For Love or Money: Christopher Columbus and the Arawaks

[bohgirl11]

Why do pretty much all of the christopher Columbus YouTube videos have background music that nearly blocks out the voice of the speaker?

[see202uk]

Christopher Columbus = sum bag who cused the death of many incent people and stole thier goods and destroyed thier life! christianity is evil!!!

[JimmyeDallas]

The Vikings were actually the first Europeans to discover and colonize the Americas, and possibly even the Celts before them, but for some reason Americans (for long historical political reasons) still romanticize about a genocidal maniac who did the same thing a few centuries later.

[icecreambug1]

Who christopher clombus is a pariate all he wanted was gold he should of bein hanged he could of killed one my family members

[DTGRed]

Euproans aways tell lies about other peoples histroy and there own and yea they are the BIGGER MURDERER IN HISTROY !

[musicbuying]

The Arawaks Were Completely Driven To Death And Slave Labor, Columbus Slaughtered Most All Of Them By 1508, He Is Compared To Hitler In My Opinion & Yet We Celebrate Columbus Day.. His Genocide Of The Arawaks Was done In The Name Of The God & The Deity Of The Catholic Church. Bastard

[see202uk]

@musicbuying i totaly agree with you!

[purno1]

i so hate the shit they told us in school..fuck that shitty, fake system! Ask a real Arawak Indian what really happened, they omit alot of history that you school children will never know! :P

[1426305384950384]

"catalist for human freedom" how could he possibly be considered that considering the crimes he committed. the natives that were directly enslaved by his orders and the the enslavement system he created and placed on the taino native americans. In fact columbus made made a lot of money through the native American slave trade, even selling 9 and 10 year olds as sex slaves.

If anything he was the catislist of enslavement and set an example for other nations to copy and follow.

[chicofreako]

Colombus is a hero only to European white races that have no culture..and the people he took over knew the earth was round already...hes a hero to dumb empires that discovered nothing but genocide!

[1426305384950384]

@chicofreako Columbus and the Europeans knew the world was round. It was a generally accepted fact at the time. By the very definition of culture the Europeans had a culture.

I agree that Columbus isn't a hero but it isn't for the reasons you have stated here. Likewise I agree that at the time the Europeans countries actions were unacceptable and that they committed a genocide against the natives.

[ZhugeNaut]

I am Arawak. There was refugees in the cibao mountains who survived the Spanish. I am not full blood but I am not the only one either.

[lilsunnycloud]

He didnt unwillingly cause their death!

[kirokyukan]

How was Columbus supposed to be the only person who thought the world was round when Globes have been around since the 3rd century BCE? Ancient Greece established the sphericity of the Word yrs before Columbus. So if Europe had this knowledge why was Chris the only one convinced? Somethings fishy.

[tainojim]

In 1421 China already had an atlas of the world already proving that the world was round. Since the Europeans were trading with China, they already had the atlas though trading. Watch China 1421. Arawaks lived from Tampa Florida all the way to Peru. This information was taught in white mans school. It's all bogus.

[bimmerboybraydon]

hahah yeps in fact even the name caribbean for all the islands is wrong, caribbean was a tribe wich actually was deadly rivals of the arawaks and the caiquetios

[gizrich]

ur all wrong

[1426305384950384]

wow so false and one sided. You make it sound like the Arawak's were able to fight back, they weren't. They were slaughtered. Mothers killed there children so they wouldn't be born into the intense slavery they were.

Columbus demanded gold from them and if they did not get enough there hands were chopped off. There was also persistent raping of the locals.

you get the picture.

[THE1V]

fuck columbus

[MrTRINIAPACHE]

fuk columbus...arawak youth fi life!

[MrReggie816]

This is the dumbest thing i've ever heard. I can't believe how these 2 just waste their time, reading some fabricated bullshit from text books! Fucking heartless.

[chambagi]

catalyst of human freedom my butt

[ani1616]

the original hitler,love from sierra leone

[urbanandra]

freedom? que?

