INSIDE BLACK AFRO-PORTUGAL NEIGHBORHOOD !!!

[@nim3408]

Thank you iam marva for taking us on this tour!

[@bev4848]

It's all good. You did a great job showing us the hesitancy of blacks to talk on tape in that area. I love all your works😃

[@mofatnyingi9352]

I've been hearing that Portugal is a European nation that blacks are not that discriminated and I'm here today to confirm that it's an awesome nation.

[@tlfa5554]

Lieees there is still a big percentage of racism in the country just research

[@ditocerto]

Where did you hear that stupid lie from? Black people are discriminated everywhere, even in their own continent.

[@cocoaorange1]

There is racism in Portugal, as well as most countries around the world. Sadly no matter what the ethnic group, there will always be someone who dislikes or hate somebody, it is human nature sadly.

[@sonja0707]

I love Portugal I go almost every year but because of covid I went last, 2019 I miss Portugal and want to retire there I prefer there than uk. People are loving caring helpful and very family oriented. As a black woman I feel so free there more than uk

Interesting to see so many blacks in that part of Portugal, hope you’ll get a chance to interview a few

[@guleiro]

Due to its colonial past, Portugal has had black population since at least the 18th century.

[@sayyamzahid7312]

🎉🎉🎉

[@SB-gy2vx]

There's a lot of black people all around Portugal.

[@johnp760]

Even earlier, in the 16th century Lisbon was estimated to have been 10% African, going back even further than that the connections to North Africa resulted in many migrations of African peoples from across Northwest Africa

[@johnp760]

Although the older black population of the 1400s-1800s was absorbed over time into the bigger Portuguese population, most of the African communities in Portugal today started forming after the revolution in 1974 and immigration from the former colonies.

Marwa you seem to be the best version of yourself in Columbia or in latin America. In other places, you are too cautious or taking less risk. You said that girl will refuse even before you approach. I just feel like you feel more free to express yourself in latin America. In sales never assume a prospect will say "No" in your mind. Approach with the mindset that you will make a sale.

Hello Marwa

[@Joseph-nw3gw]

Marwa is more fluid and gutsy when he is alone ....he gets pussified by guides or hosts.....and is not able to deploy his interactive superpower. I feel that those who accompany him on street tours tend to unnecessarily constrain him. He should be fluid the way he does in Latin America. It is boring being shown streets, concrete and trains.

[@rahimali3004]

You see Marwa was right when he keeps insisting to the guide that they need to go to the park and talk to people there. But the tour guide was not convinced about it or was not being cooperative. As a guide you should always kind of bend over to your hosts requests and accept some of his ideas. To me the tour guide was not being cooperative. You see people at a park are relaxing, have time to talk, infact some are willing to talk because they may want to meet new friends. What was so hard for the guide to understand that but he kept on insisting to go to other places. Look at Marwas past vlogs most of his successful interviews are done at parks. Remember how long he spent talking to the girls at the park in portugal when he just arrived? The girls were willing to talk and were also curious and keen to talk. But i could see Marwa was getting frustrated with the tour guide, telling him look am at the right place. There are a bunch of Africans here and this is the place we need to be. But the guy was not hearing about that he kept on insisting to other options.

[@zilindogomes1767]

People in portugal are conservative, black people living there tend to be conservative as well. People are not pro active. They normally dont like to take action. They just go about their daily lives. And black people in europe are suspicious by nature. This is still the continent of our oppressor. My best suggestion for interviews would be in shopping malls like Colombo, Vasco da Gama or even the beach like Carcavelos. You could also hit Bairro Alto and night clubs. People in the suburbs are low key. Suburbs in lisbon are mostly residential area. Not too much fuss. Dont worry about your languags skills. Even if you spoke portuguese people would still be suspicious 😅. I like to say that people in portugal have money for a Ferrari but like to settle for a BMW. The want to be low-key. Let me know how it went ✊🏿

[@valmir144]

I was in Lisbon in 2001 and I remember travelling in the subway and thinking "wow, these people look and act like zombies or something". No interaction whatsoever! I am from Angola!

[@ingbor4768]

People normally do not know what they talk about Portugal and African people in Portugal. About 20% of the people born between 1960 and 1976 living in Portugal they did it in... Africa. (The figures available are not reliable.) Most of the white people living in Africa left it after the end of the wars and the independence of the former Portuguese colonies. Some former colons left to South Africa, others Venezuela, but most came back to the current Portugal. (Metrople.) Hundreds of thousands of white people living in Portugal today were born in Africa. They are Africans. Most of the Black people against the independence of theirs countries stayed in their lands in Africa. Some migrated to the Metropole. (Today, Portugal in Europe.) Most of the blacks living today in Portugal were born in... Europe. They can have different cultures from the main stream culture in Portugal but they are Europeans. Most of them are descendants of the immigrants who moved to Portugal from our former colonies. Today in Portugal, black is black and white is white. African is a place of origin, not the colour or religion. The Portuguese society is very complex. We need to fight the white racists and those from outside who pretend to not be racists but they are too, even if they are black. Racists should not have the right to spread chaos, hate and confusion in my land, Portugal. And, btw, just to make sure how this discussion stands. The Portuguese in the past bought the slaves from the people living in Africa. Blacks and Africans like those who where enslaved and sold to the Portuguese traders. So, if some ignorant people pretends to blackmail the current Portuguese generations, and if they are from Africa, they should be ashamed by themselves. My grand-parents bought the slaves from their grand-parents. (And I stop here, because the history is too complex to discuss in this section.)

[@ditocerto]

No, they are not Africans! Those were colonial controlled lands considered Portuguese provinces. There are Portugese people born in Portuguese controlled lands.

The white people on the other hand were more friendly towards blacks from the outside. I met one young black man that was very nice, but he did not speak English. Most of the black people did not speak English. I met a few who were nice, but most of them seem to be not very frienly toward other black people. Otherwise Portugal is very nice.

Hundreds of thousands of Portuguese were born in Africa and are white. One black person is not "Afro-Portuguese". It is Portuguese. Period. One black person is only Afro (African) when it was born in Africa. But most of the black people in Portugal was born and raised in... Portugal. They are not African, they are European like me.
