Am zambian 🇿🇲 I admire what Ghana 🇬🇭 started opening the doors for our brothers and sisters from the diaspora those who want to come home it's lovely
I'm old school black American and most folks from Ghana have always been open arms and they understand the history of what black Americans went thru in the 60s..much respect to them
@@LOGICAL-JAY much respect to you from a Ghanaian sister 1love
Ghana sold over half the slaves to the europeans along with gold
I visited Ghana for the first time in December love this place reminds me of Jamaica....... Ghana is Jamaica Jamaica is Ghana
Straight man🤞
Not really
Same thing I said
NO.
I'm a Jamaican and had a rastaman friend back then who used to tell me how much I looked like the Ghanaian and after migrating I worked with this Ghanaian girl who looks similar to me
Nice!👍🏽 Probably you are. We will definitely be happy to welcome you home❤️
Godislove you are our own
Come home for visit okay
You should visit to be fair the people are so nice there
Am a Ghanaian and one Jamaican man tell me l look like Jamaican girl too l always felt that in me we love you brothers and sisters 🥰❤️
No wonder the huge Jamaican Community in Ghana.
Jamaicans in Ghana are soo peaceful that people don't know they even exist.
Rita Marley's home is just 400 meters from my grandparents house in Ghana.
What I've learn from my family in Jamaica, I am of Ghanaian decent. The connection is something else I tell you.
There are two types of black people in Africa. One is Africans and the other Arabs. We can break it down farther, one is Jacob and the other Esau. One more step, Israelites and Edomiites. One more, Negroes and Fulanis. Negroes are original and Fulanis are invaders. maroons, moors and black Caribs are one.
I knew it 🥰
You always welcome home fam
You ever welcome to home dear

The Take is "Gye" not " Gy"...I hope this helps.
@@frimpongmaahannah9638 wouldnt 'gye' be better understood as 'collect' or 'receive'.
Correct me if i am.wrong but i would suggest the following:
The root of 'sika' is from gold.
Bɛra (come) but sounds like bra, the reason to add this distinction is because you can also say bɛ to mean 'come'
Di - eat, didi is for emphasis.
Medase - i thank you. There is a plural form.
@@kwawkwansah2452 Collect, receive and take are all " Gye " in Twi...
Thankyou for sharing. Interesting. As our patois comes from part of this language in jamaica
The ties between Jamaica and Ghana are now well understood. Very insightful 👏 Awesome interview! Looking forward to more, Sindaco.
Thanks for watching. Kindly share for others to see
@@cookingwithsindaco this should be shown on National tv in Ghana
@@lilacer6841 💯👍😎
They also have many Nigerian ancestry as well
There should be more documentaries like this. I find that Jamaica has become so whitewashed, Americanised, chineyfied (okay... there's no such word as chineyfied) but you all know what I am saying. That unique history of our roots has dissipated to almost nothing and sometimes people don't want to know that we did not originate on the Island. I was in Black River recently and there was a heated discussion about how the Maroons betrayed the other Jamaican's. I kindly let him know I am proud of my father and the rest of my Maroon paternal family. We a warrior! I am taking my first trip to Ghana in December and I am so looking forward to exploring. Until we at least acknowledge who we are we will remain a displaced nation, to be manipulated to remain in servitude and enslaved. As much as I love the beautifully scenic Jamaica, I know that we do not own not one piece of the dirt. I advocate for us to decolonise our own minds that has been pounded with Eurocentrism. One love to all.
I've never been to Jamaica but I love them . Simplicity at it best good job sindaco orekodo
Thanks for watching
We love you too, cousin.
Love from Ghana 🇬🇭 we love our blood and miss you
We honor our ancestors by remembering who we are.
🇯🇲
I knew it because Ghana 🇬🇭 and Jamaica 🇯🇲 are similar how they talk and or that we love you guys 🥰❤️
“Kromanti” is the language some of the maroons speak. It’s so interesting, as an Akan, to hear them speak; you can definitely hear this similarities to Twi. I remember hearing a maroon saying “I give thanks and praise to our God Nyankinpon”. Nyankinpon aka Nyakupon in Twi. It’s so interesting. Thanks for sharing ✨
Kromanti is a town in Central region, and Central region is where the slave castle was built. And the people in Central region speaks fante which is part of the akan language
@@cookingwithsindaco I wasn’t clear in my original comment. I know, I’m quarter Fante. I’m saying the maroons call the language they speak “Kromanti”.