[delgj74]

And ur all jews who should have died! Dont worry hitler will return to finish the job smack that yamica off ur head ! U know why ? Bc history repeats itself ! Dont u jews have enough holidays who do u think u guys r cancer patients go fast loser

[billiondollarbaby973]

Columbus was a murderer, liar, and a cheat. He was a navigator. All of his navigating capabilities was because of moors. He was only in search of gold but created slaves. You are committing a crime towards true context of history by trying to justify the evilness and trechery of not only columbus but all europeans. You are performing the same practices of columbus by enslaving the uneducated people,s mind who hear this!! Columbus knew the moors were already in america and that he didnt discover

[PeteLogan69]

It's only a discovery if there was no people in the Americas already. The only thing Columbus discovered is that he was lost.

[johntomp1]

Where is your car parked? I am going to come and "discover" it. Your house too.

[hutchbee]

WRONGWRONGWRONG he was such a copy cat he heard others say the world was round, and it was his BROTHER who came up with the idea of sailing so to get to asia. Did you know he was arrested for hurting 25 of his coloniests, and was forced to return to spain? How about how he was a drug addict? He was nothing but a sick copy catting coward. and LEAF was the first to set foot in NA. dissapointing, dissapointing

[hannityforpres]

Columbus is a great hero. He discovered America for us. You guys quit speaking poorly of him.

[hutchbee]

haha NOOOO he didnt, Leaf did that.

[Riabunga]

@hannityforpres You cannot discover a place where people already lived. The Taino and Kalinago (Arawaks and Caribs) were the indigenous peoples of the Caribbean.

[hannityforpres]

@Riabunga You moron. What, do you think all the historians "forgot" that there were Indians here? No. We all know that. We call Columbus the discoverer because he was the first to place American lands on a map which was published by the rest of the world. the natives didnt do that.

[Riabunga]

@hannityforpres I will not get into a war of words with you neither will I call you names, or try to insult your intelligence as you seemingly think it fitting to do to someone who wishes to express their views. My views remain unchanged despite your 'wise' comment.

[Wabsirba]

Excellent work with the video and sticking with facts.

[avq5]

christophr colombus was a great american hero when he discoverd plimouth rock on

[unapologeticmind]

"Columbus belief that the Earth was round was very radical for his time"

LOL!

You should have studied more before making this video. Every learned medieval European knew that the Earth was round since way back and even the circumference was known to a high degree of accuracy since Eratosthenes calculationin 200 BC (<1% off). Columbus went against virtually everyone of his time in claiming that the circumference was smaller than it was - thus his error in thinking he had reached India...

[freakyangel631]

columbus was a killer who killed all of my arawak ancestors , fuck him he is a greedy bastard

[Amaru4ever]

There are still some Arawaks left. My maternal grandmother was of Arawak descent.

[afertyus1000]

@Amaru4ever interesting how do you feel that when poeple talk about jamaica they always add the reggae etc etc to it? a lot of blacks must think they were there forever and not brought over on slave ships

[Amaru4ever]

@afertyus1000

Well Reggae is part of Jamaican culture so it must be talked about. But alot of people don't know where their ancestors were from, so they cling to what they know

[afertyus1000]

@Amaru4ever yes i agrre but that is what annoys me about todays culture,they think its always been like that and many are proud for the wrong reasons,if i was black i wouldnt be proud to be jamaican cos i would know my ancestors were shipped there by the british

[bluenail90]

is it true that the arawaks were white?

[AtlasTitanX]

@bluenail90 No dude :S

[afertyus1000]

@bluenail90 they were copper coloured

[earcolos]

Hispanila is Haiti and Dominican Republic.

[AtlasTitanX]

@earcolos its Hispaniola

[earcolos]

@AtlasTitanX Sorry i misspelled that.

[AtlasTitanX]

@earcolos It's cool, it happens!

