Dakar you can even see the statue and the beginning the father is speaking wollof to those boys

Loving this one thanks for sharing very information blessed love to all knowledge is power hopefully everyone pays attention keep up the good work 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Amazing and beautiful stories.
Racism is not Innate but taught instead.
Children are such a Blessing. we could learn so much from them.
they are genuine, loving, funny, compassionate, etc.
Peter is amazing 😍❤️❤️
Long live Africa. Gateway! Great land 👍
This family is absolutely beautiful! Peace love abundance
Afrikan people are so beautiful inside and out.
OH my goodness Peter is a brilliant Kid DAMN!!!
2:11 this is the purest thing I’ve ever seen
Their about to pull in yo block
Lol
This is so beautiful how life intended not the narrative ❤
Just absolutely beautiful!
The chinese wife is so pretty.
Rhe guy is blessed to have her in his life
BigDreams FRANCE - No one would be blessed to have a degenerate like you
@@francaisetmarron lie
with everything happening in the USA right now, all the division. your video gives me hope especially with Peter and Almady. they know they are different, they just don't care.
Sadly with the US its the media inflaming divisiveness.
She is hiv positive.
I wish ppl were more like kids, without divisions, hatred, more unite, more compassionate for others. Unfortunately we haven't reached that level yet.
Chinese people are very hardworking. And Africans have their strong culture. The marriage of two great cultures would yield a powerful world. I felt for those two young boys, Chinese kid never wanted to go to China. Once separated, the Kenyan kid was heart broken. Hope, those Chinese parents realize this and bring back Peter to play and grow with Almady ..................
Billy's Chinese wife looks so young. I like how they create music together.
I like the way they presented Nairobi with its esthetics...good shoots
Mixed marriages are nice to some extent as long as it does not happen too much overbearingly especially In many homogenous places
This is the most beautiful video ever watched
I love these type of documentaries 😁😁
At least China does not shackle and beat and maim they bring development, they choose to show their humanity, am proud of how far we Africans have come
@Reina Macarena EXACTLY!!💯 And there is more incidents than that!
You are so pathetic
I am an American married to a Chinese woman. I found that the people
that live in our building, that see me come in and out of our apartment
with my wife, They know who I am but are afraid to ask my wife if I am
her husband. So they ask, if I am a friend, a business associate and the
best one was if my wife was a translator showing me around even though
they see me coming in and out of our apartment daily.
Good thing is that they don't see what's happens inside you house (.read )in out in out in out.
I cannot stop crying. What a wonderful world
I like this, This is The respectful presentation of Africa.
This world wasn’t kind to Africans throughout the history at all. I really hope it will change! I wish the best to the African nations. I hope Chinese-African relationships will not fail like those between the West...
So do I, this is something I want to see increase.🙏
By nature. Whites and blacks will never get along.
Why can't Africa rise on its own..it always needs some other country to do for them. Africa has all the talent and resources but no self confidence
Happy for the couple here in but China you aren’t fooling me your just using these people for your own disgusting agendas
Michael Lawrence please read with understanding WHERE did I say it’s a problem to be in an interracial relationship WHEREEEEE?
Michael Lawrence u really don’t comprehend well I clearly stated China = the Government are using these ppl for their own agenda I never said anyone is following their government to be with Africans haha! What In the world. The government is using their relationship for their own agenda what’s so hard to understand in that? I never said the couple is following the government to marry the African race that sentence by itself don’t even make sense smh Just 🛑
Michael Lawrence I could care less why people date other races my point was people are being used by their government and people may be too blind to see that but I am not blind to their agenda.I never asked about why people marry one another that’s not my business. I am just stating that the government not even just China are using interracial couples for their own agendas that’s it. Why are you trying to talk about something that I am not talking about? People can love a a tree or an ant for any reasons my point was the government is using their relationship my gosh you got some serious issues trying to make something more than it really is
This I how propaganda works.
@@lawrenceofarabia4659 if you go to Africa and see what Chinese are doing you will understand her very well, and she is right. Though this shows the beauty of human being, trust me if you knew what Chinese are are doing against Africa you will think twice. Chinese are sending all their junks in Africa. Things that will kill people in China, they repackage it, rebrand it, and send to Africa. They make conserved meat out of dead animals and sell it in Africa. They waste nothing. So when you don't know please learn before you position yourself
Propaganda or do, this kid Peter is what we need. I hope he grows up and do wonderful things for humanity.
The innocence of kids before nurture pollutes their mindset.🥰😍
The best measure to against racist is improving nation people's quality ! high education, more engineer, more scientist, less stealer, less jail person, more respect!
So cute little man ... ❤️❤️❤️
beautiful story love.
Minute 7 so heart touching of little 2 boys ❤️
