His mouth may not be full of teeth, but his head is full of factual knowledge. I’ve read a lot about the things he spoke about and he was spot on about Everything, he knows his stuff that’s for sure - no doubt about it!
Give Thanks for The Elder✅️💯
What a powerful vlog, it’s important that we know our history in order to shape our future. I can’t imagine the horrors our ancestors went through. People give this video a like 👍🏾 because our ancestors story DESERVES to be told!
This was an excellent episode. I know that it probably won’t get the views since it isn’t about women but that doesn’t matter. Very educational (and tragic). Beautiful artwork near the end too. Thank you for sharing.
GREETINGS KAKA AUSTON IM WATCHING OFTEN LIVE FROM ZANZIBAR 🌴❤️💛💚🌴THIS EPISODE MOVED ME TO TEARS NOBOBY HAS BEEN TREATED MORE HORRIC THAN US............ AND STILL WE RISE 🙌🏿I TO VISITED GORE ISLAND IT WAS AWFUL BUT NECESSARY TO SEE I FELT THE SOULS THEIR
CONTINUE PRODUCING BLACK GREATNESS BLESS UP DADA FEMI 🌴🌴🌴🇹🇿🇬🇾🇯🇲❤💛💚🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
10k views seems like a lot to me 🤷🏾♀️
I’m 28 years old I wasn’t around for the civil rights movement and I wasn’t around for slavery but it still angers me to my core about what happened to my ancestors this is the reason why I am an American and Im fighting to get out this country in real time.
@amaruaasir6276.... Your ancestors had tribal wars and slaved each other before whites ever came to Africa. We whites saved y'all from your selves by buying y'all. If not for us you might not be here. Y'all are the ones who invented slavery not us whites. Know your history instead of listening to what racist black Americans tell you.
@amaruaasir6276..... Oh you poor baby you poor victim. Do you need a baby 🍼.
By far, this was your best vlog (in my opinion). Extremely informative history enhanced with an actual structure where the history took place.
I was really disturbed at the George Bush reaction (laughing during his visit) to the inhumane treatment of slaves. It kind of explains the how people today don't understand what our people went through and tries to place a perfunctory slant on this time in history by minimizing it.
Hats off to the old dude for an outstanding tour.
Also, the artwork at the end was amazing.
Wait ! Didnt you know that bush was a bitch ? This mofo already lied to start War... Nothing surprising. Thats why many hate your warring country (your elite).
Just because someone says he was laughing doesn't mean it's true. It's incredible how people can hear one thing and just believe it without any evidence. You should have learned from the Kanye incident when Kanye prematurely called Vush jbr racist for not sending federal help during Hurricane Katrina when in fact it was a matter of the governor requesting help to trigger a federal response. Ignorance of the full facts required that you actually do research before coming to a c
@@zazabrown732Thats not a situation >with GW] you can really do good research on. Just say its an unsubstantiated anecdote for now.
Facts
@@zazabrown732what does the guide gain for lying??and singling him out of all the other Caucasian prominent visitors???it's almost like you're discrediting the guide.and for what?
Shout out to the Colonel. He is a man of great knowledge and wisdom. The sand art is magical. God bless our motherland.
Hands down your best video ever! Very powerful! Editing on point... Score (soundtrack)... Even the thumbnail! THIS is your turning point. I don't care of it only get 100 views. Keep elevating Young King...
Wow, thank you!
@@AustonHolleman deserved!
The guide is very knowledgeable...Thanks to him.. have learned a lot from him
Glad to hear that
@@AustonHolleman
Thanx you for this..😊 Gambia also as a slave castles on an island from the mainland. At night they would sail to the mainland and capture our people from the villages before returning.
Ghana as 24 of the 40 castles along the West Coast. Many Africans were made to walk neighbour countries such as Benin Togo Burkino Faso into Ghana before leaving to the Americas
@@AustonHollemanQue es otra idioma tu eres practicades o conozces
True!!!dude has receipts down to the dates..room measurements..slave numbers etc..As he narrated step by step I could almost visualize mentally what he said.And his command of English was commendable.
he should be given a formal job by the tourism ministry there.
See how Africans can acknowledge their role but the European nations wont
The European countries have made all their records available online for decades. They already acknowledged. Now when are you going to bother to do the research?
@@tvs9978but they lie for many things so... Like when they did with the "massacre de thiaroye".
@TheAKD56, exactly their truth is a big fat lie.
GUNS
@@tvs9978fk records and fk research we see the proof. Reperations is all that needs discussion.
Took African history as an AP class in high school, and African studies in college. This OG dude is spot on with EVERYTHING he's saying! You could literally pause the video and research dates/events he's speaking on. Went to Ghana twice myself, and think every Black person abroad should visit the castle. 💯
Learned so much from this video - thank you Auston for posting this! Our people need this knowledge about the Door of No Return and you found the PERFECT historian to do it. He was more than a tour guide to me. It felt like one of my family patriarchs was personally speaking to me, giving me oral history. Can't wait to take my family on the journey to our ancestral home.
