- Of all of West Africa, Senegal is probably the country that has been affected the most my environmental chances that are impacting the oceans. Subject to the wrath of Mother Nature, the seafaring people have a dilemma to face, should they take to the open seas, or stay put?
Elsewhere, wedged between the vast wildernesses of the Atlantic and the Sahara, Mauritania was born of sand and wind. In order to survive there, people became nomads. A tough way of life, this forged the identity of their nation, however this is now disappearing.

Brave hardworking Africans with strong resilence and courage challenging everyday the harsh lifestyle of beautiful Africa
That woman made my day! What a great inspiration from the pain of losing g her only son. God bless you ma’am!
Ameen🤲
Our continent, our home that birthed all mankind. Always amazes me when I come across these documentaries. Enjoys watching and learn a lot from it.
I love watching such doccie. Always interest me to see my people still living in such beautiful nature❤❤❤
Well Said Diva
Africa will never get my vacation money! Hating white people keeps them poor -, unhealthy , and dumb
Me too..I agree..even tho I'm not African I find it so interesting and it's a part of all of our history..and I feel ashamed that Belgium and others treated our brothers and sisters so badly shame of history will always be on them
I really enjoyed the view into this way of life so far from my own. This is really cool. It would be so nice for school age children to see different cultures like this. They are happy dealing with their environment having fun and appreciation for something as simple as a cup of tea...
I really need to evaluate my priorities. BlESS US ALL THE ENTIRE WORLD 🌏❤️🌹
This is incredible. I loved the watching and hearing the peoples way of life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It hit different when you watch it from the diaspora may God bless our ppl
May we forget this is who we are/were. We who lives in the diaspora are living other cultures ideas of living,we've lost or forgotten our true identities and living that of foreign and only becomes visitors of of our heritage land. Foreign is not necessarily progress.
I think protecting their environment and tradition is the best way in this year!!!
100%
Love from the Gambia 🇬🇲
Love ❤️ 😍 from Haiti 🇭🇹
@@GPS509Africa love Haitians
ive been obsessed with africa for the past few months. i really hope to visit one day.
i am native american and have noticed so many similarities between our teachings and plenty of indigenous africans. i had to do a double take yesterday at some beadwork i saw (in another vid) because the embroidery was identical to ours. a lot of our beliefs are the same too, such as offerings and respect for nature, etc.. and i know these are pretty general but ive noticed plenty more similarities.
.. im in a really bad place right now but learning about africa and its PEOPLE especially 😁 has been getting me through it. it leaves me longing for .... a sense of belonging, i guess.
sure, when i visit one day.. i will stand out but it is my dream to make and exchange some of my regalia and beadwork with a tribe that maintains a connection with their traditions.
Blablabla, oh la la
how about the invitation to visit Africa?🌐✈
@@abisanyaolu8100 Oh how I've been wishing 😄 🤣 My fascination stands strong 💪
Bad place??Can you change it with your embroidery artistic skills a little by little??. In my case birds can see and help our work. Sky is one fabric.
@@blablabla9348. I too have seen the basket works of native Americans and taught that it is very similar and some identical, Africans love native Americans because we are alike culturally and the respect given to elders and chiefs.
Whenever you want to visit, you are more than welcome. I do clothes and am sure some of your product could appeal to some of my clients, it's a diversity of cultures but with seemingly one root. I am from Zimbabwe but currently in South Africa.
Africa is the next best thing ❤❤
This is well told..thank you for the share
This was GREAT!!!! I felt as though I had left the States and was in paradise!!!! Please do more of these educational videos. Thank You for the journey.
Beautiful country with good Beautiful people... i love my Afrikans people... they give me alot of Sudanese vibe...Africa we are 1..JEHOVAH bless us his children's... the salt man got zero fat on his body pure fitness... I'd love to visit Senegal... Senegal will win worldcup
Africa rubbish everywhere . Pick up rubbish does not cost nothing.
@@iwonalasak-hughes5814 😂😂😂... is Romania not in Europe 🤔 is Slovakia not in Europe 🤔... visit those countries and shut your mouth
I bet they will!!!!
Maintaining the old legacy, buildings which were practically made by hand, with the sweat of the past generations, is a good thing, I believe. I like the cozy old houses, with bricks and stones, with fireplaces, nothing of the buildings of today can supplant such buildings. It's a return home 🏡😌💕
Hi blablabla,it's very interesting to
Read about your fascination with African cultures etc .I am from Nigeria 🇳🇬 and happened to have spent some time in
the USA 🇺🇸. I was very interested in
native Americans too with their long and challenging history. I think in general we share a lot in common. I hope you have the opportunity to visit
Africa in the near future and wish you the best 👌 ❤❤.
Hi, I just took notice of your comment! Im lucky I saw it. Love to Nigeria 🇳🇬 ❤ I hope your country is doing okay.
I hope you enjoyed the USA! I lived in Florida for my childhood:D 🇺🇸
I think its so cool that you took note of the native americans. we share too many similarities especially when it comes to whats been lost. so many africans are resilient and i admire the strength of those who keep a smile 😃
Wonderful authentic documentary!
SENEGALESE . WONDERFUL PEOPLE. GOD BLESS SENEGAL FOREVER❤ 🇸🇳 🌹🙏
Nice❤ i love traditional senegal culture ❤
Bonjour Senegal from Belarus
Sir I surely enjoy your hard work wrath while watching.
I watched the hill founded by my ancestors, disappear and turn into a desperate violent place, and for me it is gone forever, I have been seeing many loss what they call home, home a lose world in and of itself lost and only a golden memory of what was. Unfortunately, I see this before video and know it will most likely be under water in the next 20 years.
Thank you for this movie
Wow!!!!so interesting!!!!!!!
Vibrant, Industrious ppl n lively culture...im so impressed with the lady Fisher woman who wants to establish some form of patriotrism n love for country in the young; interesting nomad living ; most important of all the saving of manuscripts/ information- extremely important! Wonder what's going on in allllll of these villages these days?.... Do they even exist? Informative video!
Incredible !
i enjoyed watching this i would love to visit senegal & mali
Love this interesting documentary,great from Nederland
Let us protect our heritage
Learning a mental map
Isn't something everyone can easily understand
i love to hear the original voices from the local people.. better use word translation. ty
all these people are real love
Wow what a women Africa needs more presidents like her!
Interesting that the big sister to those mentioned that “foreigners come here & run the fishery”…amazing that colonial powers have effected every element of society to this day.
Unfortunately it will never end
..em.lawa
Nya..em..
Although the food wasn't enough but they shared .
Africa needs one Aim one destiny as one nation of the same people,
Good luck with that
Africa needs to drop the name Africa. As long as the European name of Leo and Scipio Afrikanus is on the continent it will always be divided and weak.true strength is not an avaricious desire for physical wealth. It is journey to know self. Once you find out who you are, your identity is no longer a mystery. There's no bigger mystery than the mystery of self. Africa needs to return to it's true identity.
Agree
Africa has as more diverse peoples than China. I'd love to see the African countries come together.
This American lifeatyle is a privilege and also a curse.
These people will not suffer if and when the electrical grid fails.
But there are 100's of different dialects, hundred of different tribes or clans, all the different countries, rich in customs, culture, foods, language, traditions, corrupt politicians and archaic beliefs in wives tales hold the people back and suppress them financially, why would you try and force so very many different peoples and regions to become one? I'm fairly well traveled in Northern Africa, Morocco for example, you cannot expect muslim Moroccans to just assimilate magically with Christian Nigerians, africa is huge, too many countries, people's, they cannot just ALL become one, stamp out the corruption, the crooked politicians, if that could happen Africa and its myriad people could shine and thrive.....
How about employee owned fishing processing plants

