Here in 2024 We’re proud of your bravery Mama Africa ❤

She was so soft-spoken and then when she sang her voice was so powerful!

People right now complain about mundane problems. People like Makeba & other black, brown, and other ethnic people who were alive before the 70s, experienced REAL struggles. I feel so blessed for those who fought against apartheid, communism, socialism directly.

Hi Lifen, It's me, Catherine. Nice to see you after so long. Best wishes to your daughter.

A short and perfect description of her life...musical genius queen, revolutionary. Her Spirit lives on...

Everything about her blasts me, even as a young girl. I always dream of being my generation Mariam Makeba, my hero

I’m just saying if you’re the best child in the Lord He always will give wisdom to stand sternest indeed. I am glad to hear her voice and it makes my heart happy 🎉❤🎉.

Amazing Woman. I celebrate her remarkable talent, courage, brilliance and grace. Immortalized Mama Africa 🎉

When I was a young child Pata Pata was very popular in my neighborhood and home especially. We learned of Mariam Makeba's struggles with apartheid from ebony and jet magazines including her marriage to Stokely Carmichael. A blessed memory!!! er marriage to Stokely Carmichael.

Praise GOD He is still in Charge! and All Vengeance belong to Him. Thank you for this wonderful informative message, at this time when so much History is being erased. Blessings.❤

Wicked, wicked system.

We need a Palestinian Miriam Makeba now.

She is a Legend. A Star! Thank you for showcasing this great Treasure! I hate Hollywood but there needs to be a movie about this amazing soul.

What a history. She was so gorgeous too.

This was a true comrade political activist who fought till the end of Segregation era

Almost every non-white individual on earth has a valid reason to despise and hate the white race; broadly speaking there is no group as despicable.

Very talented. Her music feels like it was here from beginning of time.

I heard the adults talking about her when I was little in the 70s. I loved her Pata Pata song and never knew she was singing it. I heard her name, but I didn't know who she was or what she did. I just found out today that she was South African, Xosa. I know I spelled it wrong, but I don't know the correct spelling. I had no idea of her place in the struggle to end apartheid. I only learned of Apartheid a few years before it ended.

Mariam Makeba was a great lady; unfortunately there is no other woman like her in South Africa today; it's a shame

The South Africa that Miriam Makeba presented on the world stage when i watched her in February 1977 during FESTAC in Lagos is totally different from the South Africa that has emerged today.

we had our favourite nanny, and for the life of me, we never once thought that we be hurting her feelings, whether we left or stayed - Im now almost 60 years old, and just learnt what its like to hear from your side - God bless for the enlightenment

I did not understand the language but the music as well tone touched my soul, awesome singing

Real History is amazing, awesome

I grew up hearing her and hearing about her.not understood nothing and I took her for granted.

Quelle voix!❤

I remember her mainly for that song at the end of the video, and it was with the news of her death that I learned more about her. Thanks for the video !!!

Hail Queen Miriam

What an amazing, wonderful, courageous woman. Such a beautiful, powerful voice. The apartheid system in South Africa was outrageous -- unforgivable, just so egregious. Humans are so inhumane, sometimes. ~ In a world where you can be anything, be kind ~ Miriam embodied goodness and kindness. And, that voice! ❤

I am so emotional 😭

Why can't we see modern singer going against homosexuality, gayism that derails our moral fabric .As the way aparthied destroyed human social diversity

GREAT VOICE SONG & MUSIC OF AFRICA

I was also born in 1958,non of these things were known of, I remember age about 7 being in a car with 3 younger siblings who were terrified by some coloured kids banging on the car .We had never seen dark skined people before, they really scared us.mum and dad were visiting a coloured lady friend .I have a photo of her but don't know who she is.

Love her and song

I'm here becaus of Jain!

I was blessed to have met Ms. Makeba “Mama” in Flint Michigan 1994. My Wife and I were allowed to spend time with she, her friends & family and Hugh Masekela. My life was richly blessed by this experience.

White? No white people should ever have even thought of doing these things to black? People. Could they not see that they are humans and exactly the same as white?

Id like a Movie . This ENTIRELY Can be put into scenes as told. To the end. This Is The BluePrint

I see where Rihanna Got the Song for T'Challa aka The Black Panther & why its so powerful.. it was for Nelson Mandela from Mama Afrika

hope one day this video will be viewed by millions

I am so proud of you People Much love for you and Makeba💕💗💗💗🙏🏼🙏🏼🎶✨

I'm here due to some strange routes. The recently viral song makeba by the artist Jain is everywhere. Came across an insta reel talking about who the makeba in the song is a reference to. So here i am, looking up Miriam Makeba and experiencing awe and wonder and love.

Tienes un admirador acá en puerto rico hermosa mujer como me ubiera querido conocerte eras preciosa y una voz hermosa dejaste huellas en nuestros corazones descansa en paz nuestra mamá África ♥️
