​@@wadek798 Yeah i agree but dont act like every person in Africa is accepting of Asians or that every Korean is not accepting of Africans. IMO regardless of race, if you can speak the mother tongue then there will always be a group that will accept you. There's always a bit of racism in every country. Even Africans in America will show racism towards African-Americans which is wild. Its not the culture that accepts people, its just good people accepting others into their culture. @Lil_Elegant what a sad statement. I went to college in Chicago and the best part of it was all the different cultures and races. I loved learning about my friends culture from northern India, or Zimbabwe, or Columbia, etc. and I liked sharing back how i grew up as an Asian American. The more you learn about other people's culture the more you realize "oh there's a lot of similarities with my culture" or "oh that's a beautiful perspective of the world". This makes YOU more worldly and understanding of different cultures. It also adds value to YOUR culture when other's understand and respect it.

I’m a Mexican watching from USA. This was so relatable to me. Thanks for doing these videos. When I was brought as a young child to the USA, we lived in a black community. Not only had I not seen a black person before, I didn’t speak a word of English. However, not once did I feel any discrimination whatsoever. But, get this, when we traveled further North and moved into a Mexican/American community, boy was I given a 360-slap-in-the-face discrimination awakening. And, I knew some English by then! Sad reality. Silly thing now, when folks see me in person after talking to me on the phone, they don’t believe it’s me at first sight because I have no accent. They probably imagine a blond, blue eyed Caucasian. Not a black, browned eye, English speaking Latina. Seriously! The little minds of people in their little worlds despite the extent of which technology takes us nowadays. And, the diversity of people all over the world. We need a more open mindset, folks. All people’s are beautiful. ❤ I speak English and Spanish fluently and am learning Thai at the moment. But I’d also like to learn French, German, Italian, Mandarin and Korean because I’d like to visit the other half of the world in the future. Can’t wait! 🤗 Saludos desde 🇺🇸

What I appreciated with him is that he return back in the country of his parents which teached him their culture. He is very interna and can feet everywhere. This is what black european do not have for most and africans who come in Europe for study or what ever don't return in their countries. This is the way to live more Free and more respected and valued. We should all take note!

This is so interesting!!! I was born and raise in Chile, but my parents are from Germany. Growing up bilingual and with two cultures is so interesting to me. It helps you see the world in so many different ways. But it also brings this identity issues. When you don't feel 100% Chilean nor 100% German, in my case. The same thing happens to me when speaking English. When I speak English in Germany, you can totally tell I am not from there. My chilean accent comes and I used to feel embarrassed, but now it's just a part of me. We tend to look for our identity in our culture and I think it's both complicated and beautiful.

There's nothing beautiful abeautiful about people appropriating and commonifying your culture, let them Africans, let them in. We have to learn the hard way when people come in and they use your culture, but they hate you. They commodify your culture, but they try to erase you crime. No, thank you. Just leave foundational black American culture alone. And if those Africans wanna let you come in and appropriate their culture, that's their business.

Just discovered your channel and I really enjoyed this episode. I'm Jamaican 🇯🇲 and I'm so taken aback whenever I hear our country being referenced as influential in someone's lived experience. A nation of just 3m ppl has impacted so many across the globe. It's mind boggling. And especially Africans. I wish you every success with your channel.
