  • @Supermassively You know what, lol, i could say the same thing about racist, ignorant, bastards like you. Oh, and this was back in 1934 ( If you didn't know ) and at the beginning of this video ( if you weren't paying attention ) the narrorator said the practice was outlawed. So before you try to say something stupid make sure you have all your facts straight. :)

  • God, these savages are fucking stupid. We need to either kill them or modernize them.

  • as idiotic as circumcision

  • So . . . slavery is responsible for the Daffy Duck look? There's not one iota of evidence for that. I think it just as likely there were worn as a preventive for oral sex. And I suppose slavery is also responsible for wearing your underwear out, your paints down to your thighs, your hat backwards, one cuff on your jeans rolled up and your shoelaces untied.

  • @lehamic1 Yes, it is doubtful that slavery had anything to do w/the genesis of lip plates. See my response to IanHunedoara8. There’s also no evidence that lip plates prevented oral sex. I’ve heard that oral sex may have been enhanced when plates were removed. Many in western culture have no problem w/circumcision or breast implants. Wearing lip plates for these ladies was as natural to them as you putting on pants. I am however troubled by your racist statements & will be removing your post soon

  • @ericsu812 What in Lehamic1's statment is he being racist? I see no false aggressive information his post. Racist information has to be false and\or used in an agressive tone. EXAMPLE: most Black men like to sag with pants below the waste. Aggresivly i would say "Fucking blacks sag cus they like showing other men where to shove their slim-jims" Implying blacks are gay for sagging.. Anyway he didint use anything racist. Blacks have brought all the stuff he listed into our pop culture.

  • @TheTrueMusic95 Im not racist either. I'm against most of the ignorant shit i see going on like sagging and callin' women "bitches" like most blacks do, but its not like im going to hate a respectable black because of his skin. I'll hate any asshole just like the other regardless of skin color. I'll like anyone who has an ounce of respect and dignity

  • Done to discourage Arab slave traders.

  • @IanHunedoara8 There have been 100s of 1st hand accounts by explorers who talked w/lipdisk wearers, Sara Lobi Musgu, who said lipdisks were for beauty, cultural & spiritual reasons. From archeological digs, African peoples have been known to wear lipdisks for 4000+ yrs. Yes, it’s possible lipdisks may have dissuaded slavers, however there is little evidence on this. The reason the slaver myth may have started is that westerners could not wrap their minds around this form of cultural expression.

  • Okay I know this is their way of being spiritual but (please don't be mad I'm immature... xD) they kinda look like ducks.... But I'm watching this without sound so I can't listen if anyone is saying something on this and didn't it hurt like I bet its heavy and it bled alot....

  • @Cavetta101, Lip plates were considered spiritual, empowering & beautiful. The initial lip piercing probably hurt a little as did the 1st month or 2 of healing & stretching. After that there would have been no pain or bleeding. The real pain may have come when Sara women had their 4 lower front teeth removed to make way for the lower lip plate. This was done by knocking out the teeth with a stone chisel & hammer (ouch). Sara women used light wooden disks, allowing them to protrude straight out.

  • @ericsu812

    Nasty, but how did they strech the lip??

  • @rachel11smith Both lips were pierced at age 5 or 6 using a long sharp thorn. To maximize the thickness of each lip for future stretching, the upper lip was pierced as close to the nose & the lower lip was pierced as close to the chin as possible. Then a piece of straw was inserted in each hole. After healing in about a month, a slightly larger plug was inserted. The insertion of larger & larger plugs continued for several years until the lips had reached the desired size (100mm - 400mm plates).

  • The definition of spirituality.

    Beautiful dedication.

  • The rational for this practice was to make these women worthless to Arab slave traders. Another African tribe would insert rings between the shoulder and head to lenthen the neck to avoid being taken captive and being sold into a Sultan or Shiek's harem.

  • esas madres se ven bien culeras...

  • lip plates are beautiful in there own way :)

  • @Elliot927 --no they are NOT.

  • to me they are :)

  • they are at least interesting.

  • No first of all it was meant to make them look repulsive didn't you hear the man. Oh and its not their option to do it or not, they must do it for tradition at a young age without them having any say in it. I think the best thing to do would have been letting them decide weather to do it or not, BUT Letting them Know that its NOT bad to refuse to do it.

