Corrections - The Omani Ruling Family was the Yaruba Dynasty, not the Yoruba. Sometimes I say 17th Century but the timeline says 1700s. Forgot to put Burundi and Rwanda as Belgian after WW1.

The igbo have been recognized as the biblical Israelites by the Sephardic Jewish Rabbinical Court Obadiah Alliance. It would be interesting to talk about the Igbo relationship with the Jews who were expelled from Spain and Portugal in 1492 and the Songhai empire by Askia Muhammad also in 1492 in Timbuktu

I love any video on the history of Africa but your videos are fantastic. They don’t paint Africans as weak, ignorant “others”, nor do they rewrite history as portray Africans as ancient superior humans. They portray Africans as being as important and equal to human history as every other group of people. There was so much going on throughout the planet pre-Euro/American dominance (let’s say 1600 to the present) and Africa is usually always left out of that conversation.

Europe and Asia everywhere in the world there was some form of servitude Slavery exetra Europeans sold Europeans to the Barbary pirates, as well as other people were sold into that trafficking in Africa. There were these servitude forms of slavery as well not that they were walk in the park, but racialized, shuttle, lifelong slavery, where you could never be free and white people said you were inferior and white people created sciences to prove they were supreme is a very important part of the story, and as you can see, so many white people left Europe in order to conquer and take over Africa and Africans exploit them murder them appropriate their religions and their contributions to society and the richness of their soil and the gold and diamonds. You recognize Africa is a black continent but many of these pictures he’s putting apart of white people who left Europe to do wickedness and nastiness and terrorize Black people Black people did not leave the continent of Africa, nor did Asian people leave their continent to go to white peoples continents and terrorizing enslaved them, exploit them rape them, and all manner of inhumane wickedness Black people didn’t do that, so what’s most interesting to me is there’s never been a time in history since white people have existed on the planet that they haven’t been trying to attack and exploit Africa and Africans and the African diaspora

Yeah he is aware of the biases that exist in others and his own biases and can thus approach history from an intellectually honest position and do a damn good job of it. Really one of the best documentaries I've ever seen Edit: Africa is so culturally and lingustically diverse and enormous geographically that I think it's an overwhelmingly powerful tendency to simplify and generalize african history rather than to do an honest study of it.

The proximity to Europe, and the presence of pale Arabs made it easy for egyptologist to divide the Northern part of Africa from the South and claim Egypt as a western European empire Sub-saharan became a pejorative because it was used as a way to establish the misconception that the people below the Sahara were savages without a culture or history.

Yes there has been a lot of propaganda. But, one needs to develop a sense of curiosity, and if the doubt they need to learn to do their own research and keep an open mind. I look at every thing... challenge my mind and my knowledge... I hang onto what I watch and try to add to the information from other sources.

Idk if this is connected to this documentary's topic, but in the the 1930s, Lithuania actually had a proposal to set up a colony in the Northern Tip of Madagascar to act as a sort of safe haven for a large proportion of the Lithuanian population in the event of a German, Soviet, or Polish invasion. Of course this proposal never went anywhere as Lithuania was too poor to buy the land from France ant to maintain the colony , and because the logistics of setting up such a colony was quite overwhelming. The Colony would've been called "Dausuva", named after Dausos, the spirit world in Lithuanian pagan mythology and it was estimated that up to a 1/3 to 2/3 of Lithuania's population could be evacuated to the colony in the event of an invasion of the Homeland.

RIDICULING incoherent folks is easy, but, even as we dismiss them it's important to contextualize their claims to the realm of either known history, or probability of lost history through enslavement -- it is up to you to separate the wheat from the chaff...How did you come up with the thesis that "civilization started in Ethiopia", do you have proof of that in antiquity....??? The Europeans wrote whole books on their European historical whitewashing lies---the so called "Barbary" are the term they used for the generations of European born and expelled Moors, Africans, Jews (yes, jews!) and Muslims, who were still seething from the systemic genocidal crusades, black deathing, inquisitions, forced conversions and expulsions from Europe, that they literally took-over the entire Mediterranean sea board and parts of the coastal Atlantic sea routes, as restitution and reparations ---on the other hand the reconquista, had already metastasized into full borne conquest, SLAVERY and colonialism, and that was the backdrop of the so called US treaty of Tripoli... Please DO NOT conflate the Moors for the Ottomans, those are historically two very different civilizations, the Moors predate the Ottomans by nearly 400 years---we can argue all day about who were the Moors, but you cannot confuse and deflate the presence of the growth and spread of Islam and the influence of the Malian Empire in that VERY same Sahel region. Think about it, if Mansa Musa made hajj to Mecca in 1300's with an army of 60,000 behind him bearing gifts of gold, ivory, salt and slaves (12,000 each carrying 2kgs of gold), as a Muslim himself who was also allied to the Marinid and Mamluk Sultanates, the former been the rulers of the Iberian peninsula.... One thing the Mansa's had that the Marinids needed more than gold was men, particularly free and enslaved soldiers (Muslims don't enslave Muslims) to hold their territories in Iberia and we know this to be historically and factually true---that there were ten of thousands probably even hundreds of thousands Black African soldiers in the Peninsula is very obvious, Islam after all was expanding and there were never going to be enough Arabs to conquer and hold Al-Andalus without the Malian Empires corroboration.

​@@JabzyJoe Back when I was a Christian there was a line in the Bible that stated, "all have sinned and fallen short of the glory." In your video I see a very complicated and nuanced view of all the parties involved in the slave trade and realize this is more than just a European vs African story and more of a story of how all mankind is complicit in enslaving one another. In the USA blacks don't really get a lot of information about Africa unless it's portraying the continent as this wild and primitive area that nothing developed from. But in your video, I see a sophisticated and sad history that rivals that of Europe, Eurasia, or Asia. Your video helped me to understand why Africa is the way it is today, and why it may never be united or have a renaissance.

Just a correction at 15:30, After mansurs death Morocco went into deep instability and civil war which broke apart the empire, Songhai to Gao was then self governed by the Pashilik of Timbuktu and their Arma ruling class (Descendants of the invaders with local women), this would last and pledge allegience to who they deemed as the legitimate sultan of Morocco, including throughout the Reign of Moulay Ismail of the Alawite dynast in 1670, they provided a regular supply of Gold and most importantly slaves. Most of whom were used in the notorious Black Guard in Moulay Ismails Army. After Ismails death Morocco once gain sank deep into civil war and the pashilik of timbuktu fell into steep decline where they lost territory then became Vassls to the tuaregs in 1771.

Propaganda Will you research the idiosyncrasies such as relating to the Bayaka with a derogatory expression? Or leaving out how Christians sold Christians in the Kingdom of Kongo or showing a person from the Xhosa as chalk white? That is only within the first 10 minutes. Not to mention the use of only one map when there were several maps of Africa during this time period that showed different borders. I just hope you don't just act passive. Propaganda only works through passive participation.
