The Mennonites of Belize

Amazing film. My ancestors came to America in the 18th Century. Mennonites, central PA - Lancaster, Mifflen counties. My brother and I have done alot of research on the Mennonites. We were Krieder at first (Kried - chalk and "er" - one who works with chalk." Kreider - "A chalkminer." I went to the area in '87 - nothing but chalk mines. My family, around the 1790's changed it to "Greider." We have been fasinated by the Mennonites when we started our research. So funny - we were raised as Catholics in Pittsburgh. If there are any Kreider or Greider, let me know. We want to continue to fill the "family tree."

@@bishonenprincess4360 I guess you don't understand that these ppl actually like their culture and want to keep it. If they would start marrying other ppl who did not grow up with the Mennonite culture, in the long run they would lose their culture and it wouldn't matter if the other ppl were white, red or black. I don't think you understand the concept of racism. They are not out to destroy or oppress other races, they just want to keep their own culture. And btw, where I come from, faaar away from Belize on this planet, the N-word has one meaning: ppl with black skin. And if there are Marsians (from planet Mars) they may have blue skin and that too would be a description, nothing racist. So what ever meaning y-o-u assign to it, is your problem. But if you are American then I understand your reaction b/c to Americans e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g is racist, b/c they are brainwashed.

for those who feel uncomfortable watching this video...as a belizean i can confirm that the man saying the n-word and saying that they dont marry black ppl, is alright with us belizeans. the n word have no effect on us black people here and many of us also dont consider dating them either. i have a black friend who is in a relationship with a mennonite man and had a baby, but he is no longer apart of that community. he felt trap in that community and i can see why. a mennonite guy also had a crush on me but i wasnt interested. i wouldnt mind dating a mennonite guy but i rather date one who isnt apart of that community. they are also great ppl from my perspective. the biker guys are cool, and they would normally ride their bikes with the locals as well. a few of them date outside there ethnicities and most of them arent trouble makers here in belize.

It's always too strange to me when there are Christian communities that don't want their members to study the bible. You see it in some (not all, of course) Amish and Mennonite groups, they do not allow their members to read the bible unless they are leaders. I think that this is the main sign that certain group leaders have turned away from teaching God's will and started to prioritize their own position in the church.

The first mennonite leader was a former catholic. That time Catholics were not allowed to read the bible. No wonder some still carry that rule.

Which is bereft and sadly non-encompassing. I didn't find it "racist"; as so many commenters has posted w/their viewpoints. Rather, a mere product of which they were raised and expected to believe&follow. (Within both sides of the equation). Education brings Knowledge~Knowledge brings Balance~ Balance brings Acceptance.

Well, I lived in Punalu'u and then Hau'ula so, towns right close by, and the Mormons wanted us to join them too but we weren't really interested. But I got to go inside the temple once, it's not normally open to "Gentiles" as Mormons call non-Mormons but there's a time like once every 100 years or something it has to be re-purified or something so it's, well, I don't want to say "unclean" but it's not completely holy until it's been re-purified so they can let "Gentiles" in so we got to see the inside of it.