@@xajae_ama ooh they call it by that name wow
@@xajae_ama There are Kromanti in Suriname also
@@fitawrarifitness6842 That is interesting. I’m not surprised though considering Suriname is a Dutch colony as was Ghana at some point. I’m aware a lot of our brothers and sisters ended up in Suriname. Thanks for sharing ✨
It never crossed my mind that when the Jamaican says " mi asay" it's the same as "me se" in Akan!! Both means I say or I'm saying.
Yesssssssssss
Ehh😂
Jamaicans also say "mi seh" (I said) . "mi a seh" means I am saying
I've visited Ghana frequently as a 'white' male on business. The Ghanaian are very smart and very proud and strong. They do not take any nonsense. I can easily see how the Maroons are of Ghanaian ancestry. Lots of Respect for the Rastafari 🦁💪🏿
Am a Ghanaian according to the ashanti history the actual name of queen nani of maroons is nana akosua she happened to be a strong queen mother of one of the ashanti village during the the war she flee to ivory coast that's where she was captured and sold to the slave masters so queen nana akosua was a strong ashanti woman(queen nani)
@@MEDIA.AFRICA Queen Nanny was a Kromanti by birth. That is, she hails from that small fishing village on the Mankessim -Cape-Coast road.
That area from Edumafar, Asaafar, Kromantsi,Abandzi all the way to Anomabo and Moree are where the Maroons originated from.
Sir Francis Drake thought highly about the Maroons who he claimed "were skilled/skillful Fisherfolks / Hunters and Farmers and Warriors who knew so much about the seas that some Kromantis navigated alongside him and were from some communities in Western shores of Africa" .
Closer research points to the people on the shores of Ghana. The Akan dialect spoken by the Maroons of Jamaica,Surinam,Panama and the language of the Garifuna of Belize,Nicaragua,Honduras and places like Guatemala are more intelligible to the people of the coastal areas of present day Ghana.
Do some serious research please.
You white people you will pay for what you did to us the same way
They did take nonsense from racist white slave masters THEN
Stop calling Ashanti Maroons it's disrespectful
Nanny stands for Nana. Her brothers were called Cudjoe and Quao (Fante names).
Accompong is Akropong meaning ‘ first town’ common name for villages in Ghana. Maroons eat Dokonu (Kenkey), chew Bese (cola nut) and raise Sensen fowl ( Akokor Asensen in Ghana). They also blow the aben ( bull horns) like we do in Ghana and they call God Nyankipong, Akan word for God- Nyankopong.
Akompong is Assin name which means a great warrior. It's not the same as Akropong. Akropong literary means a big town but it's sometimes referred to a capital town.
It’s amazing,growing up in the country side, we had those chicken with the turned feathers , but I heard my elders called them sense fowl, so you said sensen , I know exactly what you are talking about
Accompong is Acheampong. Nanny was Queen Nana Yaa captured in Battle of Kortmantse. ( Cormantin). The Asantes were beaten by the British Fante alliance and sent to the West Indies.
@@Kya1942 Sorry, Accompong is different from Acheampong. They have different meanings. The name Accompong is usually found in the Assin area while the name Acheampong is usually found in the Ashanti area.
1. Accompong means a Great Warrior
2. Acheampong means a Great Spokesperson
@@oseitututawiah2109you are right about the names but the captured Asantes were the ones sent to Jamaica. The British recorded their names because of their notoriety. I got my answers years ago from a British historian whose writings about Asantes were publicised online. They started referring to them as the Kromantines. What even got me into this research was a Jamaican dude i knew. He would call me man Friday when we played football in college. We ended up bonding and a week after, on a business trip he told me about his family being Kromatines, and that they know their roots are from Ghana . This sparked my research. My Asantes folks were badly defeated by the Fante and British then hauled off never to be seen again.
