Educate, Elevate, Articulate, and don't Hesitate to build yoour children out of the madness and back into something naturally ours Faraha Ya Kwanzaa

[davisismail1comcast]

If a nation or race of people start identifying BACK to their heritage, it is a threat to white so-called dominance and the value sytems that they but in place, so it is only natural that they hate Afro- American who are re-discovering who they are and what THEY value. Further more it does not matter how positive it is to whites, or to highly ignorant blacks, it is a threat to all things white. It changes your dynamic and it changes your paridigm, and that my friends is power incarnate. cont..

I like draethegreat logic in understanding the biased towards Africans and others ethnic peoples of color in America. I will add this to his intelligent critique, if you look at europeans early History(Roman Conquest) the catalyst of there strength was the absorbing of those people culture that they raided or defeated. Those from those traditions whose sprits were broken gave information and there traditions to the Romans. If a Nations of people who identify BACK to their origins cont..

In respect for the language of "da hood", I want to wish you a Very Muthfuckin' merry Kwanzaa.

I've had the good fortune of meeting many different types of Christians. Some are fundamentalist, some are racist, some try to practice, some are metaphysical, and others are theoretical. There are even a few religious groups and people (like the ba'hai) who are multi-religious. I have learned, it's sometimes help to not "stereotype" all Christians.

It is often helpful to share your beliefs and experiences like: "I believe" or many members of my church believe (or express...)

[belladeballe]

On the surface, all of this sounds good, but is it really true, especially for those of us who KNOW the truth of how Jesus Christ came into the world to save all of us, regardless of race? Be careful. This movie teaches principles that run counter to what Christ taught. We cannot "save" ourselves. We believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, he is the only way. Christ is for all of us not just the white man. Do not worship the 'false god' of ancestry. We are one race..HUMAN, created by God.

shut the hell up, and quit hatin. it's constant judgement. black people can't do sh*t without someone trying to call them racist. go to hell. in gasoline draws, honestly. Europeans steal and kill and name everything, go talk about that, don't worry about what happens here. this isn't the space for that.

[thekwanzaasong]

love this video....check out my video ok Support Kwanzaa

[peasah2005]

African people shouldn't be afraid to be with and to connect within our true principles.

African people have a voice onto us, a value that represents us and a

empowerment that defies us.

Kwanzaa is a special time for Africans to thank our ancestors and to continue where they left off.

[br01albrt]

What is Kwanzaa?

[shoobedoorocketship]

@br01albrt

just google it

[madiana101]

@br01albrt smh... lol search it:)

[IdnahT]

I don't ever understand why people hate black people so much. Like black people have done no crimes of humanity to other races but yet they hate us so much. Racists should sit and ask themselves why, "why do i hate these people so much?" Is there a purpose for the hate and what are you achieving by it? is your life any better for it? do you get more joy or make more money out of it? is it really hate or is it fear? well if its fear, face it and get over it!! move on racists, live and let live!!

[mnlkthms]

@IdnahT

STRANGE BUT TRUE EVERY SINGLE TIME I COME ON YOUTUBE AND LOOK UP ANYTHING DEALING WITH MY CULTURE SOMEBODY WHITE COMES ALONG STARTING SHYT. I KNOW EVERY WHITE PERSON AINT RACIST BUT IT'S WEIRD.MAYBE THEIR PARENTS TEACH THEM OR MAYBE THEY JUST NEED SOMETHING TO BITCH ABOUT.BUT IT'S REALLY GETTING OLD.I STILL CAN'T FIGURE WHAT'S THEIR ISSUE AND PROBABLY NEVER WILL

[shoobedoorocketship]

@mnlkthms

unfortunately, its not just youtube, its everywhere on the net. especially where there is unmoderated comments. they treat black topics like toilets and dump their projected issues on the thread. only way to really deal with it is to disable the youtube comments and invite people onto a site that is moderated, that would stop a lot of the worst of it. 

