What caught my attention is that the women seem to carry their hair natural, those with the Afro hair, though not sure if that is the norm in that environment 🤔
Bula!! Yes it's the norm here in Fiji. We even carry combs with us in our bags to do touch ups if needed 😂. We're very proud of our hair. But there are times when we'll switch it up just for fun but it's quite comon to see older women with natural hair. It's only been recently that more younger women have embraced the natural look.
Please don’t call them black they are not black. They skin color is brown and they are aboriginals of Fiji. And yes we are melanated people all over the globe.

God the Father loves you so much that He sent Holy Sinless Jesus (His Holy Son) to earth to be born of a virgin.Then, to grow up and die on a cross for our sins. He was in the tomb for 3 days, then Father God raised Holy and Sinless Jesus Christ (Y'shua) to Life! He appeared to people and went back to Heaven. We must receive Sinless Jesus sincerely to be God's child(John 1:12).After we get saved by grace through faith in Christ, if we truly love the Lord Jesus Christ, then we will obey Jesus(John 14:15). Mark 1:15 "And saying, the time is fulfilled, & the kingdom of God is at hand: Repent ye, and believe the gospel." Jesus said in John 14:15 "If you love Me, keep My commandments. "There's a real hell. It says in Revelation 21:8 "But for the cowardly, & unbelieving, & abominable, and murderers, & immoral persons sorcerers & idolaters & all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire & brimstone..." Please sincerely receive Holy Jesus & put your true faith and trust in Him today and please repent. Will you have a Real encounter with Holy Lord Jesus (Y'shua is His Hebrew Name) and stay in a Genuine relationship with Him daily please?

@@razackchrist5096 Haha- the people I am referring to know. My prerogative to invent any word I chose to on this planet. Definitely not American. How about you?
For your information my friend , Fijians don't have roots in Africa. DNA and it's language points to Taiwan. Fijians use the Tagalog vowels when they speak. It's origins trace back to Asia namely Taiwan. This vowels is strongly used in Japan as well. The Tagalog vowels which is also used across the Polynesia archipelago is (A,E,I,O,U) which for a start does not exist in any part of Africa. Secondly , our DNA which is the ultimate proof shows no direct link to Africa but Asia and the South Pacific and in most cases , Amazon. If there was any DNA link , then it would probably be a one off night stand type thing. People in Fiji are not well informed of this issue because they rely on hear say stories over kava or similar type setting and make decisions based on similar vowel sounds as suggested with the "Tanganyika" fib where in our language, it's pronounced " Tagani-ika).Two separate words describing fish in a sack and not one straight word which would have sound Taqanika (Notice the "Q" in this spelling) as oppose to the above from Africa. Our DNA points to Asia where our numbers are so similar to that of Taiwan , Filipinas , down to Indonesia. None of it exist in any part of Africa. Our double decked canoes in the past use to carry more than 3000 men and women. Their features probably changed somewhere between Indonesia and Melanesia. Though Fijians look like Melanesian's,( Dark Skinned ) their culture and language are that of Polynesia.(Lighter Skinned) Melanesians don't have chiefly systems and protocols as those in Polynesia like The Kingdom Tonga for an example. Melanesia just have like some sort of a headman's of its group similar to a chief but that's all there is to it, A chief. Watching this video makes me sad because of the mis information these market vendors are carrying around as if it's true when It's not. That tour guide lady was totally oblivious to the potential damage she could be causing us Fijians to the outside world. Govt needs to put laws in place to control those type's of promotions where an inexperienced individual is involved. I am saying this from a sincere heart who has business interest in Fiji as well. I have shown this video to friends and so far one even responded with disgust and said that lady doesn't even know the Fintel building but she knows how to rot a tourist. On the same token, your video is the first where I've seen someone mention the term 'Black" Fijians. It's usually Melanesians or Polynesians. We weren't slaves in history but fierce warriors who established itself in Fiji some thousand years back and which was called" Fisi" by the Tongans or "Viti" in Fijian. These three countries are related one way or the other, Samoa, Tonga and Fiji. I hope this should shed some light as who we truly we are as Fijians. Have nothing against Africans either but rather not allow people carrying on fib hear say stories where it has become somewhat real to those market vendors. Goodness knows how far those stories have gone. Please stick to the DNA and vowels theory as proof, that's all. Peace. Here's one proof of many th-cam.com/video/ex603AVm3TE/w-d-xo.html
Nice history of our roots and where we came from. There are so many conflicting theories about our origin and where we came from. Archeologically proven that we came from Vanuatu. Prof Paddy Nunn whose research on lapita is accepted now as our transition out from Vanuatu to Viti. Beyond that is unknown. Yet this is after the tukuni and legends passed through generations that we came from Africa. Now with the new technological system to trace where you come from it is much easier to know your roots. Forensic technology introduced us to the DNA . But DNA could still be inaccurate based on what is fed into the devise. For example if one is using Ancestry DNA to know his/her identity the requirement is to complete a questionnaire. Your full name, ethnicity , sex, DOB, parents identity etc. All these info would then be fed into a database along with your specimen. If someone is falsifying his/her data the outcome obviously is wrong in spite of the specimen given. I would rather need more clarity on what type of DNA testing is used on tracking our roots.