[earcolos]

@AtlasTitanX  are you haitian?

[AtlasTitanX]

@earcolos No I'm Puertorrican...

[sunnyblack15]

The vikings and the knight templers where 100 years first to the usa before Columbus. The Spanish finance Columbus and the knight templers where behind it which there motive was land and slavery. The knight templers are now the free masons which are doing the same stuff today in a different way.

[pablo1079]

So many negative comments.. The dead are indeed dead!! For the record Mr. Columbus was not even spanish, and he was not searching for the americas or the new world... C'mon guys read something!! And.. Grow UP!!

[pablo1079]

N ice... Good bit of history, but the Arawak tribe was a huge nomadic one. The hispanola family tribe was gone but there were and are still many Arawak alive today. I am the result of one of them. You have done some really great research, and I think you could go farther.... So ask more questions.....

[bigvig06]

this country is fucked and racist an built on stealing other countrys cultures, thats english 4 u not spanish were just smarter people thats why they hate fuck um suck are fat dicks mane hahahaha

[hannityforpres]

@bigvig06 Shut up. Columbus was a great man and explorer. he found America for us. it is the greatest country in the world, and will survive even though Obama is trying to destroy it.

[1980vince]

@hannityforpres columbus was a white devil.

[afertyus1000]

@bigvig06 spanish were the first who took slaves from africa there dumbfuck

[bigvig06]

man those people were fuckin uncivilized an savages the spanish made them the beautiful look at the woman look at how gorgeous and fuckin beautiful they are the race mixing was the best idea man indian,black,spanish is a beautiful mix and the food they make today is bomb, there all beautiful people and countrys today with more culture then this piece of shit country USA

[1980vince]

@bigvig06

[bigvig06]

you deal with all those native americans patchee and cherokee fucks dnt know if its spelled rite but fuk it man get with it

[bigvig06]

because people have read his original writing and journals and he only took over the caribbeans which is today called cuba, puerto rico,an some of central america, el salvador fuckin dumb rookies i gotta teach u dumb white fucks every thang suckin the black mans dick because you dont wanna look like a racist, if anything italians and spaniards have to deal with all this criticism not you english and irish fuckin white people

[afertyus1000]

@bigvig06 arawaks were first in jamaica then spanish then british who imported all the blacks there to work,they should be ashamed to be there and come from slaves,i know i would be

[afertyus1000]

@bigvig06 africans were slaves brought to jamaica by the british and spanish you the racist one!!!!!!!! irish are kings

[bigvig06]

none of us know what happened were such a fucked up country with a fucked up country they were violent people 2 we cant say they were very peaceful people when we say he took out all indians we sound fuckin dumb because he only started trying to take over the carribeans, what about the french ,spanish, portugese,and english they took over north america he didnt do any of that im sure because he did not write about that in his journals

[VINCEV1980]

whats an arawak are you retarded.

[itisaduck]

Was Columbus an evil man? Not by 15th-century European standards. He was a devout Christian, persistent in his endeavors and fully loyal to the Spanish crown --three attributes that were needed at the start of the New World era-- but by today's standards he was amazingly indifferent, callous and cruel toward the natives of the New World....Follow the NVA around in Vietnam, the Taliban around in Afghanistan. The FBI at the Waco, Texas attack and you would see unbelieveable cruelty and murder.

[itisaduck]

Your progressive teachers with a Communist distructive agenda failed to mention keys facts. Colombus did lose it but he was also sent home in chains and ultimately died in shame and poverty. He was not resurrected as euro discoverer until 1791, and now we wack him again. You note it's called America, not Columbus. A great sailor, poor govenor and extremist Christian. He was really rough on Spanish civilians and not just indigenious. Injun's were paid in gold which they used to buy euro products.