Being of the Garvey lineage I am proud to gain everlasting knowledge of our culture. Yes my mother is a Garvey.
My grandma was a moron and i love Africans my husband is African currently pregnant so I'm so proud to bring Africa back to my family also a lot of Africans say i look Ghanian plus I'm Jamaican and Bajan.
Wow
Your grandma was a moron or a Maroon? Just to clarify.
@@teekolinski491 it's a typo maroon
@@hamiltonbryanna you can actually edit your original comment using the elipsis and edit option 😋
Visit Gh 🇬🇭 sooner
I was reading the "Hebrewisms of west africa" a book by Joseph J Williams. The book literally talks about how The Akans of Ghana influenced Jamaican culture and its a beautiful truth
influence? they are the same people.
This gave me goosebumps
First thing i noticed wo bo amaneɛ, an element of our culture retained
The Maroons for most of their time in Jamaica have been free men and boy did they cause havoc towards the slavers.
I dont think it is coincidence that those who held on to their African identity were the ones who resisted slavery the most. This is true all over the Caribbean.
I also hear the Maroon community has not had a murder for around 150 years.
Finally, the Maroons believe they are a state within a state based on the treaties they signed, however the Jamaican government is trying to appropriate their forested land as it has massive bauxite reserves.
I salute the Maroons, i am in awe of their wisdom
RasSolomon we hope to see you in Ghana soon.
I'm preparing another video about the Maroon town it self
@@cookingwithsindaco Thanks we are looking forward to it.
Ɔrɛkɔdo
@@cookingwithsindaco there are more than one areas in Jamaica where the Maroons settle. Acompong you must see.
@@cookingwithsindaco You should visit Acompong Town in St Elizabeth.
So true. Ras Solomon asking him (the guest) to state his mission/business and what he already knows & has heard before he, Ras Solomon (the host) speaks is just like what our elders do here. "Wo bo wo amane3" (state your business) like my fellow Ghanaian said.
Next time you visit Jamaica , visit more of our communities. There are 2 sets of Maroons : Leeward & Windward 💖👍
More Continental Africans need to take the initiative to learn like this gentleman
Awesome 👏🏾. It was worth saving to watch at a convenient time. Good job and we’re waiting for some more videos of this trip✌🏽
In Ghana we have nsusuaba, Jamaicans also call it susuaba. The also have the ananse character stories just like Ghana. 😅
I love it with salt mackerel.

I’ve really enjoyed this conversation brada.
this is soo deep. there are more down and I’m glad he did not deny to be part of the Ghanaian group and even waiting to come to Ghana.
you always welcome to Ghana Ras Solomon.
continue the good work and bring us more of these to understand some history words brada.
God bless you and guide.

Wow,bro Ras Solomon is full of wisdom.
He needs to visit Ghana, it'll be nice if we can set a go fund me account to fund a trip or pilgrimage to Ghana.
Bless up 😃 🙏
fr that would be dope! most rastas talk of repatriation but will never see that as A reality…
@@kingrastatv802 there are some jamaican returnees in my home town in Adukrom.. They call their place in the hills, Jamaican village. Nice people
Yes bless up mi Uncle Ras Soloman 🥰 Duppys Daughter
I love how the Jamaican Rasta man includes the Caribbean and Brazil and he probably would've broaden the list if the time wasn't so short, but he recognized it's something that didn't just happen to one country through out the carribean but all country's of the carribean and thats the beautiful spirit of Marcus Garvey. Garvey built schools through out the carribean and tried his best to keep us together but alot of evil forces tried to sabotage that relationship and made it look as if we aren't actually one people (Israel) under the creator of every sustainable and unsustainable living thing under the heavens, may the Almighty grant Marcus Garvey a place in the heavens🙏
In Ghana we have nsusuaba (tiny bitter berries used for soup) Jamaicans also call it susuaba. The also have the ananse character stories just like Ghana. 😅

The ananse stories are all over the English speaking Caribbean islands
@@aarahsamuel6980 . Woow! That’s quite refreshing to know. We still have a lot of things that connect us. May God bless the souls of our ancestors who were taken to the diaspora for holding on to our history.