What is the medical hazard(s) of working in the Salt Mines; it so, what does the industry provide to the workers for Health Care?
No one on this earth can endure what I ancestors went through and what we are going through now. God continue to give us strength, and punish the enemies that comes up against us. Amen 💕✌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
Well Said" Thanks for your word
😂😂😂 Except that has not happened in centuries the god image is still white. Africans need to get up and stand up for their rights @Bob Marley. No miracles.
Why are they fighting to keep their traditions? Leave them alone. I understand sustainable living and doing your part to save the animals, forests, plants, air and water but their tradition isn't harming the earth it's the greedy companies!!
They are fighting for their lives and livelihoods, their families, homes and future. They seem to have been royally screwed by their government. And the Atlantic Ocean has turned on them.
What the flip should they do if not fight on? They can’t just “Leave them alone” , seriously.. How would they live?
They can’t come to Europe because of the anti immigration nonsense, even if they wanted to leave. The Mediterranean has become a graveyard. It’s horrible.
We should all send money to this woman and support her to find solutions, and fight for her community.
They are not just “doing their bit for the environment”, they’re trying desperately to sustain some kind of tolerable existence in the face of the catastrophic consequences of corporate greed .
Halllelujah
In the case of Chris Murungaru.He did not set up an A.I center,but embryo transfer facility. This would offer dairy cattle breeders access to the best animal genetics sourced from different parts of the world.