@@orzyrok6849 Valid point but the small percentage of Asia you see in that picture is due to the fact of mixed blood over the years. If you're still confused, then don't rely on professor who or you'll get stuck with more questions but focus on the second proof. It's linguistic connections. We Fijians and so does Polynesia not necessarily Melanesia use what is called the Tagalog Vocabulary. Meaning our language was created from certain vowel forms. And that specific vowel is what is known from Asia as the Tagalog Voc where countries like Japan, Phillipian's, Taiwan and Korea and certain part's of china uses them. It is what is known as the Tagalog vowels (A,E,I,O,U) .These vowels can also be mixed up to create a language as its evident with Japan for an example, (A ,I,U,O,E).The bottom line is these five characters are the foundations that were created in Taiwan as far as our history is concerned to create a language back then. The Fijian language is depicted from these five vowels. Vowels that belongs to the Asian region as in our case Taiwan. This in itself seals our question as to where we originate from regardless of other known theories. When our journey started, our feature characteristics were quite different then. Their migration pack travelled and occupied certain regions in Asia but settling in each then moving on after decades of settlement. Even though their characteristic features changed towards the end of it's journey, it's lingo and what's left of it's DNA is proof of who they really were originally by blood. Our vowels is a massive giveaway. Our folk songs were actually referring to them that came down to Fiji back then. It was how it was interpreted that got things mixed up. Look at the Whippy's, Brown family etc for an example. Their features have changed over the years just a few decades ago. Fijians should try learning Japanese and see how easy it is because of these vowels let alone it's culture which is uncannily similar in a lot of areas. Hope it makes sense. Here's another hint: Q: Where did the nick name " Bui" comes from? Answer: That's the same nick name used in Taiwan, China and certain Asian countries today. Nothing any professor can take away. How it got there , Ill leave it for you to digest.
@@ottohoddhats off. interesting and complex indeed trying to put pieces together in that jigsaw puzzle. DNA, Language, culture, traits, skin , perhaps the bible are sources readily available to pursue that path. Obviously It takes more to understand and to know the truth. . Thanks anyway for all the efforts. I think this find is worth a talk over a bowl of tanoa, something to share amongst the taukei and others, even worth an hr in the tv talanoa program. DNA test is programmed in such a way that would allocate certain % of dark skinned with those in Africa. Similarly fair and light skinned with those from the Caucasian mountains. This is why I'm still in doubt using the DNA testing to track our roots. Those who claimed to be the custodians of the promise land are the inventors of the Ancestry DNA forensic device. It's done to trace their lineage back to the bible to ascertain their identity due to recent backlash from others claiming they are not. That's a topic for another day. Moce mada.
@@orzyrok6849 Welcome ..just a quick note. There are other vocab's within Asia as well and our Tagalog vocab is amongst them. These vocabs represents people of different cultures but are all related just as we are in Fiji . Oh "Oi-awe " (Tagalog) is another common Chinese word with the same reference as us in the pacific. Funny isn't it? ..but it's true. There's more but I'd rather end it here, Vinaka!
We get your point . You obviously want zero association with anything African. You may not have ever been enslaved but Fijians along with African experience racism due to hair texture and skin color. If you don’t believe me, go travel around a bit more and see how you will be treated like a black African
The Chinese come from china and are very good farmers and some of them have little retail shop all around the country. They live in Fiji have children, some stay some go back.