@Dona May
The British are excellent at keeping records. A few years ago a friend of mine he and I tried to obtain records held on slaves in the twin Caribbean Island of Antigua & Barbuda we contact the British library in the UK but was unable to get the information we wanted infact we were met with so many barriers. One day I'll try again
We call it susumba

Patwa sounds so much like how you speak!
Insightful and informative. Thanks ❤.
Welcome to my home country of Jamaica 🇯🇲.
Nothing but love for your guys.
With all the access to information, people don't realize the connection between Ghanaian and Jamaican. Our people took our food in Jamaica e.g ackee fruit. I had the privilege to make a lot of friends from 🇯🇲, when I lived in Brooklyn, NY and we had a lot in common. Sindaco, well done! Contact me, love to discuss these history.
Exactly bro ❤️
Those fruit trees were always there. Jamaica and the other Caribbean Islands have pretty much the same season(s)/climate as the African Continent and so does some of South America. Why do people believe that certain things only comes from Africa courtesy of the Caucasian enslavers.
THE CREATOR BLESS
❤
Live in Brooklyn now & my moms side of family are all professors so I grew up being taught Caribbean history. Most of the islands share many cultural similarities with West Africans. I could go on forever. ❤
Excellent video, as a Jamaican currently living in England I have learned a lot about our history from you both. Stay blessed and keep educating tha masse's. 💯💪🤟🇯🇲
Thanks for watching, and glad you have enjoyed it. Kindly share and subscribe
I feel nice just watching this, mindset switch. Thank you

Wow, bro this is so amazing, where have I been all this while. Great work bro.keep it up.
Thanks for the visit 🔥✔️❤️
Wow! Awesome video! Thanks for sharing this story! It is good to know ❤
Similar story in Suriname except that the Surinamese Maroons have kept the language after 400 years. Sindaco go to the villages of Suriname and learn about your other family who were at war with the Dutch and escaped from slavery over 400 years ago and maintained the culture! To the Rasta brother, all of the prophets were Muslim which only means submitting to one God. The black man's God is Allah which means the most high. Islam as it is practiced today reached Africa (Ethiopia in early the 7th Century) and the king that accepted the Muslims freeing from persecution in Makkah also became Muslim. The first Mosque in Africa is in Ethiopia and the religion spread from East Africa to West Africa and Mansa Musa (Mali Kingdom) was the richest man to have ever lived and he was a Muslim and even sent expeditions to the west and ended up some say in the americas and caribbean. Nigeria has 78,000,000 (78 million muslims). Mali, Senegal and Gambia is around 99% Muslim. The Rasta was right in that we came from different parts of Africa so look to where we came from and see the population today and the religion that they are practicing. Islam was there and christianity came after and as the Africans say they brought the bible with them and when we raised our heads from praying they had the land and we had the bible. We have been divided for too long and I hope that the diaspora begin to realize that we didn't ask to come to the west we were forced, no visa, no passport, took our name, religion, erased our culture and God. Africa is home! Love you all and unity is strength! th-cam.com/video/A-3Z1KbYUj4/w-d-xo.html and part 2 in Suriname th-cam.com/video/Kv_T30rqo0Y/w-d-xo.html Fu sab pe yu go sab pe yu komopa. When you know where you are from, you know where you are going!
Master stop commenting what you know nothing about 🤣🤣
The Muslims have kill millions Africans in the name of Mohammed and Islam jusr like the European in the name of their white God Jezus and with the bible in their hands.
We were given a perception that African was poor, is since 2023 I know that African were rich and we have a God he is the I am that I am, and is since 2022 I come to realize that I am from the Maroon tribe been Pryce,
Blessed love welcome to JAMAICA💯🌟🔯🌟💯

Several occasions , I’ve had person tell me i look like I’m Ghanaian or I have a look alike . Grew up in the blue mountains in St Thomas however there’s not much that I’ve learnt about my African ancestry .
The maroons in Jamaica should try and link up with their relatives in Moree and Koromantse in the Central Region of Ghana .
