I don't know how anyone can look at this video and be ashamed of being descended from people of the African continent. I think Whites are an attractive people, but I've never been attracted to any of them. I only find darker skinned people attractive--people with melanin rich skin.
@drmmhmd1 Yea, we all already know how you barbarians are, that you never learned how to be civilized, so much so—you Proboscis Monkeys even like hunting each other.
watch?v=wVsbms3wNKw&feature=related
watch?v=1jos342K3Y0
That's why the "niggers" are still here in ever growing numbers, while your admired german monkeys don't exist anymore, & you will soon follow their fate. LOL!
@drmmhmd1 By the way, we are not "nigger," (in which the word you are really trying to say is "negro" which means "black," & you barbarians just never learned how to say it correctly),
rather we are various shades of brown—in which the latin word would be "FUSCUS."
Poor guy. LOL!
Typical barbarian with an Inferiority complex, & now he's revealed he has no education as well, not surprised.
Now stop stalking us, please, go back to your cave, & go chew on your bone.
@thotsins Why re u people wasting ur precious words with this guy loool, can u see that he is in pain, i m sure he learnt about lot of think about the lies his people has been telling, for e.g the real people of Egypt, the first civilisation etc, and that hurt to learn the truth.
@drmmhmd1 Looks like we got our first insecure person with an inferiority complex, guys.
I told you eventually they'd find this & come—they just can't stay away. LOL! They keep coming to seek all our videos that are made for us and have nothing to do with them. They are obsessed with us or something.
Do we come looking at their videos about themselves, NOPE. Cuz we are not impressed with them. But they are jocking us, that's why they keep coming—just can't stay away. LOL!
Love It!! My wife looks like one of the last group East African Maritime. Shes always getting asked ignorant questions like what is she because of her Hair length and Texture. When she tells them shes Black mixed with Black they don't believe her.
Theres nothing wrong with FULL NOSES AND FULL LIPS. I like my look and physique. I go to Gym regularly and eat nutritious food. I would never want to be Somali or some biracial. I am commenting as a man. Maybe females of African descent in the US feel differently. To me those Senegalese ladies are the most attractive. I like their dark chocolate skin tone and features, followed by. S. Africans. Give me Megan Good or Samba Lathan over Haily Berry any day
@SpectacularFrontiers Hey, I said the same thing about the Senegalese too. I think both dark and light skin are beautiful. They both have their own unique appeal. Light skin looks soft & creamy; dark skin looks REGAL!
@SpectacularFrontiers Yea, we have so many different faces in Africa, and they all have their own unique beauty. That's what I like about us, never get the same thing twice.
so many beutiful women in this video but @14:02 this lady is the most perfect beuty in my opinion not saying she is better than the others but she has a beuty with out trying type Reminds me of an old friend
To my surprise, Lagos women appeared to have just as much more style than Americans. Finanicial security or stability is mandatory for both males and females to be able to look and feel their best.
Yes, I have seen quite a few Congolese naturaly light skin women as well. That shocked me because Congo is right on the Equator in the tropical zone..Also South African black girls are hot too. To me any most women in Africa look hot when they are economically stable. I mean Lagos, Nairobi, Kinshasa, Addis Abbeba, Cape Town, Accra have beautiful women. They are more sophisticated. The village women often can't afford to upkeep their beauty. Its the same everywhere.
@SpectacularFrontiers The village women have TRUE natural beauty untampered by Western influences and so called "beauty enhancements"-- namely make-up, chemicals for hair such as dyes, relaxers and texturizers and so on-- all of which ultimately damage the natural beauty of the African daughter.
It's a pity that most people are so unaccustomed to seeing "black" people with long hair cuz western media only shows African Americans, —that it becomes a bad habit that any time they see a "black" woman with long hair, they think it is a weave.
In Indigenous "black" ethnic groups, there's quite a few of us who grow our hair long naturally—and yes IT'S REAL.
And for those of us who do wear weaves—it's traditional, brought from Egypt.
