5:07 face of Buddha

If this is true, why there's no Honda and Toyota in Africa? 😂

What about those Israelites that lived just north of Nigeria 🇳🇬 kingdom of Judah 1736 and by the 1800s they were no longer there because they got caught up in the slave trade. Oh and by the way, "BLACK" or NEGRO is not a nationality. So then, who are we. And why is it such a secret. We're not African because if that was the case, it would have been on our ancestors birth records. It only says NEGRO. Which means black. ? What is our nationality. And don't sat African. Keep going northward

Thank you !!!!!!

the music is too loud and distracts from the information

Wow, finally a channel based in logic and critical thinking that takes a realistic approach to African history. You've gained a subscriber.

Very good content,Very,very informative.

Awesome. Very well balanced, and I hope to see more black history, and less Afrocentrism. Mind you Eurocentrism is balls too, but that usually degrades to Aliens and lost advanced civilisations. If I present any evidence that counters Afrocentrism, I get called, let’s see “pink skin”, wyt person, European, Eurocentric etc. I’m an Australian, and I do have aboriginal heritage, which Afrocentrism’s deny, because they cannot comprehend that Aboriginal genetics don’t work the same as a North American black person. I respect your words, and I want to learn more about great black cultures, but Afrocentrism’s get in the way. Among the group of Afrocentrist I debate with, it’s a one sided debate, they would call you a “race traitor”. Which I think is ridiculous. You are passionate about black culture, and I will be happy to learn more from you.

Thank you for this man.

Hulgu Actually assassinated Genhis khan👹

The mongols would’ve lost to Wakanda

Thank you for standing up for the truth. As you said Afrocentrism grew out of the desire to correct Eurocentrism but became just as wrong.

Respect. I am glad there are people that think the same way as I do, regardless of skin color.

Thank you for the knowledge, but I recently saw a Chinese genetist admit that The Chinese have African origins and Japan by Nigerians from Edo st.Hence the name Edo.With similar linguistics

Arabs used the curse of Ham from the Bible to justify enslaving Africans even if they were Muslim, But that scripture is misunderstood and taken out of context

You’re not Arab. I’m Ghanaian and Syrian by blood as I’m from a mixed group of Ghanaian Arabs in Accra. I’m African and Arab and everyone I know sees me as such. Your African. Stay away from my amazing heritage you fakers. Cope bruh, you’ll never get these Arab genes.

I’m curious as to what material the armor of Benin was made from I also love it’s design it really stands out and I wonder how it compares with other types of armor like chainmail or lamellar for example.

Africa was flourishing for millenia before the advent of European colonialism. Hundreds of kingdoms have risen and fallen over 5,000 years of recorded African history, with kingdoms emerging from the savannah, forest, Sahel and Maghrib, from the Black dynasties of Ancient Egypt (yes there were!) and Nubia to Buganda, including the Great Lakes area from Burundi to Uganda and South Sudan, and the West African Sudanic empires which lasted for 1,000 years. Black people don't need revisionist afrocentric pseudo-history when there's so much **real** history to explore! Cleopatra was Greek, and probably quite pale-skinned due to her pampered lifestyle and not going out much in the sun. In other words, white. 😂

There's actually been trade between East Africa and Asia pre colonial times dating centuries back. There's evidence the Benin people immigrated from East/central Africa to west Africa through the River Nile. So who knows, maybe there was a link

were too lazy to selectively breed zebra into domestic animals

Now this is not a linguistic similarity, just want to point out what Leo Frobenius said in his book. He described the way the Yorubas especially Oyo build their houses and he said the floor plans were similar to one another. Just thought it was weird. Probably just a coincidence though

I think it would surprise nobody if iron smelting was independently invented in both Africa and Eurasia: copper smelting was independently developed in both South America and Eurasia after all.

Finally some true ancient african architecture.. but still, nothing as impressive as the great chinese wall, the aztec and mayan temples, and the buildings of the ancient roman empire

Oggi il mondo è così povero che è impossibile imparare quslcosa da questo, cioè dal mondo. Quindi, in tale situazione, diventa gioco facile costruire i cervelli altrui a piacimento di chi comanda. Vedi telefoni e televisori... .Su un foglio bianco ci scrivi quello che cazzo vuoi! Questo è il cervello della stragrande maggioranza di persone oggi :un foglio bianco!

The title of this video is racist😒

Sorry but where is the first episode?

Takeaways and Prior Knowledge: An local slave trade existed in Africa prior to colonisation. It was, however, different in both its scale, treatment and social role. It was greatly exacerbated and worsened by the european demand for the generation of profits and capital from new world resources, and that destablized and drove conflict within African countries today. Aside, slavery does still exist in the United States, though it has more to do with human trafficking from the third and second world and less to do with historical chattle slavery in America. Slavery does still exist in Africa, only this time instead of a focus on the slavery for the extraction and production of raw materials in the New World, it occurs for the purpose of resource extraction in Africa itself, most notably in the Congo, where the demand for material resources for high tech technologies in the first world, like computer chips, as well as traditional consumption based luxury products like coffee, sugar and chocolate, continue to drive the poverty of third world conditions, as western companies pay well below products actual value to increase profits and perpetuate conditions of slavery and poverty in the third world. The role western companies have in perpetuating the weakness and exploitation of third world nations is inexcusable and is the greatest human tragedy of our time. Capitalism will not allow for Africa or any other third world nation to become a successful country. And the fact that there is no such thing as ethical consumption under capitalism means everyone here on a laptop, computer or celllular device, who drinks a cup of coffee or eats a bar of chocolate is complicit in perpetutuating conditions in third world. That isnt a moral condemnation of any of you, I am guility of this as much as you are, and we all are, whether you are a poor or rich person in the first world or a rich person in the third world. It is inescapable. The only thing we can do is to act contrary to our own interests as consumers upon ethical grounds. The biggest obstacles to the third worlds success today is not historical wrongdoings, they are current and continuous wrongdoings that follow those that came before.

