Jemima Pierre explains how the global dynamics of race distort our understanding of ourselves and each other as black people worldwide.

    32:50 How religion, language and neo-colonialism mislead the black world about Haiti
    37:55 The role of the West in constructing African ethnicity
    43:16 Ethnicity is a form of racialization
    57:23 The inferior place of Africa in the world order
    1:00:11 De-ethnization, deracialization and decolonization

    I’m very proud of my Haitian fellow Jemima Pierre cuz she did an outstanding job educating the world TH-cam audience about Haiti’s impact on freedom and slavery. I really hope that everyone especially black/African Americans get to see this video. Cuz they will appreciate us better and more love to visit our side than the other side of Hispaniola.

      It's okay to sell Haiti into slavery as long as the PRICE IS RIGHT?
      HOW CAN anyone travel to Haiti while the country is under these dire conditions?
      Unless they go through Royal Caribbean...a satanic jəw CEO bought out Labadee for 100 years contract. That was the stupidest thing any govern could do.
      Haiti would have generated more money if all the cruise ships were allowed to visit Labadee on a daily basis.

    All Kenyan administrations since their so called independence are extremely obtuse, extremely colonial and have always been linked with the worst atrocities on the African continent from apartheid in South Africa to their meddling in Somali affairs. Thank you Ms Pierre and Wandia for this eye opening discussion. Kenyans should be liking this video in masses

    • @Yoruba4U
      @Yoruba4U 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      It is not just Kenyan administrators. That is the legacy of colonial mentality throughout the Afrikan continent. The purpose of the colonialist is to divide-and-rule.
      Until Afrikans go back to their roots and have their intellectuals write their own books fir their educational systems. The scientist should develop their own vaccines. Their engineers should build their own roads & infrastructures. The people who colonised you can not be a part of the solution. Afrikans are the cradle of humanity, knowing yourself can help to free your mind & create your own institutions. Stop running to the West when called. Let them come to you. If they have to travel to four or five economic union or 54 countries, then so be it.

    Every african needs to listen to this long intellectual shaping from Jemima. Top notch

    • @botoayo3590
      @botoayo3590 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      Brilliant and totally agree that EVERY AFRICAN needs to listen to this long INTELLECTUAL shaping. I share the same opinion. Our African Haitian sister has touched on global African history that affects every living BLACK person on EARTH. Using Haiti as an example and connecting it to the African continent as SHARED experience, making it very clear that White Supremacy affects those enslaved in the Americas as well of those on the African continent, and most so those on the continent where FROZEN ethniticy is used to infiltrate and perpetuate White Supremacy in equal manner as RACIALISED ONE DROP blood identity was used to create BLACK identity in America. The African is NEW to this form of White incursion into his her society, but will suffer equally and probably more so than the Black American who has woken in many instances to the nature of the beast. But here is where I have a problem with the brilliant sister whom I am very thankful for her enlightening thoughts and ideas. With all due respect, I think she speaks too rapidly. She must consider her audience on several fronts. One can safely stare that almost all Africans on the continent do not speak English as a first language, or as their mother tongue. Secondly, her very highly informative discussion contains many concepts and academic terminologies that beg for definition, simplification and brief explanation. We see the host is herself very alert but also struggling to keep up while constantly asking sis Dr Jemina to repeat, simplify, clarify explain. I think our sister speaks with the impression of a group of university students in mind, not realising that this is so isl media with knowledge aimed at a world audience of mainly racialised and ethnicized African people who need to understand this to escape external white supremacy as well as internal black ethnic supremacy that perpetuates white supremacy. The major problem facing Africans in their liberation struggles at all times, is that most of our intellectuals speak at a level that only the colonial and imperial educated elite classes understand. Which therefore, at the end of the day, means that NOTHING has been said to enlighten the masses. This is something Brazilian Educator Paulo Freire wrote about in * Pedagogy of the Oppressed.* This is why it is easier for BBC CNN Al-Jazeera and other news outlets can reach the masses with their simple language distortions. Our intellectuals must ALSO be able to connect to the MASSES by means of a language they understand. This is why most liberation movements in Kenya, Mozambique, Angola, South Africa, Zimbabwe etc say that it was not the speeches nor the writings of the intellectuals that motivated them to continue fighting during the bleakest of moments, but the simple texts and simple lyrics of Bob Marley and Peter Tosh that inspired them to keep on fighting. Conscious Reggae music with simple thoughts and expressions played a greater role in the physical and mental liberation of Africa and Africans everywhere than the complicated philosophical concepts and terminologies of our intellectuals whom only other intellectuals understand. It is certain that white scholars and white intellectuals and white supremacy understand what our dear beloved sister is saying so informatively, but so rapidly, than the black masses. Marcus Garvey 's writing's and speeches were able to influence the Kenyan and * Mau Mau* independence and liberation movements as well as inspire the black masses all over the world because he was aware, CONSCIOUS, if the fact that he was reaching out to Africans everywhere and he had to speak a language they understood.
      I read through comments to learn, and I think that the level of information contained in this discussion should have generated millions of views and comments.
      I thank Dr.Jemima and the host for this exchange, but our ideas must be removed from the academic classrooms to the masses who are the real intended recipients....One if our very few * intellectuals* who was so impactful and was able to be loved by and to reach the hearts and minds of the people was brother Malcolm X. His speeches were simple, but they did contain some powerful ideas and profound philosophical thoughts that were easily practical, while explaining complicated political, economic, social, historical and racial issues in a simple way that people could have learned and also even improve their vocabulary....