The Maroons should do ancestral DNA tests, if they want to. I am Maroon descent linked with Accompong Town. My ancestral DNA results show 69% Nigerian, 23% Sierra Leonean, 6% Kenyan. Many other African countries show up, including Ghana. Totaling over 92% African and less than 8% European, South American (Taino origin) and Asian, combined. Many tribes were mixed together, ran away into the hills along with the Tainos and interbred.
The maroons are not native of koronmanti. They were shipped from a castle in koronmanti. However, they were Alan’s captured from the inner land during one of the fanti Ashanti war. The captive were send to koronmanti fort and shipped to their current location. Read more on the maroons history and the flag of Jamaica. Same colour with the akans in the inter lands.
@@kessiesamuelobeng3947 I am Maroon descent and my ancestral DNA test results shows many African countries connection, with the dominants being Nigeria, Sierra Leone and Kenya. In lesser percentage Ghana bloodline and the Indigenous Taino are also present, in my blood, along with European and Asian countries. Maroons are run away Africans and Tainos. They lived in the hills and interbred. Interbreeding with Europeans went on, on the estates. Jamaica's motto states, "Out of many, one people" and is absolutely 100% correct. DNA tests shows and confirms the origins of all the people who have produced children, in Jamaica. Blood cannot lie and our ancestors' blood speaks through our veins.
@@ruthjohnson9025 yea but before colonialism there was nothing like Ghana,Nigeria,Benin or Ivory Coast…it was borderless therefore DNA ancestry is false
I litreally just found out that my family heritage( my great grandmother & Grandmother was born and raised in Jamacia) goes back to a lady called Laura who was Ghanaian and Muslim. This is so intresting I wonder if we're part of the Maroons too?
Yow,we are all Africans, they bring us to Jamaica an turning us into part of their brand Jamaica, but I an I is nothing but a proud African
Great conversation and Big UPS on Mending that CONNECTION....WHOLE LOVE Family...
Thank you sir
I'm very glad to come across this Chunnel one thing I want you to know is that you are Hebrew descendants as well as all Ghanians.
Very lovely interesting story bro try an give as more education by this country l just love them ruff ruff!!
There are also the (Red Ibos, Igbos) of Jamaica whom are from the Igbo ethnic group in Nigeria who still kept some of their Igbo Language till date.
Most Nigerian and Ghanaian slaves went from Caribbean Jamaica.
Yes Nigerians are in Jamaica too just a smaller percentage

Love, Honor and Respect to Sindaco. Indeed, this is great interview learning about the Slave Trade, Ghana, Jamaica, and the Maroons. Africa is the biggest continent on the planet and they even lied about that. Therefore, I am extremely grateful when I hear my own Black People tell us about our history and what our ancestors have done for the Black Race.
Well done big 🦈💯💯
As a jamaica we need more of this
Thank for watching and loving it 😍 kindly share
Interesting interview. RAS SOLOMON gave a good interview but from listening very well to him about his knowledge of how he was 1st taken from Ghana via "The place of no return" and his knowledge of his people captivity to the Muslims, Spanish, and English. He questioned the Black people religion and of them not having any proper religion of their own not identifying with the Muslim or Christian religion where the black slaved were given the Bible by the British on one hand whilst they held the gun in their other hand. He also talked about the Jews capitalising from the richness of Africa . What was interesting for me is that this man did not know that he comes from the tribe of Judah as an Israelite and went into captivity in the 1st place because he and the people from Judah had abondoned their covenant with Yehweh and went into idolatry worshipping of many gods in the land of Ham (Africa). Many black people were taken from the Goal Coast of Ghana (on (JUDA on old map of Ghana) but were originally Israelites living in the land. . God warned Israel in Deuteonomy 28 what would happen to them if they broke covenant agreement with him. Please read. I see this bro as i do many from Jamaica and other Caribbean Islands as lost sheep without a shepherd. Many have lost sight of their real name, their language and most importantly their true God. Isaiah 1:1-9 concerning Judah " “I reared children and brought them up, but they have rebelled against me.The ox knows its master, the donkey its owner’s manger, but Israel does not know me. My people do not understand.” Woe to the sinful nation, a people whose guilt is great, a brood of evildoers, children given to corruption! They have forsaken the LORD; they have spurned the Holy One of Israel and turned their backs on him.Why should you be beaten anymore? Why do you persist in rebellion? Your whole head is injured, your whole heart afflicted. From the sole of your foot to the top of your head there is no soundness- only wounds and welts and open sores, not cleansed or bandaged or soothed with olive oil.Your country is desolate, your cities burned with fire; your fields are being stripped by foreigners right before you, laid waste as when overthrown by strangers.Daughter Zion is left like a shelter in a vineyard, like a hut in a cucumber field, like a city under siege.Unless the LORD Almighty had left us some survivors, we would have become like Sodom, we would have been like Gomorrah.
