They did not Mexico was just as racist. They were in conflict with TX settlers so they needed the seminoles. Mexico today is just as racist as it ever was.
@@robbycole7047 that’s because colonizers live there lol u forget Mexico was colonized and Europeans did not all leave. Not to mention when u push ur ideology onto others there will come at time when people hate their own skin color, so how can they care about others of color! If ur going to spew rhetoric understand it from the whole perspective not just what u hear by colonizers that are in it to divide! Do better
Every skin color was welcome and the Seminole tribe are our indigenous people before colonization and trans Atlantic happened and regardless what our skin color was we identify by tribe. Africans that were adopted in our tribes called freedmen is how they came about! And everything that happened to Africans happened to us before Africans arrived trans Atlantic. So we would understand. Knowledge is power!
@tyrone21ish no, creating false comparisons is another anti blk tactic. Most are European and identify as such in mx. Nothing comparitive happened in it's totality to the people of Mx many were slavers as it was also one of the last slave holding countries in the America's. Now mx is as anti blk as ever. You ppl love making up fallacies for comparative inclusion. What happened to Vicente Guerrero, by the way?
@@AKC357 it’s always Cherokee,Seminole,Chickasaw, Choctaw or creek! Smfh🤦🏾♀️ out of all the 574 federally recognized tribes that’s the go to tribes of all who do not have proof just claims. Join the Europeans who do that as well. Interesting how DNA says different for 95% of those claims.
The US and Mexico never had black presidents 😂 they had mixed Presidents. Try and get it right, don't use a mono-racial label on bi or tri-racial people. That's a gringo thing
@timnooneslackeyasuna8699 Not a gringo thing. It's a thing to try and divide black people and pit us against each other. We have always embraced our family and friends and never asked them to declare what fraction of African blood they had in order for us to care about them. The amount of European ancestry, or even having a non-Black parent doesn't change that. Family is family.
@@elainewaller-rose9707 If factual information is "divisive," then so be it.... Too many try to use the narrative "divide black people" to shame other black people who don't bow to their ideology GTFOHWTBS
I'm from Corpus Christi, Texas. This part of history was never disclosed until today 6/24/24. Eye opening facts as this must be enlarged expanded and included all over America, instead of minimaled, diluted, or as in Florida outright lied about.
I grew up with a black Seminole here in NYC. Phyllis Lumford. She knew her history even as a teen. She also knew that one of her ancestors was an African Princess who was captured and brought here. I've met others here in NYC as well. But Mexico??? What an enlightening shock!!!
Vicente Guerrero, the second president of Mexico. His parents were Pedro Guerrero, an African Mexican mix and other parent Guadalupe Saldana, an Indian. So he was only a quarter black aka African.
@@raamyasharahla535he was a quarter black 🗣️🎤 of course we can relate we are the first to be enslaved and other unspeakable acts not to mention almost completely wiped out. This history is there to find.
He actually didn't, that was Benito Juarez. Guerrero started the ball rolling to end it with a Presidential decree that banned slavery in a large part of Mexico.
Muchos de nosotros sabemos la historia de los negros mascogos , Seminole y Kikapoes ,,, la gente que no lo sabe es en usa 🇺🇸 en MEXICO 🇲🇽 es MAS conocida principalmente en Muzquiz COAHUILA 🇲🇽.
Beautiful and thank you for sharing. If more of us knew and understood our history...I truly believe a lot would change as well how we treat each other.
I don't know man, I keep seeing Mexicans call Vincente Guerrero black 😂 when he was mixed. Also heard people call Yanga a hero 😂 you would not say that if you read the letters from Spain to New Spain about him. I guess they didn't look into them at the university level.
@@denisebycapricorn We're a lot more than just Spain, ad Phillipine/ fillipine islands Even Several Desert and Canyon tribes do have hidden African Ancestry. Some of us are the rarely mentioned Uto Aztec tribes Mexico had before Canyons and Deserts became southwest states of the USA. Some Mexicans are even other groups helping Spain with its plans of invasion and war. Schools of the USA don't tell current people the full history of Mexico's invasion issues. In The USA I don't even really know the unmentioned local indigenous tribes that well. USA schools don't mention the raiding issues either.
