There are no clouds or pollution or artificial light, and when you walk around you feel like you’re “in“ the sky.The people I met were generous and welcoming. God bless those who suffer.

I always think it’s really interesting that any time a film crew documents native tribal people, no matter what corner of the world, the tribal people almost invariably take them in, slaughter one of their precious animals, and share them with the documentary crew
well because it doesn't happen that often that they're actually visited. If there are any tourists, the tourists usually wanna see the places nearby and not them. But the documentary crew actually go to see them and talk to them, want to hear what they've got to say, show interest in them and their opinions, culture. For them it's like once in a lifetime event. Some might be camera shy and don't wanna be filmed but for other it's like you've shown them a lot of respect for actually caring about their lives and perspectives, so they definitely wanna show respect back to you... in many countries it's a shame to have a visitor and not offer something to drink, something to eat. In my culture it's a shame not to host your guest properly as well and I'm from a tiny country in the lesser known part of Europe. If I told my mom I had visitors and she'd ask me what did I give them to drink or eat and I would be like "oops I forgot" she would curse me out and be dissapointed with me :D
Peace, mercy and blessings of God Almighty This issue is a conspiracy on the part of the colonizer who does not want to leave Mauritania alone and always tries to differentiate between the people of the one country. Slavery is over and now it does not exist. The situation now is as follows: The group that was enslaved, of course, is now the poorest and the most ignorant, and this is normal. They were slaves and they had a lot to rise. Today a media war is being waged to tarnish the image of Mauritania, especially the white Arab element The freedom fighter, Biram, who claims to defend human rights, why does he not talk about slavery in the Wolof, Soninke, and Polar society, Alesso Mauritanians, why does he focus only on whites? He moves from abroad to implement a foreign agenda I hope that anyone who has watched this impartial video knows that it does not convey our reality. The Mauritanians live in peace with each other and will remain so forever. I also ask you to delve into the research without prejudice or to make a prior decision. Look at the Arabic and French sources and everything will listen to the other opinion and opinion
This is heartbreaking. My friends from Pakistan and he says slavery, particularly child slavery is very common there as well. Many slaves work as domestic help or as bonded labourers for feudal lords because the country still practices fuedalism.
With broken economic systems (aided by corrupt Western economic policies) people have no choice. You become a permanent housemaid/worker or you starve. If you are old enough to walk and talk then you are old enough to earn bread to eat. Its just the reality.
@Baby Sama 712 Muhammed kept slaves , also sex slaves ..the word "Slave" comes from the white Slavic non Muslim people from Eastern Europe , captured by Muslims and brought back to the Caliphate as "slaves" ..in some cases , men were castrated and there were other cases of the salve's children being taken into Muslim households to be brought up as Muslims ..this is all in the three scared books if you care to look . Regarding the African slave trade , white Europeans , Christians or not , were at the tail end of the slave trade story ( actually it's still going on today anyway , in a different form ) ..accounts say Arabs have always traded in humans , but it was also the white Europeans who made it "illegal " and "banned " it worldwide . but .of course , true Muslims only follow Sharia law don't they ?
That artist was incredibly talented!! I hope he has someone to help him sell his work, especially if it is sold online, he could make a lot of money. I would love to purchase a painting from him.
Having read your comment before I started it, i agree it’s definitely worthwhile. I’d probably appraise it at fairly decent (but mostly makes me think.....you really should try to watch a lot more documentaries) lol 🙃
@@ethanbolen4425 lol, i was totally just jokin with ya, mate😉. But yeah, I’m not really sure what yer into. I think if I tried just randomly listing some, it’d be really hard to justify know what to include or leave out. Plus, I’m into alotta stuff I find challenging and perspective-expanding, but many people might find disturbing (i.e. with subject matter that could range from anything like the holocost or other war crimes, to the awful history of mental health care in the US. Anything. Endless facets of random, bizzare stuff I might find fascinating. If there’s a particular subject you’re interested, I might be able to suggest one (or some). I just rewatched a great documentary I saw years ago that’s mostly about suicide (in San Francisco) called “The Bridge.” Outstanding, but pretty dark & haunting. I dunno-a good upbeat one saw yesterday about Artificial Intelligence and the ancient board game GO was called “Alpha Go.” It was really incredible But I’ve seen hundreds, maybe thousands of you just count TV productions, in my life. So it’s kinda a hard question to answer that generally speaking. Like if you said you were interested in one on the Vietnam War, I could probably tell you a dozen really excellent ones. In order (The Fog of War and Ken Burns’ 10-part one being the best). But if you wanted one about the orgins of anime or something, I’d have no idea. The best one I’ve seen in say, the last month: The People vs Whitey Bulger.
This was so painful to watch, the elderly woman and her son who were slaves and have no perspectives in future, the filthy beach, the sunken boat and corrupt, destroyed country, extremely sad, very....

