This documentary really touched my heart 😢. Such amazing people and culture. The music is just heavenly . I love alagi Mbye. The song that opened this documentary brought tears to my eyes. African is beautiful.Edward from Ghana 🇬🇭. 😊
I send my greetings from sudan to all my brothers in Gambia ❤ stay strong

Ibrahim Alkoum,.. Greeting to you too, I have a Sudanese friend me too, his name is Ammar
This song and the view of my country burst me into tears
Where are you now?
Every Afrikan nation must make it a priority to change all the European names of towns, cities, rivers, and waterfalls. We must undertake this psychological exercise in order to prepare ourselves, towards our prospective unification.
Most towns in Gambia are named after pupils name
You say Afrika????🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑
Well said. Its important.
...Or maybe some paved roads. Name them whatever you want.
As an African American I want to move to Africa. Preferably west Africa. I was looking into Nigeria. Yes it’s very popular and a lot of places there remind me of the African American communities. But it’s so crowded. Next I’ve been looking into 🇬🇭 Ghana. I’m really really feeling Ghana. A peaceful country. Very beautiful women and a country whose economy is rising. I just want to be close to my people. Don’t get me wrong I love my people here in the states but to be around a black majority and everything else is the minority will be beautiful. I’m still young and would rather live the rest of my life and be buried In the mother land. My bloodline comes from west Africa. I’m going to do a dna test to see what tribes I come from. My grandma claims we descended from the Ashanti and Mende. And my dad side one of my aunties did a test she came bk Fulani and Yoruba. I was shocked. I think Mende tribe comes from Sierra Leone 🇸🇱. Just letting you guys know I love you all. No matter the past I know who my people are and proud of it.
I love you Gambia my form Bangladesh 🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩
Beautiful and friendly country is Gambia 🇬🇲...I love Gambia...Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪

True
As one of the historians mentioned, slavery continues after 1807 until 1830. However, the British and the American navies were patrolling the seas to arrest illegal slaves traders. When illegal slaves ships 🚢 were arrested by British or American navies instead of taking the slaves back to their native lands like Senegal 🇸🇳 or Gambia 🇬🇲 , slaves were transported to Sierra Leone 🇸🇱 if captured by British or Liberia 🇱🇷 if captured by American. This is one of the reasons the Mandingo or Mandinka tribe is spread out all over West Africa. This is my opinion based on many readings and observations from many documentaries on history on many African countries. I truly enjoyed this documentary and thanks to those who made it possible. Not forget to mention, Sierra Leone was purchased by the British to return free British slaves back to Africa, so as Liberia was purchased by the American to return free American slaves who wanted to return to Africa.
For real
Wooow thank u for this history I didn’t know about 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Great documentary
Love from Kenya
Awesome 😎 God bless Gambians, long live the Gambia ❤️ from 🇰🇪
Very educative...my dream land....soon going to touch the soil of this land.The love and respect i have gotten from the gambian people outside of gambia has made me love gambia before i even get there.God bless the gambia.Strong ,very courageous and super friendly people.Am kenyan in diaspora.

Very interesting documentary. Who is watching this in October 2019 😌😌

Thanks for the documentary..it was very educating. I am a very proud African, a Liberian to be precise, and studying about Gambia adds more to my African identity and knowledge..those Gambian historians were amazing and vey knowledgeable in making us to understand ideal aspects of their country...

I am Ghanaian I also love Africa and our history. We are a beautiful people
حلو كثير🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
I am originate from the bottom of Africa, the South Africa, and I am still here today 45 yrs since my birth. I am proudly African and can also speak other African languages like Chichewa of Malawi, Shona of Zimbabwe and bit of Igbo of Nigerian. I am dark skinned and I have a natural African rhythm on my feet. When my clan name is called and praised, I rise like like an African giant I am and the warrior on me becomes bolder than a lion.
i love my contry gambia🇬🇲🇬🇲🇬🇲🇬🇲
I hope to see a prosperous Africa in my lifetime
the music those guys played was amazing and ancient
I had the pleasure of attending the ROOTS festival last year. It changed my life!
I love Africa full of nature and full of life lovely people hope one day I will visit these countries
Rithesh Shetty you're highly welcome to The Gambia the smiling coast of Africa.
and live there for 20 years!!!!!!
You are welcom

Where you from?
So beautiful....music is sooo good and am proud to be African
Hi
where are u from?where are u from?
I always tell my fellow Afrikans that to be born Afrikan is the best thing that ever happened to me. Yes, the music is too good because the Afrikan does everything best.
@@ghanaianfoundingfathersdau80 Then why do so many Africans seek to leave Africa and flee to The West ? "African does everything best " is nonsensical, it hardly warrents a response.
Hi Nice love Jus Tice tanks Family Love Gambia ❤️✌️😀
Africa we love u all fram india
I pray so
``why you stop uploading? your documentaries are one of the best in the world. Continue uploading. love to hear back.

