Travel is so important to perspective as a black person. It gives you more insight into your humanity, considering America strips you of it. I've lived on 3 continents, lived in 4 countries (Senegal being one of them) and 5 cities. Learned 5 languages. I traveled as a kid and adult, and now I get to take my children and husband. They've been everywhere and it's such a beautiful experience to share!

[@damd2999]

Thank you, I traveled a lot (Dakar as well) and that’s exactly how I feel, specially as a black man.

[@JH-wl4yy]

Same here. Lived: Continents(Europe, Australia, USA) cities (Austin, NYC, Prague, Barcelona, Melbourne, Berlin) I makes me so sad to see/hear other black people who are full grown adults who interact with the entirety of the world using the same lense of where they were born.

@@JH-wl4yy yeah, but I never blame them because the marketed messaging in America is soooo strong. It's melatonin to the mind, especially to the fear-based black mentality.

[@SocraticMind89]

Why do you have to be black for it to be important? U can’t just be a regular person? Why do you feel the need to be accepted by the white man? I’m just curious as a fellow person of color, help me understand your view of it, is it the obvious dark history of the white man once owning black folks that the need to get back at them or show them WE CAN DO WHAT YOU DO? Please I’d like your insight

[@thicky]

keep in mind in many of these coyntries they see two types of blacks. black immigrants from africa and black westerns from either england or america. and usually they can tell. so they tend to engage certain types of blacks. as they know american blacks have more to fier them than say one from ethiopia or anywhere in africa or asia

[@gerryo25]

I visited Venice and some people were fine and I remember this one woman looked at me and made a sound of digust at my big afro. I'm sorry long prolonged stares and stern body language is not a good sign. You can tell when people are curious about you or you're being stared at with an aggressive attitude. Italians and Spaniards are very guilty of this and I've been to Barcelona as well and seen it. It's like dealing with white people in the US who rarely see black people and don't really want to. London and Paris are fine I much prefer to travel to multicultural cities or at least places people are half way decent about people who don't look like them. I'm not looking for the welcome wagon but hard stares are not necessary and I stare right back.

[@KeleWele23]

Unfortunately, you are making a generalized statement about African traditions. The continent of Africa is composed of 54 countries. Within each country is a diverse group of tribes, languages, customs, beliefs etc. I am married to a Ghanaian who is from the Ga tribe. Our surname/last name is both Ghanaian & Hebrew. They are Hebrews who believe in God/ Yahweh. They left Egypt with Moses. Their customs, beliefs, traditions, foods reflect their Hebrew heritage. The paternal house is of the priesthood. Those that strayed away from God have become part of what is called a fetish. So, the belief & generalization that idol worship, voodoo, witchcraft, Ra, Horus, Hotep, or even Islam/Muslim is the "original" belief or religion of the continent of Africa is INCORRECT!

Woni spotts is the first black woman to do this

[@mugenyiassad1699]

She said Senegal, Sudan, Japan, Cuba, Egypt and Mexico... A bonus country was added to her list of 5 favs... Where is Uganda though, her country of origin. Its pretty awesome here folks... Parte after Parte (like Big Tril sang).. the source of the River Nile.. & the Mountain Gorillas.. the best food ever, 50 plus cultural experiences in one pot etc Come on Nabongo... Great Interview, either way! Will definitely buy her book...

[@realjawn]

Oh I’m buying this book!

[@atllife7226]

Traveling is one of the most important things to do in order to expand your mind and brain functions. So many ppl see the same roads, same buildings and same places to eat their entire life to the point that their perspective on life and ppl never changes. Staying in your neighborhood creates a mental jail for yourself!!!7

[@kdware12]

Hash#new goals. I’ve seven all seven old world wonders and traveled to every continent. Now I have a new bucket list to travel to every country in the world. I haven’t been afraid to travel alone but have been disinterested in Eastern Europe.

[@melanitex1089]

Woni Spotts ⁦was the first Black Woman to travel around the globe not this woman.

[@tonythomas2622]

Facts!

[@dance4life1208]

That part

[@wearenotpoetsx]

Is it a competition? Also a bit rude to say "not this woman" when she has a name.

[@sheeba8334]

Is that the only info you've picked from a whole interview?? come on..you can do better

[@larisssacantu7052]

I was hoping she’d say Mexico. ❤️❤️🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽 definitely buying her book she is so inspirational ❤️❤️❤️

[@jackole5438]

Was Woni Spotts "the first"???

[@King-fz8iw]

Yes

[@nawal10]

That's beautiful but no one should feel bad for not being able to do the same. Traveling is expensive and exhausting. Many people travel and learn nothing. They go for selfies and parties lol. Have purpose when u travel and yes write about it! But do it on your own pace and own budget. Don't rush and don't put it first when u have other priorities. I feel there's pressure on people to travel and those who don't are like looked down upon or something. I don't understand why.

[@AccentBwoy]

U make some solid points but I disagree on some

[@intentionaltia9842]

👏🏿👏🏿

[@britjj5126]

I think it's all about perspective. There's pressure in many spheres of life. Some will look down on others for not being in a relationship or not being married and starting a family. The list goes on.

[@nawal10]

@@britjj5126 well pressure for survival is a must but pressure to do leisurely activities isn't and shouldn't be indirectly forced.

[@brittishcapelle6508]

I most definitely agree! They even compete due to they're in first class and you're flying economy...😒 look if the plane goes down we all going to go ,in addition we're all going to the same place!

[@myaneemy]

That was such a great conversation ! I wasn’t sure I could litsen to 28 minutes of travel stuff but was pleasantly surprised

[@griffinjenn85]

Omg! I love her! I’m ordering the book just for inspiration as traveling the world is definitely on my bucket list! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@globalhottrends1267]

Heyy 😊 i love travelling too! If you are interested i host group trips and i have a couple of Girls trip happening this year. Let me know and i can send you some more details ✨️

[@jamming8148]

Yes I lived and taught in Japan, I agree with everything she said ❤️

[@sherondaness7505]

Yes! I've gotten to visit frequently for work and would absolutely live there.

[@Toyiamichelle]

Hey, I follow her on ig. Before she completed her travel list. Cool to see her on here

[@11Makeachange]

Wow. This is so amazing. I constantly watch travel vloggers who travel to 100+ countries and can't find any black travel vloggers! This is so powerful!

[@blackamericanssecretorigins]

Woni Spotts is the first verified Black woman.

[@boubacar13]

Been to Japan and it is absolutely my favorite place on earth. I would love to go back to Okinawa and Kyoto

[@patreececharles8854]

I love to travel but this got me looking for flights. I would love to visit Senegal and Ghana.

[@Ur.Christiano-c7v]

You’re welcome to Ghana 🇬🇭 in advance…Looking forward to seeing you.

[@SeeUnKSH]

Not true. Woni Spotts is the first Black women to travel to the most countries.

[@jevaunturner3910]

Bought the right after this interview & it’s worth every single penny. So inspiring!

[@luvlacali]

I've went to 5 countries in 2 weeks, never experienced a racist moment until I got back to the states. News talking about gunning down black people just because of skin tone.

[@X45018]

Great interview ! I’ll buy the book

[@maryannanderson5964]

🌹This Queen is Beautiful🌹

[@LynnsTV]

She said Kenya is one of her favorite countries😍😍
