My ancestors are Afro-Brazilian and my roots are from the Fula, Yoruba, Congolese, Senegambia, and Angolan people. I literally look like them and I was so proud to see my people.

[azeemmagazine]

I went to Salvador Bahia, Brazil, you see HUGE statues of the Orishas, African religion is accepted and open, you can hear the DRUMS all around, Yoruba & Kimbundu in the music and the language like you said, Capoeira and so much more afro retention. As an African-American to be there it feels as if this is how it would've been if your ancestors were allowed to just be African and develop their afro culture.

🔥🔥🔥 they are probably the most forgotten/least spoken about group of the African diaspora and are the largest group of the diaspora.

I'm Afro-Brazilian, and I love your channel.

Afro Brazilians and all diasporan Africans, please do not feel forgotten by Africa. The motherland remembers. Much love from Kenya.

Afro-Brazilians are beautiful. And I'm glad that they stayed with the African roots. Good video again, Home Team.

I loved dark skin, wide noses kinky hair and full lips. I can't help it, that's what my uncles on my father side look like. We are such a beautiful people, I just wish we knew how beautiful we are.

I am a Black American man who has been to Bahia, Brazil several times. It is one of the best places to travel to for African culture outside of Africa. The people are beautiful and they relate to us very well. I remember going to a museum there and it had on the wall a statement that said, the first Brazilian was created after the Portuguese had sex relations with the African.

Can you make a video about the Haitian revolution?

I’m part of the natural hair community. We have a large Afro Brazilian following. They are embracing their Afro texture like crazy.

[arushanioshaka]

Long live Africa and Afro Brazilians i hope they continued to embraced their african heritage. never forget who you are

[diroche]

All blacks people around the world need to be united

[stephaniefrancis]

That is true with some of our Ancestors taken from West Africa, they were more educated than the European slave master, there is proof of that .

[BlackManTravels]

I have been to Salvador Bahia. Beautiful black experience and more culturally diverse than Rio. There is no black representation in their media as well as they're still fighting for civil rights.

[yahnessaadonai]

I’m Afro-Portuguese but I feel very connected with my Afro-Brazilians. ❤️❤️❤️

[ummof]

Long live Angola 🇦🇴 African who speaks Portuguese I love my culture and heritage

[t.lunaimhotepmdiv]

Thank you for this! I love Afro-Brazilian culture. I plan to live longer in Brazil. Currently learning Portuguese, people ask me why? I constantly have to explain how so many of my sistas and brothas speak Portuguese and I want to know them!

Am from Ghana living in sao Paulo
I like your programme so much..

[prophetofbara]

Very nice video! Here's a video idea: Afro-Colombians. The famous Colombian dance of Cumbia was heavily influenced by West Africans.
