I LOVE YOU
Jamal is a great down to earth American who has brought in a lot of new developments and has contributed tremendously in the Zambian basketball community. He coached and mentored me before I left for the US on a full basketball scholarship at GCCC Panama City, Florida. From there I was recruited (yet on another full basketball scholarship) to a university in South Carolina in the NCAA D-2 on the Peach-belt conference. I am the first female in Zambia to get a full basketball scholarship to the US. I also worked with Jamal under Miles and Associates program, a student mentor-ship program encouraging students all over Zambia on how to excel through both academics and sport combined. Thanks Jay! Keep doing what you doing.
Wow your an amazing testament!
Please encourage him to get his Zambian citizenship. The continent must not lose him.
Scholarships do not easily come by, well done on your hard work.
Go Gurl! You already made History. Jamal is clearly a great man (all Jamal's are great😉) & you are making him proud by making his good works a fulfilled & gratifying investment with a good return. God bless your education, career & total future.
What a Blessing!
Highly intelligent black people is a breath of fresh air. I have been planning a move myself
Very True A Breath Of Fresh AIR.
Mista Sandman welcome in advance
Please move and stay there... No one will miss you
I’m going to West Africa this year.
Jamal has done a lot for Zambian youth in the arts and sports! He is simply an amazing guy
Do u know this guy on a personal
@@sageAgainstTheMachine Yes Sir
If every African American contributes to Africa his knowledge, skills and whatever he got. Africa will transform itself.
Some of us are coming back home
@@harveylewis4201❤🎉🎉🎉
And as africans we have a part to play in welcoming our brothers and sisters well and learn from each other
Proud to be African
we have the best continent in the world
Daadir noor Agreed!
I'm an AA, but I consider myself African and I agree!👏👏👏
@@k.c.5426 u welcome bro
Time to make it happen
K. C. AA?
Africa to the world 👍👍
And Jamaica "to the world" ;)
Very encouraging... We are moving back.. Amazing
No we are not.
Lily Mutamz Greetings from BAG in The Gambia
I like this guy he is a "do-er" and not a "talk-er". Also he is not overly critical of others that does not follows his footsteps unlike other diaporians from the United States on youtube, and "we know who they are on youtube", but have a pragmatic approach to people choices whether they want to relocate to the continent or not. He is a very smart guy, and really helping and accomplishing something other than "talking", but rather "walking" the walk.
Brian you said it 100% right
right at least he is actually HELPING
Brian Gibson:. I couldn't have said it better myself. I don't like when people try and lecture you about coming to Africa because they are there. This guys just said do your research. Not enough people want to do research they would rather just fall in line. Research is the key.
Brian Gibson Greetings from The Gambia
I just found out by looking up statistics on travel from the US to other parts of the world this year that Africa is the least visited annually by US citizens. Only between 1-2% of those who travel outside the US each year go to Africa, which is really a shame. Support Africa if you can.
@kiks lilo How can you generalise Africa though? So Uganda it's Africa or country in Africa?
jieli bai Greetings from The Gambia
Kiks lilo,
I am sorry but if you have been watching Wode Maya you will see that African countries are not all the same.
I am sorry but Uganda is Uganda. Only speak from what you know. Do not generalise.
Thank you. Be blessed
@kiks lilo Maybe you should come to Chicago and experience safety.
jieli bai I’m American I traveled to Gambia and met my husband there
6 days to get wodemaya to 300k..pls let's push this young guy to make history.. He really done a fantastic job under the year review.. Africans we can do it...
Am saying my prayers for 30000subs.
We did it!!
Eric Newman DONE!!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
We need to learn more about his story!! Come on Wode.. you have to keep sharing these story of Black Americans making lives in Africa.
Yes
Check his channel, he has MANY. We're in the midst of another Back to Africa movement like the last one in the 60s and 70s.
I agree
I was born in Zambia stayed for 15 years. That was during president Kaunda's time. I just loved Zambia.
I'm considering moving to Zambia from South Africa, Zambia is a country that wants to improve and wants to better the lives of its people and all I want is to help Zambia flourish
Greetings from The Gambia and formerly from Clarksville TN.
All the best man, I’m thinking of relocating to Zambia too...
I’m from Tampa Florida and I visited 🇰🇪 Kenya in 2000. I simply love the vibes in Africa.
I'm Black Brazilian and I really like to watch these videos about Black people moving back to Africa. Black Brazilians should start think the same. Back to the roots
I love this brother and am inspired by him!
I live in E. Baltimore. Born and raised in the DMV. Creating a way to get to Ghana or a place on the continent that God leads me to.love the concise interview.
He's from my hometown! Same side of town too. Very inspiring.