[rohittee1]

After his conquest of the Caribbean he lived out his old age with a substantial amount of money in his pocket, he did not live in poverty, there may have been shame although how the hell could we know that. Most History books in classrooms either sugar coat every god damn thing or they only tell part of the history and fill in what they do not know for sure with dramatic flare. The whole "shame and poverty" thing was definitely dramatic flare

[itisaduck]

@rohittee1, I have indigenious blood. I am not defending anyone's bad behavior Native or Euro. On first voyage things went well and Columbus left 39 men on Hispanole which the Arawaks killed before Columbus returned. Ultimately, Columbus was returned home in chains. Then on his 4th voyage he was not even allowed to land in Hispanola because of his behavior. His ships sank and he was strandled in Jamaica. Gov of Hisp would not send a ship to save him. he barely was able to get back to Spain.

[itisaduck]

@itisaduck, I watched 500 Nations and as a historian I can tell you the Indians of today painted a false picture in it. The Natives traded with Europe. Arawaks were paid in gold to mine Hispanola then spent the gold on Euro goods that made their lives better. Ultimately they fought the euros to a stand still and tready. Monsters come in all colors. There are plenty of Arawaks alive today.

[itisaduck]

Columbus died unhappy and in great pain, Joint screaming, eyes bleeding. Gout! He lost all profits from discovering the New World. Appealled for most of his life but never got the money. He was so upset he demanded to be buried in the chains he wore home after his 3rd voyage then died of a heart attack. Hardly a great life of ease. Remember people he was arrested in Hispanola and lost credit and the 10% profit from the Spainish. On his fourth voyage his ships sunk. Hispanola Gov refused to help.

[itisaduck]

I have Indian blood. After all is said and done I am glad Columbus showed up and opened up trade. Small Pox did arrive via euro/africans, but Carb, Central and S American Malaria killed? Columbus people and it is still one of the worst diseases known to man. Incurable! Also, on Columbus first vogage he we got? along fine as long as Columbus was suspect of being a God. He blew town leaving 39 men which we slaughtered then piled their remains in a heap. He returned lost it, the rest is History.

[rohittee1]

Your glad hes responsible for the genocide of the entire Arawak people? And the Native Americans were extremely healthy because they bathed so they were never sick, the Europeans did not bath or bathed very little because they believed nudity was indecent in all forms. Because the Natives didn't build up an immunity to anything they were hit hard when Columbus came.

[itisaduck]

@rohittee1, as for disease it went both ways. The Euros fell to malaria which is still uncureable. I invaded a foreign country in 1966 and got all kinds of diseases. My friend stilll has Malaria. You can't get rid of it. Also we now have AIDS via the Natives of Africa now here in my country. Yes, small pox killed Indians..Oh well..The plague wiped out much of Euro...The history of all men is murdering other peoples and other tribes.

[itisaduck]

@rohittee1, Here punch in a 21st century Chief of the Arawak that is no more, "Arawak indian chief Daniel Gomez" and here him say he doesn't use his computer. Seems very alive. Stupid but very alive and Arawaks still digging gold for the Euros. All the Indians of the USA are still here. Me and my wife are still here. I was in Northern Mexico and down in the Yucatan. Met Aztecs, Myans and others. Hmmm! Now the Anatasia are gone..but before the euros. Murdered and eatten by Aztecs.

[itisaduck]

@rohittee1, Things uou never learned in school! Did you happen to notice that we live in America and not Columbia. That is because Columbus was a no body after he went home is disgrace. He was not raised up until 1797 after the creation of the United States of America. So he had a 200 year run and he is back to asshole status by a browning US population and self defeating white population. Works for me, how about you?

[itisaduck]

@rohittee1, If your white your not right according to Columbus haters... Columbus Day is now Native Day. In California late 2009 Columbus Day is no longer a paid holiday and I have been informed that the aztecs of Mexico, Communists, no less, are going to take California. They picked Los Angeles as their capital. I'M NOT KIDDING!

[ironboogz]

they want you to beleave.. arawaks are all gone just liek the indians so people cant claim legal rights to land,, this is what makes me hate europe, even though im hald europian,, fuclk columbus he can suck my left nut..