Bulldozers...you need to invest in bulldozers to move the sand back daily....you would do well to use drip line irrigation, as it would use 5% of the water you are currently using to flood the fields.
Covering the planting beds with 14mm double sided poly, would hold in the usable dirt, which you could easily make by composting, it holds in moisture and therefore uses less water.
To make compost into dirt in 21 days, you need to layer the materials - green plants, dry plants, kitchen scraps, rotten food, coffee grounds and tea bags, brown paper...layer it many times, soak the entire mass...cover with a plastic tarp...if you put it in the sun, it will heat up quickly!!! 220 c and even hotter...must be kept wet....turn every 3 days, moisten to that of a rung out sponge, and cover...in 21 days you will have usable soil - high in nutrients- amazing to add to sandy soil to make it usable...2/5 sand, 3/5 compost
You will see a huge increase in your production and a reduction in water usage
Good luck and God bless
You are a wonderfull person, giving out this useful advice! Peace be with you!
@@oliviamonteque6407 we farmers need to honor our forefathers by retaining the information they have shared with us throughout the generations - but we must also learn new methods of farming and incorporate them with our generational knowledge.
When I was young farming families traded their sons and daughters with other farmers during summer, to teach us the techniques and methods of farming livestock and vegetation known by other families. We were taught your produce and grazing grass is only as good as the soil it grows in and adding chemicals depleats the soil, flushing it of its natural nutrients.
I see farmers today wait until the fruit is ripe then they all harvest together, decreasing their profit because of mass supply - instead of picking the fruit/ veg at 65% ripeness, 80% ripeness and 100%...the 100% is for family use and roadside sale, very little is picked at peak ripeness as this has to be used immediately.
The 80% ripen food will be set in the upper fruit cellar and this will be about 50% of the crop, not frozen but cold enough to last until Christmas, where you can sell it and get the best price, as no other farmers use a cold storage cellar any more...the food picked at 65% is the food you eat during the year until the next crop, it can be ripened as needed and it makes up 35% of the crop...
To ripen fruits and vegetables that are not fully ripened - place cheese cloth over box or basket, put large potatoes inside the basket onto cheese cloth, put the fruit on top of potatoes, cover with the cheese cloth, set into a dark cupboard, the potatoes release ethanol naturally at night which will ripen them to taste the same as if they were on the vine...
To make the best compost use ;1) dry yard matter- leaves, grass, etc 2) wet yard matter - green grass, weeds, leaves, etc 3) kitchen scraps, rotted fruts/ veg, coffee grounds, egg shells, brown paper bags, newspaper ( I use my newspaper to cover everything and hold in moisture )
Layer everything...keep it wet...it should take 3 days ( north America) to reach 220c, but it will be far more quick in the heat of the hot sun...be sure to keep it wet, this keeps the microbes responsible for breaking it down into soil wrinkly alive...after the oxygen is depleted the temperature cools...here it takes 3 days, in Africa it may only take 1 or 2...be sure to wet the pile as you turn it over and separate the big chunks, more surface area and smaller pieces means the microbes can get in and break it down.
I do not put sticks in my compost pile, I have a water bin I crush the sticks and soak them - some take a year to break down completely...I use this water as a compost tea, both on my compost pile and straight on my garden - if it is very dark - or thick, be sure to water it down...always wash you hands after handling compost.
Do not worry about seeds from weed plants in compost...the first time the compost reaches 220 degrees Celsius and cools the seeds will all open...the second time it reaches 220 degrees the seeds will die in the heat becoming food...
Do not put meat, do not put raw eggs, do not put bread or bones in your compost...( only bones that have been boiled and are brittle may be put in compost - meat, bread and raw eggs have been kinked with ligeonaires disease and composting...be safe )
I agree with the proposed name change.
Does the donations go to the intended people it is collected for? How can you be trusted to do right by people who are in need?
The earth is angry from man's lack of compassion and understanding of the holiness of its Creator. Some humans could be very creative, but also destructive. No respect for nature and life, itself. That's the reason of anger from the sea. And you are right, and artist brings reflection. I am an artist as well, and I love to capture that moment of nature's stances, those will never be repeated, its a moment in time never replaceable.
I’m sorry, wow 42:25 42:35😊
Them salt lakes are HHO fuel more powerful then oil worth more then oil.
Please elaborate
Re-run, just like tv.
People do everything
Africans need to stop been so nice and kind it has not got Africa anywhere so far
Can you please return back to the desert and visit the old man and his family again ...
There is so much $ that "goes into" Africa from many sources. why would I donate to something that I don't know if its going to the proper place?
It goes to corruption
@@brucelee4president783true😓
My friend, Africa does not need donations, it just want be left alone. Civilisation is a relative term. If only neo-colonials will leave Africa alone, to develop in their way and in their pace the whole world would be a better place.
Who need you help ? We senegal don't we're not living on donations we work hard and earn .when it come to africa you'll think about hunger suffering wake up this is 2024 not 1700s century 😮
These people are survived through circle and many languages carrying their trophies.
Change the name Saint Louis or whatever it is from that European name to an indigenous African proud name start with that
Maybe they like that name. You ever think that they're not as petty as you?
@@jeffw.9358petty my foot... There are no African names to anything in Europe...... That name needs changing and that's not petty.
@@chiyenyumba7135😂😅💯 that saint came, brought a Bible with him, and on the return leg loaded up Africans on ship like a commodity. Nothing sainthood about that..
@jeffw.9358, fyi the city's name is Ndar. It's the European that named it Saint Louis
Us senegaleses mostly call it “Ndar” anyway, its original name
Looks like a island full of just buildings.
Fisher people!
This is what Europe, Japan, America, China cause to the life of people that have nothing to do with misusing the planet with their greed!
A warning to the wise if you live by the ocean move inland if you live in the forest move away from trees just that simple has nothing to do with money but command sense. The guy with the bike sould use steel wool on that chrome to make it shine like new money restoration oil on those chains and spokes also use electric wheel steel to remove rust as far as the buildings go tear down all those buildings where the sea is coming in recycle the materials and use them to remodel the other buildings that have not make it a people effort.
I wish it was simple like you think, but love your generous idea.❤
It may be sad but the earth is wiping away the markings of slave war,