Interesting documentary I’m a Gambian living in Spain 🇪🇸 I came across this video and I can give great recommendations for places to visit in The Gambia 🇬🇲 it’s awesome and nice people
So proud of my Gambian brothers and sisters. Very strong happy humble and generous. Am blessed to have found the Gambia 25 years ago and greatful that I can stay for months and travel with the cultural group Freedom International Kanbeng Kaffo with their wonderful masquerades and musical skills stay blessed family.😍
Africa so pure and beautiful, must move around the continent, the river is as big as the Nile...feeling proud
I live in America and love the continent. Just a more spiritual and holistic way of life rather than an American society.
They scattered our people even today they will call you a refugee on their soil.😭evil act 😭evil act 😭😭😭😭
They are living on our wealth and treasures.
F*ck -white privilege-
AnonyMUSE what the hell ??🤨🤨
How can you start judging me when you know nothing about me ??
I hate racism and I’m never racist. When I was in Africa no one talks about slavery or racism , I knew nothing about it and there were no books to teach us either. When I went to Spain, I have been discriminated for my colour and I felt horrible. Even when I went there I still haven’t learnt about slavery and what was done to my people. However when I came here to England, I started learning about slavery. I read books and understood every single thing that have happened. Even here I still get those racist comments, but now I know how to deal with them.
And you have no right to say that I’m acting victim by cursing white privilege.
It have been my oath since I found out
about slavery to do anything in my power to fight for justice, for all those innocent people that have been forced to leave their country. I know slavery is still going on, and I want to stop it.
I’m a girl, and at the moment I have no power to do anything at all to help. I’m only fifteen, I can’t sign petition coz I have no bank account, nor can I travel on my own. I’m glad that you are doing all this to fight for justice, and one day I want to do the same.
When I’m *CAPABLE*
So please do not accuse me of being someone I’m not, and will never be in a million years.
*I LOVE MY SKIN COLOUR, AND I’M PROUD TO BE ME*
✊🏾✊🏾💔💔😞
Diane Catts please seriously 😐
Just because I wrote that comment you too are calling me RACIST ? Everyone grows up at their own speed, and I’m following the right path. I’m not misguided by anything or anyone. I’m well aware that black people sold their own people, but I’m also aware that there are people out there that use their privilege as a power to maltreat others and take advantage. I do not hate white people,nearly all my friends are white xd 😂.
And as for my first comment, when you read it interprete it however you like. You will never understand my perspective on white privilege. You all think that I’m racist, wow best joke ever 😒
Love this country
Love u xx
I Love my country the Gambia ❤❤❤❤👏
Hi there im trying to find my roots and find what tribe i belon too in the gambia. do you know what tribe has the last name bass?

Beautiful songs of África with great significants !. We really loved this so much. Africans must come back to their routes!.
As a person, born on a Caribbean island and whose ancestors were captured from Africa and enslaved on this very island, I watch this documentary with rather mixed feelings.
We had othing to do with the evils of the pass, but do not repeat.
Janet Cousins yep... at least is not hating... I'm not putting all at the same box.. but... People from Antillas seems they hate or at least don't appreciate Africans.... i saw in France...
+acajudi100 u sure about that. well your fore parent did

Came across this because wanted to know more about The Gambia seeing that the AU is sitting this April. Also it was inspired by the "now termed Afrophobia" attacks happening in South Africa that have left the rest of Africa in shocked and pleading for South African to stop attacking other africans that have seeked refuge and started new lives. # No to Afrophobia

beautiful place with beautiful people and i enjoyed the video
I just visited for the first time last week from the USA . It was a beautiful experience the people were so warm and welcoming I can’t wait to go back
Your welcome back in the Gambia
Thank you bless all of you amen
The words have not yet been invented to describe the obvious beauty of the place, the people, the music and the culture.
And, presumably like many other music-makers watching this, I kept thinking to myself, "I want a kora!"
Every time I see a video like this my soul aches. taking away those people from their land and families by force.
History is the best teacher
alagie gibba not all teachers tell the true history
Cruelty! Must have left a lot of devastated families behind 😰
I agree with you MICKEY.
The French and English fighting over someone else's land
people conquer land its what we do , all races
governments seperate themself from civilians and do the dirty deed, so were still civilized