[davisismail1comcast]

Fact their are many more historical accounts of white cannibalism, than there is of black cannibalism, fact the aryans were cannibals, the saxxons, vandals , ghauls, and viking barbarians all praticed it. Lets bring it current, Eastern Russia has a fad that they borrowed from there western cousins of goth and satanic madness were they mutilate and eat each other flesh. As a matter of fact, accounts of African cannibalism is a recent phenomenon, and has only been discovered in two countries.

[davisismail1comcast]

Further I might add some scholars are also saying it was introduced by foreign invaders into the African continent. The bases or thesis for this argument was that caucasoids(whites) come from harsh artic conditions which makes them aggresive predators so when there is very little flora or fauna in exterme cold conditions they would resort to hunting each other for food. Once they were exposed to the rest of the known world they brought there savage barbaric yet cunning ways, and here we are.

[TheJomogogo]

@davisismail1comcast

blah blah blah more afrocentric whitie made niggers bad bullshit sell that crap to some other coon who wants to believe you sambo

[davisismail1comcast]

Sale you? now thats a caucasoid concept if I ever knew one. I do not have to sale you anything, can you refute it. No you can not, you cant refute facts See clowns like you are so predictable when challenged by real scholarship. be a man and go learn something and stop the envious rage or should i say fear of people of African decent . If not than go start another Columbine, or Oklahoma City bombing, Yuna Bombing, James Town you get the picture ,real beast of destruction.

[TheJomogogo]

@davisismail1comcast

LOL oh yeah as we all know everywhere the black man goes things just get better don't they?

We're done here chimp now go to nigtown and keep looking over your shoulder, your "brothers" might like something you own.

[davisismail1comcast]

Yea laugh because thats about the sum of your existence. Like I said, bow out gracefully calcified pineal. You dont have shit to say intelligently to this subject, because you do not possess the scholarship. Now who is the chimp fragile pale relic

[geneofisis]

Saw this on TVONE today-check your local listings for it again people.

[copperwaxwing]

who ever made this video ..thank you :)

[Sincere4Ever1]

Loving It!! Just Loving It!! We are truly Blessed to have her, and she should definitely be cherished!

[Sidepocket2600]

I do have problems with the Egyptian images used in this video, even though I love the holiday and what it's trying to accomplish. Never mind that to be an Egyptian was used in the same way as being an American, racial Egyptians were not black. Nor were they were White. They were (and are) Egyptians. Culturally and geography wise they are apart of Africa but culturally, Egyptians would look at Kwanzaa and wonder what barbaric rituals the "Nubians" were doing.

[tellknozwho]

And what History class did you take this from because If you actually even read a book you would know that Egyptians get many of their ideas from Nubia. Such as the house of Per-ah a symbol on Nubian PYRAMIDS that predated the Egyptians for hundreds of years. Initially Egyptians were BLACK prior to Eurpoean encounters suchas Greece & Rome. Who came to Africa for knowledge ina Place called KUSH. Please dont make me laugh...

Your statement is purely ignorant and may even be racist. Piss Off

[FABAOtv]

Don't mind such people as they are devilishly foolish and weak. They wan't to make others the same by trying to deny history but just as the Chinese have done and are showing us, we can crush them simply by knowing who we are.

Kemet was what the ancient Egyptians called what came to be named Egypt by the Greecs and the Arabs.

KEMET!

Other people also called it Ethiopia. In fact the whole of Africa was known as Ethiopia, Nubia or Kemet by foreigners.

[KinshipWAMBaGhanaba]

no. an Egyptian would wonder how currency in Angola(dollar:: usa, kwanza::angola) became a symbol of ...in America, realy, that's what they'd ask

[draethegreat]

barbaric rituals the "Nubians ? umm yeah about that

No one knows what race the original Egyptians were but The Nubians did conquer Egypt under its 25th Dynasty. The Kushite Empire or Twenty-Fifth Dynasty of Egypt Black Nubian Rulers: Piye, Shebitku, Taharqa and Tantamani reigned in part or all of Ancient Egypt from (760 BC to 656 BC) Fact! So whats your problem with them using the Egyptians images again?

[figebornu]

Mother said they'd be jealous. Don't hate Black people because of our roots fool.

