African Diaspora in Pakistan: Sheedis, Sidis, Habshis
Afro Pakistanis
#Sheedis are based in southern Pakistan, with an estimated 50 per cent residing in lower Sindh, 20 per cent in the city of Karachi, and 30 per cent in Baluchistan. The majority of Sheedi are Muslim, but have distinct cultural traits linking back to their particular history*
It's great that we're finally receiving some attention, but the folks you met didn't speak English very well, so let me explain; Pakistan has the largest black population in South Asia; the two major black/African ethnic groups of Pakistan are Sheedis and Makranis; the Makranis inhabit the whole Makran coast of Baluchistan, Pakistan, while Sheedis exist in Southern Sindh. The makranis have a high level of genetic variety, and many of them have coloured eyes as a result of intermixing with the Baluch and are Muslims. Sheedis typically marry within their own race, and although being Muslims, they keep many African indigenous traditions and Swahili words in their language. There are over a million Afro-Pakistanis while those in India are migrants from modern-day Pakistan.
Love from Pakistan 🇵🇰 ❤
VP1 sometimes I just don't know which I value the most in your videos, topic or the sheer style you've came up with just please don't dare to ever stop 😊
Incredible video ❤
I hope you visit Mukalla
City in Yemen its beautiful city and safe also there is a lot of Arab afro 🇾🇪 😊❤
Our brothers and sisters in Pakistan. Wow 😳
The drums towards end of video is so appealing...
As a sunnah Muslim I can imagine these people are full of bi’dah, but I’m happy to see the diversity of Pakistan
اللہ ان کو ہدایت دے۔
I am so emotional about this!
"Goma" means Drum in Swahili I see they have still maintained some East African bantu aspects
Oh my God, thank you so much for this! I never knew.
Fantastic
Wow super
Didn't even know black people in Pakistan lol now I have to google search this 😂
This is good to see - fellow Africans in Pakistan, still practicing what their ancestors did - drumming
❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉

You should go see the Black people in southern Iraq and Iran who were bought there as slaves
All the scattered Hebrews worldwide
You need to hook me up with Noushad, I would love to visit Sheedis. Is it easy to find a wife there?LOL
It was amazing and interesting to see Sidi community and their spiritual practices in Pakistan. I'm curious as to when and how their ancestors migrated from Africa to the Indian subcontinent. Thankyou for showing us the undiscovered parts of Pakistan. The beat and the mystical sayings were so uplifting and spiritually ecstatic that it urged me to perform Dhamal (dance in spiritual ecstasy).
@Hamza Tariq
Please check my aeries on Sidis of Gujarat India. Same people same background, one group b4 India and Pakistan split
@@visualpoet1 wow interesting. i'll definitely check it out. I recently got hooked to your Pakistan series.
I like that they celebrate with their women.
Welcome back brother
Another great video. Africans really are everywhere.
Wow! We never get to see them in the media 😭
First time to see Afo Pakistanis in TH-cam 😊
It would have been interesting to hear about their history and their take on being from African ancestry. But clearly there is a language barrier.
Dear They are settled in coastal region of Pakistan and India for centuries. No body knows exactly since when and from which part of Africa they came. In Karachi and Balochistan they are taken as natives of land/locals. Hardly any reference to African ancestry.
Where ever the Cunguhman man went, his drum went with him!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks, #visualpoet1
Amazing
v.nice ❤❤❤
Bom ver neus irmaos de origen nesse pais
Thanks for uploading this awesome video❤
pakistan has loads of music = its just that the west dont understand there language
Wa la hawla Wa la quwata illa bi Lah
First time to see Afro Pakistanis in TH-cam 😊
Looks really really poor, like poverty is woven into the fabric of their culture. Just an observation.
Islam make sure to dilute them as much as possible, whereas in India the siddis are much more black and do not mix as much because they are not Muslim
Haha, more like in Islam we do not discriminate! Hindus have a caste system but in Islam we do not, so intermarriage isn't looked down upon as much intermarriage in Hinduism!
Stfu pajit, we don’t descriminate like your linduism does