@thotsins i have seen many west african women and some mix raced ethiopian women with short hair damaged hair from improper braiding.i have also seen blackwestern indan women reach waste lenth hair whether chemically prossed or natural hair care boards.i have never seen a african women grow long hair. african women tradionally are not ruunnung around with braids to the hips the way east indian women or even black western women.look on yt.
@MySkiesAreBlue24 Eh hem, you are talking to an african woman, hon. Before you talk about what african women do and don't do, you need to familiarize yourself thoroughly with our cultures. This video proves you wrong because almost the majority of the women with long hair have long hair naturally. Not all of them have weaves. So you can dispel that myth now.
@MySkiesAreBlue24 The problem is that the majority of the globe are not aware of the DIFFERENTY KINDS of black people that exist. The media only shows one stereotype and people think if you don't look like that stereotype of black, well then you must either be mixed or must have altered yourself in some way, like in wearing a weave.
But that's what this video destroys, that stereotype. Now you know there are many black women who have long hair of all textures—NATURALLY.
@thotsins black western on yt like shimahair21, Longhairdontcare2011, KISSseventyseven and others have grown their hair very long. the women in the video are weaved up. as children africans they have short hair. dont see this in black western little girls who usally have thick long blacks to thier butts. even if you look at the child models on the boxes of child relaxers none of then are directly from africa and they have long hair. hair id gentic and diet based.
@MySkiesAreBlue24 This video proved you wrong, cuz a lot of the African women in this video do not have weaves. Why do I know this? For one, I'm african woman myself with hair half way down my back—NATURALLY. For two, I made this video, & made a point to put African s in it who have long hair NATURALLY & no relaxers. That's the point of this video to show what african people REALLY look like, all the diversity we have NATURALLY.
@thotsins you dint have long hair unless your ethiopian or some other kind of mix race african you dont have long hair. i know ethiopians who have said other african women dont have long hair. naturaaly long hair is simply the abiliy to grow it. and african women dont have the genes to grow long hair. they dint even have big afros they way black ameircans did in the 70s.
@MySkiesAreBlue24 Well, Im NOT Ethiopian—Im from Equatorial/West Africa.
And my younger siblings hair is all the way down to her booty. So that proves that statement wrong.
Also, the rest of the women in this video who that have long hair proved that wrong also. Having long hair is NOT based of genes solely, rarely. It has to do with hair care, maintenance, & what you eat. All hair is made up of the same contents in all humans, so thus what is necessary to feed it and make it grow is the same.
@MySkiesAreBlue24 I'm from West/Equatorial Africa, and I know so many people there who had long hair. When I was little my hair was all down my back, and it grew a lot, and I never really tampered with it because I liked it the way is was. I cut it short after I wanted a different hairstyle, but my sister has always had long hair. I have sooo many African friends with long ass hair, and it sure as hell is NOT weave!
@MySkiesAreBlue24? The same African Americans with Afro hair in the 70s you can find the Herero and the Ovambos, Congolese, Nigerian people together with the Tanzanians whom I met with Afro hair Camp that came from the continent. I v got pictures 2-prove so where is yours? Stive biko,Stive kekana, Oliver Tambo,Walter Sisulu SA,Pepe kalle Kongo DRC,Namibia:Ben Amathila, Frankie Fredricks, Nigerian General Sani Abacha...
@MySkiesAreBlue24 So, again, you can dispel that myth. You're problem is that you have not seen enough about africa. And, no, not all african young girls wear their hair short. Me & my siblings had long hair from childhood.
Some young girls hair is kept short in childhood for personal preference in some African households, but that is only for easy maintenance. And that doesn't meant that standard stays in adulthood, nor does it mean African women's hair doesn't grow long naturally.
@thotsins but the majority of them are not know for having long hair. whne you think of women who have long locks east indans women are known for this. if pure breed afircan womne had long hair or could grow it it would show. alec wek is what typical afircan hair looks like and she aint got none. the only womne who had hair in this video were the ones who look asiactic/austrolid.the negroid ones had weaves.