    • @botoayo3590
      @botoayo3590 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Also I would have liked that while our beloved sister spoke of the coloureds in Haiti and of Napoleon, that white it was necessary and correct to speak of * The Haitians* in general, that she had touched on Toussaint, Dessalines and Christophe. These men wrote and spoke so that the masses understood. Among many other factors, the history books record that this skill to communicate was vital for the success of the Haitian revolution. For all liberation movements, spiritually, mentally, psychologically, physically, the leaders, the revolutionaries, the intellectuals have to speak a language the people understand. This is what all the Prophets have done: Deliver the Message in a language the people understand so that they cannot say they did not know...and as Marley put it so simply...then whose gonna stay at home when the freedom fighters are fighting....

    • @airmat9
      @airmat9 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I share the same opinions too beloved.
      I would just respond that perhaps the sister’s pace of speech is a problem in person but TH-cam has a playback speed function.
      Dr Pierre has a lot to share and I’m glad to have heard her penetrating analysis of this ongoing Maafa.
      Have not Africans on the continent been battling colonisation from the earliest appearance of the Europeans/Whites? What NEW form do you see taking place today? What I see are different manifestations of the underlying structure of the power relation of dominance - white over non-white by every means possible while claiming democracy and égalité.
      We are all at different levels of understanding this global system of white terrorism. Some of us are in the academy, some of us in grassroots organisations, and some of us are just waking up alone after taking the Red Pill.
      We all need to function as translators - taking the intellectual speak, the discourse, the discussion the reasoning and grounding from high to low and back, from English to indigenous African languages and back to other European languages.
      The European masses are easily swayed with simple untruths and distortions, but educating and informing requires more effort. Marley and Tosh galvanised the soldiers but Garvey, Biko, CLR James and Rodney roundly and pointedly articulated the project of liberation from mental, physical and economic slavery.
      Music can quickly stir the emotions, even if we don’t comprehend the lyrics. Maisha expands on this in one of her videos from 20:45.
      th-cam.com/video/IjkcwWs_MRA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ZFznF-fHaNRLMyEx
      It takes time to turn a big ship. We have social media now yes, but this means we have hundreds and thousands of medium sized boats on the water more interested in the pursuit of pleasure, happiness and entertainment. This is why a video like this wouldn’t generate millions of views and comments.
      Agreed this is the challenge - how to make complicated spiritual, philosophical, intellectual concepts and terminologies inspiring, impactful, practical and above all of interest to the African masses?