They were Arab. Look at how develop Arab countries are and look at the grass huts in Africa. Stop spreading fake news. Islam is king.

Just so happy to see a just reasonable video of this kind of question... Far too often people just want to see historical things to be as they wished...

the most logical one thanks

No😂

The funny thing is that black pharaohs existed, just not in Egypt, but in Nubia. Basically the entire twenty-fifth dynasty of Egypt was of sub-Saharan origin. All Afrocentrists have to do is look a little further south... and study some history

You're wrong bro. DNA proves they were in fact Negroids

The Opi kinda reminds me of a ancient greek Xiphos. Just with a more pronounced curve or leaf shape.

Wait why didn’t you talk about the voyages of Zheng He since you did bring up giraffes and the Ming Dynasty

You are my favorite person. ❤

As much as I sincerely appreciate the amount of research that went into this, this video would have been SO MUCH better if the animation were narrated. This way you don't need to have the scroll-text intro, and the viewer doesn't have to switch their eyes constantly between the facts and the animation.

I had to stop myself from clicking off of this. Because I'm an idiot. The time-crawling map is pretty damn useful and well implemented.

Now, Im as white as it gets and unfortunately you're right about the type of people that try to claim different cultures, I honestly want to explore african art and culture but I'm learning I have to do it on my own with out any agendas on either side. there's too many people trying to muddy it all up and, again, unfortunately it happens on all sides. great video, humble and honest. I respect that man.

Aboriginal Americans were dark skinned too but they aren’t going to tell you that, the Olmecs are proof

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Bro is correct

Moor means black in greek

The Europeans of the time were totally indoctrinated with the idea that they were the descendants of the people who created civilization. It wasn’t true then, and it’s not true now. However, the majority of them would have believed that they were the extension of Ancient Roman civilization. They were not.

Have you done a video on wabos/abo/black American aborigines?

Basically, the answer is you don't know what Africa would look like today without outside influence. Thanks.

I watched your historical documentary with full enthusiasm. We Africans are indebted from disclosing thos deliberately hidden wisdoms of Africa. However, I observe your bit shyness to cover & acknowledge the role & contribution in African ancient history & wisdom when it comes to Ethiopian Kushites or Aksumite Empire. Even on this very documentary, you mentioned nothing. I don't think you are unaware of Somalis were part of Ethiopia by then that extends unto river zanzira (Zanzibar). The fact that the queen of Punt sailed unto Egypt witnessed on paints of one of the Egypt pyramids. You might also aware if Indian manuscripts describing the now Ethiopians as "Ship builders & decendants of reptiles. You might also knew the expedition of King Kaleb, the Aksumite emperor, reached Hemyarwith 60 ships carrying troops crossing the Red Sea. Why are you shy to mention a bit about our common history? It seems you are deliberately omitting it. Why? I felt sad though appreciate what your contributions. Moges Hiluf, Tigray, Ethiopia

I think of Celtic, Anglo Saxon, Germanic, and Latin groupswho share a common culture but are not closely enough related to be considered one large family as tribes and those who can still trace familial relationships (i.e., so and so is my great uncle, etc) as clans. (I have heard many others describe these with the same terms). I think of empires, and nations as organizations that are comprised of people who are seen as existing to sustain and promote the organization. I think of "fathers" (I know you didn't use that term here but I use it so there it is and chiefs as people with an intimate understand and concern of those they rule. Sometimes are motivated by a quest personal power but the purpose of their position is to create an environment that will benefit those under them and they know those people well enough to know what they value, etc. Will there be time when individual interest must defer to the interest of the group? Of course, but the complexity of the group is recognized and considered because of the intimacy of the leader with those he/she leads. I think of emperors, kings, presidents, governors, and etc. as those whose objective is (aside from quests for personal power) to preserve the impersonal organization in which all of their subjects or all of the citizens reside. The leader may be tolerant of those different from him/her but there is no need for him/her to understand every person or cultures values because if those need to be sacrificed to preserve the organization it is his/her duty to do so. As you yourself pointed out, the definitions are vague enough that each can be applied to most groups. (Subjective terms regarding size, etc). However it does not follow that the "tone" or "connotation" that one person or group receives a term in the absolute meaning of that term. It certainly does not follow that because one uses a different term for impersonal organizations as the do for organizations where the leadership deep understands the values of the people and culture they lead believes that the latter are inferior than the former. Both have their purpose, benefits and disadvantages. I agree that when those terms are used exclusively for people from region and there are other things in the culture of the culture using such terms that declare a sense of superiority it is reasonable to draw the conclusion that they mean those terms in the same way they mean other terms. However, experience has shown me these terms are not applied to one geographic location as opposed to another and it seems that the proofs you use of this exclusivity are cited from things written during the colonial era. In other words, "in the colonial era, these terms were used exclusively for groups that were simultaneously label as "primitive" and "savage" so anyone who uses these terms now is using them in the way colonial powers did. I do not see them using them in regards to groups I do not study, therefore they are not using them in regards to groups I do not study."