I been planning to move for 4 years now and finally is happening June 2021 am coming to Motherland
thats awesome. which country bro?
Welcome home brother. Africa is your birthrite. You may have been born and raised in the diaspora, but your roots, your ancestors, have been Afrikan long before your forced sourjern in Amerikkka. Do not accept the false narrative that Afrikans hate you or do not identify with our AA, south American or Caribbean brothers and sisters. We know that we are one. And we know that you are one of us. Come back home. This is your land. You are welcome anytime anywhere on the continent. Come home!!
Big up👍🏿
Welcome home bro
Come you will find as here in Zambia home is home.
Wonderful Jamal. My grandson would have done well there. Wode maya you did it again. Another successful informative video. The diaspora presence in Africa is reassuring. Happy Holidays and enjoy your mum and family. ☃️☃️☃️❄️❄️❄️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸✝️🤗🥰
Africa to the world 👌👌👌👌👌👌
Beautiful place from what I have seen over the air waves.
Benedicta Afful please do not use the ok sign here in America it’s a white power sign. It’s racists. Do your research
Wow this deep I just decided to watch this video I'm here in Baltimore and that's a biggggg move. Very inspiring
VERY DOWN TO EARTH....HUMBLE MAN ...VERY REFRESHING! GOOD JOB WODE.
Thank you for the work you are doing in Zambia, May God greatly reward your efforts.
I know for sure that the Zambian people are very appreciative of your work.
What more can I say Wode...you are the man!! Keep connecting Africa and the greater diaspora!! #1LUV
Great Son of Africa Woda Maya, Check the impact Africa to the World Movement is producing, it's really Awesome. Our Afro Americans brothers and Sisters are really Happy for the Movement. There Ancestors Mother Continent awaits them with Open Arms full of Love, Time is Now. Br Jamal and many other Afro Americans that have already relocated to many different parts of Africa have the story to tell, come back and you will see how the inner peace will visit you because this is where you belong. God bless.
Thanks for felt in love with our beautiful continent. Asonaba Kwabrafoso Obuasi
Yeah.... Africa is just a beautiful place to live in.
Wow, I'm really impressed by how long you been living in Zambia..... good to hear. Also, try and visit Ghana🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇺🇸🇺🇸 because we are also coming in 2020.
He is Ghanaian
I think so too 😀😀😀👍
@@elijahtheo5812 yes
Shepherd's pie Channel welcome in advance
July 2020 with my family and a mission team.
Jamal is blessed with a wonder spirit. He vibrates high by making a career by developing other people's career opportunities. He's not Mentally Enslaved...He values being in an environment in which others treat him well. Courtesy, Dignity, Respect go a long way.
Short, sweet and to the point. Well done, Wode Maya!
This is wonderful,l my friend... please keep up the good work.
Thanks for selling my country to the world.
Good job brother for the work that you are doing in Mama Africa. We appreciate you.
A.J. Aruna Exactly
Great interview Maya. You are a true ambassador.
Good job Wode Maya
""Don't stay in the diaspora because you don't have an option but because it's part of the plan"" this is my watch word every day in this foreign land
Aye!! Someone from my the DMV making moves in Africa!! I love it.. I can’t wait to get there and do the same💯❤️💪🏽💪🏽
Wow, pretty amazing that Jamal dedicated his life to giving back to Africa, when he really didn't have to. I pray for blessings on him and his endeavors. As for the Wode Maya guy (1st time I've watched his channel)...your mom must be so proud of you. Blessings to you as well!
Wode maya should be a professional journalist. Good guy!
He is! Those working for BBC and CNN are not the only professionals. There are a number of journalists working for smaller operations or independently too.
Woda thanks, br Jarmal has already reconnected to his roots, Africa is where home is guys over there, all African Americans come back home. Your beloved Continent, Mother Africa Yearns for You.
Evaristo Siame Greetings from BAG in The Gambia
Great job brother. Africa is beautiful and safe.come home and experience my fellow African Americans.
My friend from Poland living in Livingston he is a catholic priest missionary working with difficult youth. Greetings🍻
This is good. Am so proud of Zambia. You did well Jamal. Thanks Maya
It's great to see African Americans heading forward to Africa to contribute when you see people like this making these moves you gotta wonder what's really the hype in staying in America when there's so many fresh opportunities to start from in Africa
You got the point
Glad he is doing great and love Africa. Hope others will join and feel welcomed home.
toni dury Greetings from BAG in The Gambia
I checked out most of the globe, now i I will check out Zambia! Thanks ase
Excellent interview Woda! He gave great reasons and information on how and why he moved to Africa/Zambia. He told us who he was, where he was from and when and why he moved to the continent. Love that he took advantage of his options and left this racist country behind. Shout out back to you from the DMV. For those that don't know that means the three state area of the District of Columbia (Washington, D.C), Maryland and Virginia. I'm born and raised in D.C. I love that he's giving back to the youth of Zambia by operating the basketball camp. It's about time that African youth take advantage of their height and ball handling skills to play basketball. They can go to college free in the U.S. on basketball scholarships, then go on to the NBA and become millionaires. Thanks for the informative interview Woda.
