I’ve been to 8 African countries, and agree. The Senegalese are the most dignified, beautiful, distinguished and intelligent people I’ve ever seen. Visit Africa!
I stayed in Ghana for 2 years as a blk American. Many of the ppl were very kind but I also encountered an equal amount of rude, pretentious ppl who made stereotypical assumptions about who I was based on my ethnicity and phenotype. A mix of good and bad ppl, like anywhere else on Earth ❤
There was a time before the return when African Americans came down, looked down on us, and wouldn't pay for services because they didn't match up to standards in the US. A very unpleasant time for those in business, but the whites were kinder and more tolerant. . Fortunately, things have improved greatly now
The Bible tells you exactly who they came to get and why. they came to get us Specifically and what was our professions all types of professional people, talented people from every aspect of a successful community. Israelites, they didn’t come get monkeys swinging from trees. They came to get the wandering Jews.

Those of us in the diaspora, make no mistake about it, we are all Africans. I know....i know....Some will deny that fact and say theyre indigenous to America with their "we wuzzery " "We wuz everythaang...."....but African.... I'm not talking about them. Colonial programming has done a NUMBER on some of us. But we are SPECIFICALLY indigenous to West and Central Africa. I recently did my maternal docunenyed lineage and found an ancestor who was brought to my country, name intact & on record. Found out he was a Ga man. That led me down a rabbit hole. Did some research on the Ga people, learned that they are originally from Yorubaland, & migrated into present Ghana and were given land to settle by the Fante people (the authenticity of this narrative is nebulous but its the best I've got so far). I was given an Igbo name at birth. I also know that a large number of the ancestors that were brought to my country, came from the Bight of Biafra, making the possibility of my having genetic ties to the Igbos pretty likely. I immediately ordered a DNA test. Obviously, as diasporans, we will be ethno-genetically Pan-African, but in terms of our ancestral root, its less likely to be in the East with our Kenyan, Ugandan, Rwandan brothers and sisters or in the South with our South African, Malawian, Botswanan etc. brothers and sisters , but largely from the West and Central African regions in Africa. That's where we are from. It's exhilirating and empowering to know that though we are broken natoves, and have created our own subcultures and identities after our ancestors survived the Maafa, we can still touch our roots and rekindle our connections with our people back in our ancestral homelands.
Not everyone in Africa shares the same mindset and ideology. Africa isn’t monolithic, there’s many nations, tribes, ethnicities and cultures that are different.
Great video... That 'therapy' you recommend at 10.30 to 11 minutes... I am all for it. I strongly believe many of these young African-Americans (FBAs?!) who appear deviants and all need to get some perspective from especially Africa... and they will appreciate how much they have back home in the States & probably they will up their game - especially as far as staying in school & landing them big-cheque jobs... I remember Shannon Sharpe shocked when he learned Francis Ngannou did not stay in school back home in Cameroon because his parents lacked the means to pay for his education... there is so much to say on this subject, but I will leave it at that for now... As an aside, I have visited the Elmina Castle in Ghana (2011) and indeed the experience does not leave one the same. I am from Uganda...
We will always be Africans brother! There is no us vs them....WE ARE ONE AFRICAN PEOPLE. We must always remember who erased us from our African identities! We didn't do it to ourselves and therefore we should never allow ourselves to be any less African than any other person of Africa descent whether we were born in America or anywhere else. Phenotypical origin does not changed based on soil.
No your not. And we are not one. I am african and notice you Black americans pick and choose when yyou want to associate yourselves with us. When its us in a positive light, then its yall saying we're one cuz it benefits you all.
Allah created the entire planet. Africa is one of Allah's places. Hawaii, Brazil are just as ORIGINAL to the Blackman as Africa. The whole universe is Black and the name Africa was by a Italian Devil

As a black American, I always had that desire to know my origin. I did the DNA test through ancestry and discovered that my roots are in Africa. 29% Nigerian, 26% Cameroon and other African countries listed. With 1% Greece. 1% Albania. It bothers me when people from other countries don't want to acknowledge another person just like you but living in a different part of the world. The same way that I embrace my blackness in America, I want to be able to embrace my REAL ORIGIN, THE AFRICAN SIDE, without being looked at because I'm born in America. I have nothing but love ❤ for Africa.And every day, I'm trying to learn more about Africa.
Africa's government should engage African Americans to invest in Africa. They should encourage them to be part of the solution for Africa. Africa needs them.