@thotsins LOL! rusticbeauty is not from africa she is from the united states. african women do not grow long hair period. it has nothing to do with the texture. kinky hair can grow but africans never had access to proper nutrition this is why they dont grow long hair.
@MySkiesAreBlue24 LOL! No offense, but youre alarmingly ignorant. So much so, I think you're just playing. It is pitiable. Media's fault, but it is your job to re-educate yourself.
rusticbeauty is African—Her family IMMIGRATED from AFRICA. Thus her genes are 100% THE AFRICAN GENES THAT YOU CLAIM CAN'T GROW LONG HAIR.
Check out her parents at 1.53, They are both African—
@MySkiesAreBlue24 And our food made up of mostly vegetables is more nutritious than the junk food americans eat, so we get more nutrition to grow our hair than americans do.
I told you why some, only some, african women do not grow their hair—it is because of easy maintenance, not poor nutrition.
So you need to listen to the reason why WE AFRICANS say we may keep our hair short, instead of making up baseless fantasies & assumptions of poor nutrition.
@thotsins And another reason is that in some schools, the uniform is to cut your hair to a certain length, but other than that, I know plenty of Africans with long hair.
@MySkiesAreBlue24 LOL! Your comments aren't to be taken seriously. Your comments give evidence that you're possibly a pretender trying to push people's buttons to see what response you'll get, or drive them into giving a certain response.
I don't believe anyone is really THAT ignorant. Very difficult to believe, & really strange.
@MySkiesAreBlue24 Our hair, especially if it is very kinky, crunches & can be stretched to many lengths. Sometimes it looks short even when it is long. In my tribe we traditionally wear a lot of bantu knots, we do not cut our hair bald so like Alek Wek.
Most people looking at that lady's first clip would think her hair was short—but she really has long hair, and she is an African woman. A lot of African women have long hair naturally but tv doesn't show that, they only show the Alek Weks.
@MySkiesAreBlue24 My siblings have hair all the way down to their hips, and we don't have weaves. Mine is past my well past my shoulders. Frequently, people tell us they can't tell our hair is long, not until we straighten it. If people have met me for the first time, & my hair is straightened, I also get the ignorant questions of "do I have a weave?"
It's just ignorance because of media, that's all it is. That's why this video destroys that stereotype.
9.39, 9.41, 9.50, 9.54, 9.57, 10.01, 10.05, 10.30, 10.50 also have weaves
This is in The Equatorial region.
This is only CUZ in these regions it is TRADITIONAL to wear wigs & extensions—IT IS A CUSTOM BROUGHT BY OUR ANCESTORS FROM EGYPT, not cuz our hair doesn't grow.
@MySkiesAreBlue24 There is no such race as "NEGROID" we are all africans and from the same ancestors. Africans are the most genetically diverse on the planet, our ancestors passed a variety of genes, SO THEY ARE ALL AFRICANS.
People have this stereotype that so called "Pure African" is Alek Wek's appearance—that is far from the case. Look at Alek wek, & look at the Equatorial Africans in this video—Totally different.
I really liked the Senegalese ladies here the most. I loved their features, lips, skin tone an all. I'm here to cosighn that Those Senegal ladies looking that are common. I know many Senegalese
I have never lived on the African continent, but I have visited about 4 to 5 times. I suppose you are right. Its not as if all the people were dark( ain't nothing wrong with that)
@SpectacularFrontiers Me, I'm just brown with wavy hair, I'm not even chocolate brown. A lot of my relatives are very light skinned, some have hazel eyes, none of us fit the stereotype of "NEGRO." And we are not mixed either.
People who live out of africa usually no nothing about africa, i come from the Kikuyu tribe in Kenya, we are bantus, pure africans, about 300yrs back we met the San people and we absorbed them, they used to live in East africa before they migrated to South africa, then 150yrs ago, the Maasai had civil wars and we gave whole clans of the maasai refuge and we absorbed them, we have also merged with somalis, it always amaze me people who know little bout africa are always the one's talking the most
@thotsins they been fool by western media...dey no longer think 4 demself..I thought dey were wiser enough 2 learn 4rm these videos on youtube, dat r educating lots of ppl rite now about Afrika, but dey failed to...dey not just uneducated about Afrika, but Afrikan haters as well...dat's wat dey r...No matter wat dey say or think about Afrikans or Afrika...we r best, n Afrika is de plc 2 be!!!