We are all brothers and sisters. Why do some Americans allways export racisim and hatred ? El dia de los Negros is a happy ocasion for us. You live it your way, and let us live it our way.
Mexico told the Nationalized citizens ( people from the USA that became Mexican citizens) they could not have slaves and any slaves they owned were now free. The terrorist rebelled against Mexico and refused to free the slaves. The rebels formed an army at the Alamo and fought for the right to own slaves. The rebels lost the battle of the Alamo. Freedom for the slaves would come later on Juneteenth.
@@Art3615 Texas still became a slave state until june 19th 1865 and I don't care about the Alamo besides the Alamo wanted Patriots freedom not African American freedom.
@@Art3615 In the state of Texas I don't care about the Alamo besides they wanted Patriot freedom not African American freedom besides after the Alamo was over the state of Texas still wanted slavery to be legal and it's part of the southern state of the USA!
Come down here to the Military Highway in deep S Texas in the RGV. On Military Highway you will see a little church on the N side of the highway haz a tunnel which us claimed to help cross the ex slaves into Mexico. There is also an old mansion which was also used for the same purpose. It is across the military highway
Black people are native to the Americans. Not all Black people in the Americans are escaped or former enslaved people. Not all Black people come from Africa.
I remember one time I argued with a great African-American friend because I told him that I was blacker than him, ( i'm borne and race un México) he was furious denying it was true, at that moment I put my arm next to his and reinforced his astonished face when he saw that my skin was darker. darker than his leaving him speechless, we are connected we are branches of the same tree and that fills me with pride
Sir you will never be a true real black Person. Just because your skin is darker who gives a damn about that. Y’all need to stop tryna take our history. Y’all have y’all own damn history. They not like us!!
I don't know where this story of seminoles being runaway slaves came from. Seminoles were a conglomerate of tribes fighting to protect their land and oil. The word semimole literally means Blacks or Maroons. And what you call the Indian wars was really known in Europe as The Petroleum Movement. This conglomerate of Black Tribes also included California Seminoles. One tribe well known today as Sinaloa fought valiantly and thats the only reason why they arent extinct today. Maybe a little pale but still with us.👍 Maybe if the United States came clean about what really took place in history citizens would know the war never ended. All you hear from Amerikan media is what are we going to about Afrikan Amerikans, Mexicans, Sinaloa, Rußians, Germans, and Housing? This is all you will ever hear from every Amerikan media outlet, News Paper, and Social Media dating back to the 1800s. Thats because Media literally means WHITES.
Omgosh!!! This I didn't know. I knew about black Seminoles who never left the USA but not this part of the story. I grew up with a black Seminole here in NYC. Met others during my life. AMAZING VIDEO!!!
Are you related to these people? I know and are friends with several members of the Warrior and Raspberry and July family members. I am ADOS but not directly related to them. I have been to the celebrations honoring the Seminole Negro Scouts. It's funny how some ADOS people say they are blood relatives of certain people If your name is not on the tribal roll you are not related. Say you support their history would be more appropriate 😊
They divided us we all are the same people. They programmed us to think that we are different by the color of are skins. But it's the bloodline that connects us as a big family. That connects us to TMH spiritual we are spiritual people.
I was born Mexican from Jalisco and did not know about them. In Mexico there is ignorance more than discrimation there is so much Mexican history that not even Mexicans themselves know. For me it does not matter the color of skin if not the love for the land that you step on that matters if you are gray blue purple what imoorta is the intention in action in land that saw you born. All of them are my Mexican brothers 😊
Tampoco generalices, es como si yo dijiese "USA está lleno de racismo e ignorancia" y no es cierto. Recuerda que en paises grandes y con grandes poblaciones de muchas diversidades étnicas como lo es USA y México es difícil capturar todas las historias de cada grupo, así que por lo general se hace un resumen de aquellos grupos que tuvieron un mayor impácto en la sociedad de dicho país, y la forma más fácil de hacerlo es generalizando a cada grupo étnico, ya cada estado puede hacer una historia más desglozada de su territorio, es por eso que en México muchos no saben qur aún hay negros (mestizos) en el país, y sólo lo saben aquellas personas que viven en las zonas donde se dió este mestizaje, que por lo general es en la centro-sur y sureste (Veracruz, Oaxaca, Tabasco, Guerrero) y la única zona norte es en Coahuila. Y es en estos estados donde se mira a la comunidad negra de México tanto en la sociedad, tradiciones, bailes e historia. A diferencia de USA que las comunidades negras se encuentran en cada uno de sus estados, y claro que en diferente proporción.