The title of your video is most misleading. He said, "everybody is gentile in the way that they speak and it's very educated." Meaning that, they have an educated way of speaking. So, I hope that you are not implying that African are more educated than African Americans. We make up about 14% of the population in the US and have made tremendous strides towards equality, freedom education, and occupations, both in business, politics and science. We are among the most educated Black people in the world despite the hardship we have endured. In many way, we have come from picking cotton (or the euphemism cotton picker) to astronauts, who broke through NASA and ventured into outer space. Read the book, "We Could Not Fail" to understand the struggles of breaking through NASA. Finally, I have been to Senegal, Gambia, and Mali and, my wife and I, had life changing experiences, as well as having met some wonderful people. I very much would like to visit Ghana, as I have heard great thing about the country. I have also met some extraordinary Ghanaians, some of whom my organization has helped enroll into College Prep Schools in the US. Furthermore, I have great admiration for the president of Ghana, Nana Akufo-Addo, for his stance on the exploitation of African resources and his welcoming Black people in this country. I do not mean to scold, embarrass, disparage, but to clarify some prevailing stereotypes I’ve heard from all corners of the diaspora. When we all understand the world, as it is, we will prevail. Akwaaba!
Africa is a continent with 54 Countries. America is 1/3 or so of the entire Continent of North America. No way should we keep with the narrative of this. We've had since 1977 to pull together and haven't.

