[hambaabir]

@1Waddup you are not behaving,you committing a sin in the eyes of god when you call terrorist and a rapist to prophet. sham on you, what ever religion you believe doesn't tells you to insult some one's believe. please ask your god for forgiveness.

[Kiiki]

Subhanallah I was thinking the exact same thing, I wouldn't say 100 percent but nonetheless very similar looks to Somali's

[dagaalyahaanzz]

It is amazing These people look like much of Somali people. they physical appearance is 100% Somali. There must be a relationship.

[alex16130]

Sand plus race discrimination sure is a way to hell in racist Mauritania where immigrant Arabs made the lives of Africans destitute on their own continent .

[BondsOfHumanity]

The simplicity of their lives is wonderful... a very beautiful place.

[royalmiskeen]

ahh the hard but pleasant life of desert.Mauritania is some beauty...MAshAllah.

[kuldi1000]

Luv to c the African people in deserts as much as in Savanahs. I say this as person with a mixed diasporic heritage whose paternal ancestors were stolen from around the Gambian-Mauritanian regions. Agree, with comments above; we must know each other, minus the Europeans, and share how beautiful our continent is. RESPECT!

[dakogbunal]

sorry to ask. it says here 52 mins and what was shown was only 10mins. wheres the rest ?

[jaankhan23]

even i didn't know that my muslim brothers live from western africa to deeb in western china. and frm turkey to southern indonesia.

we can make more effective unites even effective then united nation.

[anitaalford]

I don't live in a desert, but I swee God's creation when I look at the blue sky and the green trees. God is real and he always take care of his people.

[ke467]

nice video. it's great to see a different side of africa.

[pomegranate50]

a different side? do tell

[ke467]

the western media doesn't show africa in this way. they only talk about war and diease. and they don't show the various ethnicities and cultures throughout africa.

[pomegranate50]

you speak such truth with this point. indeed it is wonderful to see a non-enthographic style examination and actual interviews with of a group people in this region. its good that they are allow to speak for themselves. african people are often, it seems, made "voiceless" (and thus, mindless?) by western media coverage. peace.

[JaniceHope]

Yeah right... This movie is distributed by which company? JourneymanPictures. Founded by whom? *gasp* A westerner!!! *shock* Stop telling your lies, idiot!

So called western TV is full documentries showing all kinds of cultures from China to Africa to Australia to America. Open your closed eyes, maybe you start to see or buy some glasses. And stop promoting your hatred.

[ke467]

fuck off. i grew up in america. and the media doesn't show this side of africa. they show mostly poverty and diease.

[JaniceHope]

Well fuck your self you have better chances with that.

So you grew up in America... America is not "the west". Travel first before you make assumptions and if you watch TVchannels that don't show documentries it's your own fault. Those exists even in America. Using a remote control is no big skill. Even you could learn that. In my country alone there 6! TVchannels that have their focus on documentries. So stop spreading your unfounded hate without proof.

[eaglestriker24]

USA! USA! USA!

[jaankhan23]

Journeymap is Australian. Australia is not in west. australia is in south. South of world is very nice tempremently. This what I think. But i can be wrong either.

There are small argument between brothers and brothers. that is not hatred.

[VraiDiouf]

@ke467 That's not necessarily true, I think the Western Media in England and parts of France do show this part of Africa.  It is only in America where they make all Africans look bad.

[ke467]

@VraiDiouf yeah that's true

[Ryce20020]

thanks for posting this

[JimmyThecruel]

Thx for posting this

[sweetab24]

thanks for the documentary. isnt this the Blue Men people who transport salt across the Sahara??? very interesting to see other cultures & how they live.

[KushaDwipa]

Probably they are not the "Blue Men" (Tuareg). They look and sound like Hassaniyya or Trarza called "the Moors" of Mauritania and southern Morocco. The video? Loved it .

[VraiDiouf]

@sweetab24 Well they are not speaking Tamasheq which is the language of the Kel-Tamasheq (Touareg) so no, they are Hassaniya or Black Arab. Their language is not quite the same as Arabic spoken in the middle east. I don't really understand it, but I do know this, even though I do not understand their language, I am from the Same region as them the Sahel/Sahara, and I know the beauty of the desert,. I jwish the Light Skin Arabs in Mauritania were less racist to all those who are black in Mauri