My dad was born in Palau, Coahuila, Mexico which is not far from Nacimento De los Negros. I just want to say they don't celebrate Juneteenth. By they I mean Mexican people. Most Mexican people have no idea what Juneteenth is. I say this so the truth be told and known.
@@tigerkhanshort3053What he means is it's mostly celebrated by gringos visiting. It helps bring in tourist dollars, not rocket science. Even some native dances 😂 completely made up as a requirement for tribal status. But again 🤷 it brings in gringo tourist dollars right?
The truth is more like we don't know about juneteenth because we never saw them as slaves, as soon as they set foot on our country they became citizens and free! Viva Mexico!!
Wow!! Can you please document everything he has fo say about this?? I believe it. I even saw pictures of the indigenous Taiwanese and they were Black in color like the Negritos of the Phillipines. So much of this story is hidden. I pray your grandfather is well and shares all of his info with you to pass down to the generations!
My uncle is a Mexican Tiger Woods. He and my Aunt travelled to Africa as tourists and walked with lions and visited Mr. Nelson Mandela's landmark house.
@@raamyasharahla535not all black are Africans my friend. You can find natives in all continents that are black and never experienced the transatlantic slaves trade
@@carlosnievas1220 Really I'm from the East Coast NYC/NJ and I have always enjoyed the Spanish culture along with the food which is delish! Sadly, I moved to the north-west of Ohio and it purely lacks diversity! The Mexican people here strongly dislike blacks, a lot of them identity as white. I enjoy Mexican food and when you go into a Mexican restaurant I can feel their energy. It's a shame that there is so much hatred in the world. And now from the looks of it may get even worst. Peace & Blessings to you!
The U.S. government didn't free the slaves in the U.S. it was constant pressure and rebellions despite what you learned in history. The Seminoles are not the only group of Black slaves to fight against slavery. She has a ton to learn.
@@charleyu5506 they didn't protect shit, in fact natives owned slaves. But at the end we see they couldn't keep up if you know what im saying. And they tried kissing white people ass and still lost their land lmao. Black people tried to help them.
@@Regalman We literally saved you from the spanish and the english and let you live as members of tribes. The biggest slave owner was a BLACK man and they say he was the most cruel massah. Truth is stranger than fiction.
Just to start off, I think this is amazing. I agree with most of the story but not the part about them being slaves. They weren't slaves they were always Indians (Niiji) just a different tribe. The indian removal act was signed into law by Andrew Jackson in 1830.
Seminole means "runaway'" but many escaped slaves that could find their way to Florida joined up with the Seminoles building up there "tribe" but the escaped slaves chose to live separate from the Seminoles but when one group went to war ALL went to war.
PEACE AND LOVE TO MY BLACK FAMILY WE ARE WAKING UP TO OUR BIBLICAL HERITAGE AS " HEBREW ISRAELITES " WE LOVE YOU BROTHER AND SISTERS ALL THE WAY FROM DALLAS TEXAS SHALOM
@@justpassingthrough1932 both. history shows people in “negroland”(km of juda) was in the americas long before the pilgrims. SOME of these light skinned native/mexicans that descend from negros can jus be the same as an “african american”…an israelite. the curses probably can be shown in their communities. i do not agree with the chart but it has a little truth to it.
Black Seminole, black Mexican, black American or Afro this or that; that’s disrespectful from them they are supposed to just be Seminole, Mexican, Honduran,Colombian and so on… Let’s leave behind the division! Let leave behind the racism! Let’s leave behind the separation…