  • I think I mostly agree with you. If the plates were forced upon children, I'd have mixed feelings, but they're usually put in place between the ages of 13 and 18. I think by that time a person should be allowed to make an informed decision for themselves, as long as the procedure doesn't involve physical pain or increase the likelihood for infection.

  • Yes, but concepts of beauty are very strange (have you ever seen a bound foot? It's disturbing.)

  • Holy fuck

    What gave the french government the right to ban their practices?

  • kinda funny how they thought outlawing something in a native tribe would stop them. there are still many tribes who do this to this very day.

  • even people who arent even in tribes who think its cool to stretch thier ears.

  • like myself.

  • It did stop them.

  • no, it didn't.

    i know people personally today who have lip plates.

  • yuk

  • can they still talk ok with those plates in??

  • Comment removed

  • there's nothing wrong with living in a mudhut, that's how civilization started, living in a capitalism society does not make you clever

  • Then go live in a mudhut.

  • lol hihi i 'll take you with me

  • Lonnie G. Johnson invented the world-famous watergun, the Supersoaker. Dr. Patricia. E. Bath invented a method of eye surgery that has helped many blind people to see. Otis Boykin invented the electronic control devices for guided missiles, IBM computers, and the pacemaker. Also, invented over 28 different electronic devices.

  • Light skinned negroes with lots of Euro blood-lines

  • And he is black... let me remind... BLACKS DON'T COME IN ONE SHADE LIKE WHITE PEOPLE... WE COME AS DARK AS MIDNIGHT AND AS WHITE AS SNOW... ur not talkin to a fool...

  • well, i'am not a negro. yeah, negro means black, but my skin is not black as a crayola crayon... darn it, i'am brown... i'am a BROWN american... a BROWN FEMALE AMERICAN, so not only do i represent my people. I also have TWO titles to up-hold. no, lol, ji'm just jokin'... SO where are u from?

  • The potato chip was invented in 1853 by George Crum. Crum was a Native American/African American chef at the Moon Lake Lodge resort in Saratoga Springs, New York, USA. French fries were popular at the restaurant and one day a diner complained that the fries were too thick.

  • Although Crum made a thinner batch, the customer was still unsatisfied. Crum finally made fries that were too thin to eat with a fork, hoping to annoy the extremely fussy customer. The customer, surprisingly enough, was happy - and potato chips were invented!

  • Madam C. J. Walker (December 23, 1867 - May 25, 1919) was an inventor, businesswoman and self-made millionaire. Sarah Breedlove McWilliams C. J. Walker was an African-American who developed many beauty and hair care products that were extremely popular. Madam Walker started her cosmetics business in 1905. Her first product was a scalp treatment that used petrolatum and sulphur. She added Madam to her name and began selling her new "Walker System" door-to-door.

  • Norbert Rillieux (March 17, 1806-October 8, 1894) was an African-American inventor and engineer who invented a device that revolutionized sugar processing. Rillieux's multiple effect vacuum sugar evaporator (patented in 1864) made the processing of sugar more efficient, faster, and much safer. The resulting sugar was also superior. His apparatus was eventually adopted by sugar processing plants all around the world.

  • and although it says patented... IT MADE THE INVENTION BETTER... "TWO MINDS ARE BETTER THEN ONE"...

  • George Washington Carver (1865?-1943) was an American scientist, educator, humanitarian, and former slave. Carver developed hundreds of products from peanuts, sweet potatoes, pecans, and soybeans; his discoveries greatly improved the agricultural output and the health of Southern farmers. Before this, the only main crop in the South was cotton. The products that Carver invented included a rubber substitute, adhesives, foodstuffs, dyes, pigments, and many other products.

  • It doesn't matter. The point is WE'RE NOT STUPID...

  • Blood is the part of the body identified as the essence of life. Loss of blood is loss of life, and replacing it when necessary has for centuries been recognized as a desirable if elusive procedure. Thanx to DR. CHARLES DREW an American medical doctor and surgeon who started the idea of a blood bank and a system for the long-term preservation of blood plasma (he found that plasma kept longer than whole blood). His ideas revolutionized the medical profession and have saved many, many lives.

