I can honestly say that this has been by far the most impactful and IMPORTANT activities that I’ve sought out during my travels. For context, this was a THREE HOUR food and history tour. However, as you can see, the video is less than 30 minutes long.. I was asked to leave major talking points out of my video to preserve the experience for others who would like to join in person. Truthfully, this was against my personal better judgement but I am inclined to respect my guide’s Obi wishes and did just that. All in all, this was a life changing day for me and a highly highly recommended excursion on your next trip to London 🇬🇧 All booking info for my guide is listed in the description 🙏🏽

@gwendee5070 12 часов назад

I was too annoyed by his facts, Exactly! He was completely misrepresenting the facts. The large wave of immigration to the UK after World War II started with people from the Caribbean in the late 1940s, especially after the Empire Windrush arrived in 1948. Indian immigration increased after 1947, when India gained independence. While some Africans did come to the UK before then, larger numbers began arriving in the 1960s, with even more coming in the 1990s. During the earlier period, there were indeed more Caribbean immigrants, and it wasn't just Jamaicans-people came from various islands across the Caribbean. My family was here in the 1940s, so I know the history. I think your tourist guide is African? any Caribbean person would know this history very well even the children know about it! but he needs to get his facts right. if we are base this on ethnicity and identity not descendants of Africa

@obibear9261 18 дней назад

Just for clarification purposes.... I may have misspoke but... Healthy Eaters started their business 21 years ago with a food truck in the market and have grown to the point of owning their current space. Them being the 1st in Brixton is not correct. Having been born and raised in Brixton... my original Jamaican bakery was First Choice Bakers on the corner of Market Row.

It weird because I grew up in working class council estates in South West London and then in Manchester in my teens. But I am now guilty of sipping flat whites at these hipster coffee shops in places that were once very working class like Shoreditch and Battersea. I feel like I am part of the problem despite earning a modest salary if about 35k a year and only just managing to make ends meet living in London. I just happen to like the coffee in these places but some of the people that gentrify working class areas have nothing to do with the local residents who grew up there.

It’s Ethiopian food and it is called Beyeaynetu which is an amharic word for from “different kinds” And Eritrea got its independence from Ethiopia three decades ago. We shave common cultures to some extent but the food is Ethiopian. Go to Washington DC and LA and you will find Ethiopian restaurants all the people from around the world love the Ethiopian food. Or come to Ethiopia and get it fresh and raw and see for yourself:)
