@africantigress we are at 245k road to 250

chattel slavery robbed future generations of the opportunity to build any foundations. It is despicable that the law makers have not regularised persons up to now, so sad.

@@Caribbeer Robbed opportunity? Learn your history and try to understand that Chattel slavery brought the black man out of Africa and gave him opportunities in our world that he would not otherwise have had access to. It's despicable how some people still play a victim story instead of developing responsibility for themselves.

Beautifully stated! Thank you! Where are you from, may I ask?

Kindly note that Barbados 🇧🇧 is a CARIBBEAN island. It is NOT a part of America!!

@@vixen2342It is said these the Carribean is part of the Americas… Not here to debate. But look it up. However, it is mixed information in the research…

​@@vixen2342It is in the Americas in case you didn't know.

The island is very beautiful, I like how your guide is doing it... Kudo

Caribbean is part of The Americas. Dust off ur Geography & perhaps history books. Or watch a youtube video.

Surely you'd want to holiday in Africa - as in, a culture that is your own? No matter how poorly developed it is, it is your own. It's rather strange to whine about slavery, but then once released to still sit in your masters home and still whine. Build up Africa. Find pride in yourselves. Earn respect. Stop playing victim.

Thanks for the info

I know. I was like what? Steve Tikolo is is the best ever player to present Kenya

That is true the bajan guy is right. He's well versed in many things.

Not gone to barbados for 40 years why? Where is your sister ? Done wait until she dies, go and see her before its too late

I offered to take her there, but having explained in advance what the symbolism of the Lion with its paw on the red ball really meant, it was not to her liking, so we bypassed Gunhill. Im afraid you won't be seeing Gunhill on this tour. Our apologies. 🙏

He is good on sugar coating history lol ....'settled instead of enslaved '......'our British heritage' etc etc ......guy is an embarrassment to his african ancestors.

@kerubel1436 oooh I'll read the Barbados history myself to understand well

​@kerubel1436 Africans were enslaved, not "Barbados". When Barbados was first settled it had approx. ten times more Whites than Bkacks so he's right. It was SETTLED (Colonized) by the British and the ENSLAVED Africans were subsequential imported. The Island DOES have a British heritage as PART of its culture, as you can hear the language IS English. The question of culture vs heritage is a complex topic not to be overly simplified by RU-vid "expert commenters". Facts without understanding the context doesn't necessarily = "sugar coating"... Agree?.

​@@kerubel1436Do you understand the difference between "heritage" and "culture"? Tell us...

​@@kerubel1436Africans were enslaved. Not "Barbados". 😅😅😅😅

Like which countries? Aruba, Curacao and Bonaire don't have a lot of poverty, The Cayman Island doesn't, Antigua and Barbuda..infact most of the smaller countries don't. If you are talking about the bihher islans duch as Haiti, Cuba, DR and Jamaica, then yes, they have a much larger population so it's gonna be more visible.

Poverty exist in every country/ Island. but it's VERY obvious in some countries. All I'm saying IS. I didn't see any in Barbados. I didn't say it doesn't exist, but it can't be much bc I didn't see it and I went all over. No need to take what I said personally & get defensive. I've been to Curacoa & I didn't see much there either. Never been to Antigua & Barbuda, but poverty is there too. Poverty has nothing to do with size, it has to do with Government and Barbados have one of the BEST Govt in Caribbean. I can honestly say that & I'm not Bajan. Your name sounds Jamaican. IF you are, your response is typical, but I'm NOT here to debate. I simply made an observation abt Barbados & stated it. I don't live in denial. I admit, live & state Truth.

​@@winsomeg1124I recently came back from a trip to barbados, st lucia and grenada. All beautiful islands. Barbados probably had the best infrastructure but surprisingly a much higher percentage of bajans seemed to live in small wooden houses especially in the countryside compared to grenada and St lucia where most of the houses seemed much nicer.

Thank you love

You are welcome darling ❤️

You're correct. Antigua saw a strong raid/attack from the French, tho. I don't think the British ever saw such semblance of a challenge from any of the other competing European colonizers in Barbados back in those days.

It’s uploading slowly today

I heard they did a filming by Rhianna's original place of birth. Can't wait to see part two!

Glad you enjoyed it

She has done more for the country than just singing . Giving back millions of dollars in the country and supporting charities as well and so much more

Giving away lots of money is not what MOST people consider a heroic act, but whatever@@AFRICANTIGRESS

Giving away lots of money is a "generous" act, but I don't see how it qualifies as a "heroic" act.@@AFRICANTIGRESS

@@earlymann1954 why don’t you research more about it because there’s more to her than just singing

​@@AFRICANTIGRESSshe was even recognised and awarded by the government. It was very refreshing when she spoke with her people and affirmed that she is very much Bajan and even switched to local lingo

No they're not! Those losers are mainly interested in Asians & the more Hispanic looking Latinas & European women! They say they want wives, but their actions say otherwise! Those predators love going to where they can prey on poor women! I don't think Bajans would be interested in these males that favor Right Light Districts!

Evidence?

​@@vittmanvittman4915Too many to remember, but erred on the strongest currency in the Caribbean, the Synagogue, the only island to be colonized solely by the British, the trident in the flag, the first settlers. The guide is recalling "HIS-story" not history. It reminds me of Christopher Columbus "discoveries". It is what it is, to fascinate tourists.

