- Kenya has a long history with the Indian community. Today, Indians are one of the most popular minority groups in Kenya. This video explores the history and current treatment of the Indian community in Kenya.
Kenya is a country in East Africa with coastline on the Indian Ocean. It encompasses savannah, lakelands, the dramatic Great Rift Valley and mountain highlands. It's also home to wildlife like lions, elephants and rhinos. From Nairobi, the capital, safaris visit the Maasai Mara Reserve, known for its annual wildebeest migrations, and Amboseli National Park, offering views of Tanzania's 5,895m Mt. Kilimanjaro.

Kenya has the second largest Indian community in Africa, after South Africa. In 2015, there were around 100,000 Indians in Kenya, which is 0.3% of the total population. The majority of Indians live in the major urban areas of Nairobi and Mombasa, with a minority living in rural areas. if you enjoyed content, kindly hit that like 👍 button and subscribe.

Great video ma brotha! I'm Kenyan and I grew up with Indian buddies. My best friend in elementary school.
Edit:
...was Indian.
Correction, SA has 1.56 millions Indians and Nigeria is second with 800M. Why focus on 0.30% of population, the presence of Indians in Kenya is always blown out proportion, in a country of 55 million people 100K is nothing, there are even those who claim Indians own Kenya. There are few Indians who do manufacturing and construction, majority are into whole stores, those who used to do retail have left, outcompeted by locals. When it comes to black ownership and locally manufacturing industries Kenya is one of the highest in Kenya. Kenya has a large number farmers who are upper middle class and upper class
@@kenkioqqo thanks so much for watching!
@@andeyo1 thanks for the update on the population. I don’t think focusing on humans who are a huge part of the diversity and the most recent tribe is “nothing”. I also disagree that it is blown out of proportion. As an African myself, I didn’t know about them and I recently learned so I’m sharing it to the world. Most westerners can’t even name 5 countries in Africa so I’m pretty sure many people have no idea about this new tribe. It is important and not “nothing”. Thanks for watching!
@@andeyo1get your fact well before commenting just Google...you have your phone kenya have second biggest population of Indians after south africa infact we have more than 150k kenyan Indians and another 150k immigrants...do your research.
If you are going to be doing how indians are treated in Kenya.. also do how indians treat local Kenyans . Thank you.
Yes they treat Local so bad
All how Indians treat Africa's in India, by the way Africans is a race of people all over the world as in Africa America. Whites who reside in Africa are not African. You do not become Chinese or Indians just because you family has been there for generations. why are we refering to them now as Indians
Who allowed that.
@@andeyo1 A black African is never regarded as Indian/Chinese/Japanese/Asian, or European just because they are born or lived there for generations. Africans are Black African and only that. Those ethnicities calling themselves African are imposters.
I was looking for his comment crazzzy
I was born in Kenya and moved to the USA decades ago. My heart is still in Kenya. My grandparents migrated from Punjab India to Kenya in the 1930s. I love your blogs, Kenya has done so well. What a beautiful country, with friendly people, great cuisine, fantastic weather, beautiful landscapes, and wildlife, There is no land that comes close to Kenya.
Thanks so much for watching! Kenya is truly one of the kind.
I’m a Ugandan living in California, a Punjabi family has adopted me . They are my landlord but treat me like a son

Indians are always kind

MOST KENYANS THINK INDIANS ARE VERY MEAN WITH THEIR CASH😂😂😂
That's what makes them a success
VERY RACIST

A lot of Indians came to African countries for work during British colonization. When they were no longer needed, the British didn't pay for their fares back to India as they had promised. So many Indians just stayed because they didn't have money to go back to India. Indians from that time are found in Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, and South Africa. Many have become citizens of these African countries.
Also, there are Christians in India, Catholics and Protestants, they are religous minorities (2.3%) but they are there. The apostle Thomas is known to have gone to India to share the gospel there.