We want those millions to be made in Africa.... For Africa to compete at world level not to leave motherland to make millions elsewhere
Underrated video , this is great ....... smart caption Maya
wow 🤩 thank you very much, brother, for what you are doing in Zambia 🇿🇲 💕
Just reached out to this Brov.
Glad to have in our Country.🇿🇲
From US. ❤❤
Good job Woda! The brother is from my neck of the woods. DMV as they call it now.
Wow! What a great dude. God will reward him for his efforts. gOD BLESS HIM.
Although it wasn't our choice but it is our privileged.
Love it
I guess Africa is a land of hoops to certain African Americans. We thank you from America for keeping our minds entertained with sports from talent in Africa. Not me but to my fellow citizens I am saying thanks.
that's what i like to see, thank you wode maya, and thank to our american brother for doing what is necessary for our community in this world. as an african, A BLACK, i'll do my part too
I so agree with him. My first time on the continent was in Ghana and it really had a great effect on me. I now want to move to the continent
ebonie55 welcome in advance
@@blackacresofthegambia thanks family
Best decision 👍
Nice you are welcome family.
Very insightful.
Wow, wow, & wow! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this interview & conversation!
Absolutely incredible!!!
Adrina Monet Agreed!
As a Zambian I'm proud that we are a peaceful loving and welcoming country.
I'm even more proud to be African because our diversity is comparable to none
Happy to hear Baltimore representing. Taking my 1st trip to Africa in March.
Great interview, he found a gap and came with the necessary skills and resources to fill it!
Nice one
I'm moving to Zambia in about 2 weeks and I've got mixed feeling.... a bit gutted i will say! 😯
How was it
Thank you for loving our country.
So glad to hear this guy. I wanted to see a page on him.
Watching brother from DMV DMV

Wode Maya Thank You For Sharing This Video My Brother.
Big Respect My Bro Jamal Atkins much respect ✊🏿
Excellent Video...Thank you
What a great interview--Jamal is changing lives. His workouts with the players in his community look terrific and it obviously have paid off as evidenced by the comment below from Tara Nyikavaranda!
I'm coming to Africa and I'm going to hangout with Maya.. Watch out because the yellow african connection is going to free the world!
He is speaking the truth... never let anyone tell you nothing but do your own research. Books, internet ask questions and all is right there. Free world!
Val k Exactly right
Thank you buddy for investing in our young people.
is goin amezing to amezing good job both of you , keep do it thanks
Mr. Atkins Look forward to meeting you someday.
A very Powerful interview @wodemaya Thanks also for making his contact information available.
THANKS WODE MAYA,
THANKS Coach ATKINS, it is noted for your address! I just have a little time to spend before I come back to settle permanently.
love this!
Love this African American's down to earth attitude so rare.
@D&B just like I'm wary of African immigrants. A lot of bad stories about them, even by Caribbeans.
It's not as rare as you think, you've probably been around the wrong people.
Man I like the way you put it down man keep it up bro thank you
Thank you!
Meant to comment to person that referred video. Good info here. Thanks
This is great to hear. I grew up in Zambia, and played a ton of basketball in my youth back in the 1980s. But there was very much lack of development. We had track-and-field folks from the US who might come by, but not basketball. Not that we were spectacular. But there is this one exception that always filled me with regret. There was this one woman in Lusaka who I used to play and practice with quite often. Zambia didn't really have women's basketball at the time, so she played with men's teams. She was an absolute natural talent at it. She had a wonderful handle on the ball, a complete guard, who could outdo any man she was up against, by miles. And a hardworking dedication to improve it - every day, she was at it. But she had nowhere to go next, no one to take her to the next rung. It was heartbreaking to see her have to gradually give up what she loved. I lost touch with her many years ago, but I always wonder what could have been had someone spotted her talent. I am glad you are there and won't let girls like that slip through the cracks anymore.
Africa is the place for us. Thank you brither. You're an inspiration
Thank you Wode Maya for the work you do. Inspiring
Oh thank you for loving Zambia,I adore you to bits.
Great words from Jamal love his transferring his knowledge on the court and in the tech. Industry.
DMV represent represent!!! Thank you, @wodemaya for having a brother from the DMV (District, Maryland, Virginia) area.
