Sis, Cuba is not doing enough for themsleves yet they still send doctors to help another country like what they did latey for SIerra LEone by sending 100 doctors to the country. US still lack yet they countries. every countries just trying to boost their global image. infact Abeokuta in Jaimaca is just a place for Abeokuta descendats in Jamaica, that Nigeria can heelp out just like they do help Sierra Leone alwyas

[@clair411]

@@mobolajijoseph8899 Cuba can afford to send doctors, Cuban are highly educated and have a very high literacy rate in the world if not the highest. Education is free there and they produces some of the best doctors.

[@kingnaldo4058]

How come I never heard of this place 🤔

[@shawniepirie8719]

Very interesting Place! However, we were brain washed that slaves were brought straight from Africa to Jamaica! Jamaica was used as a booth-camp for slaves that were disobedient to those dogs that called themselves masters from all over other islands... Yes they are from all parts of Africa, but not directly brought from there!

[@lgrthegreat1977]

You’re right! they did bring slaves from many different islands but those blacks was also indigenous to the americas. Not all of them were from Africa.

[@timmyaroyewun4983]

​@lgrthegreat1977 and where did they originally come from? Even if they migrated to another land. Your point is abit biased, if you're tarnishing the fact that Africans were enslaved and taken away from their homeland. Moreover, Abeokuta only exists in Nigeria and Jamaica.

You can do a research on the slave trade and see how the slaves were transported to Jamaica from Africa.

[@annjames4403]

Tania you are doing a great job but sometimes your responses sounds ignorant. I would suggest you do a bit of research and have an understanding before. It's good we explore our past but never forget that millions of innocent men and women were stolen by the white man and brought to the new world and robbed of their God given rights! There is nothing beautiful about that! Let's not forget the lashes, deprivation, stolen labor or our ancestors. There is nothing beautiful about a great house where these wicked oppressors stole and build their wealth on the backs on our ancestors. Tribute and a moment of silent to honor those souls! That's the least we can do. My 2 cents

[@lorrainenelson2484]

I was thinking about the swimming pool. He said that it was built by the Spanish. The swimming pool was built by the slaves. The Spanish didn't build a thing.

[@timmyaroyewun4983]

So the exploration is what is causing the arrant nonsense you've just taken time to type, your response against Tania has no plausible fact, she is enlightening people. Do you also know there's a place called Calabar in Jamaica, which links back to Nigeria also. I'm really trying to read and double read your response, it's not making sense....any sense, where in this video has she disrespected our ancestors. Well done Tania I appreciate your work.

Our ancestors fled into Africa from OPPRESSION as was ordained for us by 'THE MOST HIGH' so we could be brought by ships to the land of the pyramids. Watch the videos.
