white scientists have africans labeling themselves as "cushites" or "bantus" or many other categories. this is why africa is a shithole today; blacks still worshipping whites and arabs; the white man will take africa again while africans argue over the names given by their white & arab overlords
don't show your map and explain bullshit about what you don't really know about what you re talking bantu it is a white invention so even if we accept the new term( not all ) the location of the bantu speaking in the map is wrong the are most in the centre,south,and east west is not bantu speaking bantu is not physical family but just a linguistic family (bantu just mean people) we can also call the english speakers people. somali bantu what not somali people it is the same bantu=people
just like "Deutsch" (= German), which comes from "Dietsc"h (= "people") aswell as does the word "Dutch", the spread of the word "Bantu" -largely- coincides with the spread of a vast ethnic group with common roots. While the original meaning of the noun was just "people in general, it has been used as the label for an existing peoples, much as "Deutsch" and "Dutch" have.
"Black" OTOH is the term ENTIRELY made up by the self-proclaimed "Whites".
"Somali Bantu" is a term that is a bit misleading. The Bantu ethnicity, which originated in what is today Cameroon, includes 2/3 of the whole of Africa. Most Africans are Bantu. What are referred to as "Somali Bantu" today but those usually outside of Somalia are descendants of ethnic Bantu people from south eastern Afrcia (Malawai, Tanzania, Mozambique) who were captured by Arab slave traders and sold as slaves to the Cushitic Somali people.
@tinjarir the word "bantu" is misleading as well and is a word made up by a white scientist in the 1800's ..There is no so-called "Bantu" people...the majority people of africa are many different ethnic groups & tribes but some white scientist has us calling africans BANTU...it is a bogus word
Why don't those Bantus' immigrate to Kenya, Kenya is a Bantu Nation and happens to be the richest Nation in East Africa, Non-Bantu Somalia's run there, plus there are many Kenya Somalia's that don't want to be a part of Somalia.
How ironic is that, Bantus' are the richest and most powerful in East Africa, this video is somewhat misleading because it creates this illusion of victimhood amongst Bantus' when they are essentially the most privileged group in that region.
@rdokoye there is no "BANTU" nation or ethnicity...it is tricks to rule africa by europeans...a white guy made up the name 'bantu' and it spread because africans worship everything white people do instead of thinking for themselves...how are they gonna lump the entire african race into one ethnic group..this is beyond ridiculous
Bantu is an African word that means "people"; it was not invented by white people. The attempt to lump different groups together based solely on linguistic similarities is a white invention. Moreover the word Bantu is intelligible in all Central African languages.
@rdokoye so because "bantu' supposedly means 'people' you now allow a white guy to label you as a race called 'bantu'? you say central africa but somalis call every non-horn of africa african 'bantu'...they call west & south africans 'bantu' also...ae all afrocans 'bantu'? stop allowing whites to label you and think for yourselves
Bantu doesn't supposedly mean "people"; it DOES mean "people". There's no such race called Bantu. As I said before, Europeans tried to use linguistic similarities to draw correlations between specific African ethnic groups. That doesn't make the argument valid, Italian, Spanish and Portuguese are related languages, but the people are not.
@rdokoye from what i know the europeans chose the african languages that were related wherever they saw a word similar to "bantu"...such as "mntu" or "mutu" which meant "people" and then used that to label the languages as "bantu". they then extended that to mean a racial term. the south africans call blacks "bantu" and so do the somalis. just because they found a word meaning people they now made the "bantu" a race. this is faulty science.
It seems the only ones that think Bantu is a race are those who aren't classified as Bantu and Congolese People. Everyone else in that region acknowledges their own ethnic and cultural heritage.
@rdokoye wiki also says bantu languages originated in nigeria or cameroon.. this is so ridiculous...don't believe everything you read; and stop worshipping white people; do you also have a white jesus picture in your house? william bleek named you because he said your languages had the words "muntu" or "mutu" for "people"...there is no bantu people; africans are the most diverse people on earth but now they are known as "bantus" because of one white guy? ridiculous
The South Eastern tip of Nigeria and Southern Cameroon, Bantu is a language classification, nothing more nothing less; just like Latin. It doesn't mean all peoples who speak a Latin dialect as their first language are related. What's with you and white people?
The Jesus I worship was a black man, not white and no, I don't have any graven images or idols in my house.
I'm not Bantu nor do my people speak a Bantu dialect; I'm from West Africa. As I said before, it's just a language classification; no one sees it as a racial classification except for Congolese People.
@rdokoye you are aware that the somali are labeling you "bantu" based on how you look, right? in other words it's a RACIAL term for them...same with the white south africans during apartheid. they labeled africans as "bantus'.
No one cares what Somalis think, they are pretty much the least significant group in Africa; they don't even have a country for crying out loud. Once they build something of their own, then we can begin to discuss their feelings and attitudes towards other groups of Africans. Moreover, most Somali people are easy going and in no way separate themselves from other Africans, it's only the fanatics and insecure ones that do that.
I don't care what white people call us, from an African context their opinions and views means absolutely nothing to me and to most African people, what's with you and white people?
Somali's have no political or economical clout, so no one really cares what they think. West Africans are Kwa People, not Bantu and Southern and Central African Languages are Bantu, that don't mean all the people are related however.
I know who I am, I don't know where you're getting your information from, white people know next to nothing about black people so I don't see how they could label me in anyway.
@rdokoye well white people labeled africans as "negroid" and now the whole world uses that silly term; whites have ruled the world the past few hundred years so people tend to take anything they say as infallible fact...
@rdokoye what are you talking about? white people created the racial classifications of "negroid", "caucasoid" and "mongoloid"...and now the whole world uses these terms to classify so-called races of humans..these words are complete nonsense yet everyone uses them...the whole world worships so-called 'white' people
Well I've never heard an African describe himself as belonging to the Negroid race nor have I heard an Asian say they belong to the Mongloid race. It's all Western rhetoric, in other parts of the world they don't use such terms to describe themselves.
You're looking at it from a western point of view and extrapolating, which is wrong.
there were no slaves in africa before the invasion of the greeks 332 egypt never had slaves they had prisoners of war and those groups were enslaved by arabized africans going back 1500 years ago
if the history of the bantus is not wrote by a traditional bantu i dont believe it
fuck da freedom u had more freedom then regular somalian u know what fuck i mean by that..why do u want white ppl to feel sorry for u..they don't trust me we will see u when u go back to ur jungle
Love the Somali Bantus. Good, fair, hardworking people.