@TheMunyiri Thank you. Waiting to see whatever videos hopefully you'll post as well. That was some good history you posted here! It'd make a GREAT video!
I've heard a lot of kenyan accounts of coming from "Msiri." Is it the same for Kikuyu?
@thotsins No, we the kikuyu migrated from central africa, present day cameroon, we went to south africa before we later moved to East Africa in 1000 AD, our bantu speaking cousins the Luhya are the one's who migrated from Egypt before they later came and settled in Kenya, i guess they run away from the arabs, bantus are from east africa all the way to south africa.
@thotsins Yes it would, in the coastal region of kenya they used to be a cannibal tribe called the wazimba tribe, this tribe was brutal and they used to eat arabs and any other intruders who ended up in their territory by mistake, the British later used them to fight for the Queen and when religion was introduced to them they stop eating people, they later were assimilated by the Mijikenda tribe because non of them exist any more lol.
@throbule So, yes, the video is spot on with regards to showing what we Africans look like—INDIGENOUSLY.
The seeming illegitimacy of the video from YOUR personal perspective, is really occurring as a result of your own ignorance—not because the video is inaccurate in portraying the indigenous diversity we have—without being mixed.
A lot of people from my country find it offensive to insinuate we are light because we are mixed.
@throbule When Europeans first came it's documented in slave trade records that the Biafrans/Calabars were "fair skinned, reddish, & yellow." They said to stay away from the Yellow skinned Calabars cuz we would not cooperate to be enslaved. They used the term "Redibo" as a pejorative term referring to as being fair-skinned.
This is why til today we have the nickname the "Yellow Paw Paws."
So, if you admit "I probably know my own immediate people better that you," then you should stop talking.
In case you didn't know scientifically it has been acknowledged and documented that Africa is the most genetically diverse continent on the planet. Light skin has ALWAYS been prevalent amongst our region even before Europeans came.
@throbule If you look at the video at 1.19, it says the photos in the videos are appearances that are HIGHLY COMMON amongst the ethnic groups to show the diversity we have—not that the whole ethnic group looks that way. There are some very dark skinned people in Equatorial Africa, but at the same time LIGHT SKIN IS VERY VERY PREVALENT.
THANKS a lot bro/sis i really enjoyed your vid .IT IS great knowledge for those who does not understand our diversity and beauty IT is shame and lack of knowledge that so call EUROPEAN SCHOLARS misunderstood what really AFRICAN ARE.
Iam afraid that we may loose our CULTURE IF THE MAJORITY OF AFRICAN PPL CONVERTS TO ISLAM THAT MEANS END OF OUR BLACK HISTORY .
I like this video very much indeed - it is well made, shows a great deal of the reality of African people's physical characteristics, and does it well.
The only niggle I have is the section where it say; 'No, they are not mixed'.
First of all unless you know those people, you could not know if they were mixed or not.
And secondly, it is a fact that many africans have mixed and intermarried with white westerners, Arabs and Asiand for centuries, so the video is not quite spot on.
@throbule I know those people in the part that says, "No not mixed" is accurate simply because—THAT IS MY TRIBE.
Also, I have a lot of those individuals personal biographies, and they specifically verified for the record that they are not mixed—that's the very reason I put them in the video. So I've done my homework. There is an abundance of people who look like that in my tribe including some of my own relatives, and no we are not mixed.
@throbule I've have the data of the DNA of our ethnic groups here—so I know whether they are mixed or not. There are no people here who are mixed with Mongoloid or Whites (possibly only 1 person). But other than that THERE ARE NONE MIXED WITH WHITE OR ASIAN.
But this video is about the diverse, people who live within the GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION of Africa. And I made a point to only showcase the Black Ethnic groups, the indigenous people of the land—not any of the late coming outsiders.
I can see how Barack Obama got his looks. He looks like the ppl from the swahili Islanders which is also located in Kenya