As a viewer, I am moved by the way in which the narrator conveys the reality of the people. This is complemented by the scenery of the film. Almost feels as if one was there.
Oh my God, the situation with the old woman and her son, at 35:00... is absolutely horrifying. The fact that she had to be at the disposal of all those men is beyond sickening.
please go do your own research and look at any given issue from two sides, this document subjective and trying to portrait a certain image about Mauritania. this document clearly exaggerates things, especially Slavery. Remember in the end, everyone wants to make money out of their content, even if that means not telling the full story or truth.
As a retired nurse, I'm curious to know if diabetes is common amongst girls/women who are force fed high calorie, carbohydrate food, such as in this video. Does anyone know?? What the slave woman had to endure at the hand of her master is unimaginable and horrific. Her story made me cry. I pray that she is granted true peace, love, freedom and happiness. I don't know her, but I love her.
Heartbreaking. My heart breaks for the old lady and the abuse she’s endured. Even in Gambia we know these people are racist against Sub Saharan Africans with black skin. It’s high time this was put into the public eye and those evil bastards get their Karma. Even fattening up children to marry them off is abuse. A whole nation built on abuse in the 21st century. 🤬

Wow that artist is AMAZING! He needs someone to sell his paintings for him - he could be SO rich! What incredible talent. Slavery shouldn't be allowed for not ONE human on this earth. There is no excuse for this. None. There is enough to feed the world, clothe them, medicate them. We all are equal, no man better than the next. I wish all humans would resolve to abolish hate and evil. Why cannot we be united and love? 😪😪😪
We'll said madam, sadly the truth is some countries like Mauritania are still living in the old stone age. They're alienated from the world and would probably take a century for them to get to where we are now. When some tribes believe they're Superior to others and deny them education, freedom and basic amenities, civilization and development face a brick wall.
It's heartbreaking seeing the plight these merciless people are undergoing, you can literally see the hopelessness and sorrow in their eyes. May Allah SWT have mercy upon the people being oppressed and grant them the strength and taufeeq to overcome their struggles and attain happiness and blessings in this life and the next 🤲🏼
You could fit the entire United States in the Saharan desert. I think it's twice as big as Europe or something? As an American, the thought of a desert stretching from California to New York is mind blowing.
The world need to get interested in that place and set a development project to recolate people there. It is a possibilty i think. Same project in the kuwait or so...don't remember exactly the country, was conducted
@@papson2010 The words has no obligation to do anything for them and also they don’t like us. The problem only will be solve if the culture change. Catholic church are doing a good jog in those country.
There are similar situations throughout Sahelian Africa. This is the far western part of that fault line and the far eastern part in Sudan also tends to get a lot of slavery publicity. Libya isn’t in the Sahel but sub-Saharan Africans have also suffered slavery there.
What an incredible documentary! So informative, compassionately done, and a real piece of art. The camera-man is amazing. He was able to relay everything so well, from colours, to frames to light, to being able to make it so real, as if I was there. Thank you, and stay safe!
I would love to see more of that Artist’s work & hear his & his subject’s stories. He is a talented artist & through his art can shine a light on present day slavery.
How are things with the Dutch slave trade in today's farms using immigrant labour How are things with the slave trade in sex workers in the Netherlands Sad that Mauritania that is 'never' in the news is only interesting as 'klik' bate
So glad to have stumbled upon this video. Almost unbelievable such atrocious acts as slavery are still happening this day and age. What a shame. Sending live and light to all victims
This form of slavery I can assure you does not exist in southern african countries because there are no arabs there. This form of golden day slavery is only in countries where arabs reside. MODEN DAY slavery is everywhere even in the first world countries.
Slavery started with Arabs using Africans and its never been documented and rarely talked about. It still goes on and little is done. I hate white supremacy but I will forever appreciate those white people who saw the error in slavery and made steps to end it. I just don't know why the whole world picks on black skinned people. That's the one burning question I will ask God
@@randomvideoshere6540 Yes, not enough is done nor documented about the salvery by Arabs against Africans. That's another thing to look into why it is like that. Thank you. Well 'civilization' was brought about by white supremacy so their belief about black skin became somewhat a worldwide generalization or perception of black people, sadly. I would thank God that black people found a voice and today are fighting racial injustices and leveling up. My opinion.
The translation is incomplete. The woman talking about "Leblough" at 19:44 never sais the word "attractive". She also clearly states that she is against it at 20:10 she sais "naaraf anna naaraf anna" which means "I know, I know" then she sais "anna diddaha" which means "I am against it". Why was this not included @tracks. Be careful of second hand information guys designed to skew your perspective.
Middle East specially Saudi, Qatar, Dubai also has this house workers who many times treated as slaves. When u don't pay for the work. Punish them, make them do hard work then it's slavery.
@@asifmetal666 this it's not the true in mauritania we don't have slaves believe me you should research before you get your opinion search with arabic language you will find the other storie
Nigerian bros spoke like they had a decent education. Sad what they have to go through to survive and the treatment they're subjected to because of their race.
Because of their race??? Race has nothing to do with anything " the difference is religion " the Christians from Nigeria has a free spirit " why the Muslim anywhere are in Allah's bondage ".
I don't understand why any Nigerian would put themselves in a place like that cos even though we have issues in Nigeria, it seems like paradise compared to what i've seen of Mauritius from this documentary.
@@davlid100 they never realised what the condition would be...they are obviously stuck...they may have been stuck...you can hear him saying in Amsterdam and Holland...you have freedom...their destination may have been Europe
Race has nothing to do with it. Did you not see the so called slave woman in the house serving other people that look just like her. Conflicts of culture is why humanity is in the condition we are in.
Wow incredible insight to some issues not spoken or heard of often in the west, I hope these people will have freedom one day. 23:06-26:27 This scene hit me hard.
After watchin this my heart teared up like how blessed we are when compared to them. May Allah(swt) make it easy for them as well. Prayers fom Pakistan.
That artist; his art is so captivating emotional. Capturing the emotion of the individual. I can almost see what’s going on just by how he’s looking at me
Beloved, please ensure that when you are purchasing works from the artist, you are actually dealing with him and not people exploiting him and impersonating him. It would be good if he could travel for an exhibition, he is extraordinarily gifted.
Incredible documentary and so well done….. I am appalled on the slavery issue one more time but I am also blown away with the “forced “ milk feeding of the young girls…… 😶

