Rasta Elder explains "Why Jamaicans are so Rebellious, Militant, and Successful" 

Exactly, Jamaica does have a history of the most slave revolt from Africans vs African Americans.

@@razorsharplifestyle101hard9 Why talk about Jamaicans vs AA when a lot of Africans sent to America were shipped from Jamaica? Stay on the topic of Jamaicans

Why, because you say?

RasDarioDread me rate him..very knowledgeable and intelligent

Nero Diamante Give thanks

What do you mean European descent?.. I think you meant a Jamaican/Afrikan who was born in Europe..

@@natronmeans6264 Whatever, it still is the same, it seeps through the blood of the outamany

@@martytrain It's not the same either you're an Afrikan descendant of the Kidnapped or you're a Colonizer..

@@natronmeans6264 Oh well, it seems you are saying I'm a rebellious coloniser, you have to come from African decent to be a rebellious Jamaican??

@@martytrain Affirmative.. History speaks for itself.. Your're only complaining about how much of the Spoils of the enslavement trade that you're not getting/benefiting from..

Shabat Aparaym (tribe of Ephraim).

Facts. And later on when the revolution start, other maroons of Jamaica went to Haiti to join the war and share military experience against the British to assist Haiti. But Haitians will never admit to that

@@romeomills7936 Its not a hidden fact though

Wasn't just 'took', but sold also; they sold the people who were different to them, the true Hebrews.

where did he say Jamaica is not a colony of the british in this documentary You see the only person you can disrespect is yourself for lack of understanding and hearing

Yea ,we know that its still alive here

Where is it not even Ethiopia which boasts of never being Colonized has been by there very name it wears so proudly...."Land of the Burnt Face" which was given to it by others outside of that land...see the rabbit hole is deep...this war has been going on much longer than ppl want to admit...no 400/500 yrs way longer.

@@kuntri4389 Exactly,He fooling himself even thinking the Rasta elder don't know the history of jamaica.

Cockpit country within Jamaica 🇯🇲 is not a British colony! In fact the maroons fought the British for 80 years and won.. They have treaties for their lands, and maroons do not consider themselves Jamaican

It also says, "Masters treat your slaves with kindness and respect".

Islam is the way they forbid slavery

Lol what? Slavery still goin on in Islamic countries especially the middle east. What planet are you from?.

kirk demsay what that has to do with Islam if it is happening? The book (Quran) disapproves slavery so again what is your point?

B just sayin, you pointed out that islam doesnt condone it yet it is being practiced. So kind of contradicting if you ask me

😂😂😂

you mean root?

That was Haiti

@@Lisa-xu3clno. It was Jamaica. The Africans said they recognized Jamaica as their own people from Ghana, Nigeria etc. The British records of slavery states that the fighting slaves were place in the center of the Caribbean to be punished on the island of Jamaica. They took fighting slaves from not just the Caribbean but all over the other bridging colonies in the Americas and Europe. Haiti was a French colony , and no disrespect but Haitians never really started fighting for their rights until France began to collapse because of civil war which cause slave overseers to leave the plantations in protest against not being first class citizens of France. This allowed the slaves to revolt. Jamaicans on the other hand have been fighting before, during and after being captured. They are literally fighting tribes of Africa

@@romeomills7936 even Dutty Boukman who is a historical figure in Haiti was a Jamaican sent to Haiti as punishment because he was so rebellious. The working conditions of the Haitian slaves was known as the most brutal in the WORLD. France was making a fortune from the sugarcane industry in Haiti making the island known at the time as the richest colony in the world. The greed of the Frenchmen made them export massive amount of slaves to the island to make them richer. The greed also led the Frenchmen to brutally beat and mistreat their slaves in order to scare them into working harder. These brutal conditions is what ultimately led to the Haitian Revolution which led to the slave rebellion and war that we eventually won. Understand what motivated the slaves to fight so hard and willingly risk their lives was BECAUSE of how BAD the conditions were for slaves in Haiti. That resentment from how they were being treated is what gave them strength. However it is definitely a close call between the two countries as far as which had it worst because Jamaicans are definitely intense individuals not in a bad way and I think that’s remnants from their ancestors experience still effecting many today