African Americans reach out to Africa for what they should be getting from America. Many Africans want to live in the US and the moment they arrive they start to thrive. Nigerians are the most educated migrants, even outperforming Asians. That's right. Even outperforming Asians. So why are African Americans as a group getting left behind by migrants? Because most migrants come from strong families and communities and are united in their sense of values. They are not part of the dark history of America and they are not weighed down by the psychic baggage. What is my point? America owes African Americans a massive debt of gratitude. It's value is enough to uplift every African American to a place of honour and dignity. Unfortunately, now that it's time to collect on that debt, the solidarity of African American communities has been ruined by social diseases such as Neo-Feminism and Gangsterism. The family and community structures that give weight to a common cause - the shared sense of values - all this is almost non-existent today. On the other hand, the migrants are coming with strong families and communities and creating wealth in America. Soon their voting power will outweigh the African American vote. When that happens the politicians will stop listening and caring. African American celebrities can see this day coming and are throwing you all under the bus for their own personal progress.
Are you serious? Yes, African or Asian people may not face the same battles with white supremacy within American systems as African Americans do, and in that sense, we are in a unique “Matrix” system. We Foundational Black Americans (FBA) know we been targeted by white supremacy since the Reconstruction era, but yet we still remain some of the most successful Black people in the world. We’re a cultural superpower- Michael Jai White is starting to see this now after gaining exposure to different countries. Not every African American fully grasps this, but the FBA community does, and change is coming. While Nigerians, for example, are excelling in certain areas, African Americans (FBA) are thriving across many fields. We have more than just celebrities; our influence extends across diverse industries, from space exploration, science to computing etc. Take Mark E. Dean, an African American inventor and computer engineer, who co-created the IBM personal computer in 1981, developed the ISA bus, and led the design of the one-gigahertz computer processor chip. He holds three of the nine patents behind the original IBM PC. Did you know this? So many untold stories like this. From 1900 through the Civil Rights Movement, the world has witnessed the horrific acts committed against African Americans, crimes against humanity including murder, enslavement, torture, and persecution. The International Criminal Court defines these as “widespread or systematic attacks” directed against a people-and in our case, even U.S. law enforcement was complicit. This is why the Civil Rights Movement began, but as African Americans rise, new obstacles have been placed a new playbook was put in-place for the last 70 years. 1. New designer drugs every decades introduction into our communities, 2. Guns flooding our neighborhoods, 3. Economic sabotage through illegal immigrants and migration into the community, eroding generational wealth. 4. This is happening now once again. Despite this 70-year playbook against us, we’re still a cultural superpower, and more people are starting to understand this truth. The FBA community knows what’s happening, and we’re resilient. Change is on the way. **Munyumba Mutwale Applied Economist and Economic Analyst** **June 23, 2020 and 2024 update** If Black America were a country in Africa, they would be the most prosperous nation on the continent by almost every single metric, with: - A GDP PPP African Americans of $2.0 trillion($1.7 trillions) (#1), followed by (#2)South Africa ($401 billion), (#3) Nigeria ($395 billion), (#4) Egypt ($358 billion), (#5) Algeria ($239 billion) and (#6) Ethiopia $192 billion - A GDP per capita at PPP of $30,000 (#1), ahead of Seychelles ($27,572), Mauritius ($22,211), Equatorial Guinea ($20,360), and Botswana ($17,630) - The 4th lowest poverty rate of 17%, surpassed only by Seychelles, Mauritius, and Cape Verde - The most educated population with 85% high school completion, followed by Egypt (67%) and South Africa (64%) - The highest college graduate rate with 25% degree holders - The most access to healthcare with 80% insured - The 2nd most banked nation at 84%, only behind Mauritius at 85% - The 2nd highest life expectancy at 74.8 years, second only to Algeria with 77 years - The lowest death rate at 0.7 per 1,000, outperforming Rwanda, Algeria, Morocco, and Kenya, which all average around 5 deaths per 1,000 - The highest homeownership rate at 45% - The largest employer base (9%) with 2.6 million businesses - The highest employment rate with 67% of the adult population formally employed, followed by Lesotho (43%), Mauritius (42%), and Botswana (41%) - The highest percentage of dollar millionaires at 1%, followed by Seychelles (0.4%), Mauritius (0.3%), and Botswana (0.1%) - The highest wealth per adult at $35,000, compared to an African average of $200 per adult in wealth This is not including what African Americans do for other countries, such as playing at sellout concerts around the world for the last 40+ years. As a result, African Americans generate over $3 trillion.
@@Kemet3.0According to the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), a sector of the U.S. Department of Education, 84 percent of Black students lack proficiency in mathematics and 85 percent of Black students lack proficiency in reading skills.According to Forbes, in 2020, only 18% of Black 4th graders scored proficient or above in reading on national tests, compared to 45% of white 4th graders. For 8th graders, the percentages were 15% and 42%, respectively.
@@Bencarson_1 I'm not saying anything new. Neo-Feminism and Gangsterism or a criminal mindset are destroying the fabric of African American families and communities. The leaders aka celebrities - because there are hardly any real leaders - have sold out to the political mainstream or to the forces of exploitation. There's hardly an African American celebrity that doesn't own or front a liquor brand or a fast food franchise. Individually some African Americans have always been and will continue to be exceptional. That's not my issue. I'm talking about the entire demographic.
No my brother the pass is always required without the pass where is your destination Ecclesiastes 3:15 “That which hath been is now; and that which is to be hath already been; and God requireth that which is past.”

Jai White needs to spend more time in Ghana and educate himself on the history of slavery. Also, he is rich and famous, so he can ecpect respectful treatment and be welcomed. Ghanians in general are resentful and prejudiced against black people from the West, especially when they are mixed.
Black Americans majority are indigenous to the land now called America. This isn’t a slight against Africa this is just the reality. Black Americans have been in the Americas since BC times. Black people were in Americas long before slavery.
Genteel, where and who ? are these Africans that are genteel and educated. The ones that I encountered were rude and arrogant, and felt like they were above black American people, and that the United States owed them. Awful people.