But the strongest survived and raised and birthed revolutionaries, inventors, creators of genres of worldwide music, the worlds finest athletes business meen an women and even rhe President of the country where we were slaves. Truly only the strong could survive this and thats who we are!
Always the fittest. It remind me that european killed lot people when they stopped just sticking to Sénégal coast (french eradicate many village).
The president was birthed by A Kenyan imigrant with an America. But tes your point is home
@TheEric5050 soon we will return little by little and do more of the same recreating and reuniting the strongest bloodline on the planet
obamas Dad was Kenyan,,his mom Italian
@otkk2022 uh duh and Barak was born in AMERICA making him what?? Harriet Tubmans grandparents were from Africa. But she was born and raised on a plantation in America. Thats how most if not all blacks the made sure Barak was elected became African Americans. From those who survived slavery, to those that fought for the right to vote,and fought for equal rights. Im not sure you understand African American history... because your obvious comment is pointless.
The tour guide is very knowledgeable and speaks good English
Visited Goree Island where the slave castle is in 1997. Went to the Door of No Return. Very emotional especially if you dream of the uplift of black people in the diaspora. The African family I lived with could not understand why we black Americans were so tearful. They don't know their history. They teach on the colonial system. Senegal gave me 2 great daughters.
The explanation of where all the sands for the art come from was absolutely beautiful. How unique!
This is very sad! I wouldn’t be able to stop crying if I was there. 😰🇿🇦
My cousin and I sat inside the cell for the "troublemakers" for about 30 seconds. I swear it felt like there were people in there with us.
Love the content Brother. This is Awesome. Senegal is an awesome, beautiful country.
Do more content like this! This one was powerful bro! 💯
True
I know I would break down crying seeing this in person. Just like I did when i visited the Vietnam Memorial in DC.
The guide is very knowledgeable.
The artist is a magician his skills are next level.
This is very impressive
Absolutely awesome! You did your thing on these. This is why traveling makes a person so worldly and interesting. Also, getting the Colonel to get the tour was genius! Makes me want to travel there.
That old man is a true African he spews truth and nothing but the truth kudos to him
One of your best so far. Tour guide is extremely knowledge. We must know and never forget our history. Know your enemy, keep our ancestors alive.
I have been to Goree in senegal and Ouidah in Benin-both were slave forts… it will have you thankful of the life you have- appreciate everything!!
Excellent episode. Your a naturally smart guy. I see you being able to evolve into someone who can expand your audience by sharing your personal cultural exposures and growth over time. The episode with Wendy, Marlo the Jamaican girl and the Ghanaian brother being possibly your most intriguing episode yet, along with this! Watching you adapt, grow and share your authenticity is dynamic. I believe you could do an ongoing African circuit and keep building a diverse audience if you collaborate wisely. 1) African travelogs 2) RELATIONSHIPS and 3) Practical Pan African/Political and Cultural interest. You have the age and charisma and timing to ride the ever increasing tides of the new Global African American male perspectives. Your sitting on soo much material.
Thanks bro Auston✊🏾 the tour guide should get an apprentice to pass on all that knowledge to…brilliant man.
He mentioned theys a guy who he taught all he knows (when..Auston was trying to get a guide initially someone called out another guide's name)
Please make more videos like this. It’s so nice to mix things up, and break from the monotony of women in the videos. This video is very educational. Good job!
I am a tour guide in Cartagena De Indias - Colombia. today about 2 hours, I am taking a group of people from USA to Palenque. it's a piece of Africa in Colombia, right there, the Cimarrones as they were called "Africans who run away from their masters" used to hide. there's nothing wors for a human being that losing the Freedom wherever that happens. it is difficult to believe that happens, my wish is to see Africa becoming a Great continent in avery way possible in order to bring justice, progress, happiness and peace to each corner in a continent that deserves it.
A few years ago I guided an European tourist journalist in Cartagena De Indias where we did have unfortunately slavery, during our visit to a house museum name after a guy who took care of the slaves, this gentleman was about to burst crying when he told me believe it or not that he has seen africans slaves chain by their hands in Africa. I was shock to know that it is still going on. SAD.
Great masterful video. This older gentleman deserves his own LLC to do this tour, he is very knowledgeable Man
LLC? Keep that American talk in America
This was the best episode yet!!!
Africa is home regardless of your status.. Mama Africa❤❤ we love you.
This video really touched a nerve 😢..very informative and kudos to the Tour Guide for this history lesson! On the bucket list of places to visit soon
By far one of your best videos I’ve enjoyed the guide was very knowledgeable ❤
Wow, this was amazing! God bless our elders for being determined to not to let us forget!! May are ancestors begin to have peace because their children are beginning to find their way home. As Africans, our fight/struggle for freedom is the same whereever we are. As African Americans were still dreaming of home wanting to go back just as our ancestors did because this is were well truly be free!! God bless your tour guide, he was amazing, I wish I could send him some money (cash app, etc). His presentation was beautiful, our elders and ancestors are calling us home!! Africa won’t be free until we all free!!❤
You picked a pretty good guide.
