Hey Wode Maya! I'm so impressed with this amazing documentary about your tour of the diaspora in the West. I'm African Jamaica in NJ always watching your videos. Also, I have been so curious about Suriname for many years now, having seeing excerpts from piece meals documentaries. However, yours and within this time, is so in depth despite being short in duration. It really brings me closer to my people. You see anywhere Africans are, from Africa to the diaspora, all are my peoples. I can hardly imagine colourful history of survival conquering the depths of the inner lands while fighting against the wretched oppressions of slavery. For sure without any doubt, the retention of the African heritage is overwhelming in Suriname at the top of my list. I said it and think so without any doubt. Haiti, my closest neighbour from another island may just be the next; while my home island Jamaica and other ranges in various degrees. Yes, the maroon and Rastafari communities with a few others in Jamaica have been significant in that course but for sure where the retention is highly favoured in my opinion is Suriname and of course the geography is dynamic in the reason for that. That young professional lady who arranged your meeting is truly a blessing, warm and graceful at heart. Also, what touched me, even more in extent, is the warm open welcoming of the Vice President. His exemplary style of leadership was even more mind blowing when he ate from the same plate of the village lady his people. So down to earth, of what true African leadership is powerfully about; being one with the people. Continue your good work Maya and be blessed. I look forward to see your in Jamaica; the land of my birth. One Love ❤.

Big ups, Wode Maya! Your Suriname video was an eye-opener - I had no idea there was a country by that name until now. Your content isn't just entertaining; it's an educational treasure trove, especially for showcasing the vibrancy of Africans. You're changing the game, helping us plan must-visit destinations with a fresh perspective. It's high time we took control of our narrative. Your work is peeling back layers of misconceptions and showing that what was once dismissed as 'primitive' is, in truth, the cradle of rich civilization. You're helping to correct the falsehoods we've been taught in schools about our own heritage. Thank you for being an outstanding ambassador for Africa, Wode Maya. Your efforts are truly making a difference. Keep soaring and telling our stories with pride and authenticity! 👏🏾🌍🎥

The vice president is so friendly and kind.

[@candiyoung-gibson1076]

Stay humble, and your influence joining the Diaspora will be successful. Mr. Vice President, you make me proud! I'm watching from Philadelphia, PA in the U.S.

[@explore5130]

The simplicity of the Vice President is admirable. No body guards or serious escort. He's an excellent man

[@TheSENYO]

Other presidents and leaders will recognize your hard work and duly honor, respect and admire your works and accomplishments. Such an amazing feeling from Suriname 🇸🇷.

@@WODEMAYA yes 👍🏿 Wode Maya Believe me, we talk about you at work always.

[@TheSENYO]

@@TabsT-vy5jy very well noted and thanks 🙏. Trust me I have followed his journey from China 🇨🇳 to Africa to the world 🌍 and still continue to follow him. He has been a blessing to my KZbin channel and there is a lot to say about Wode Maya. He has met dignitaries and such an amazing gentleman who keeps promoting the positive sides of Africa to the world 🌍 and working hard to breach the gab between Africa and the diaspora. Thanks 🙏

OMG, I am jealous of this village. we've lost this level of communalism in our villages in Nigeria. Thank you Maya for showing us this.

These people managed to blend and come up with a language of their on with some words from the mother land and maintain some traditions260 yrs down the line

[@ann-marieherdsman2093]

Just a language of resistance : a legacy of the ancestors surviving from Africa to Surinam. In Jamaica it's patois( a combination of English with African syntax)

I am impressed by this humble Vice President . He is loved by all Africans we will receive him back home anytime he chooses to visit African. One Black people one African

Won't bring the VP to Tanzania 🇹🇿 Much Love👊❤

[@nassergabriel4778]

Wow! I'm of diaspora Ethiopion and Kenyan background, with no ties to West Africa and the ADOS, but damn this was absiolutely mindbowing Wode Maya. what really sets this apart is their African purity, maroons who barely have interemixed with anyone else than themselves, they are basically Ashantis seperated from modern day Ghana. The Akans from the central Ghana were, officially, the predominant ethnic group of slaves in Suriname. Wode Maya is culturally and genetically closer to these people in Surinam, lost Akan people, than he is to for example an Tutsi in Rwanda or an Maasai in Kenya

[@cush5147]

I understand your logic but for me anywhere on earth that black people exist, including Rwanda, Ethiopia and Kenya, I’m at home!

[@kollegs101]

​@@cush5147Don't mind him, these fools think they're Arabs except that Arabs see them as light skinned slaves and treat them like crap in the Middle East.

[@explore5130]

😢😢😢😢

[@faa9261]

I’m African American and I have Akan blood in me as well.

[@Nana42-buju]

Wow. I never knew this history of the Ashantis being the predominant group in Suriname. I am an Ashanti too and I guess that is why I felt the connection when I saw the video. I was literally seeing ''known faces'' and it felt like I have met all these people in my life. The connection was just there.

UNLESS IT IS URGENT, DO NOT GO BACK HOME UNTIL YOU SUCCEED No matter the struggle in the wilderness, keep the consistency and struggle until your light shines because they are not waiting for you, they are waiting for your success.

​@@ckaz1176yeah, these people indeed look like him. I remember watching his videos in Brazil and I recall he saying that people looked like him. But I was thinking to myself, this dude is pitchy black and the people he showed looked mixed. Happy to know he found other Africans.