  • *DR. CHARLES DREW AN AFRICAN AMERICAN

  • Blood banks started as early as 1915 in New York city by Richard Lewison. Blood plasma on the other started by Charles Drew during world war 2 but he looked more white than black if you ask me. lol

  • Is EVERYONE in AMERICA pure AFRICAN, or EUROPEAN? ARE U PURELY WHITE? are YOU sure YOUR family didn't catch JUNGLE FEVER?

  • Im not an American. Im quite sure im pure

  • u QUITE sure... (thinkin) hmm... (stops thinkin) ok, lol, QUITE sure...

  • Your mistake is that you are taking one aspect of the individual (general intelligence) and making it the basis of their humanity. That's asinine. You might as well take upper body strength and make that the basis of humanity, then say that women are inferior to men because they aren't as strong.

  • Well as you can see nature made black people run faster. Are you denying that? So why deny difference in intelligence?

  • YES!!! I'am denying that because I DO NOT run fast. I NEVER could; I ALWAYS got beat; lol, I don't like to run - I HATE sports... ugh, I NEVER liked running, or anything.

  • And the list goes on and on

  • I think rather than outright intellectualism, the mental skills slavery selected for were a high-level cunning. We still see this manifested in many aspects of modern black life such as creating slangs that nonblacks cant understand, being extremely street smart, mastering high level con games, highly improvisational cognitive skills that can be seen in everything from off the cuff banter to improvisational jazz to freestyle rapping.

  • Pimping "by the book" is another example of high level cunning. I dont think IQ tests can properly test for these, but I think theyre very valid cognitive abilities. For example one can claim that Im being an apologist making weak excuses and that being high IQ is automatically better than any of these high cunning examples Im giving, but is that really true?

  • Ive seen plenty of high IQ people who are useless in a situation that requires street smart and ability to recognize when theyre being hustled.

  • Since has rap, street life and having a big mouth anything to do with intelligence?

  • i never said that... it came from someone else, u nut... damn, let me quote it before u pop off at the mouth. the link to it -[therawness(dot)com/blacks-an­d-iq-part-3/]

  • my reasons for mentioning that is because IQ tests ae based on BOOK SMARTS, and NOT common sense. ppl who are book smart lack common sense and are sometimes naive... like u...

  • *are

  • You are saying that IQ tests are based on book smarts and not common sence. Okay so what do think a person should think about the IQ matter when you can see Africans running naked in the jungle living in mudhuts while white people building rockets to walk the moon. Can you really blame people for question if we really are equal. There are difference in intelligence every where in nature but when the subject comes to people its all the sudden impossible for people to accept.

  • LOL @ jungle joke... Interesting... BUT let me remind you there are African Americans who have also gone into space with Caucasians too. If I'm not mistaken, I think their names were... just to name a few, Guion Bluford & Mae C. Jemison. Um, since we're talkin' about intelligents. hmm, what about the 'forgotten geniuses' like Percey Julian? um, CEO of Channing Captial Management, Eric T. McKissack? does any those ring a bell? no, well look them up, child! LOL

  • *Intelligence

  • For each African american Scientist and Astronaut i could name dozens of white astronauts and hundreds of white scientists. It must be hard for you to depend on such a modest number of smart blacks.And its also funny that its always seems to occur in white countries and around white people. Why dont you mention any African scientist?. Once again watch the video and inhale the true nature of Africans. (WITH OUT) whites around them.

  • LOL, ooh, is that a challenge? not really because i own three african american encyclopedias that contains a lot of information. I study it like it's my bible, so no it won't be that hard to talk about some important african americans.

  • Black invention myths do not count. I said inventions not a patented type of the invention it self

  • hmm, there NOT myths - afraid of the truth i see.

  • Just to name an example. Garret Morgan are by information from afrocentrics the inventor of the traffic light. But what they forget to mention is that Garret Morgan only patented a type of the traffic signal. The first electric red-green traffic light were invented by an white police man named Lester Wire as early as 1912 in salt lake city.