God indeed has not called the black hebrew people who ended up in slavery to follow the Muslim religion, the Christian religion, or the African religion which includes ancestral worship (where they are guided by their dead ancestors rather than by the word of God and his holy spirit) libation, and many other practices which is contrary to God's instructions to Israel. The white Jews in Israel and other parts of the world are European Jews that practices the religion of Judiasm and has used this to disguise their wickedness. Many belong to the synagogues of Satan as recorded in psalms 83 and are certainly not a people that love and worship the God of Abraham,. Isaac and Jacob. Of course there is always the exception in every religion who genuinely love God but may not yet come to the knowledge of the truth. The real Jesus Christ from the tribe of Judah died for the whole world. I do not mean the white faced, blond haired, blue eyes a European Jesus painted in the image of Michael Angelo that was created by the Roman/Europeans in their own image and supported by the Vatican evil religious system for human oppression and domination. God is calling his Hebrew people back to himself. Many live in the land of Ham in Africa. Many live in the four corners of the world. God promise to bring them back to their own land in the end. Jamaica, the Caribbean, E gland, America, Canada, Australia, Brazil, Portugal and Europe is not our land. Some parts of Africa extend to the land of Israel but many people don't know this. Many Israelites escaped to Africa in AD70 when Israel was demolished by the Crusaders who bore the Roman cross and guns.
Your comment shows the extent of indoctrination these Abrahamic religions have had on Africans. You are brainwashed to defend them through all manner of twisted bible-inspired stories 🤣😆. Good luck!

I did not evolved into a human being from a monkey nor came about as a result of a big bang. So yes I do believe in the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and respect the fact that you can also choose to believe what or in whom you like also.
Thankyou for sharing. As I sat trying to figure out where in Africa Abrahams son lived that black Jamaicans can associate with. Should you have other literature link please can you share it. I went to the bible to find these answers

Jamaicans are the only carribbeans who actually associate as proud Africans 👏
Lies, many Caribbean islanders wear their African heritage with pride. I'm sure you have never spoken to everyone all over the Caribbean to make such a statement.
@@marciastx4540 Well he didn't say every/all Jamaicans
@@rvymvn he said they were the only ones, so his message was quite clear.
Is something is wrong with that. We do because our genes run far. Mix race with black blood. Embracing our blackness and origin. Everyone needs to find their true identify otherwise we are lost souls. Like a rolling stone. We still want to know the truth. Our motto stands out of many one people. All races are there including Africans. Ta dah
They think they are proud Nigerians. I don't think they would be claiming the macarons who helped enslaving them or maybe they would
Heyyy,I saw your video on tiktok were your kids missed you dead and their emotions were all over the place,when you visited them in school..it was cute❤
Just btw though..
Yes please. I travelled to create contents Jamaica 🇯🇲 ,Senegal, Togo, Ghana 🇬🇭
Sindaco try visit Suriname also, the speak twi and has Ghanaian names.
Please can you have another interview with some elderly ty.
😢A very interesting and informative interview.
Do people know about the maroons in Suriname?? Where we still speak kumanti and the lifestyle is till to day simmaler to Africa. Not only the marroons , but also the children of the slave's in town who got the culture believe, are getting visitation from the ancestors and speaks in there language!!
The language we speak as people in Surinam is on some point simmaler to the language the Jamaicans speaks ( patwa). The English where first in Surinam and after them the dutch came. Even English names are the same! There are more pure marroons in Surinam, looking just like the man in red!!