[jazzgaara14]

Uhh..The Arawak aren't extinct I'm like a quarter Arawak,so I'm like super-rare,Colombus was a fucktard he killed most of my people,so I hate that stupid SOB for ever discovering my land,but whatever.

[peelthis]

well done video

[braveseaeagle]

actually theres some pakuri arawak of lokono of the 6 clans ( now its 3 clans left) r still survived in south america and some within carribeans that r already mixed with Tainos in our bloods along with spaniards and some africans (arawakans and Taino people r related)

[bigcree]

Cristobol Colon aka Colubmus was financed by a Marrano Jew originally by the name of Louis Panatel Santagelo. Santangelo worked for King Fernando of Aragon.

[bigcree]

The Open Seas at that time were rife with Pirates. Colon was seeking a shorter Trade Route to the Carthay Empire now known as 'India'. Upon his 'arrival' in what is now called Dominica, he thought he had encountered another variety, of 'Indians'. Thus the gigantic MISTAKE and MISNOMER of calling the Indigenous Peoples "Indians". It is a MISNOMER and in no uncertain Terms should be uttered in describing Pnaci People. Indians are from India. Period.

[sherroddean]

Columbus' voyage was an extension of the catholic christian war and the war of african and arab moors. get real..............

[sherroddean]

Columbus only learned what he did about map making and sailing the known world when the moors where expelled and murdered in spain. Stop spreading a false doctrine. there were african moorish settlements and ports around the world before even know the earth was round. in 1492 columbus sailed the ocean blue but the moors were expelled from spain too..........

[AAAAkuuuu]

Mass suicides?! So they tied their hands behind their own backs, and jumped into a noose over the fire?!

This was genocide on the second largest scale ever.

[Seiku]

Yes mass suicides. Some were killed by the Europeans but most were forced into labor to mine gold. Those that escaped some would commit suicide. They would prefer death than to suffer a miserable life being chased by the conquistadors.

It's not hard for people to hang themselves but I'm guessing others might have helped prepare the hanging and when finished killed themselves by stabbing or jumping from a cliff.

[OmarizOnly1]

columbus was a murderer!!!! Fuckin idiot....

[mikehuckaby]

@OmarizOnly1 exactly... and the natives did not think anything about him was divine. this is dumb ass brainwashing from text books.

[AngelxKissesx]

But both France and England turned him down on the offer. The reason why Portugal ended up rejecting his offer was because Bartholomeu Dias had crossed around Africa and foward to Asia. So Portugal now had a path to Asia and wasn't interested anymore about a western route to Asia. But Spain was interested in a western path to Asia.

[AngelxKissesx]

Originally Christopher Columbus wanted to offer his plans and work for Portugal. But King John the second's experts rejected his idea. So had also offered his plans to the Monarchs of France and England.

[WiccanKingDagda]

Christopher Columbus is of Greek ancestry.

[lyfe1zruff]

wrong..italian ancestry

[WiccanKingDagda]

Genoan citizen, but Greek ancestry.

[AngelxKissesx]

Wrong he was Genoese.

[brian100pd]

... are they saying arawaks or earwax???

[egon55]

if it wasn't for columbus you would still have feathers in your ass

[lyfe1zruff]

whats wrong with having feathers is ur ass?????

[NafeesLACC]

anyone know the name of this song?

Thanks

[txus4sho]

i am arawak/carib and we did not think they were divine!

[lyfe1zruff]

stfu your puerto rican!

[txus4sho]

ya mama is a puerto rican!

[vincevince801]

fact 80% of natives have died with in 60 years of the europians arrival.

That is the bigest genocide in human history.