  • Who was the first African American surgeon to perform heart surgery? Ooh, I know... Daniel Hale Williams was a pioneer in open heart surgery. In 1893, with the help of a surgical team, he saved a person who had been stabbed. Williams opened up the patient's chest, exposing the beating heart, and sewed the knife wound (which was a fraction of an inch from the heart). He did this without the aid of X-rays, blood transfusions, or anesthetics (numbing, pain-killing drugs).

  • Vivien Theodore Thomas was an African American surgical technician and operative surgeon who helped develop the procedures used to treat blue baby syndrome in the 1940s... hmm, if i'm not mistakin' i think they made a movie and book on him, and let me tell you... THEY ARE BOTH INTERESTING and INSPIRING!

  • With the help of a (white) surgical team you might add. This operation was performed on the sack that surrounds the heart. The first succesful surgery on the heart it self was performed by Ludwig Rehn of Frankfurt,Germany.

  • Elijah McCoy (1843 or 1844-1929) was a mechanical engineer and inventor. McCoy's high-quality industrial inventions (especially his steam engine lubricator) were the basis for the expression "the real McCoy," meaning the real, authentic, or high-quality thing.

  • If you want to talk about intellectual laziness, take a look at your own presumption that lower iq=inferior. Are Caucasians inferior to Asians because Caucasians have lower IQs, on average? Are Caucasians inferior to Jews because Caucasians have much lower IQs, on average? As a Black person, I certainly don't feel inferior to Caucasians, Jews, or Asians. So why should my group be inferior to a white person because THEY SAY (SOME) Blacks have lower IQs, on average, than Caucasians?

  • It depend on what asians you are talking about. Average IQ for East asians 105,South east asians 87, south asians 84

  • We all know people with book smarts but no common sense. But even apart from common sense there is quite a bit that IQ tests miss. For example, Andy Warhol scored 86 and Muhammad Ali 78. No one for a second would regard either man as lacking intelligence - yet according to the tests they do!

  • All Afrocentric people in america should watch this. So much for their believes of black superiority hahaha

  • lol, u stupid... because there THOUSANDS of different tribes w/ different cultural views/styles... that's just ONE TRIBE...

  • And all of them live and acts like animals

  • no, they don't... HAVE U BEEN TO AFRICA? or u concluded that from what hear/see in the media?

  • I have 2 friends whos been to Africa and they have the same story as the media. Have you been to Africa?.

  • YES! it's actually BEAUTIFUL. they have their own way of living, lol, come on, africa has it's rough parts just like every other country. doesn't mean u have to put them down. africa, for instance, there are videos unlike this that shows other tribes that don't do that, but they are still beautiful. i love my hertiage. plus, those ppl CHOOSE to wear them lip plates. they don't have to, but they do. there's an asian tribe that wear rings around their neck and it makes their neck long.

  • why aren't u botherin them? white people have Cannibalism... u don't see me pickin on every white person about them eatin people... and blacks are not superior, actually, NO RACE is superior because NO RACE is PERFECT. EVERY RACE has a flaw... NO RACE IS FLAWLESS...

  • when u made that first comment u must of ran into a black person who said blacks were superior? or do u hate black people period?

  • You of all people accuse white people of cannibalism?. What because of a few crasy white serial killers?. Till this day there are people in kongo eating people on a regular basis. Rebels forcing family members to eat each other. They kill little Albino children in Tanzania and uses their skin for what they call it (magic medicine). Africa 2008. Get your shit together

  • LMAO!!!! omg, wow, so full... animosity... do u have UR shit together? because i clearly used that as EXAMPLE the way u insulted us (blacks)... don't let me point out a LOT of craziness ur ppl have done, ok? because theres a LOT ur ppl have done wrong too.

  • White people goes forward for each decade.

    White people solves their problems.

    Blacks on the other hand waits for others to do it for them. But you cant help it, Your low IQ are to blame.

  • "White people solves their problems." LOL, no they don't. how come some of y'all commit sucide? how come some of y'all have eatin' disorders? how come some of y'all kids hit their mothers, and curse at them? hmm, solve ur problems right... no, i don't think so. i'm black and i don't need no one to solve my problems. i do everything myself. i support myself, and i do it w/o complainin.