Great documentary! I like to think I have a general idea of what's going on in the world ... I knew NOTHING about this. ~Thanks for your work to bring this to screen
So glad I stumbled upon this channel! First documentary I’ve watched...I’m so impressed with the sad but unique subject matter of this particular country/region, but especially the cinematography, music and candid style of interviewing. Look forward to more. TY
so when you see how the nativ girls are forced, even by torture, to drink a hell of milk daily so that they can be given in precost marriage, there must be something wrong with those ones. but baesicly it's lak of thrust and love. the old woman helt as a slave might have been sold by her on family..just take ure time and spend several years in an african country to really know what a number of them are able and readdy to engage.
It is not how people see you, it is how you see yourself. I have lived in so called Black countries, and I and many other Blacks from other countries were treated like garbage. Remember God loves you; love yourself.
Thank you but I couldn’t watch till the end it hurt so much to watch this. I am an Indian Hindu who was born in Uganda East Africa and now I live in Chicago USA and am so grateful,happy and content to be in one of the best country in the world.
Sad but happy I’ve seen this video,why are authorities turning a blind eye on slavery,as long as there is injustice and poverty this will sadly continue,thanks for making the world aware,I will pray for freedom and a better life for all people.
I was in Mauritania last autumn and only saw the good parts, there are fantastic mountains and the nomads with flocks and herds and Chinguetti but I had no idea about all this
When you stop seeing the world with your standard and try to understand cultures you will enjoy which ever country you go but when you start to compere your self with them then problems start
Thanks for sharing this amazing documentary about the journey from Sahara and learned a bit about the situation of the Mauritanian people. Great film. 💯👍
hi i'm from mauritania so i feel the need to correct some information that is WRONG 14:19 there are no 'white moors' thy call themselves ادخن which means a sort of a brown color and they are mixed from black Africans and arabs and in terms of skin colors u can't say that there is only dark skin and light skin because throughout the video u people with different degrees of darkness and lightness 30:17 the so called activist in this part of the video is a slave owner himself since the people that work in his houses (yes multiple ones and he is one of the richest men in the country) don't get paid ! while him and his family are living the life of luxury the 'haratin' did'nt get no benefits from his activism and pursuits so he is basically using there cause which is a real since they aresaves a lot of them are poor but all other ethnicities suffer from extreme poverty even though they're grand parents were'nt slaves 32:45 the books that he burned talk about how to deal with ur slaves not legitimizing getting slaves that is a big misconception which i wish that he spoke with a scholar so that he get's a better understanding the secret service allowed ur meeting with biram since he himself is a creation of said service to make civil unrest and make people forget about the real issues that plags the country i.e. poverty , government corruption , unemployment .... 36:07 in this time that i'm writing this comment biram is wealthy , powerful , a member of the Parliament and there are lots of other haratin that are MINISTERS , government officials , manager , business men so i really don't know how the apartheid subject came up 36:43 he was actually released after two and u forgot to mention what were the charges on him they were about him beating up a man !! at the i just want more Europeans to try and diversify their experiences this country is great and i love everyone in it regardless of the maaaaany tribes , colors , background of them cause that is a source of pride for me
Thank you for sharing, Also they translation have some issues and it's misleading. I wish I had more time to destroy every single false claim in this document. It's so discussing that they make money from showing only one side of the story and not the two side (if they even exist lol).