That’s amazing to me that, people that are not indigenous to a place can come there, and then not allow the indigenous people into their communities pretty sick
It is the indigenous Kenya people's fault for allowing that & not the Indians

Kenya is a settler colony. Lots of people were brought in from other parts of the world. UK prime minister is Kenyan origin. There are similar housing places in smaller towns like Kerugoya and Meru. Those in these closed places are mostly from the Swaminarayan/ kutchi background. Muslim Indians and Sikhs rarely segregate themselves
Yes, Jains especially do not like to mingle with other communities because of their vegan diet. It's an abomination for them to even smell meat cooking! Speaking from my experience while living in an Indian city back in the day.
They were actually not lots. Statistics show they are nor lots including what the vlogger has posted.
There are many Indians in Kisumu too

Kenyans are very tolerant people, even politically finally Kikuyus and Luos have learnt to live together, i think most Kenyans don't like Indians in general but neither do Indians like us. But we get along since we don't have a bad history compared to with European or among ourselves. Humans have the same problems world wide.
Such content is what i signed up for, pretty impressive Ivain
Thanks a lot bro!
That was an interesting discussion
Thanks for watching!
Indians moved to Kenya in 1901.After helping construct the Uganda railway from Mombasa to Kampala they did not return to India.
They do return for the bride and the bridegroom
There was a small Indian presence in Mombasa during the Vasco Da Gama era in the 1500s when the Portuguese were around in Mombasa but a majority started to move in in 1895.
I😊😮😊
You can't enter any gated community in Kenya without an appointment, it doesn't matter it's native Kenyans, whites or indians. But as as a Kenyan I don't like these kenyan indians because they think they're better than us.
Indians are good people.. Indians bring with them economic development, jobs and progress..
@@kingknights5107 Why can't they do so in INDIA
Africans are very kind, welcoming, and friendly people. I just don't like the apartheid attitudes and systems these foreigners have brought and created in the continent.

Another lovely share, I was born and brought up in Kenya but there are many things I do not know about Kenya since I moved away so many years ago.
I think things like living in Langata are reserved(said simply)
thanks for another brilliant share my bro.Enjoy your time in Kenya
Thanks so much for watching and for the feedback.
This people are proud and hateful towards locals Africans. I'm a Kenyan I know. Majority not all though hardly interact with the locals.. We've over privileged them.
They forgot about Idi Amin
Thats how Xenophobia begins the next think, you hear temples in flames.
A lot of those Indians there in Kenya are those that were kicked out of Uganda by Idi Amin, or their descendants.
Nope, those ones mostly got offered British citizenship.
Smart man, Idi Amin Dada.
@@swts4kYou’re a terrorist sympathizer.. he was a terrorist..
@@kingknights5107 my sympathies my right. Find yours.
Nope!! Only a fraction were from Ug, and they left and now live in UK and Canada, including those who were in Kenya. Others went to TZ. That is why there are only 100,000 of them in Kenya ..a very small number.
This is such a unique view of Kenya love it
I have a big big problem the Black kenyans are not allowed to live in the same neighborhood with the Indians. How can the leaders, president allowed that to happen. So in other words there is segregation and racism in Kenya. why would black people from the Caribbean, Europe, America or any other parts of the world want to reside in Kenya other such racist conditions, if people can't live as one in Kenya. Can black people go to India and tell the natives that they are not allowed to live amongst them. NO. This is extremely upsetting and need to change. I was planning to relocate to Kenya but I would be damn if I would go there to invest my money and live under such racism and segregation. WHY the hell as a black person, my ancestors are from Africa relocate to Kenya to live as a second class citizen. That's friggin NONSENSE!!!
AS A KENYAN I DON'T SEE THE NEED TO LIVE CLOSE TO THE INDIANS. WE DON'T HAVE THE SAME CULTURE OR RELIGION. THEY ARE THE MINORITIES AND SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO LIVE CLOSE TO EACH OTHER. STOP WITH YOUR VICTIM MENTALITY NONESENSE.
I would be traumatized living with Indian majority estate.
Actually in Gujarat there is an African village full of African peoples.
India have African villages in gujrat,south india with free ration free medical,also education..