[clevermonkeytees]

how do you dicover a populated land/?he is a crook/murderer/rapist/trash

[retsiembrU]

Columbus is the Evil ,

its not normal what he didt

he is the greatest mass murderer ,

a unhuman being,

he is lower then scum like A. Hitler and all other nerds who battled in the name of their imaginairy God,

what a sick pathetic trick

cursed are they who embrace C. Columbus

[NauticalFILMS]

Did xenophobia columbus actually mass murder native Americans, women and children?

They burn kids in fire ate them as for food. Cannibalism.

[angelsmagikalworlds]

who says the Arawaks thought the spanish where divine, who hunted their own as witches and got riches for the church in the name of GOD true barbarians

[shooshoobob1]

it was the mayans who thought the spaniards were divin cause the mayans god just happened to be pale and beared, so the spanish were just in the right place at the right time

[Parable7]

HE used RELIGION to decieve the NATIVES.PURE EVIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[retsiembrU]

@ Parable7:

like that sick fuck Donald "Duck " Rumsfeld, he use bible phrases,

the sick twisted motherfucker,

they abuse the name of God,

Hell is waiting

[Parable7]

The HELL with COLUBUS may he burn in ETERNAL FIRE.

[marylous8]

I'm proud of having arowak (as it is called here)blood in me,eventhough we're also mixed with european we as Arubans still have more arowak features than european.

[gotiniq89]

Can somebody tell me how the song, that sounds be told during the film clip?

[deathangelof48]

fuck columbus hes nothing but a old dead fuck with commpess he killed the natives!!!!!

[arizzle4sho]

Columbus completed in white Hitler should've completed.

[CSVaze]

Columbus contributed to a genocide of a whole race of people. Abused people and made a slave trade this guy is a true Bastard, He Didnt discover shit Arawaks were all ready there living in peace he brought disease and war, After the Spaniards overthrew the Moors in Spain and then Plagurised everything and said it was theres. Tsk Tsk The Laws of MAAT Reign Supreme always and forever.

[muptahu24]

those people in the pictures were not how they looked, the arowaks that were sold as slaves were called negros in cardova, the huts depict a mandenka mali stile and the dress r ritualistic, this history is lies and made up

[CSVaze]

So are you saying the arawaks werent descendants of the native Americans who descended from the Olmecs who were dark skin??? Im intrigued as everything ive found on the Arawaks says the same thing???? Im after the Reality of the affair??? If you have anything books to read etc id love to hear your view.

Hotep

[muptahu24]

the arawaks were descended from the olmecs, so were some of the so called natives. the olmecs called mali mandenka's from thamud and ad, 2 kingdoms that were destroyed, te washitaw were already here b4 the olmecs, then moor came w/ abubakari and mansa musa. all part of the amexam empire which included tripoli, from the halls of montizuma to tripoli. thats all of northeast africa from iraq, to yemen to ethiopia all the way over to the pacific

[afertyus1000]

@muptahu24 fair enough yes i googled it all and its easy to find out but they were not afrikan! all people originally came from gondwanaland anyway if you go back far enough then they were isolated when the land mass split up

[muptahu24]

@afertyus1000 THEY WERE THE SAME PEOPL AS THE PEOPLE U CALL AFRIKAN, THERE WAS NO CONTINENT CALLED AFRICA UNTILL THE 1900'SAFTER WWI.. AFAR IKH EN IS A TITLE OF A DEGREE FOR TH RIGHTS OF PASSAGE TA INO ISNT A TRIBE BUT THE NAME OF THE LAND THAT WAS REMEINING AFTER ATLANTIS SUNK AND HATSHEPSUT[INO-FRET] TOK CONTROL- WE THE SAME, STOP LETTING COLUMBUS DEVIDE U, THERE ARE TRIBES IN AFRICA THAT GOT STRATE HAIR ALSO STOP BELIEVE IN TARZAN

[afertyus1000]

