Be proud of your African heritage. I am Navajo and very proud of my heritage.

One thing you'll notice about people who are indigenous to the land they live on is their deep connection to their land. You find this globally with indigenous peoples... when you look at black americans do you see their connection to their land or do you see people that are completely disconnected not only from nature but from eachother? I bet if these people visited Africa they would understand what it is they're missing but the thing is most of the people that fall for these narratives have never travelled.

WABOS. African Americans claiming Native and deny their African heritage/DNA. Lowkey weird 😅

[Zapp]

It sounds like narcissistic or sociopathic behavior for someone to completely push a whole people aside like the natives with no care or concern of how they feel having their identity and culture taken over as it they aren’t people.

[knowyourself]

It is really a shame how as black people in America how we deny our ancestors saying we are not Africans smh... Self hate is a hell of a drug, but self love is hell of a cure

I'm a native American ya black African now Americans need to stop with those lies that this is ya land this is indian land ya came from Africa. American is Aztec indian and Mayan indians and incas indians land 🙄

Exactly! I'm happy to see someone addressing this stuff. Let's celebrate our roots and every group of our human family. Let's not start telling crazy narratives about ourselves like the colonizers like to do.

I'm Mohawk Indian by the way and it pisses me off when people in the black community claim my culture and try to say that my people are not the real people that are Native Americans

[nafarispeaks]

Exactly! I’m African and am proud of it

[Africa]

The voice of indestructible reason. RIP!

I find it really sad that this is even a thing....DNA debunks this entire movement before the conversation even starts.

Great video, don't really see that many people calling this out. Proud to be Maya descendiente

I remember being told growing up that my maternal great grandmother was part Cherokee/Taino until I took a DNA test showing most of my ethnic breakdown is predominantly Sub-Saharan African with a small percentage coming from Europe and it is has been documented that most of the original inhabitants of the Caribbean were wiped out by European colonizers.

I even did African Ancestry and both of my tests trace my maternal and paternal lineages back to the African continent, specifically in Mali 🇲🇱 and Guinea-Bissau 🇬🇼.

If a particular black person wants to identify as an Aboriginal American, it’s his/her prerogative at the end of the day and I can’t expect them to change their minds instantly.

Everyone thinks they have native blood it doesn't matter we are all human and on this planet together and need to work as one. We can't change the past but we can choose our future i wish you all a blessed day I love you people

[severincornelius]

Look up the treaty the 5 indigenous nations signed with the United States. Within the treaty the tribes had to abolish slavery. It’s all documented.

[biglj]

it's funny because I tell a lot of people that claim to be black Indians, and they don't understand that the first black people call them black Indians change from the ancient Egyptians, add to Canaanites, Ethiopia in the Phoenicians which are in Africa. And when you tell them this they get mad lol.

[mikeeaston]

So what slave blocks did the so-called Cherokee get their slaves from and we need to see those records please.

[MaryLou]

Many of us have heard about that ‘Indian grandmother’ and I think maybe that’s where it started. I’m 100% with you I just wonder where we got this ‘Indian grandmother’ trope. Was it Mulattoes passing as Indians at one point? Obviously African Americans aren’t 100% African, was it the Mulattoes who passed or even chose an Indian identity out of shame of being mixed race?

[jujuonthebeat]

Its one thing to say ur part native American but its another thing to say that your not african

[heidyalvarado]

Thank you for saying this. We don't want trouble with our black brothers but we're getting fed up with the lies about black natives and blacks being the original olmecs etc etc. Too much disregard for the Natives that are still very much here. So i thank you for this video.