Heard WHAT he said the Europeans came and took ALL the fish Under the so called Trade Agreement 😢
😢
It hurt me too, and the European are asking why are they coming to us… you took their livelihoods what do you expect …. Simply.
She said The Europeans have fish preparation industries right there….too 😢😢😢😢

whoever watch this documentry is suporting war in ukraine by helping them get funds or should i say american created war
They talk much about how climate change is affecting them w/ more ssnd.
Something that MAGAts like to clame doesn't exist. Something should be done from different regions, continents, if not countries, on how climate change isn't a hoax & how it's affecting everyone. & it's much easier to hear the translation than try to read it. Ty. 🐱🐱
these documentaries are beautiful but the awful voice over translations really ruin it and make a joke of the dialogue, who on earth had this idea?
The heritage the legacy of your forefathers is who? I get lost in the mixing Arabs with the heritage of the country of Africa. Why do it matter who is 1st. To bring mathematics or astrology. . When the was very clear to say those words in the energy fields I was startled . Truth is what matters to our ancestors. He mentioned his people are in the timelines before Nicolaus Copernicus life 1473 - 1543. Again stating Whois first. Let truth have peace, not the mention of who won the battles of pilgrimaging the materials the people’s that was questionable for all. . No one can hid. The universe is of the laws . This is interesting how I can see , Enjoyed Australia love.
Compassion
so they can keep their traditions alive, then come to Britain and call our traditions racist
:[" Sending Afrikans to suppress the Haitian Revolution is a Western manipulation to create the impression and images of Uncivilized Black on Black Voilence; a proxy war via Afrikan Imperialist Mercenary Slaves."]
Do they want to keep tradition of slavery
No.
Do Europeans & their descents want that too? Slavery was happening everywhere the Arabs used to slaves Europeans the British use to slave their people the Irish 😢 do Europeans want that ?
Putin will go with Wagner fleet and all his missiles. That will be a beautiful landing. Nobody will dare looking at him nor attack his spatial fuselage or vessel ( Air Force One).
Are you barking or what?
oh..i knew global warming would be blamed for migration of a sand spit..
do they think about their pronouns?
actually in wolof (the langauge we speak in senegal) we use the same word for he, she, and it. stop talking about things you dont understand like every other american.

same old story..overpopulation..environmental destruction..decay...
But this doesnt have population like india or china.
Keeping what traditions alive? In this world the Romans,Greek ,Ancient Egyptians ,The British and most recently the Chinese have learned the bitter lesson of adapt ,accept foreign domination or die .

@evans gichunge you have to adapt to new ways or perish.Even big companies like JC Penney ,Renault or Alitalia have known this unpleasant fact.