Yes that's true but in Fiji's Case , there Fijians with origins to China just as our connections to Taiwan. Fijians though came through a different route way earlier but not in one heat. Their migration pack settled along the way. As for our Fiji Chinese vendors, they came after we Fijians settled in Fiji. Just as it was with the indian's. Nothing wrong with that either except we came way before them. All are considered Fijians. But we use DNA proof and linguistics connections to point out who is who in the whole pack than just Quote:/ "Cannot deny the fact that they are all over the world." Unquote/
@@ottohodd Im not talking about the origins of Vitians but in response to the question posed by the ytuber when seeing that Chinese vendor in the Suva market. They are Chinese from mainland China just like the Chinese ppl assimilated all over the world. Was he sarcastic in his comment about them? maybe , maybe not.
@@orzyrok6849 Oh sorry ..misunderstood you. All gud. He was looking from an African point I guess. Nothing to do with us. If sacasium played a role then probably that's how they roll not necessarily us.
@@ottohodd YES: they are the original Asian with others native blacks living in that region. Chinese, Koreans, Japanese, Vietnamese etc etc = they all know. the root history of their culture. admitting it is another. Europe and India: all know they co-op a black culture when they migrated into land. ✔️ 👀whitewashing is literally a word for a reason. South East Asia is a fallout of what happen in the Americas: 🔥🔥👍🔥 The fallout wars in the Americas dramatically change the landscape of the planet that story has never been told.
Really? Back in the 70s, I remember many if not most Black people wore their hair naturally. This current generation lacks a sense of self. Everything now is fake from the hair, eyelashes, fingernails and the list goes on. They try their best to look like their oppressors. It's just disgusting.
Bula in Fijian is not only hello but also an acknowledgement of the life one has so if you say boils means ladies private part...then I say human life starts there..continuation of human lives depend on our mothers..

Yessss finally someone with common sense. These people ar won’t Africans. That out of Africa theory is crap. Brown skin curly hair is everywhere and just because we have it don’t mean we African.
@@cinnamonstar808 Japanese , Korean, Asian, Chinese etc they all have same skin , hair and phenotype but are not the same people and all did not originate from the same place. These melanated people in America, Fiji, Australia, Papua etc they are not from Africa that is crap.

@@cinnamonstar808 oh cut your "F"ing crap we are not Africans and that's for sure. If we Melanesians are Africans, then a Korean person or a Swedish person is also an African. Does that make sense to you?

bula - hello. vinaka - thank u
Its Bula - hello and Vinaka - thank you.
For your information my friend , Fijians don't have roots in Africa. DNA and it's language points to Taiwan. Fijians use the Tagalog vowels when they speak. It's origins trace back to Asia namely Taiwan. This vowels is strongly used in Japan as well. The Tagalog vowels which is also used across the Polynesia archipelago is (A,E,I,O,U) which for a start does not exist in any part of Africa. Secondly , our DNA which is the ultimate proof shows no direct link to Africa but Asia and the South Pacific and in most cases , Amazon. If there was any DNA link , then it would probably be a one off night stand type thing. People in Fiji are not well informed of this issue because they rely on hear say stories over kava or similar type setting and make decisions based on similar vowel sounds as suggested with the "Tanganyika" fib where in our language, it's pronounced " Tagani-ika).Two separate words describing fish in a sack and not one straight word which would have sound Taqanika (Notice the "Q" in this spelling) as oppose to the above from Africa. Our DNA points to Asia where our numbers are so similar to that of Taiwan , Filipinas , down to Indonesia. None of it exist in any part of Africa. Our double decked canoes in the past use to carry more than 3000 men and women. Their features probably changed somewhere between Indonesia and Melanesia. Though Fijians look like Melanesian's,( Dark Skinned ) their culture and language are that of Polynesia.(Lighter Skinned) Melanesians don't have chiefly systems and protocols as those in Polynesia like The Kingdom Tonga for an example. Melanesia just have like some sort of a headman's of its group similar to a chief but that's all there is to it, A chief. Watching this video makes me sad because of the mis information these market vendors are carrying around as if it's true when It's not. That tour guide lady was totally oblivious to the potential damage she could be causing us Fijians to the outside world. Govt needs to put laws in place to control those type's of promotions where an inexperienced individual is involved. I am saying this from a sincere heart who has business interest in Fiji as well. I have shown this video to friends and so far one even responded with disgust and said that lady doesn't even know the Fintel building but she knows how to rot a tourist. On the same token, your video is the first where I've seen someone mention the term 'Black" Fijians. It's usually Melanesians or Polynesians. We weren't slaves in history but fierce warriors who established itself in Fiji some thousand years back and which was called" Fisi" by the Tongans or "Viti" in Fijian. These three countries are related one way or the other, Samoa, Tonga and Fiji. I hope this should shed some light as who we truly we are as Fijians. Have nothing against Africans either but rather not allow people carrying on fib hear say stories where it has become somewhat real to those market vendors. Goodness knows how far those stories have gone. Please stick to the DNA and vowels theory as proof, that's all. Peace. Here's one proof of many th-cam.com/video/ex603AVm3TE/w-d-xo.html
Nice history of our roots and where we came from. There are so many conflicting theories about our origin and where we came from. Archeologically proven that we came from Vanuatu. Prof Paddy Nunn whose research on lapita is accepted now as our transition out from Vanuatu to Viti. Beyond that is unknown. Yet this is after the tukuni and legends passed through generations that we came from Africa.