Do videos on how the Indians treat the local black people, same as the recently arrived Chinese people. The mistreatment is disgusting. They even won’t allow blacks to rent in their buildings. Both of you need to expose this. Now, that’s a story to watch.
Interesting! Will have to explore that eventually. Thanks
Most local Kenyans are not looking to live with them because of the difference in culture and religion. It goes both ways!
@@user-xs5dh3qo4s This is their character even in the west they must return to India to get the marriage partner
@rukam3 Thanks for that information.
Indian people donot like dark skin. Most Indians ask for a light skin or fair skinned person in their match making. The cast system was abolished nut it was a part of Hinduism for thousands of years. Also, the Northern Indians are very Aryan looking.
Indians basically come together and combine resources to develop the properties which they later move into. That's why it might be perceived that they live in isolation. Their togetherness is a major reason a lot of them are successful.
You mean RACISTS
Well put. They combine effort as a result they excel. it is also notable in the Kenya-Somalis nowadays. This is the one thing we have to learn from them.
Especially given how individualistic Kenyans are 😂😂😂
this is habit of Gujaratis they support each other not the other state people, they involve in all demanding business
Yes but they are racist too because they could uplift their African brothers and sisters who are ready to follow suit and would not.
I like the exaggeration "Nairobi is a jungle" nice😂😂. You are doing an incredible job
Thank you for interesting video information peacefull living in Kenya beautifull Country
No harm with having a Chinatown or an Indian community or African communities living together to keep their religion, cultures etc alive. But we must be friendly social able n love all n be open to friendship with anyone in the country we live in.
My indian friends and classmates both in high school and campus are friendly and they don't have that indian accent at all the younger generation of indian community in Kenya are so friendly with shred of humanity compared to the older generation who are kind of emotionally unavailable ,proud ,hateful and insensitive. Even though the Indians have contributed largely to the growth of kenya economy i just feel they need to work on there personality ,but not all of them like the CEO kings collection the man is so charitable ,briliant and kind hearted .
Just know that the UK prime minister, Rishi Sunak, is an East African (father born in Kenya & mother in Tanzania). He should be proud to embrace his African heritage.
Is he doing anything for his birth place
He would never good luck with that 😂
Yet he is one the most xenophobia prime minister that UK ever had. while at same time being a son of an immigrant parents. This is a pure definition of selling your soul and who you are for money and power. This is why Ethiopians look down on them they're willing to do anything for money. 🪳🪳🪳
Ivan there is a heavy Indian presence in the West Indies and South America. In Trinidad and Tobago, Guyana, Suriname and some in Jamaica and Belize as well in Africa where they were taken to Kenya, South Africa and the Mauritius Islands. The British imported Indians under contract from India as indentured laborers after Slavery was abolished because the formerly Enslaved Africans refused to work on the sugar plantations even if they would be paid to do so. They also worked to help the British to build the Railroads in Africa.The terms of the contract was for a period of five years and they were promised a return trip back to India. Some eventually returned but most stayed the majority of which were of the Dalits or what was considered from the lower cast. The indentured service was also offered to Portuguese from Madeira and Cape Verde and Chinese a well at different period. The indentured labors were able to keep their name , culture,religion and to some extent language as opposed to what was not afforded the formerly enslaved Africans.
Very interesting! Thanks for pointing this out!
Priya @20:33 should have noted that the current UK Prime Minister has roots in Indian Kenyan. His biography states that his father, Yashvir Sunak, was born and raised in the Colony and Protectorate of Kenya, which is present-day Kenya. I have Indian Kenyan neighbors in the Upper Eastern region of Kenya. They have truly integrated into the local community, and some have even married locals. These individuals speak the local languages fluently while still preserving their own cultural identity, native language, and faith.
Thanks for the feedback. It’s very interesting and fascinating. Thanks so much !
But it isn't common practice for them to marry out of their community.
@@esem135
I agree that it isn't common, but if you visit Kathama ka Indi in Meru, a place literally named "Indian place," you will discover individuals of mixed Meru and Indian heritage due to their relationships. Furthermore, you will come across Indians who are fluent in Kimeru. Interestingly, one of the current Members of Parliament in Meru has Indian ancestry.
This is prove africans are the best humans........they are so welcoming