  • Because solving problems are stressful. See future problems in your life are stressful. Blacks takes it day by day like in the animal kingdom. Ignorance is a bless

  • LMAO ur funny... sorry, if ur serious, but i don't know... maybe i got the giggles, or something... "Ignorance is a bless" i don't think it's a blessing to be ignorant... lol, no, i'm just playing i knew what u meant to say. and no, blacks don't... that's what u think because of what u see on television... have been around blacks like me?

  • *have u been around blacks like me?

  • "But you cant help it, Your low IQ are to blame." LOL, are u serious? oh, u are? my bad. well, hmm, my IQ isn't low; it's actually a 133... but who are u? i shouldn't have to prove myself to u. i work hard to get to where i am today. i'am a fatherless/motherless college student who makes straight A's & B's. i pay for my education out of my own pockets. i'am a PRIME example of blacks that the media, and ppl (like u) ALWAYS ignore. the one's who DO want to make SOMETHING out of themselves.

  • According to the genetic professors Richard Lynn from the university of Cambridge and John Phillippe Rushton from the university of western Ontario the average IQ for Europeans are 99, Same number for subharan Africans are 67. To be able to have an IQ at 133 you have to be extremely smart which makes me suspect a lie here. Since this topic are strict tabu in America. they grant you Affirmative action instead as an substitute for your low intelligence.

  • ROFLMAO, NO, DUH, SHERLOCK! it isn't a lie. why would i lie? if i was so-called stupid, why would i choose an IQ of 133? hmm, that's inane! u just want to say that because i'm black. and i'm not from AFRICA, dumbass. i never said i was from AFRICA, did i? i said i been to AFRICA; i'am a AMERICAN... like i said before i study and work hard, so i do not have a low IQ, or complain, u bigoted heffer! and it ur so SMART, then figure out how to get ur head out of ur ass and maybe we can talk like men.

  • But you have African blood-lines dont you?

    Its like they say. You can take the negroe out of the jungle but you can never take the jungle out of the negroe. African americans behavior in America are a living proof of this. African americans are famous all over the world for their arrogance,stupidity and crimes.

  • no, it's reverse... i have african blood, but africans call us BIRACIAL? hmmm, i wonder why... hmm, something u need to think about...

  • arrogance? ur the one who's arrogant... i'm not actin arrogant... i never said my race was superior... U THINK UR RACE IS SUPERIOR, not me... SO DON'T FLIP-THE-SCRIPT... u need to step down from ur throne, and take off ur rose-colored glasses because there is more to the world... u NEVER answered my question... HAVE U BEEN AROUND BLACKS LIKE ME?

  • And another thing.... Statistics lie. We are all individuals, and race has nothing to do with I.Q. I don't know why they (ppl like u) are obsessed with keeping these sorts of statistics based on race anyway.

  • What is disfigurement? what is Beauty?

    The French Government thought they were

    Gods!! and could inflict there beliefs and views on native tribes with out Question.

    Im glad lip plate enlargement of lips is

    finding a rebirth amongst westerners" lets

    see if the French Government will try and

    hault this new surge in lip enlargement.

  • I was just looking at some pictures of white people with lip plates. One persons "disfigurement" is another persons body art. I wouldn't go for lip plates, but I do plan on stretching my earlobes. It's amazing to see how big the plates on these women are.

  • So true Purplemutanas` for someone to call

    someone else disfigured? is their perception

    of Beauty.Beauty is such a personal thing to all of us, and we all have our own personal difinition of it.Yes white people are now enlarging their lips` its becoming more and

    more popular within the BME community also.

    Good luck on your ear lobes!im sure you already know how big you want them to stretch too.

  • They look like ducks.

  • thank God for the french!

  • Wow! Fascinating footage!

    Thanks for uploading it!

  • Fucking French Bastards!~

  • 1934? wow....this is great footage! It is the first time i have seen people with both lips stretched. Even the Mursi of Ethipia do not do that. Thanks for the video

  • I agree the eating process can be very difficult! but every extreme modification has a price` im sure chitlins wouldnt be missed by these Beauties anyway. Lip plates are just

    that plates to enlarge your lips.

  • Its amazing to hear that the French Government

    out lawed the custom of lip plate stretching?

    what right did they have to enforce their

    beliefs on others. I find these disk lip women

    to be Beautiful! even in this vintage footage.
