    Thanks for watching everyone. Tell us what you think of 'heritage trips' to the African continent in the comments below.

    I don't believe in any ancestors. Ancestors are dead people rotting in the ground.

    What about a translation Apps from the various African languages to English this will greatly aid in a greater attraction to visit the Continent. I am from Trinidad, in the Caribbean.

    Why is it acceptable to ask such harsh questions of black people? Why is it common to ask rude despicable questions as if you're a white person? Kick the spirit of the neanderthal out of yourself before addressing african people. We dont need that negativity

    The last thing the US wants is for African Americans to leave in mass groups. They would rather kill us.

  10. SupaStar VFR says:

    I was fortunate enough to experience the continent while in military service years ago. Since the day I left, it has been my intention to retire there.
    It was the first time in my life that I truly felt AT HOME.

  11. Name Again says:

    Im sorry, but as a Native Black American/ADOS I am not nor have EVER been "ashamed" about our ancestors past. I actually take pride in the fact that our ancestors survived all that they had to in order for me to be here. I appreciate this broadcast and all but, there aint nothing from us to "forget". As a matter of fact, we need to learn MORE, about our own various ethnicities. Ill eventually go to the African continent, its always been a dream of mine, but I wont go looking for some kind of spiritual completion or anything like that, I dont need to go all the way there to see how my ancestors were treated, my mother showed me on a trip down south the sharecropping farm where she had to work and pick cotton as a child. Here in the US we can just travel back down south and just look around us everyday to see how our ancestors were treated, in this our homeland that THEY BUILT after they were sold away into the oblivion. There needs to be open and HONEST dialouge if there is to be any had. Because I dont have to travel all the way to one of the many dungeons on the continent to fully appreciate the magnitude of how bogus our ancestors got done. I personally find it really strange that both on the continent and here in the states those dungeons and the plantations here both have tourism dollars generated from our ancestor's mistreatments, but none of the proceeds benefit the victim's descendants. Peace.

    Cape Coast
    Castle with its Door of No Return is a museum and memorial to the Atlantic
    slave trade on Gorée Island, 3 km off the coast of the city of Dakar,
    Senegal. 

    The transatlantic slave trade began during the 15th
    century when Portugal, and subsequently other European kingdoms, were finally
    able to expand overseas and reach Africa. 
    The Portuguese first began to kidnap people from the west coast of
    Africa and to take those they enslaved back to Europe.  The first slaves entered
    what was to become Arkansas in about 1720, when settlers moved into the John
    Law colony on land given to them on the lower Arkansas River by the king of
    France.

    The only thing African Americans have in common with Africans is the colour.

  19. Dawn Horton says:
    8 months ago

    I think the boom is good for both sides. The images of Africa in America are filled with poverty and I also think being black in America and having some connection to a place you know you have ancestors from but the only connection you know of is slavery. The conversation also reminded me of googles recent commercial about the " most searched…." Of the 10 things that were shown to be the most searched almost every single thing had black ppl in it. Black American culture is so main stream and so used and well known. People globally are invested in 13% of the black population in the United states but these same ppl seem to get upset when that 13 % is progressively and actively wanting to know their origins. I just want black ppl to know, there is nothing wrong with knowing your origins because at the end of the day, Black Americans literally drive mainstream culture and if getting familiar with your origins will help us to become stronger, I am all for it.

    African Americans in Africa are just like Chinese in Africa. They are American first.

  21. versicle platz says:
    8 months ago

    This is ridiculous… i can understand it if the program allows recent descendents but i just find it irrelevant when it comes to african americans that can trace their roots to slavery. If they go farther they"ll find that they come from mixed tribes that had lost they freedom -there was slavery in Africa, and the people who were sold for slavery in the americas were already slaves in Africa.
    So the cultural affiliation they seeking might not be avaible; it might be better to study history of Africa, i think
    And also i think african americans are sort of like the heart of story when it comes to caribbean and north America history

    I often watch Al Jazeera's The Stream, the diversity of topics and speakers is impressive and inspiring. This episode is no exception, in fact it is one of my favourites. Such impressively sincere and thoughtful speakers, I was touched by the sensitivity of thier comments on what can be a challenging subject. As a Caucasian who like many have enjoyed the fruits of others historical labours, I sometimes lament the lack of desire that many white people display in wanting to confront/heal thier own Ancestral historys. In an ideal world the benefactors and the disenfranchised might make this kind of journey together, reaching the proverbial hand of reconciliation across time and space in an attempt to better understand one another and help heal the rifts of past and present.
    How can you shape your future if you do not know your past?

    Maybe one day more people of color will identify with our roots in the northern part of the continent, as the TRUE Israelites sold off the East coast of Africa and many years later off the West coast of Africa – to the Islands of the Atlantic Ocean and the AMERICAS.

    That's when the UNSTOPPABLE POWER will return!

    I highly encourage the entire Black Sub-Saharan African Diaspora around the World to go to Africa to reconnect with their cultural heritage in West Africa & Central Africa. All of the Black populations in the USA,Caribbean,Brazil should all go to Africa when they find where their ancestors came from.

    BREAKING NEWS: " C o r a n v i r u s " is not new, it has been killing billions of people, around
    the world for more than 1,400 years. Allah said in 8th Sura, verse 17, " O
    Muslims, it is not you who kill, I (Allah) am the one, who kills. "Hadith
    Sahi Buchari @0 Allah's prophet said, "I have been made victorious with
    TERROR." In another place in the Holy Koran, Allah said, "Fight
    against the unbeliever (Non Muslims) who dwell around you, AND LET THEM SEE,
    HATE AND HARSHNESS IN YOU" (Check it out in Sura 9, verse 123). This, you
    can see in Muslims,

    Who Is Responsible ForThese Murderous Riots?

    Please Read in Holy Koran.Sura @   When your lord inspired the
    angels, (saying) I am with you,. So make those who believe (Muslims) stand
    firm. I (Allah) will cast my Terror into the hearts of the  non Muslims,
    then smite the NECKS and each finger of them. [email protected]   You (Muslims) slew them not, but
    Allah slew them………………………………………… Sura @  And fight them until persecution is no
    more AND RELIGION IS ALL FOR (reigns supreme) Allah.Sura @3   O you who believe (Muslims),
    fight those who disbelieve (non Muslims) who are near to you, and let them find
    HARSHNESS in you. Sura 64:11   No mishap comes WITHOUT THE PERMISSION
    OF ALLAH. Sura @1   Lo! Allah has bought from the
    believers (Muslims) their lives and their wealth Because the Garden will be
    theirs; they shall fight in the way of Allah, and shall  slay and be
    slain……………………………………………………………………………………

    I am all for African Americans taking these heritage trips, that is as long as my tax dollars don't have to pay for it and it's a one way trip.

  42. Katie K says:

    It's mainly driven by black Americans and one or two black Caribbean people who have deep identity issues. The reality is those of us black people who are descendants of slaves brought to the Americas are not not full African, neither by birth nor genetics, just like many of us have European blood but definitely aren't full European either. Yet lazy, gullible people are content in believing the lie that skin colour defines identity and somehow makes us the same and creates unity…

    The part that bothers me the most is there are a number of those whose African ancestry didn't even come from Ghana or any of the countries listed above. Yet those countries, particularly Ghana, rake in profits from lost and confused people. I can't blame them, I guess. One does need to achieve economic growth.
