I visited Brazil in 2019 - Sao Paola and Rio and was blown away !! A very developed nation and met lovely people. I lost my wallet in Paris (I flew enroute Paris) and when I arrived in Rio, I was waiting at the airport for a few hours so my wife could send me money via western union when they open back at home. While waiting an airport official noticed I had been around for sometime without leaving the airport. She came and asked me why I was waiting for so long and why I hadn’t left the airport - to cut the long story short, she made a call and got someone to lead me to a taxi driver outside the airport to take me to my hotel and she paid for my fare. When I got to the hotel, I told them that I needed to get to where I can claim the money sent to me by my wife and again they allowed me to check into the hotel and also arranged for a taxi to take me to where I cashed the money and bring me back to the hotel. That was so kind of them and I thank God for the favour I was shown. By the way and most importantly- a very educational video. Thanks for sharing 👍🏾👍🏾

[@rg3872]

I don't think any Africans in the dispora intentionally abandoned their roots or culture. Enslaved Africans taken to South America, Central America, the Caribbean Islands, and North America were subjected to different levels of subjugation. Some were able to maintain language and culture while others were involuntarily stripped of such knowledge.

Race is so interesting in Brazil. I lived from 1988 - 1990 in Sao Paulo and I've been back a couple of times since; I'm African American. I always try to keep up on happenings in Brazil. I do speak and read Portuguese. Interestingly my French tutor who is Haitian lived about 4 years in Brazil with his wife and daughte, and about a year ago they immigrated to Portugal. We frequently discuss racial issues in the world and of course in Haiti, the US, Africa and Europe. I never forget that yes, Brazil has the largest population of people of African descent outside of Africa and 2nd only to Nigeria as you said in the world. Truth is there were large populations of blacks all over South America but in places like Argentina they really tried to whiten their population. Brazil got way more slaves than the US did. I love Brazil, Brazilians, their usic, the way the speak. It's a huge country. Beleza. Happily the idea that there is no racism in Brazil has and continues to be proven false. I love your blog. I really feel that Brazil is a part of me now. I feel so lucky, I'm from the US, I've lived in Brazil, in France which has a large black population and I've been to Africa so the diaspora is a passion.

I'm sorry to tell you, but Brazil is not just black. bWe have the largest Italian colony in the world here and the second largest German one, and the black population is actually a minority. A mixed-race person You may consider yourself black, but genetically you are NOT. You guys in the USA think that children of black people are black, regardless of whether their mother or father is white.They simply DELETE this miscegenation. I cannot consider myself white, because like most Brazilians I'm mixed race. I have black, indigenous ancestors, a deceased Spanish father, an Italian grandmother. And black children, they are children of a black man and, they consider themselves black, but despite their phenotypes, they also have the white side of their skin. family. In the USA there are more black people, because unfortunately they rarely mix. I do not know why.

I am born and raised in Rio currently living in Amsterdam. It’s refreshing to see my country from your perspective

[@aporianimprince1413]

Thanks for showing us this beautiful part of Brazil 🇧🇷....I'm visiting soon.

[@ludwigvanschoonenborchhawk4060]

It is impressive that every video of gringos visiting Brazil has Caribbean rhythms, cucarachas, as a musical background.

[@agnesblijer6944]

Love what you're doing. Love from Suriname

[@lugaritzbrown2250]

Megan Brazil is a vibe.... the music in the background sounds Spanish not Portuguese.

[@renataferreira8829]

He chose the wrong music for sure.

Blessup and yes... for us who are descendants of those who were taken away from Africa... slavery is a big part of our history... Our ancestors were captured and traded to foreigners for weapons, assorted valuables and money... back then it was considered just business, but our people suffered. We live in a different world now and it would nice to see a unity among all african peoples... whether by slavery, colonization or tribal wars... we all have some pain and now that pain can be used as a common ground to unite us. Blessup Maya, one Love. #NewGeneration

First time commenting here. I admire you for honouring your mom with your channel name, WODE MAYA. I saw your channel for the first time a couple months ago. Since then , I check in frequently. I majored in History and Geography in Teachers College. However, there is still so much to learn continuously and I am learning a lot from you! I am originally from Jamaica, now living in the countryside of Ontario Canada. Just love what you do. Your laugh is contagious. Keep on laughing. Blessings and protection to you! 🙏🙏

Very enlightening video. I felt like I was there in Brazil with you, Wode Maya.

[@dorothychishimba8938]

Have a good trip maya.thanks for showing brazill

[@murielhampson6643]

Wode Maya I love what you do, you are bringing our people together one country at a time. There are so many of our people in the Caribbean countries and Islabds, you wouldn't believe your eyes. Some of our people don't acknowledge them selves as Africans but I know and accept my ancestral roots. I have been to Kenya and loved it. Africa is a special place to me. Do your thing, the universe will lead and provide for your travels.

[@kuraimandipaza7477]

Brazil is very beautiful not only the country itself but also the people too. .. beautiful is an understatement ❤

[@elevationchapter]

😂😂😂the fading African trait came out when you said, " taking short , short, short distances on the bus", to avoid paying 😂😂😂😂

[@auwalubello8880]

In this video of you showing us the magical City of San Polo my thoughts just changed about Brazil.

[@proudmuslim1386]

I'm so proud of you and all that you do! Thank you for connecting South America and Africa! From an American living in Ghana.❤

[@Bokiambori]

I don't know. I stumbled to know you, but you are the best son Africa could ever have. You have globalised and united Africa and the world.

[@robertduo4292]

I am Robert Winner Duo lll Watching you from Liberia, west Africa

[@jojojorgemateus1028]

For me as a person from Portuguese speaking country this is the Brazil I see everyday on TV through their famous soap operas.

[@samtislorh8529]

Wode you’re definitely a great son of Africa. Brazil 🇧🇷 is a beautiful country passed through there in 2019 via Panama 🇵🇦 to Jamaica 🇯🇲. You definitely make me want to visit it properly 🇯🇲🇳🇬🇺🇸🇺🇸🇳🇬🇯🇲🇯🇲🇳🇬🇺🇸 Wode please what’s the name of that Nigerian store?

[@jamaicannana9012]

I love to see that you are expanding out of Africa to other nations where people of African descent reside. So awesome!!

[@enidhaviland4824]

Brazil is really clean and beautiful. Thank you.