You're wrong Nike is a popular American brand that most Black Americans have made very popular in the USA and around the world and is depiction in what he's saying has a valid merit
@Reign-q7c nope, Nike is all over the world buddy , it's not a Black American brand, it is the white man's brand. There were and are more Afrikans wearing Nike than Black Americans, you want to do a population count comparison with Afrika? No you don't. Did you even know the sweat shops where they make Nike gear are in Vietnam and China?
@eastafrika728 I never said it was a Black American brand I said it was made popular by them they were the forced that save that brand that was falling apart in the 1980's and their turn around came with one name Jordan. Africans wear Americans and Europeans donated old Nike clothes that get sent to them in charity
Arrogant in what way that is y’all and u try to bully Africans and we won’t let u especially this new generation and then u act like the victim to hide the fact u are the problem arrogant in what way you talk trash and then expect what exactly from us back

They are not part of the dark history of America and they are not weighed down by the psychic baggage. What is my point? America owes African Americans a massive debt of gratitude. It's value is enough to uplift every African American to a place of honour and dignity. Unfortunately, now that it's time to collect on that debt, the solidarity of African American communities has been ruined by social diseases such as Neo-Feminism and Gangsterism. The family and community structures that give weight to a common cause - the shared sense of values - all this is almost non-existent today. On the other hand, the migrants are coming with strong families and communities and creating wealth in America. Soon their voting power will outweigh the African American vote. When that happens the politicians will stop listening and caring. African American celebrities can see this day coming and are throwing you all under the bus for their own personal progress.
Wow that’s some serious lecturing there
Are you serious?
Yes, African or Asian people may not face the same battles with white supremacy within American systems as African Americans do, and in that sense, we are in a unique “Matrix” system.
We Foundational Black Americans (FBA) know we been targeted by white supremacy since the Reconstruction era, but yet we still remain some of the most successful Black people in the world.
We’re a cultural superpower-
Michael Jai White is starting to see this now after gaining exposure to different countries. Not every African American fully grasps this, but the FBA community does, and change is coming.
While Nigerians, for example, are excelling in certain areas, African Americans (FBA) are thriving across many fields. We have more than just celebrities; our influence extends across diverse industries, from space exploration, science to computing etc.
Take Mark E. Dean, an African American inventor and computer engineer, who co-created the IBM personal computer in 1981, developed the ISA bus, and led the design of the one-gigahertz computer processor chip. He holds three of the nine patents behind the original IBM PC. Did you know this?
So many untold stories like this.
From 1900 through the Civil Rights Movement, the world has witnessed the horrific acts committed against African Americans, crimes against humanity including murder, enslavement, torture, and persecution. The International Criminal Court defines these as “widespread or systematic attacks” directed against a people-and in our case, even U.S. law enforcement was complicit.
This is why the Civil Rights Movement began, but as African Americans rise, new obstacles have been placed a new playbook was put in-place for the last 70 years.
1. New designer drugs every decades introduction into our communities,
2. Guns flooding our neighborhoods,
3. Economic sabotage through illegal immigrants and migration into the community, eroding generational wealth.
4. This is happening now once again.
Despite this 70-year playbook against us, we’re still a cultural superpower, and more people are starting to understand this truth.
The FBA community knows what’s happening, and we’re resilient. Change is on the way.