@MySkiesAreBlue24 And our food made up of mostly vegetables is more nutritious than the junk food americans eat, so we get more nutrition to grow our hair than americans do.
I told you why some, only some, african women do not grow their hair—it is because of easy maintenance, not poor nutrition.
So you need to listen to the reason why WE AFRICANS say we may keep our hair short, instead of making up baseless fantasies & assumptions of poor nutrition.

@thotsins And another reason is that in some schools, the uniform is to cut your hair to a certain length, but other than that, I know plenty of Africans with long hair.

@MySkiesAreBlue24 LOL! Your comments aren't to be taken seriously. Your comments give evidence that you're possibly a pretender trying to push people's buttons to see what response you'll get, or drive them into giving a certain response.
I don't believe anyone is really THAT ignorant. Very difficult to believe, & really strange.
BTW Interesting wall & channel. He He
Take care.

@MySkiesAreBlue24 Our hair, especially if it is very kinky, crunches & can be stretched to many lengths. Sometimes it looks short even when it is long. In my tribe we traditionally wear a lot of bantu knots, we do not cut our hair bald so like Alek Wek.
Most people looking at that lady's first clip would think her hair was short—but she really has long hair, and she is an African woman. A lot of African women have long hair naturally but tv doesn't show that, they only show the Alek Weks.

@MySkiesAreBlue24 My siblings have hair all the way down to their hips, and we don't have weaves. Mine is past my well past my shoulders. Frequently, people tell us they can't tell our hair is long, not until we straighten it. If people have met me for the first time, & my hair is straightened, I also get the ignorant questions of "do I have a weave?"
It's just ignorance because of media, that's all it is. That's why this video destroys that stereotype.

@MySkiesAreBlue24 These are the people who have weaves/extensions ...
5.20, 5.23, 5.27, 5.43, 5.54, 5.57, 6.01, 6.09, 6.16, 6.24, 627
This is all in the Senegal region.
9.39, 9.41, 9.50, 9.54, 9.57, 10.01, 10.05, 10.30, 10.50 also have weaves
This is in The Equatorial region.
This is only CUZ in these regions it is TRADITIONAL to wear wigs & extensions—IT IS A CUSTOM BROUGHT BY OUR ANCESTORS FROM EGYPT, not cuz our hair doesn't grow.

@MySkiesAreBlue24 These are the ones who DO NOT HAVE extensions.
1.57, 2.02, 2.05, 2.09, 2.16, 2.20, 2.24, 3.13, 3.20, 4.28, 4.39, 4.47, 4.50, 7.42, 8.16, 8.21, 8.23, 8.28 (this guy surely has no weave lol), 8.32, 8.35, 8.39, 8.43, 8.46, 8.51, 8.54, 8.58, 9.06, 9.17, 9.47, 10.09, 10.17, 10.46, 10.09, 12.47, 12.54, 12.57, 13.02, 13.46, 13.50, 14.01, 14.06, 14.09, 14.13, 14.17, 14.20.
So as you can see, contrary to your statement—the majority do NOT have weaves.

@MySkiesAreBlue24 There is no such race as "NEGROID" we are all africans and from the same ancestors. Africans are the most genetically diverse on the planet, our ancestors passed a variety of genes, SO THEY ARE ALL AFRICANS.
People have this stereotype that so called "Pure African" is Alek Wek's appearance—that is far from the case. Look at Alek wek, & look at the Equatorial Africans in this video—Totally different.

@SpectacularFrontiers Me, I'm just brown with wavy hair, I'm not even chocolate brown. A lot of my relatives are very light skinned, some have hazel eyes, none of us fit the stereotype of "NEGRO." And we are not mixed either.

