Unbelievable | African American Young women meet the King of the Zulu Kingdom at his Palace

[@LungieMiya]

I’m so proud to be Zulu right now.. Siyabonga Sis Velile❤

[@TalkThatTalkMiah]

🌹Thank you for your hospitality! We enjoyed your home and good cooking🙏🏾 May the Lord bless you ten fold

[@VelileLifestyleDecorTV]

Blessings to you guys for gracing our home with your warm presence. May the Lord guide you through your careers and prosper every opportunity arising in the future. 🙏🏾❤️

[@AyandaNgxoweni]

The GOAT is u Velile!. U are sooooh passionate about your your country and putting it on a global map❤.

[@VelileLifestyleDecorTV]

😂😂😂 imbuzi yonyaka. Thank you. 🙏🏾❤️

[@mafrica8105]

Wow, this is Amazing, l have always felt it is so important to have African Americans as well as other people of color in the Diaspora visit the continent and get to see for themselves what Africa and its people are like instead of hearing it from the bias media of the West. I spent 45 yrs in California and my brother went to Howard. We were born not too far from where you are in the country of Lesotho, my father went to Stanford University so we moved to the Bay Area when l was eight. So now that l am back in Southern Africa l am so happy to see platforms such as yours that give people a chance to see what our beautiful continent looks like and meet and enjoy the people of Africa ❤

[@gugumanqele5738]

This is one experience they will forever cherish and will stick on their minds ❤ They now have a story to tell about their experience in SA to their families and their kids in the future 😊

[@VelileLifestyleDecorTV]

Most definitely. It is a story if a lifetime fir them. 🙏🏾❤️

[@soulrebel2006]

Another awesome video. I must say this is one your best videos because it was so emotional. For years I always asked myself “did our African Brothers and Sisters forget about us”? We may not know the exact details of our struggles, but I do know that there is a connection and it’s coming home. When I saw the ladies meet the Zulu King, it almost brought tears to my eyes because we as black people need to know that we have Royalty and we have to be proud of our ROYALTY. The fact that the students got an opportunity to meet the king is breath taking. Thank goodness I get your notifications, there was no way I was going to miss this. Keep doing what you’re doing 🌹

[@VelileLifestyleDecorTV]

I was emotional editing the video myself. No, we never forgot but most of us both in the continent and the diaspora are caught up in the capitalist system and it’s demands that we are forgetting who we are. It’s is upon us to do as much as we can with those willing to build Africa again. Thank you for watching. 🙏🏾❤️

[@nkululekomabaso-r9s]

@@VelileLifestyleDecorTV Siyabonga dadewethu for showing hospitality to our fellow sisters odadabethu that we love them dearly and that they re welcome because this is their home too. we never forgot them and we know what they went through and still to this day, we feel feel their pain and we are with them in spirit. We might be separated by oceans but we are connected in spirit. God bless you and may he bless all our people throughout the diaspora. I LOVE ALL MY PEOPLE AND GOD WILL BRING US TOGETHER AGAIN LIKE HE DID THE ISRAELITES

[@lailaharris2881]

What is the application process to do this. We are located in Atlanta Ga. Is there a website for more information. I think this is a revolutionary step with our youth from the diaspora

[@sthe_zar6341]

Velile's husband Dr Sithole is a lecturer at Howard university and these are some of his students who've taken up isiZulu at university and are visiting here to immerse themselves in the culture and life in South Africa 🇿🇦.Hopefully they'll be able to accommodate you.

I stay in Durban inner city and it’s alwys breathtaking when I go to the rural areas when I go home walk where my ancestors used to walk breathe the air I often walk barefoot and touch the soil yet I’m just a few kms away I can imagine what it feels like to them growing up to stories about a place they call your home to seeing it live to bieng at a place where you are the majority , please do a lot of this for many kids in the US it may help them connect with themselves and they know a bit about who they are they are kings we are all kings I hope we don’t forget that