@ wow that’s a lot but I will read it and get back to you
@@Kemet3.0According to the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), a sector of the U.S. Department of Education, 84 percent of Black students lack proficiency in mathematics and 85 percent of Black students lack proficiency in reading skills.According to Forbes, in 2020, only 18% of Black 4th graders scored proficient or above in reading on national tests, compared to 45% of white 4th graders. For 8th graders, the percentages were 15% and 42%, respectively.
@@Bencarson_1 I'm not saying anything new. Neo-Feminism and Gangsterism or a criminal mindset are destroying the fabric of African American families and communities. The leaders aka celebrities - because there are hardly any real leaders - have sold out to the political mainstream or to the forces of exploitation. There's hardly an African American celebrity that doesn't own or front a liquor brand or a fast food franchise. Individually some African Americans have always been and will continue to be exceptional. That's not my issue. I'm talking about the entire demographic.
No my brother the pass is always required without the pass where is your destination
Ecclesiastes 3:15
“That which hath been is now; and that which is to be hath already been; and God requireth that which is past.”
What the enemies has done is destroyed us from our past that the reasons why all the hatred between the same race of people cannot unite
A man don’t know what ahead of him but to plan accordingly the passed is everything it determination my brother please
I'm so tired of our people who go to Africa/Alkebulan. Then say they have lineage to that place but can't name one ancestor... I have been looking for ancestors in Alkebulan and I haven't found one!
Maybe you haven't searched enough😂
Jai White needs to spend more time in Ghana and educate himself on the history of slavery. Also, he is rich and famous, so he can ecpect respectful treatment and be welcomed. Ghanians in general are resentful and prejudiced against black people from the West, especially when they are mixed.
Black Americans majority are indigenous to the land now called America. This isn’t a slight against Africa this is just the reality. Black Americans have been in the Americas since BC times. Black people were in Americas long before slavery.
Not majority. Some. Technically we can only speak for ourselves or our own family
Racist black ppl allowed to have a say
RIGHT ON, WE ARE NOT AFRICANS!
Tell me you've left your couch and traveled to Africa and I will believe your point...if not, you are just ignorantly expressing your feelings!
Yes, that is true... but we all came out of Africa, which is where the human race started.
Genteel, where and who ? are these Africans that are genteel and educated. The ones that I encountered were rude and arrogant, and felt like they were above black American people, and that the United States owed them. Awful people.
Prove it keep letting people tell your story
You dont even need to go Africa to know that .African immigrants are so nice and hard working
Thank you 😍
You didn't go to Uganda?
@@JamesLollis-br9qx his next trip is Uganda
@Bencarson_1 yo Mike, when you come to Uganda, put the pearl on the map look up the wild run tourist and
Uumah logistics. Book the Murchison falls national park tour. You will love it .
@Bencarson_1 has been here for 60 days + I just received my extension for 90 more days.
You've been to Ghana?
@papaqwesi9263 no and I don't desire to because of the political issues, and your money goes further in Uganda
But that comment where he says put a nike T shirt on that person, suggests Ghanians have not been wearing clothes.
@@eastafrika728 😂😂😂
You're wrong Nike is a popular American brand that most Black Americans have made very popular in the USA and around the world and is depiction in what he's saying has a valid merit
@Reign-q7c nope, Nike is all over the world buddy , it's not a Black American brand, it is the white man's brand. There were and are more Afrikans wearing Nike than Black Americans, you want to do a population count comparison with Afrika? No you don't. Did you even know the sweat shops where they make Nike gear are in Vietnam and China?
@eastafrika728 I never said it was a Black American brand I said it was made popular by them they were the forced that save that brand that was falling apart in the 1980's and their turn around came with one name Jordan. Africans wear Americans and Europeans donated old Nike clothes that get sent to them in charity
@@eastafrika728 and another thing I'm not Black American so your little feelings about them I could care less
E-1b1a
Why are you forcing accent
All blacks in America, come back home, be spirited.
They are arrogant when they come to the states.
Who? The Africans?
@Bencarson_1 Yes!!!
"arrogant" is subjective
@WeissmannX They are arrogant and greedy..
Arrogant in what way that is y’all and u try to bully Africans and we won’t let u especially this new generation and then u act like the victim to hide the fact u are the problem arrogant in what way you talk trash and then expect what exactly from us back
Dude you said throw away the past and move on.......then how can you turn around and talk to anybody about connecting to ghana when your family was sold from there five hundred years ago. That was the past and has no bearing on the future as well.
Nah Bruh, I didn’t mean to forget our roots, but should hinge on what our ancestors suffered in America, but reconnect with glorious roots where they were initially treated like royalty! ….i don’t us giving excuses because of the dark chapter of slavey alone!
@@Bencarson_1 glorious roots...they were sold into slavery by africans. How can visiting those slave castles, being charged high as a foreigner, to relive the trauma of ancestors be positive for anybody's psyche? No thank you!
I'm here in America the black Americain they're aren't respect we African they've see us different because we come Africa , I think they've forgot all of the Black's in this world from Africa.
Don't think about, think about studies and what you can do with. Not finish school and become alcoolique

Word of advice... don't take your wife to equatorial guinea
lol
😂 That name cassanova, giving advice for that matter. It takes one to see one.
This might seem random, but I've realised you've got swollen fingers, and that can be caused by a number of health issues. I suggest you see a doctor. 👍
Stay over there!!! Can’t stand this guy!!!
Calm down !!
Is his wife white? And yes thats says a lot.
Depends on what U call education Michael … always remember a lot of our great leaders were mentored by black American wisemen and women