Now with the new technological system to trace where you come from it is much easier to know your roots. Forensic technology introduced us to the DNA . But DNA could still be inaccurate based on what is fed into the devise. For example if one is using Ancestry DNA to know his/her identity the requirement is to complete a questionnaire. Your full name, ethnicity , sex, DOB, parents identity etc. All these info would then be fed into a database along with your specimen. If someone is falsifying his/her data the outcome obviously is wrong in spite of the specimen given. I would rather need more clarity on what type of DNA testing is used on tracking our roots.
@@orzyrok6849 Valid point but the small percentage of Asia you see in that picture is due to the fact of mixed blood over the years. If you're still confused, then don't rely on professor who or you'll get stuck with more questions but focus on the second proof. It's linguistic connections. We Fijians and so does Polynesia not necessarily Melanesia use what is called the Tagalog Vocabulary. Meaning our language was created from certain vowel forms. And that specific vowel is what is known from Asia as the Tagalog Voc where countries like Japan, Phillipian's, Taiwan and Korea and certain part's of china uses them. It is what is known as the Tagalog vowels (A,E,I,O,U) .These vowels can also be mixed up to create a language as its evident with Japan for an example,
(A ,I,U,O,E).The bottom line is these five characters are the foundations that were created in Taiwan as far as our history is concerned to create a language back then. The Fijian language is depicted from these five vowels. Vowels that belongs to the Asian region as in our case Taiwan. This in itself seals our question as to where we originate from regardless of other known theories. When our journey started, our feature characteristics were quite different then. Their migration pack travelled and occupied certain regions in Asia but settling in each then moving on after decades of settlement. Even though their characteristic features changed towards the end of it's journey, it's lingo and what's left of it's DNA is proof of who they really were originally by blood. Our vowels is a massive giveaway. Our folk songs were actually referring to them that came down to Fiji back then. It was how it was interpreted that got things mixed up. Look at the Whippy's, Brown family etc for an example. Their features have changed over the years just a few decades ago. Fijians should try learning Japanese and see how easy it is because of these vowels let alone it's culture which is uncannily similar in a lot of areas. Hope it makes sense. Here's another hint: Q: Where did the nick name " Bui" comes from? Answer: That's the same nick name used in Taiwan, China and certain Asian countries today. Nothing any professor can take away. How it got there , Ill leave it for you to digest.
@@ottohoddhats off. interesting and complex indeed trying to put pieces together in that jigsaw puzzle. DNA, Language, culture, traits, skin , perhaps the bible are sources readily available to pursue that path. Obviously It takes more to understand and to know the truth. . Thanks anyway for all the efforts. I think this find is worth a talk over a bowl of tanoa, something to share amongst the taukei and others, even worth an hr in the tv talanoa program.
DNA test is programmed in such a way that would allocate certain % of dark skinned with those in Africa. Similarly fair and light skinned with those from the Caucasian mountains. This is why I'm still in doubt using the DNA testing to track our roots. Those who claimed to be the custodians of the promise land are the inventors of the Ancestry DNA forensic device. It's done to trace their lineage back to the bible to ascertain their identity due to recent backlash from others claiming they are not. That's a topic for another day. Moce mada.
@@orzyrok6849 Welcome ..just a quick note. There are other vocab's within Asia as well and our Tagalog vocab is amongst them. These vocabs represents people of different cultures but are all related just as we are in Fiji . Oh "Oi-awe " (Tagalog) is another common Chinese word with the same reference as us in the pacific. Funny isn't it? ..but it's true. There's more but I'd rather end it here, Vinaka!