Ideas for you: get up early in the morning and take the train to Diamniadio, the city where the stadium is and do some sight seeing. It's still developing, so it's doesn't get a lot of attention yet. From there catch a taxi to Saly and spend one day in Saly at the beach and bars. Saly is a vibe on its own.
Also, try jazz night at Pullman Teranga or Radisson Blue, good looking people great music and food. Also since you like to workout you can probably shoot a vlog opposite Cheikh Ante Diop university. If it's not a holiday/prayer day, there's literally thousands of people exercising on the beach on new equipment.
Check out the restaurants/nightlife in Almadies, it's Dakar's most upmarket neighborhood.
Wow, this was incredibly informative. That guide must be a historian, he is very knowledgeable and generally impressive.
Definitely we need more content like this !
Thank you, Mr. Hollerman! Best video on TH-cam. Thank you from the ancestors and your tour guide is the best we need more truth tellers like him.
First. Let's give this old man some props. Secondly, the relationship between Christianity and slavery is disturbing yet so real. Finally, that whole ferry ride was eerie.
And yes, Africans " the collaborators" sold us. They are akin to the people we work with, i.e., sell outs. Yeah, this can be very triggering😢
I beg to differ that these Africans who sold slaves were "sellouts." It's not so cut and dry like that. You're using a 21st century social perspective to describe the ethnic dynamics of the 16th to 19th centuries. Many of the Africans who sold slaves to Europeans were selling people from different some rival ethnic groups. There was no such thing as an "African" or "Black" identity in Africa among Africans any much more than there was a "White" identity in Europe or an "Asian" identity in Asia. The African or "Black" came around in the New World where Africans were lumped together as slaves and faced a common oppression and a common enemy. Therefore these slaves sold to Europeans as slaves because they were other ethnic groups weren't seen as "brothers" or "sisters" so there was no "selling out." What existed was competition, rivalry, animosity and greed amongst one another.
There's a saying we have back home on the missionaries..
""They gave us the Bible and took our land""
Made to believe our religions were primitive and only they knew the true God yet on the other side the true religion promoted these atrocities
@@TheViableAlternativereally? How about those who were still selling us out in the 50s? Right before Kenya's Independence?
I can't imagine what my father, grandfather went through but I will fight for them and their story.
For the untold stories of the maumau women until the day I die. Then hopefully my kids will continue.
The collaborators got big pieces of land. Where's the rebels were left with zilch.
Do you know what that means in the kikuyu culture?
This has been a nightmare for my family. Similar to Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome -by Joy Deguy
You are still welcome to state your opinion and so are we. Descendants of the rebels aka maumau
tribalism. the same tribalism as today, only captured and sold in less obvious ways.@@TheViableAlternative
have you visited a witch doctor in Africa lately? is it working out well for them?@@mizzcatt7691
This was a very, very interesting video. This tour guide was excellent. I will have to watch this again. Thank you Austin for sharing this with us. Wow!
Bruh I couldn’t go there, I’ll be mad as hell ready to takeoff on site on “somebody!” Seeing how our people were treated….
This was dope, and informative (background music set the mood well too). Please continue brother
This is an excellent tour, the tour guide was very knowledge (Do judge a book by its cover)
Shout out to colonel, He did his thing. Man of great Knowledge and wisdom. So powerful. He was my tour guide last year when i visited gorreh Island. Kudos to him, wishing him long life and prosperity. The man has knowledge of this gruesome place. One of your best content, Really enjoyed it. You did your thing. 😢😢😢😢😢😢

glad he made this eposide
Auston I really like this kind of video and God bless you for this video.
These last 2 videos are probably your best that I have seen.
This is harrowing. My Kikuyu ancestors were forest dwellers near Mt. Kenya. This protected them from slave traders.
Real Talk your editing 😎content noteworthy, amazing Goree Island tour Bucket list🙏🏿
Thank you for sharing this video and I really appreciate it but somewhere really sad.
Very educative. One of your best vlogs.

*I was wondering what he was doing while he was doing all of that talking and throwing that dirt around, lol
This gives me the chills wow I still can't believe this happened to are people in some say we don't deserve reparations. 😮😮
Thank you. Glad that you delved into the historical facts on this one. Beautiful artwork. Can't wait to visit this area.I would be interested in your insights and if this has changed any of your values or beliefs.
Nice video. Really emotionnal.
Hopefully i'll move there, someday. Nice vidéo, young brother.
I appreciate this content a lot. If possible you should get a wireless mic maybe dji wireless mic because at times there was difficulty hearing the guide.
At 21:30 is he saying that the water was brought from Robben Island to Sengal? That's really cool. I dont recall seeing that when I was there.
Cool that’s what’s up, wouldn’t mind visiting Senegal for this here. 🙂 🇸🇳
Very Deep
what a sad story...i'll deffinately add that island to my bucket list