People who live out of africa usually no nothing about africa, i come from the Kikuyu tribe in Kenya, we are bantus, pure africans, about 300yrs back we met the San people and we absorbed them, they used to live in East africa before they migrated to South africa, then 150yrs ago, the Maasai had civil wars and we gave whole clans of the maasai refuge and we absorbed them, we have also merged with somalis, it always amaze me people who know little bout africa are always the one's talking the most

@TheMunyiri Thank you. Waiting to see whatever videos hopefully you'll post as well. That was some good history you posted here! It'd make a GREAT video!
I've heard a lot of kenyan accounts of coming from "Msiri." Is it the same for Kikuyu?
thotsins 8 months ago
@thotsins No, we the kikuyu migrated from central africa, present day cameroon, we went to south africa before we later moved to East Africa in 1000 AD, our bantu speaking cousins the Luhya are the one's who migrated from Egypt before they later came and settled in Kenya, i guess they run away from the arabs, bantus are from east africa all the way to south africa.

@TheMunyiri You Know? That'd make an EXCELLENT video.
thotsins 8 months ago
@thotsins Yes it would, in the coastal region of kenya they used to be a cannibal tribe called the wazimba tribe, this tribe was brutal and they used to eat arabs and any other intruders who ended up in their territory by mistake, the British later used them to fight for the Queen and when religion was introduced to them they stop eating people, they later were assimilated by the Mijikenda tribe because non of them exist any more lol.

@throbule So, yes, the video is spot on with regards to showing what we Africans look like—INDIGENOUSLY.
The seeming illegitimacy of the video from YOUR personal perspective, is really occurring as a result of your own ignorance—not because the video is inaccurate in portraying the indigenous diversity we have—without being mixed.
A lot of people from my country find it offensive to insinuate we are light because we are mixed.
thotsins 9 months ago
@throbule When Europeans first came it's documented in slave trade records that the Biafrans/Calabars were "fair skinned, reddish, & yellow." They said to stay away from the Yellow skinned Calabars cuz we would not cooperate to be enslaved. They used the term "Redibo" as a pejorative term referring to as being fair-skinned.
This is why til today we have the nickname the "Yellow Paw Paws."
So, if you admit "I probably know my own immediate people better that you," then you should stop talking.
thotsins 9 months ago
In case you didn't know scientifically it has been acknowledged and documented that Africa is the most genetically diverse continent on the planet. Light skin has ALWAYS been prevalent amongst our region even before Europeans came.
thotsins 9 months ago
@throbule If you look at the video at 1.19, it says the photos in the videos are appearances that are HIGHLY COMMON amongst the ethnic groups to show the diversity we have—not that the whole ethnic group looks that way. There are some very dark skinned people in Equatorial Africa, but at the same time LIGHT SKIN IS VERY VERY PREVALENT.

I like this video very much indeed - it is well made, shows a great deal of the reality of African people's physical characteristics, and does it well.
The only niggle I have is the section where it say; 'No, they are not mixed'.
First of all unless you know those people, you could not know if they were mixed or not.
And secondly, it is a fact that many africans have mixed and intermarried with white westerners, Arabs and Asiand for centuries, so the video is not quite spot on.
Peace...
throbule 9 months ago
@throbule I know those people in the part that says, "No not mixed" is accurate simply because—THAT IS MY TRIBE.
Also, I have a lot of those individuals personal biographies, and they specifically verified for the record that they are not mixed—that's the very reason I put them in the video. So I've done my homework. There is an abundance of people who look like that in my tribe including some of my own relatives, and no we are not mixed.
thotsins 9 months ago
@throbule I've have the data of the DNA of our ethnic groups here—so I know whether they are mixed or not. There are no people here who are mixed with Mongoloid or Whites (possibly only 1 person). But other than that THERE ARE NONE MIXED WITH WHITE OR ASIAN.
But this video is about the diverse, people who live within the GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION of Africa. And I made a point to only showcase the Black Ethnic groups, the indigenous people of the land—not any of the late coming outsiders.