@muptahu24 OBVIOUSLY YOU ARE AN WRONG,TYPING IN CAPS,THEY WERE NOT AFRICAN BUT RED SKINNED INDIAN TYPE OF PEOPLE COLUMBUS WAS A WANKER WHO SPREAD DISEASE THERE BUT ST BRENDAN OF IRELAND FIRST DISCOVERED AMERICA BEFORE COLUMBUS AFRICANS WERE SHIPPED THERE BY THE ENGLISH

[Username01909]

I'm arawak, we're not black now so it's unlikely that we resembled Africans then either. im not saying we're not descended from olmec peoples (i don't know if we are) but the depictions are somewhat accurate although our skin is a tiny bit darker and a bit more reddish as is common in many Amerindian tribes in that area, which may well be due to being partially descended from olmec peoples *shrugs*

[muptahu24]

u have to understand that how u look now was after mesagenation[tieing into the vine]by the french, dutch,spanish, portugese etc. so arawaks were the same kin as afrika. look at the dolls of the ta ino arawaks of wich i am. those dolls depict moors. aeawaks was called that by others we called ourselves moors, and were under the moorish empire that gave the euros e pluribus unum

my fathers grand parents were pure ta ino. look at the maroons of jamaica, they r origional arawaks.

[Username01909]

i done some research now and it seems that both the olmecs and arawak cultures consisted of both races, black and red skin. the moors however have nothing to do with American history. as for mesagenation all dna studies have shown very little european dna if any within arawakan communities. although there is significant arawakan dna in afro-Caribbean populations.

[muptahu24]

indiginous peoples of the americas called them selves moor muurs. the french records that the people called themselves moors. THEY NEVER CALLED THEMSELVES INDIANS, NO TRUE NATIVE WOULD. the people that columbus sold as slaves the ta ino men and women were listed as negros named ali and other arabic names. why? we were part of the malian empire

u know like khan mansa musa. came to america as its empire. DO U REALY BLIEVE THESE PYRAMID BUILDERS CALLED OLMEC WHO WERE MALIANS LIKE MANSA MUSA,

[muptahu24]

like mansa musa were primitive people who didnt smelt metal, yet had gold chains and fine silk. the gave 2 columbus who was cristobal colon, not columbus. THERE WAS NO1 NAMED COLUMBUS PEOPLE. as for the arowaks they r no different than west arficans. al utla= atlan ta. or atlan, the fabled atlantis. america was called mu laan by the africans, the albion caucasions thought the earth 2 b flat. his reality was the caucus mountains. he still discovering things2 day.

[afertyus1000]

@muptahu24 they were not the same kin as africa its a different continent if you go back far enough we are all of the same kin

[muptahu24]

@afertyus1000 ah i beg to differ,infact the garafun, ta ino, igneri[nigeri] the sebo[sheba] were and all are the same as what we cal afrikans 2day, if u dont know that, then u were discovered by columbus, this video should be an insult to any true so called arawak. this is colorable british emperialism his-story, and u are to ashamed to be who your forefathers were... they are the exact geno and pheno type as mali.. infact the arawaks are the vai people who took to the waters called atta bey[vai

[afertyus1000]

@muptahu24 they were copper coloured arawaks from guyana the spanish killed them all and then imported africans

[muptahu24]

@afertyus1000 they never killed us all, we may have left from the bigger islands but we just went to other islands, i am a copper colored ta ino, like richard pryor, and most black and afrikhan, or olive color, copper is dark skinned peple. i am from the turtle island, and our zemmi/djemmi which is an afrika word, is atta bey, note the moorish name.. arawaks come from the vai who called the telum by the dogons, budhoe of st croix, the muroons of jamaica, the garafun etc.