[silents08]

@Sidepocket2600 its all black history

[TheSonsOfLight]

You know zero about Egypt and its African Traditions. Your opinion is based on your mis education of who Egyptians were. They were racially the same people as the Nubians. Nubia is Upper Egypt. Do some research thank you.

That clip alone was uplifting! I got to find this doc. I just found it by chance, IF THE MAKERS ARE READING, PROMOTE BETTER!!

'draethegreat', 'chainsawmurderface2'... i appreciate ur sober and concise replies/comments, far from ignorant, hard to argue with and to the point; good representation on this world stage!

Peace.

[draethegreat]

if someone native american had native american pottery in there home it will be seen as racial

if someone asian had asian pottery it will be seen as racial

if someone black had african pottery it will really be look at as racial

but if someone white had european pottery it will be viewef as non racial just western culture or they just like it???

think about it! if someone white study european history they will be call historian if

blacks study africa will be call afrocentric

[maryray10]

tellem!! Drae n Chain.

[coachnews]

nice one

[afrochick1]

Wonderful, I can't wait to see it!

[chainsawmurderface2]

(Part 3) The blacks to whom you are referring to, the ones who hate whites, hate white people because they represent the tyranny within society and to them whites are effigies of their oppression. Now, I am by no means condoning black hatred for white people, but I understand why hatred for whites exists in SOME black people. The relationship between Kwanza and blacks is no different from Christians with Christmas, the Irish with St. Patricks Day, or most Americans with Independence Day.

[collease123]

who gives a shyt those whites have been for centuries from the day when Buddhist were called Brahman they have been a tyrrant.

[chainsawmurderface2]

(Part 2) It is true that there are blacks who hate whites, but to make such a brusque, brash claim that there are more racist blacks in the United States then whites is a grossly erroneous comment. Besides, black hatred toward whites is more so spurred on from the subjugation and depravity that blacks suffer as a result from white supremacy, the foundation for white racist beliefs.

[chainsawmurderface2]

(Part 1) Jiffy, my dear poor Jiffy. How can it possibly be wrong for a group of people to take some joy in their heritage? Granted, I understand what you are saying about blacks isolating themselves from the community, this is partially true. However, what you fail to realize is that if it were not for the perpetual racist hate for blacks in American society there would never be any need for such separation in society- past, present, or future.

[Jiffylust]

Whether you people realize it, in today's culture blacks are more racists towards whites than whites are towards blacks. Another thing you might not realize is that I am black. However you might consider me to have been raised I a white household considering I had two parents and both of them had jobs. Its not my fault I don't buy in to all this made-up culture like Kwanzaa or the stupid/horrible culture which for an example I will give rap.

[draethegreat]

"Jiffylust" do know what elitism mean? check your self..

i listen to rap "not 50 cent crap" but lupe fiasco, mos def, nas, talib kweli rappers that would had made Emily Dickinson say damn and make your senior english teacher quit.

Girls Gone Wild, American Pie, MTV Jack Ass and etc are white things with nothing to do with blacks, but blacks are the only one who get sterotype "in today's culture blacks are more racists towards whites than whites are towards blacks" you watch Fox news

[Jiffylust]

Kwanzaa, it is so ignorant. Black people want to be equal and united with other cultures, which they should be, but they are the ones making up thing to segregate themselves. If any other culture had their own TV channel, radio station, or festival/holiday they would be racist, but when black people do it it is "celebrating culture".

[RevolutionaryINK]

The spanish have several t.v. channels and All of the rest of the channels are White/european. All holidays are White/european, and most radio stations are White/european. What are you talking about? You think White/europeans should have it all, right? Then you come to this video to spout your racist rethoric. Not surprised.

[brinny776]

Go Rev!! I knew you were going to respond so wisely. lol thanks for sending me this.

[RevolutionaryINK]

No doubt! It is funny how the Racists find OUR videos before we do. It is like it is their JOB!!!! They wont stop going hard! So neither will I!!!!

[Jamalalsomali]

IM so proud of u guyz

[SoulByDzyne]

[miika2]
