DO WE REGRET LEAVING AMERICA FOR AFRICA?

[@donnafrazier3235]

I've been coming to Uganda since 2003 on short term mission trips. I retired in 2014 and came to Uganda in 2018 stayed three months and said I can live here. I love it especially in Jinja where I live because it is right on the equator. I get natural vitamin D, fresh food and fresh fruit. It's better for my health living here because I was diagnosed with congestive heart failure. I live a better life here with my social security. I appreciate your videos. Thank you for sharing.

[@pabloernesto8044]

Great location. People underestimate natural vitamin D in your health and well-being. That's why people in Africa seem happier and full of life with less means.

[@PurpleLemon2o8]

How is the cost of living?

[@AwakenWithMarkInAFRICA]

Wow, thank you for sharing your story! You're very well-traveled and that's a major blessing. So glad Uganda agrees with you and that your health is better with the fresh food and Vitamin D. Live it up!

The Hamites (dark skin people), don't like us at all.

That’s amazing!!!

'My people perish for a lack of knowledge' Hosea 4:6 That verse sums up so much... Thank you Bradley Family for continuing to send out words of knowledge!

[@AwakenWithMarkInAFRICA]

You’re absolutely right. ‘And in all your getting, get understanding.’ (Proverbs 4:7). And you’re very welcome, thanks for that word, fam!

Fear of the unknown runs deep in American's it doesn't matter the ethnicity. I'm American with west Indian roots living in New Zealand for 19 years now. Every time I visit the states and mention where I live people actually ask me about my freedom and don't I miss living in a free country! Fear is the biggest part of sheer ignorance. My advise is to just live your life and enjoy , don't waste time explaining to Fear! 😊

[@AwakenWithMarkInAFRICA]

Amen and great advice, thank you for dropping that wisdom! No fear over here, just enjoy life. Onward and upward ✈️

[@JourneyWithUsMoveToAfrica]

Excellent video family!! I love the scene changes!

[@AwakenWithMarkInAFRICA]

Thank you so much, fam 🤩✊🏾❤️‍🔥

If you haven't visited Afrika, then you would never know that Afrika is safe, our people live in beautiful cities and beautiful homes. Our brothers and sisters in Afrika are very welcoming to you. They know what we as Black Americans have been going through in the states. I will tell anyone that you must visit before you make up any conclusions. Afrika has changed my life. I will be returning soon. Peace and blessings family, keep up the good work. Hakuna Matata. Ase.

[@AwakenWithMarkInAFRICA]

Thank you so much brother and we hope you return to Afrika soon. Blessings!

[@joaocadula5903]

Keep up the good work man ❤.

[@AwakenWithMarkInAFRICA]

Thanks, will do!

[@Jujulovesmath]

It’s just straight up fear…especially of the unknown, of ending up worse than you were before, and of choosing the wrong place to move to. Visiting is wayyyy different than living there.

Welcome, and thank you!

How is it just possible for Black people like us to claim we don’t like em for no apparent reason? Even tribalism here in Africa isn’t about disliking each other but politically ochestrated by selfish evil politicians. Africa is a continent with 1.4 billion people , there’s vastness of cultures with every possible good & bad

😳America needs to be honest with itself, the founding fathers never envisioned a diverse nation where people lived in racial harmony. They just wanted to get away from England and its Monarchy rules, they wanted a Europe in America minus a King's foot on their necks. If you dont believe me go to the naturalization act of 1790 by the first U.S. President and first U.S. Congress and look at the only people allowed to become U.S. Citizens. This stayed law until the 14th ammendment in 1868, an admendment Trump has vowed to get rid of when he takes office. The goal has always been a homegenous country of Europeans. Even Abraham Lincoln said in 1862 to free people of African descent in the northern states, when slavery is over European Americans will never see you as equals, and he also said that all people of African descent should leave America for their own good and those of his own race. Lincoln said to those who did not want to leave, that even the people on his side would not want them to stay if their whole popu;ation was free! They dont teach this in school but Lincoln writings are availble for all to see. It gave me a more pessimitic view of things because we have been living a lie so long! Trump is only doing the will of the forefathers, we as minorities need to accept our place in this society, by abandoning this futile goal of equality, or take Lincoln's advice and leave for nations we are the majority!

Effed up, but true.

[@AwakenWithMarkInAFRICA]

Thank you for dropping that knowledge!

[@rl8320]

I'm happy for u and ur partner.

[@Thepassporttraveler]

In Ghana more than a few don’t like us and I believe it’s because of how som AA go over there acting so entitled and being outright rude, I have seen it with my own eyes. So then others whom are innocent get treated as if we did wrong

[@AwakenWithMarkInAFRICA]

We'd like to visit there and have a contact or 2 already. Glad you're thriving over there!

[@rossinabuggs3824]

Thank you all❤

[@AwakenWithMarkInAFRICA]

[@AwakenWithMarkInAFRICA]

We've heard great stuff in both East and West Africa, so wherever the good time is that's where you will find us!

[@Thepassporttraveler]

I loved Ghana even though it was definitely a challenge I was prepared for it .