This is a really very interesting and well done documentary about a little known country 👍👍👍 But anyone who is interested in Mauritania knows about the still existing slavery and the black Haratines. A very sad topic that unfortunately hardly anyone is interested in.
maybe if it got more publicity , more docus on tv , but like was said if they have nothing they either join gangs or go back to their old owner to at least get fed ,
What does anyone have to complain about..after watching this..feel like ive been with my head in the sand...tragic..there really are no words in my vocabulary to decribe how im just blown away...
This is a deeply troubling video. My heart cries out for Nigerians. In my opinion, Nigerians are viewed way too negative. They have paid a huge price for being the most populous black Nation in Africa. Yes, some of them are criminals, but you have criminals in all nations, not just Nigeria.

This artist needs to advertise his paintings online .
This is heartbreaking. My friends from Pakistan and he says slavery, particularly child slavery is very common there as well. Many slaves work as domestic help or as bonded labourers for feudal lords because the country still practices fuedalism.
With broken economic systems (aided by corrupt Western economic policies) people have no choice.
You become a permanent housemaid/worker or you starve.
If you are old enough to walk and talk then you are old enough to earn bread to eat.
Its just the reality.
no it's Islam actually not feudalism , ..it is permitted to have slaves in Islam
@Baby Sama 712 absolutely 100% wrong ...Mohammed had slaves , talks about slaves in the Koran etc etc .
@Baby Sama 712 Muhammed kept slaves , also sex slaves ..the word "Slave" comes from the white Slavic non Muslim people from Eastern Europe , captured by Muslims and brought back to the Caliphate as "slaves" ..in some cases , men were castrated and there were other cases of the salve's children being taken into Muslim households to be brought up as Muslims ..this is all in the three scared books if you care to look . Regarding the African slave trade , white Europeans , Christians or not , were at the tail end of the slave trade story ( actually it's still going on today anyway , in a different form ) ..accounts say Arabs have always traded in humans , but it was also the white Europeans who made it "illegal " and "banned " it worldwide . but .of course , true Muslims only follow Sharia law don't they ?
So beyond sad
That artist was incredibly talented!! I hope he has someone to help him sell his work, especially if it is sold online, he could make a lot of money. I would love to purchase a painting from him.

Point of correction: Mauritanian is an African country lived by Africans.
This is actually the best documentary i have ever seen it really shows me what life is like in the sahara like never before.
Having read your comment before I started it, i agree it’s definitely worthwhile. I’d probably appraise it at fairly decent (but mostly makes me think.....you really should try to watch a lot more documentaries) lol 🙃
@@justinmix143 any that you recommend?
@@ethanbolen4425 lol, i was totally just jokin with ya, mate😉. But yeah, I’m not really sure what yer into. I think if I tried just randomly listing some, it’d be really hard to justify know what to include or leave out. Plus, I’m into alotta stuff I find challenging and perspective-expanding, but many people might find disturbing (i.e. with subject matter that could range from anything like the holocost or other war crimes, to the awful history of mental health care in the US. Anything. Endless facets of random, bizzare stuff I might find fascinating. If there’s a particular subject you’re interested, I might be able to suggest one (or some). I just rewatched a great documentary I saw years ago that’s mostly about suicide (in San Francisco) called “The Bridge.” Outstanding, but pretty dark & haunting. I dunno-a good upbeat one saw yesterday about Artificial Intelligence and the ancient board game GO was called “Alpha Go.” It was really incredible But I’ve seen hundreds, maybe thousands of you just count TV productions, in my life. So it’s kinda a hard question to answer that generally speaking. Like if you said you were interested in one on the Vietnam War, I could probably tell you a dozen really excellent ones. In order (The Fog of War and Ken Burns’ 10-part one being the best). But if you wanted one about the orgins of anime or something, I’d have no idea.
The best one I’ve seen in say, the last month: The People vs Whitey Bulger.