The conversation is very interesting; I am 5th generation South African Indian, my ancestors are from South India and were brought by the British to Durban South Africa in 1860 to work on the sugar cane plantations. My ancestors worked very hard buiiding schools, temples mosques for the communtiy. I am proud of my Indian origin but I cannot live in India. I share the same sentiments with the gentlemen. Most of my family have moved out of South Africa and I now live in Australia for the last 34 years.
Why is there so much racism directed at indigenous Africans by members of your community?
The decolonization of Kenya.
It's scary how naive Africans are. Smh
@@listenup2882 my family and I have bee very kind to indigenous Africans. I have been sponsoring a child from Uganda and other parts of Africa through World Vision. I cannot comment on the behaviour of otherrs. I also assist other Kenyans currently. Unfortunately I am not able to answer your questions.
The most racist group of people in Kenya. Kenyans are friendly by nature, but they can always spot racial and class discrimination, and unwillingness to assimilate. That's a fact. An Indian will leave you out of a promotion to give it to an Indian relative from India who you have taught on the job, pay them better than natives. On a positive note, Indians have consolidated their investments and have made it possible for most of Kenya to industrialized, that means jobs.
Industrialization must be return to local Kenyans the foreign banks contributed to this by giving big loans to Indians and very little to the natives
Kenyan Indians fought hard for Kenyan Independence.. Kenya owes a lot to the Kenyan Indians.. There is no Kenya without Tribe #44/Kenyan Indians..

Africans are treated like crap anywhere outside of Africa
Marawa did a vlog about the black people in India who are called Sidis and they are treated like garbage in India. It broke my heart. Black people are the only race that doesn't stick together. This is our weakness around the world. This is why we are the laughing stocks of the world.

Try to visit Eastleigh/Nairobi where Somali people live and pls be so curious it helps and educates us cuz i know I'd never waste my time watching an entire long video thats not educative 😅😅

Does susan have a youtube account?
They don't allow any Kenyans to live there? That was DEEEEEP!!!
Very Deep indeed!

This black girl is rude. Someone tells you that his great grandfather is born in Kenya and you still asking him question as he is not Kenyan. You are the ones pushing them to live in community because of such resentment.
Correct
It's the same as being Black & born in London. NONE of the "Anglo-Saxon" mob regards US AS British & they use this phrase about US "A DOG born in stable doesn't make it a horse" I like the Celts though, lovely authentic people, not so much the "Anglo-Saxons" a bit TOO pompous, self righteous & aggressive for me
Ivain ! Are you still in Kenya ?
Am born and raised in kenya from somali descent i feel its ok for them to live like that teach and preserve their tradition to the generations kenyans dont have what i call tradition follow up
Owise their children will get lost same as ours i wouldnt love mu daughter to be so close and comfy with a kenyan she will end up lost at last so thats the best fpr their teenagers
I think it would do your followers good to also talk to Black Africans about their relationship with the Kenyan-Indian community !
My take: Ps. This is not a generalization of everyone. 5:
The Kenyan-Indian Community are beneficiaries of the British colonial race-hierarchy system . Where White people came first, Indians second and Black Africans last in terms of rank and access to everything . Even with the end of colonization unfortunately Indians continued to uphold this air of superiority over black Africans. How was that possible ? Because they control nearly the entire manufacturing industry in Kenya …basically most of them are rich if not middle class ! The British wouldn’t allow black Kenyans to get into the manufacturing business because it would economically empower them to fight for freedom. But somehow, the natives needed everyday goods. To solve this, the British allowed Indians to open factories where they would produce goods to meet the demands of Africans . Of course this allowed Indians to benefit financially and accumulate capital. When colonization ended they used this capital to take over most manufacturing including companies that were formerly owned by white people. This is how they have continued to exercise economic dominance over black people. One of the biggest grievances against them, are the poor labor practices and rampant abuse metted towards black Africans who form the bulk of employees in their factories. This is a well known fact across the country. The racism is mind blowing !Mind you without this Black labor, the Ke Indians wouldn’t be able to operate because their numbers are small. But they remain untouchable because they have the power they buy themselves out of any serious trouble. I believe time will bring justice one day.
Also discrimination in housing against Black people in areas where KE Indians have lived for a long time is well known fact.
On the other hand, we have Indians and Indian movements that diligently fought with Black people against British occupation and really really helped to push for freedom. So its not all Black and white
As an Indian , I'm not agree with you
Indians are successful everywhere eg.usa has highest tax payers community is Indian
With a little help from their friends. It's the same as the USA CREATING a country within A country & GIVING them MORE rights than the indigenous
Hello ivain how you doin bruv
South Africa has the largest Indian community outside India,a population of about 7 million,most of them living in Kwazulu Natal province.
I have managed to resist my attempt to make an objective comment on this vide bcos my thoughts will be very unpreasant to your audiences and the people of Kenya and Afica at large. Is this housing estate exclusive to Indians really happening in Africa? How can this happen on Black African soil with Black African leaders who are mandated to protect the human rights of its citizens across the African continent.
Very interesting question. I tried to find out more but wasn’t able to. I’ll keep digging next time I visit this chapter again. Thanks a lot for watching!
It is happening. This is just another Palestine situation happening to Black Africans.
The Indians were part of the struggle when we were fighting for our freedom. Read more about Pio Gama Pinto and the rest who fought right beside our freedom fighters. That is the reason they were allowed to stay.