[afertyus1000]

@muptahu24 copper color isnt black! richard prior had some white ancestors that is why he isnt negroid race like nigerians somalians,ivory coast etc etc i am talking about the slaves brought there african ones,there were no afrikans before this there only in africa

[skyz184]

no we are not black and the arawak of the caribean DID NOT COME FROM THE OLMEC, why do ppl do this ,make stuff up as they go by,,anyway the arawak of the carribean came from the arawak/kanila of south american tropical rain forests, hell there are still tribes there that speak arawakan and identify themselves as arawak, please dont listen to these yups it makes me sick i swear!, here bro watch this vid for example ppl who stll call themselves arawak

watch?v=cVHebkw3w9c

[afertyus1000]

@skyz184 i read they came from guyana

[Leondre121]

christopher murdered my moms people and his ppl wiped most of them out with thier filthy deseases

[personkid20]

It is in his onw words and logs christobol was a portuguese jew, as most if not all were complicit in not only the extermination of indigenous peopls but also the slave institution in which several million Blacks(not the under reported 12 mil) were slain..

just a matter of time when we people of color are avenged..it's already begun

[wheatbread87]

this video was bs. he didnt unwittingly do shit

[milleziano]

cristopher colombus is nothing but a damn faggot and a degenerate low life scum of the earth.

[personkid20]

also this christobol pediphile(colombus) with help from other pedophiles(xeminos, delas casas, the pope and many others many jewa as well, decided to extent their pedophilic deviant white madness to the Afrikan race due to the fact ther pretty much liquidated the population of the peaceful indigenous people of what the spawn of these demons nowdays call amerikkka

[personkid20]

500 years later and whites still have trouble telling the truth. "Arawaks commites suicide?"..

No the were hung from racks by the white devilz. Christobol colon(colombus) a jew, new nothing of navigation and never got off the boat, due to his not only being afraid but his liking of young arawak boy and girls for his sexual conquest as well as his deception of spain and portugal. These conveniences of his deviance made it possible for this bastard to claim "discovery"...

[TheVeganHere]

I didn't know, but how is it relevant, whether Columbus was Jewish or not? Actually don't answer that question because in this context it is not relevant at all.

[iRANDOMx3]

my friends and i chose this for our topic too for history day, but idk if ours was as good as this.

[personkid20]

very relevant s these so-called jews scream about a supposed holocaust(the original definition of genocide was soley destruction of politikan, racial, or cultural. But jew(ish) is neither any of the above it's a stolen form of spirituality from Afrikans in Ethopia and ancient Kemet(egypt). Yet those who claim "jew" not only subscribe to theis deception but also their prominence in pogroms of ALL people of color

well you know what? its all about my taino family.

[Username01909]

the arawaks were wiped out? as an arawak this idea seems quite retarded to say the least. thousands migrated (fled) to the coastal regions of south America (namely the Guyana's and Venezuela) alot of the villages still speak arawak ffs. there's also many survivors from the carib and taino tribes aswell. also if i remember right most Puerto Rican's are descended from the taino tribe.

[spongebobLOVER3000]

this is true but they are not any real(traditional) Arawack tribes left

[Username01909]

that's because Europeans forced us to give up our traditions for Christian ones, we're lucky we still managed to hold on to our own language. what the video should of said is that most arawak traditions were wiped out via oppression as the arawak people themselves are still very much alive.

[AtlasTitanX]

@Username01909 I'm puertorican and I can tell you that there no such thing as a Tainos here no more, sure there wannabe tainos but were all mixed and most of us are white of European decent!

This bullshit belongs in only one place and that place is not in existence. Lies are devils. this is a lie. lies take you to hell.

[TheVeganHere]

When Columbus arrived the Arawaks rushed to the shore to greet them with arms full of riches to share with their new visitors. Columbus wrote back to the Queen and told of these peaceful people that can easily be used for slavery and riches. On subsequent visits back to the Arawaks it was Columbus' policy that if they didn't have arms full of riches, to chop their hands off. It is such an absurdity that in the US we celebrate this butcher with a holiday.

[desi1252004]

I agree with you 110% I also agree with President Chavez in his belief of not celebrating that murderer's day! It was GENOCIDE!!!!!!! I'm happy that in the Dom. Rep and in our culture there are still many traces of our Taino heritage and we are damn proud of it!