@@romeomills7936 also sorry you are completely wrong about what motivated slaves to fight it had nothing to do with civil war in France or Haiti especially since most slaves where running away to the mountainside therefore honestly had no way of knowing the current events and political state of the “cities” or overseas because they were secluded and isolated to the mountainside. One thing about Haitian culture and mentality is you literally would have to be Haitian to understand us and our way of thinking. The slaves had been rebelling for years but the deciding factor in when they would officially start the war was due to the thunder and tropical storms from a night where thousands of slaves gathered for a voodoo ceremony taking the weather to be a sign and omen that this would be the night they should attack and they did killing every white person in sight creating the motto “koupe tet Boule Kay” which means cut off their heads and burn their homes. Haitians are spiritual people who act based on emotion instead of logic (unfortunately) so to think we waited for the “opportunity” to attack because of the issues going on with the slave owners is silly lol my people do not operate like that

@@Lisa-xu3cl You realize that it was a Jamaican who led Haiti revolt right? And Maroons had revolted long before Haiti right?

The Africans in jamaica had the worst slave revolt is the subject.

@@razorsharplifestyle101hard9 but they had no succesful rebellion whereas in haiti it was successful and also on other small islands like guadeloupe, st vincent, and st martin where they had success in driving out the slavemasters from the islands sometimes for extended periods. The whites had to reinvade and take back the islands from the slaves. Not to forget brazil where africans actually formed their own kingdoms under their own kings and in america where africans fought a 100 year war against the europeans in florida area. All african people in diaspora rebelled and some with far more success than in jamaica

Facts. I been saying this Haitian people that EVERY colony of black slaves were fighting against oppression

@@rohaaniidaalii9758 They had successful revolt, the maroons were freed before a Jamaican went to Haiti to revolt.

Roc Steady how did you come by this?

Please stop calling us bejamin we are both the tribe of benjamin and yudah ,i am from the line of yuhdah

No only yahud went in to the last slavery .

@@tonytouch9751 i would explain to you but youtube is not the place

Courtney Minors FYI he is of Jamaica heritage..he is related to my husband grandmother who is from mandeville they are cousin Mr. Belafonte had change the spelling of his name it was Bellanfante we have documents and pictures to prove that they are related...if you want proof...

Many persons are related by namesake and hearsay but not biologically. Being a Jamaican is obtained basically in two ways; by birth or naturalization, Mr. Bellanfante does not meet any of these criteria. Until your claim satisfies these criteria the claim is moot.

He spent his early years in kingston ..Check yo fax👍

Courtney Minors Are u Trinidadian or a small islander?am getting that vibes.

Courtney Minors but the man himself said he is Jamaican so who are u to discredit him????Relax yute..we could leave him out and still have more famous people than the rest of Islands combined.

Respect to that!

garbage im inclined to believe the Rasta over some youtube comment. #AKAN #AFRICAN #WE #ARE West Africa.

I've been hearing this a lot lately & now I'm starting to believe the story about being sold out ,because all my life I wonder why did the Africans let us go so easy without a fight & meeting Africans over my 50 years I've never got the impression that they feel my pain , not once has Africans brother emphasized with me , in fact I deliver parcels & whenever I go to a Africans house the women look at me with disdain, no thanks whatsoever. It's like they know something. So maybe it's a fact that we are Israelites......

We are Akans. The people of Mesopotamia that fled to west and central Africa (including Northern Africa , Egypt) are the same individuals captured and brought into slavery. Africa at one point had different individuals of different areas living under different civilizations, tribes and nations. Thus creating a gene pool. We are literally the same people.