****Ivain, make sure you visit Black Indians in India. They are called the Siddis. India marginalized them into the mountain. Their living condition is far from the good life of Indians in Kenya. They have been in India since the 1800s.
Thanks for the feedback! One day, I’ll make it to India. My goal with my vlogs isn’t to compare ills, judge or denigrate.
There are injustices all over the world. I simply want to expose some unknown facts that I discover during my travels. There’s good and bad in every country and the challenge is to strike a balance and not denigrate or judge complex issues I don’t fully understand. Thanks for watching!

Hi greetings to you showing video about indians in Kenya, I'm South African Indian we share the same culture, traditions, religion.
As Susan get in the vibe change
There is segregation in Kenya based on income (those with economic advantages) and those who are in a different class, they live in various communities in Nairobi.
In Gorakhpur it does Still exist. I have been there and that is why I do know about it. 🇸🇴🇸🇴🇸🇴
And are you OK with this? These other nations who are in Africa for more than one generation are quite at home in Africa but the Siddis - Africans in India after 500 years, are STILL treated like outsiders and when they speak the native common language, Indians are shocked and ask how they come to know that. Plus they suffer apartheid in India (on top of the caste system which exists defacto) - and needless to say the Indians are most inhospitable to them. But you seem quite pleased to welcome these nations to Africa - who treat Africans - in Africa - as though they are 3rd class citizens! When and how will we ever learn, African?
Siddis are slaves that ran away and hid in the forests from their colonial masters.. 99.99% of Indians are unaware of what a Siddi is.. India is a very big country - the largest with the most population..
@mikirose2598 Most of them will never because they are so mentally enslaved and they just can't see the end of the tunnel. So very Sad.
I was in Kenya late January and I observed how wealthy Indians treated their Kenyan employees. Needless to say-I will not return and give them business again
An extremely informative vlog, your best yet in my view. I watched it over three days, and would have watched more. I'm Jamaican so anything about the motherland attracts my interest. There is just so much to unpack.
First, I wish the African residents in India, the Siddis, enjoyed as much acceptance. Generally, the Indian presence in Africa, is a relative success, when compared to the British playing God, and imposing their will on other innocent peoples around the globe. Case in point, the Jews in Palestine, the Rohingyas in Myanmar, enslavement of my African ancestors, and countless other atrocities and violations.
In praise of your efforts as a vlogger, were I 45 years younger, I would certainly entertain thoughts of relocating to the motherland, and Kenya especially. Kenya's standards compared to Ghana and others, are very impressive, despite the atrocities endured.
Thank you so much for watching. I agree wholeheartedly. Kenya is an amazing country and there’s so much to see and learn about the motherland. I truly appreciate your time watching this. It is certainly a subject that I will revisit again in the future. Thanks for the feedback.

Hi Ivan lots of indians living in Jamaica 🇯🇲
True true. Thanks for watching!
It may be abolished but old ideas and traditions are hard to break.
True!
How can Kenyan government allowed that, Indian don't allowed African in Africa what's wrong with African
Bribery
The class system is very strong in the Indian Community. The lighter skin Indians do discriminate against the darker skin Indians; and at the same time, they do not share much in common.
How is that even possible an Indian person will tell a Kenyan people not to live in they own country. Come on man
Caste Discrimination can be described as ‘discrimination based on work and descent’, meaning that because of the occupation or the family a person is born into, they are socially excluded, economically deprived and subject to violence and abuse.
great wrk ivian
Thanks a lot for watching!
british prime minister has kenyan roots
Like he pays taxes there. Nothing to be proud about.
@@swts4k i just said he has roots here, same as obama. the tax issue is a different issue.
@@swts4k thats a fact whether you decide to be proud of it or not which actually didnt say i am. focus
Still, the "roots" information remains useless.
@@swts4k whether useless or not its the fact
How do they treat the Kenyans