@therealmrmaximus 1. The synagogue is the oldest in the western hemisphere, I wouldn't bat an eye at the 3 year discrepancy (1651 vs 1654). Sometimes, one slips up.. 2. What's "wrong" about the trident? 3. Relative to the currency, I THINK he said *_"...maybe_*_ the highest currency in the caribbean when tagged to the U.S. dollar.."_ (??) so that doesn't seem to be an assertion. You can recheck to see if it was more of an assertion vs. being a kind of a guess...

@@vittmanvittman4915 It wasn't my intentions to debate the discrepancies but here's my take on his errors: 1: The Synagogue was listed as the first built in the Americas not the Western Hemisphere. The original was destroyed. The oldest in the Western Hemisphere is in Portugal is we need to be technical. The oldest in the Americas is in Curacao. 2: To say that Barbados has "150+ different types of Christianities" is ludicrous. Fifty would be a stretch but more realistic. 3: The guide said "our currency, in the Caribbean, is maybe the highest when you put to the US dollar...". Not as valuable as the Bahamian or the Cayman dollar. 4: Antigua was also only colonized by the British contrary to his belief. 5: The trident on the flag is the trident of Poseidon AND it was held by Britannia. The guide said it has nothing to do with Poseidon which is not true. 6. Carlisle Bay is not another name for Brownes Beach as he alluded. Brownes Beach and Pebbles Beach are beaches in Carlisle Bay. 7: Anglicans are still the largest denomination in Barbados contrary to his view as well. He highly contradicts himself by stating earlier the island has 150+ types of Christianities which would mean approximately each "type" has about two churches. 8: His definition of a city is highly erroneous. He says "it means having cathedrals". Again quite incorrect. It's just simply a population settlement. 9: He goes on to list Cathedrals in town and mentions Bethel and St. Mary's churches. Both do not have bishops so they cannot be cathedrals. 10: He erred again by saying the Fairchild Street bus terminal ( I still use that name) is the only bus terminal where all buses travel from to all areas of the island. No truth there. He forgot the Lower Green terminal which services the north and Oistins terminal. 11: I disagree the first settlers were the English. If the original name of Bridgetown was Indian Bridge it meant others were there before and there is no disputing how ruthless the British were. So the first settlers would have to be the Arawak, Kalinago, or Garifuna or a combination of.

@therealmrmaximus A couple of notable things: 1. Portugal is 2,742.63 miles (4,413.83 km) north of the equator, so it is located for the most part in the northern hemisphere to my knowledge. Curacao is definitely in the Western hemisphere, tho... 2. Given that there are over *_45'000 Christian denominations_* in existence, it suggests that an island having 150+ may not necessarily be a "stretch." The U.S. has about 200 denominations, for example. 3. Classically, the definition of "city" *does* include cathedrals. it's just that terms evolve over time. For example, there was a time when "usury" meant lending with zero interest. Today, usury means quite the opposite... Great observations, by the way. 👍 👍

I am Barbadian and I have never heard this. I have many Jamaican friends.

Because Jamacian always called us small island i was married to a Jamacian for over 40 years.i had to add this because my children and grandchildren will asked me why youu didn't let them know we love jamacians...love the tour guide. I agreed 100% about what he said about Barrow. My beach is Miami in christ church.

It is nice to know you are friendly with Jamaican but yes I was told that's true by a Barbarian and Jamaican but I got conflicting information as to why.

Why would that be of any importance to her. All of her videos blogs are about her Barbados tour not her Jamaica tour. A bajan or an African wouldn't be interested in such divisive thinking. Actually i find most Bajans and Africans to be very intelligent when you open your ears and listen. Let the Bajans diamond shine. These are some of the prettiest and most informative videos I've ever seen coming out of the Caribbean in years. Do you not see how beautiful and clean those black Barbados people keep their country? Do you not notice their intelligence, kindness, and friendliness.? Comment on the things we are seeing. Not foolish crap. 7:03

That's absolutely not true and is an idiotic request. Many Jamaicans live in Barbados.

We're all welcome to our own tiny, insignificant, ignorant, "I cudda do betta than dah" opinions, aren't we?😊😊

Why What Did Barrow Do Wrong! ?

@maztrex3598 He did many "wrongs"... like he only set the foundation for the *_high standard of living and prosperity_* that Barbados today enjoys despite its small size and few natural resources. Thanks to Mr. Barrow, Barbadians now benefit from *_free education from primary to tertiary level, free school meals, the National Insurance Scheme, and countless other social safety nets._* Barrow's foreign policy emphasized principles of regional and international cooperation along with a strong sense of sovereignty and independence, he is famous for his quote: “friends of all; satellites of none”. Mr. Barrow had excellent relations and close friendships with his regional contemporaries and along with other regional greats like Norman and Michael Manley of Jamaica, Dr. Eric Williams of Trinidad & Tobago and Forbes Burnham of Guyana, just to name a few, belonged to a group of post-colonial Caribbean leaders who had a sense of national pride, and saw that their countries’ economic survival needed development within a regional framework. *_Under Barrow, Barbados was one of the founding members of the Caribbean Free Trade Area (CARIFTA) in 1965 and its predecessor, the Caribbean Community and Common Market (CARICOM)_* in 1973 which he described as “a giant step for us all." I'm sure if the obvious hater who thinks Barrow was "the biggest idiot" had done HALF of what Barrow did, he would think of himself as the greatest thing since sliced bread. 🙄 🙄 🙄