    During the US occupation (1915-1934), Woodrow "Wilson also wanted to rewrite [which actualized] the Haitian constitution, which banned foreign ownership of land, to replace it with one that guaranteed American financial control." It's similar to corporate imposition allowed by "Structural Adjustments" and ISDS stipulations embedded in IMF/World Bank loans.

    Ms Pierre, you are spot on. I had never heard anyone speak with mastery about our African history.
    King Leopold didn’t just kill the Congolese, he and his government started the first genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda at the hand of the first 20:50 imported president of Rwanda from Congo. He rebaptised Congo Leopoldville. He wanted to annex Rwanda and Burundi to Congo. The King of Rwanda and the Prince of Burundi who was delegated by the King and his administration to negotiate the independence of the three Protectorates.
    King Leopold tried to trick them by only according independence separately. They refused and the three declared the independence of Rwanda, Burundi and helped Patrice Lumumba to declare Independence.
    However, in Rwanda Belgium has already set up the stage for genocide in Rwanda starting in 1959.
    In Burundi, the King, his administration and the Hero of Independence, Prince Louis Rwagasore organized a multiparty election, yes, in the 60’s. His party won. One Belgian colonial Administer killed himself because he failed to institute a Hutu government in Burundi so they can kill the Tutsis.
    The eve of Burundi Independence, the Belgians and the Greek merchants killed Prince Louis Rwagasore, the Hero of Burundian Independence was murdered on October 13th 1961. There has never been a trial for the murderers who are known by Belgium.
    There has never been a trial for the murderers of Patrice Lumumba either.
    When will Africa wake up and shake off the colonial mentality which still gives advantage to the white people against our own race?

    As Ayitien, I have never expected to hear the truth so perfectly told by an intellectual particularly from an Ayitien-American. As also a Christian, I agree that most of us are black skin but with brain. That's why all the suposed black countries (Africa) including the African continent, are ruled by and for the supremacists, but with black's faces. That the until formala that I call :"The correction potions", like the liquid for correction, to write out an error. This formula is what they call the decolonization.

    Excellent discussion. For me - African people saying that they didn't know they are black until coming to western countries is comparable to some white people saying they don't even see colour. I've been to the beautiful country of Kenya. It is impossible to not know you are Black with so many Europeans there. I had one white person there tell me that the Masai people are related to Europeans. Same old divide and conquer. I appreciate my Haitian Sister addressing the assumptions of Africans. I don't think many realize how much they have been brainwashed. When I was in Ghana, I could not find one book about African history. No one knew where I could buy one. That was an eye opener for me. Thank you again for a very informative discussion.

    Amen to the truth of race and blackness in Africa. I lived through it in Kenya and in Uganda at a lesser level. In Kenya you are eft standing in a restaurant waiting to be seated while your waiter goes out to open the door for the whites and the Indians.
    In Uganda in institutions like the Banks, white people don’t need to wait on line.Once I was on the line, a long line. A white man enters the bank and immediately goes to the front and stands. I looked around and nobody seemed bothered. I was bothered. What gave him the audacity to just jump ahead everyone while he wouldn’t have done so in America. I stepped out of my lane and taped on his shoulder. I reminded him that we were lined up before he got in.
    He looked me and I looked up and locked eyes with him while pointing to the back of the line. Everyone is waiting to see what next. He moved back of line.
    We have to stand for what is rightfully our rights

      I had the same experience at the Barclays Bank in Entebbe, Uganda back in 2014/15. An individual of East Indian extraction thought nothing of walking past a line of 20+ people standing in line waiting to enter the bank. I immediately stepped out and ordered him to get to the back of the line. The Ugandans were looking in shock while the East Indian walked to the back of the line. While walking past me he asked: “you’re Nigerian?” And I answered in the affirmative.

    Moorish history goes before and beyond Spain
    Investigating beyond any Euro. writings is absolutely necessary; to delve into the hidden stories of the Moors
    Asking families whose Grandparents told of family secrets (under the threat of murder for divulging those secrets)
