Homestay with the Batwa Pygmies - Lonely Planet Travel Video

[BrandonJay1983]

Muzungu LaLa Kabizo eh?

[neo4reo]

@BrandonJay1983 Muzungu lala kabisa.. its actually swahili (spoken in kenya,uganda,tanzania,rwanda,b­urundi,congo,sudan, somalia) ..means these White guy's sleep a lot .i.e In this context he was probably joking that they sleep luxuriously with no problems..

[mittROMNEY666]

theyr not even short fuck this

[YamahaPhyscho]

god bless those kind and beautiful people!

[Pygmy7]

These Pygmies look as tall as the white guys, how is that?

[hacktik101]

are they true pygmy? i hate that word it is the equivalent of calling a black person nigger,collored negro, and even black in that matter..we don't know our history in it's full extent and black is a color not a nation...i think there is a bigger story behind this.. a cover up or something....in the congo they are enslaving them for the british to grow palm trees for some oil used to make perfume..we true people of afrika are fading away from this planet fast.....and we are clueless :(

[tenakinaki]

there is now other erhnic groups among them now who will be normal height

[FantasticMrDoc]

@Pygmy7 The eco-tourist experience is go with local people and kill some Pygmies I think,

[jimmy12187]

I wonder if they get u the bomb as green or some africa dance leaf trip juice to make up for all that racket

[ndorcer]

Batwa race in Burundi, they have a worst life. very bad life which you couldn't imagine or think through in your mind.

[throbule]

HeruKing........Which white supremacist system do you mean exactly? I live under a benign black government right now but I have lived under a black supremacist system in the past, and do you know what? It was, and still is one of the most corrupt and murderous regimes ever to rule in any African country. Unless you have lived in Africa, you can have no opinion worthy of consideration. You epitomise the worst of black blood - jealous, bitter , old and twisted, and lost in historical hatred!

[chellepower]

whoa, shut up guys. you both sound like idiots arguing on a youtube video. Oh yeah ironic that throbule calls HeruKing uneducated, but has the some of the best grammar I've ever seen on Youtube Comments ever. Lol.

[throbule]

And there I was thinking that you were just a bigot! I now realise that you an unbelievably stupid bigot. You are a disgrace to the human race , black or white for being so utterly uneducated. You really do need to stop smoking dope, get out more and get an education. As a blackman with the opinions you have you will stay in your insular ghetto and remain the laughing stock of intelligent people everywhere.

[throbule]

HeuKing.......You are just an unthinking bigot man! First of all I am not white nor am I Christian (not any other religion). Apart from anything else, I believe there is only one race - THE HUMAN RACE! The nature of mankind is changing all the time but there is nothing worse than a black crakkka - You need to read more, stop smoking dope, get out more and have some fun, and try to be a little less stupid than you can help.......

[throbule]

HeruKing......Grow up you stupid, racist boy! These people are not colonialist from 200m years ago - they are bringing much needed money into Africa that helps people eat and feed their kids. You are a perfect example that 'White idiots' are no different to 'Black idiots' - There is no place for your ridiculous opinion in the 21 st century!!!!

[Enormymous]

Ouch, tough luck there dude... That's a First Nations proverb, not an African one.

You know... those people who were almost completely wiped out and driven off their land and converted to christianity? Not the people who still live on their land, own each other as slaves, and still chop off each other's legs so witch doctors can brew up sex drugs for them?

Epic fail, dude... Epic fail.

[zu0832]

great video except for the soundtrack excerpts...you have all this wonderful African music to draw from and instead you use techno???

[sorin1918]

they're not pygmies anymore,this should be just another tribe in africa

[cathysollano]

I'm amazed by their hospitality. Its so touching that they stayed up all night to watch the foreigners. We usually greet foreigners with suspicion and hostility. The pygmies treated their foreigners like kings, without knowing what their intentions were for staying there. I'm in love with their selflessness and culture. I would like to visit this place one day. Thanks for sharing this video, and teaching me something new! :)

[theMAXILOPEZpsycho]

but were can you go if you want to stay with the really small ones then?

[creten69]

all people should be forced to live like the pygmies,for their entire lives!

[mywootgarden]

lol i find that sentance hillarious posted on the internet!

[ccisis]

Unfortunately these african ppl are naturally loving & trusting to all foreign enemy that show up in their village.

[zakoomu]

Those natives should quit dancing and singing stupid songs!  Those westerners are there to recrute them for the NEW WORLD ORDER! Those eco-tourism ventures should end right there.

[milliondustopeners]

the nwo dont want them. what they want is to displace all hunter/gatherer societies that can exist without modern comforts and "necessities".

they want everyone dependent on them and their economy. they want all knowledge of how to survive in the wild erased.

[zakoomu]

You are right on point. I feel sorry for the children of now and tomorrow. They'll be nothing but slaves to debt and bills.

Why are men and women bringing more slaves into this world, anyway? I don't understand what's wrong with mothers and fathers. Weird.

[milliondustopeners]

yup. how many people do you think know how to kill, skin, and process their own food. how many people know how to grow their own. if you were ill or injured do you know what plants to collect to make you better? not everyone.  we are all dependent on the system.

[truthspeaker969]

original african culture is already lost in so many cases

[foriensic]

OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT

VOTE FOR CHANGE

[Guerrier87]

Definitely an interesting and entertaining video. It's beautiful to see how people who haven't been brainwashed into society, behave and share a harmonious relationship with their natural environment!

[1beachygurl]

*LOL* "Muzungu Lala Kabiza" "White people sleep a lot"

Love it! That is so awesome! I love seeing the different cultures/ethinicities that God made!

[humanist7117]

"God" had nothing to do with it.

[1beachygurl]

If that's what you believe, that's you...I believe that GOD had EVERYTHING to do with it!!:)

[humanist7117]

Which god, Jehovah, Yahweh, Allah, Krishna, Shiva,The Rain god, The Great Spirit, the Volcano god? Let's let go of all these myths and supersitions.

[1beachygurl]

Oh hey, Good Morning!

Yup...Jehovah/Yahweh (the same), the True and Living God, of course! The same who sent Jesus to die for the sins of the world, that whoever believes in Him, has everlasting life!

I take it your an atheist??

[HCN8]

Ive been there, in fact, Im from there. Looks like you guys had fun.

[nuttierthanthou]

interesting

[loveyoutodeathbut]

What a fascinating trip. Your hosts took such good care of you staying up all night keeping watch and showing you about the native plants. That dancing reminded me of a friend from Ghana that taught us some native dances and explained their special significance.

[creten69]

nice travels there.That was nice and rare,what a dance they live,in the forest and the women.Did they beg for money alot?What food did you eat?how far was a city?