We get your point . You obviously want zero association with anything African. You may not have ever been enslaved but Fijians along with African experience racism due to hair texture and skin color. If you don’t believe me, go travel around a bit more and see how you will be treated like a black African

Vanakam from india
Thank you vinakam (vanakkam it's a tamil words)
i would like to i will tell my friend to go to figi, but i wonder wich is the cheaper way
Through Australia
Through Australia and Los Angeles is the easiest route.
The Chinese come from china and are very good farmers and some of them have little retail shop all around the country. They live in Fiji have children, some stay some go back.
Those Chinese looking vendors are from China just like in Ivory Cost where you from. Cannot deny the fact that they are all over the world.
Yes that's true but in Fiji's Case , there Fijians with origins to China just as our connections to Taiwan. Fijians though came through a different route way earlier but not in one heat. Their migration pack settled along the way. As for our Fiji Chinese vendors, they came after we Fijians settled in Fiji. Just as it was with the indian's. Nothing wrong with that either except we came way before them. All are considered Fijians. But we use DNA proof and linguistics connections to point out who is who in the whole pack than just Quote:/ "Cannot deny the fact that they are all over the world." Unquote/
@@ottohodd Im not talking about the origins of Vitians but in response to the question posed by the ytuber when seeing that Chinese vendor in the Suva market. They are Chinese from mainland China just like the Chinese ppl assimilated all over the world. Was he sarcastic in his comment about them? maybe , maybe not.
@@orzyrok6849 Oh sorry ..misunderstood you. All gud. He was looking from an African point I guess. Nothing to do with us. If sacasium played a role then probably that's how they roll not necessarily us.
@@ottohodd YES: they are the original Asian with others native blacks living in that region.
Chinese, Koreans, Japanese, Vietnamese etc etc = they all know. the root history of their culture. admitting it is another.
Europe and India: all know they co-op a black culture when they migrated into land. ✔️ 👀whitewashing is literally a word for a reason.
South East Asia is a fallout of what happen in the Americas: 🔥🔥👍🔥 The fallout wars in the Americas dramatically change the landscape of the planet
that story has never been told.
Their hair is softer than ours in the African continent that's why they don't wear wigs.
We africans should learn to take care of our own hair. Just how our ancestors did it. My tanzanian mom had an afro just like these women
Really? Back in the 70s, I remember many if not most Black people wore their hair naturally. This current generation lacks a sense of self. Everything now is fake from the hair, eyelashes, fingernails and the list goes on. They try their best to look like their oppressors. It's just disgusting.
Crap!! They just love their natural hair not like you African, especially Ghana and Nigerai, and African American women
You are not African.
Plus, there is no such thing as one type of hair in Africa which is a CONTINENT.
@@razackchrist5096 if am not african what am i. And we are talking about the aboriginal africans.
"Boula" is the word for woman's private part in ki-kongo ... I didn't stop lighing
Bula
Maga. Pronounced munga is women's private part 🤣
You be congolewe from Brazzaville writting Boula and not Bula
Bula in Fijian is not only hello but also an acknowledgement of the life one has so if you say boils means ladies private part...then I say human life starts there..continuation of human lives depend on our mothers..

Why travel abroad to make racist videos? Fijians are Melanesian people, same as Papuans. Nothing to do with Africans whatsoever.
so you agree Earth is a black planet. 👍 where would they get that brown from? NOT 🟫UPS
all the continents and islands are BLACK OWNED from... ah day 6. thank you.
Yessss finally someone with common sense. These people ar won’t Africans. That out of Africa theory is crap. Brown skin curly hair is everywhere and just because we have it don’t mean we African.
@@cinnamonstar808 Japanese , Korean, Asian, Chinese etc they all have same skin , hair and phenotype but are not the same people and all did not originate from the same place. These melanated people in America, Fiji, Australia, Papua etc they are not from Africa that is crap.
I don’t really understand why White peoples with zero degrees in Ethnology always have the balls show their ignorance for the whole world to see
I know Social media makes everyone a Ph.D candidate
Even those who dropped out of high school
@@cinnamonstar808 oh cut your "F"ing crap we are not Africans and that's for sure. If we Melanesians are Africans, then a Korean person or a Swedish person is also an African. Does that make sense to you?