As a retired nurse, I'm curious to know if diabetes is common amongst girls/women who are force fed high calorie, carbohydrate food, such as in this video. Does anyone know?? What the slave woman had to endure at the hand of her master is unimaginable and horrific. Her story made me cry. I pray that she is granted true peace, love, freedom and happiness.

Diabetes is quite common there, not more than in other countries though, and believe or not, there are more diabetic men than women there

We'll said madam, sadly the truth is some countries like Mauritania are still living in the old stone age. They're alienated from the world and would probably take a century for them to get to where we are now. When some tribes believe they're Superior to others and deny them education, freedom and basic amenities, civilization and development face a brick wall.

So glad to have stumbled upon this video. Almost unbelievable such atrocious acts as slavery are still happening this day and age. What a shame. Sending live and light to all victims
Slavery exists almost everywhere in the world apart from the First world countries.
This form of slavery I can assure you does not exist in southern african countries because there are no arabs there. This form of golden day slavery is only in countries where arabs reside. MODEN DAY slavery is everywhere even in the first world countries.
Tf is love and light meant to do? 😂😂😂😂
Slavery started with Arabs using Africans and its never been documented and rarely talked about. It still goes on and little is done. I hate white supremacy but I will forever appreciate those white people who saw the error in slavery and made steps to end it. I just don't know why the whole world picks on black skinned people. That's the one burning question I will ask God
@@randomvideoshere6540 Yes, not enough is done nor documented about the salvery by Arabs against Africans. That's another thing to look into why it is like that. Thank you.
Well 'civilization' was brought about by white supremacy so their belief about black skin became somewhat a worldwide generalization or perception of black people, sadly. I would thank God that black people found a voice and today are fighting racial injustices and leveling up. My opinion.
The translation is incomplete. The woman talking about "Leblough" at 19:44 never sais the word "attractive". She also clearly states that she is against it at 20:10 she sais "naaraf anna naaraf anna" which means "I know, I know" then she sais "anna diddaha" which means "I am against it". Why was this not included @tracks. Be careful of second hand information guys designed to skew your perspective.
Thank you to the poeple filming and and great thank you too everyone who talks to the camera, so we can see how other countries are

hi i'm from mauritania so i feel the need to correct some information that is WRONG
14:19 there are no 'white moors' thy call themselves ادخن which means a sort of a brown color and they are mixed from black Africans and arabs and in terms of skin colors u can't say that there is only dark skin and light skin because throughout the video u people with different degrees of darkness and lightness
30:17 the so called activist in this part of the video is a slave owner himself since the people that work in his houses (yes multiple ones and he is one of the richest men in the country) don't get paid ! while him and his family are living the life of luxury the 'haratin' did'nt get no benefits from his activism and pursuits so he is basically using there cause which is a real since they aresaves a lot of them are poor but all other ethnicities suffer from extreme poverty even though they're grand parents were'nt slaves
32:45 the books that he burned talk about how to deal with ur slaves not legitimizing getting slaves that is a big misconception which i wish that he spoke with a scholar so that he get's a better understanding
the secret service allowed ur meeting with biram since he himself is a creation of said service to make civil unrest and make people forget about the real issues that plags the country i.e. poverty , government corruption , unemployment ....
36:07 in this time that i'm writing this comment biram is wealthy , powerful , a member of the Parliament and there are lots of other haratin that are MINISTERS , government officials , manager , business men so i really don't know how the apartheid subject came up
36:43 he was actually released after two and u forgot to mention what were the charges on him they were about him beating up a man !!
at the i just want more Europeans to try and diversify their experiences
this country is great and i love everyone in it regardless of the maaaaany tribes , colors , background of them cause that is a source of pride for me

This is a deeply troubling video. My heart cries out for Nigerians. In my opinion, Nigerians are viewed way too negative. They have paid a huge price for being the most populous black Nation in Africa. Yes, some of them are criminals, but you have criminals in all nations, not just Nigeria.