Those in Suriname wouldn't be called the maroons because that's a name created by the maroons in Jamaica to represent their cause
Majority of people from Suriname too I can confidently say their ancestral root is from West Africa - Ghana. Same looks my dear , we're all the same.
@@tampsonsinnovations7740 Interesting ✊🏿✊🏾
@@tampsonsinnovations7740 true have heard that story also
Maroon is the name for runaway slave communities all over the Caribbean and South America. The word Maroon was not created in Jamaica. Where you got that from?
Welcome you are a great blessing 💖 one love 👑 guidance 🔥
I always wondered too because there is so many similarities between Ghanaians and Jamaicans as mentioned in this video.
Sadly though there's a lot of Jamaicans that don't like to admit their ancestry.
I don't know or know of "any" Jamaican that don't like to admit their ancestry. Such reckless declaration requires context, evidence, clarity.
I am Jamaican resides in the U.S acknowledges my ancestors..frm Ghana.. I am descendants of the Ashanti tribe ...much respect!!
Where you you find those Jamaicans?? In my 32 yrs living in Jamaica I have never met one! Hello?? Have you seen our schools on fetes and festivals days? African prints are our go-to in October for heritage month. And jankuno is a must every December in any parish outside of Kingston. Kingston boring and only good for business these days. Any Jamaican I've had the privilege of talking to about Africa has never shun the conversation.
That's too bad for them ,still in the colonial brainwashment thinking !
You're absolutely correct
This is a dope interveiw.he dropped some jewels!
Most Jamaicans are of Nigeria origin small amount from Ghana look at 23 and me result 90% has more Nigerian genes than Ghana, plus it’s from tribes because that time countries weren’t founded
Not all Jamaicans, it's the maroons who share a lot in common with Ghana
Fivestargen
I totally agree with you that most of Jamaican are decendents of Nigerian slaves but the don't believe it as a rule they prefer to believe they are all descendents of Ghane some are most are not
@@aarahsamuel6980 our patwa is more like Nigerian pigin than Ghanaian pigin
@aarahsamuel6980 Few have had their DNA tested to know for certain if the highest portion of their DNA is Nigerian or Ghanaian. I know through my results that I am mostly from Nigerian ancestry.
No my friend its ghana
Oh nice story👌😘🙏💯
Thanks for watching
Same thing with Nigeria. We saw quite a few plants that were brought to Jamaica that also exist in Nigeria. I would imagine that they were also grown in Ghana since they are so close. My father inlaw who is Nigerian did ancestry DNA and all his relative matches were in Jamaica. I hope more people from the continent will do DNA to help more Black people in the America make the connections to the continent.
To be honest is not Africans Jamaicans who do not want to acknowledge that we are Africans I know that once Africans notice that we are Jamaicans they act very stand off and against us they are the first ones that started to tell us that we are Africans but yet decided to be so cold towards us and that is the reason why Jamaicans denied that we are Africans as a combat to how they treat us as Africans Africans need to be teach the history of Africans Jamaicans and acknowledge that we are all Africans and show us more respect and love as Africans and instead of being against us because African Jamaicans are open and welcoming down to earth very friendly to everyone quick to help anyone kind loving caring and the list goes on mean while our Nigerians Ghanaian you name it are very selfish towards African Jamaicans when African Jamaicans have all these good attributes about us and people be mean to us it hurt and that's when we'll cut and slice with our mouth and be ready to fight like Nanny and Cojo with no treatie teach them

Our history was prophesied in the book of Deuteronomy Chapter 28 Vs 1- 68 we are the Children of Israel.
There is no ethnic group in Ghana that has been rooted in Torah for laws or spiritual systems for cen turies.
Deuteronomy 28 does not apply to us.
Stop trying to fit a square into a circle and excuse the crimes against our humanity committed by the Europeans.
Good lesson to learn..please next time u interview someone,ask the question and JUST LISTEN and respect their response and allow then to be themselves during that period,stop pushing word and even a full sentence to him as if u want him to say what u know and think.just be silent and when done ask another
Thank you 😊
