People of African ancestry can also be found in India and Pakistan.

David Fagen should have a hollywood movie, that would be an awesome story.

Thank you for sharing and covering this topic. Thank you for the feature. I love being Afrofilpina! ❤️

It's like Africa are scattered all around the world.

In the 1600 you had lots of Filipino in Mississippi. I know because my 3rd or 4th great grand father was Filipino. And lots of Filipino was mixed with the black people in the south . He was on my family tree amongst other mixtures. 🤔👍

I AM BEYOND THANKFUL TO HAVE BEEN APART OF THIS & an Example Of being an official #BlackaPina #Blasian #BlackAndFilipino Stand Up!

Proud to be mixed with Filipino and African American. 🇵🇭💯

I visit the aeta negrito village in 2019 it was amazing I as a black man felt at home

Should explore the whole polynesian section... Fiji solo mon samoa etc..

Thanks so much for sharing this!! This is the first I've ever heard of African people in the Philippines. Very interesting, & makes me that much more proud of my African heritage!!

WOW! most Filipinos do not know this, Someone gives Denzel a script because this sounds like movie material.

Thank u for tis great vid...I didn't know black fought with Philippino folk back n the day like tht...1❤

Thank you, I'm Filipino-Tanzanian :)

Thank you for sharing! I was surprised to see that my Ancestry DNA indicated Philippines. This is from my father's side. It prompted me to start my research of African slaves in the Philippines.

So glad to see you back✊🏾

This was extremely educational....thx you!!

THAT WAS AWESOME! 💖👍

Thank you for giving some credit to the Afro indigenous Aetas for being the first colonizers of the Philippines. God bless you.

Won’t catch me fighting for America. Nevah!! For none of those that traded my ancestors 🙅🏾‍♂️

Thank you for the feature! loved the video! ❤️

I have a friend in Saudi Arabia and we are Filipino.he told that he'd been in Africa and wants to go back there cause he got a girlfriend there and wants to marry her.but sadly he failed to return to Africa and then he keeps on telling how he loved that beautiful African woman. I asked him what do you love about her and he replied she got a shiny beautiful skin.

Thank you for doing all this research and putting it together!

Thank you for these informative videos.

Thank you for this video!

I wonder if i'm Afrofilipina, I was adopted so this is very interesting to me!! Thank you.

Thanks for the feature ❤️🥰

Great video, good someone's doing this kind of content. Love the accent, you'd do well doing tv news!

Awesome information

I love you for what you're doing...Power to the people.

Thanks great work.

The Negritos are Melanesian who left Africa since 40,000 years ago. They are not part of the Spanish slave trade. They are already there for thousands of years when the Spanish arrived in the Philippines

whoaaaaa......did not know anything about this.....ty for this info

Wow! This explains why I have a small percentage of southern Philippines DNA according to my ancestry results!!! I’m a Black American woman with a little bit of everything (mostly white and black) but was shocked to see Asian because all I know in my family was black and white!

I love this vid! Thank you for sharing such information cuz nobody believes me and I look "different" than what they want me to be. I also have kinky hair, dark skin, and I'm tall. I thank our grandpa and mom for the Black genes that I'm so proud to have. Mabuhay! #blackafino #afrofilipino #magandangmorenx

Very educative!

I learnt a lot from this one!

oh you did a wonderful program

The Philippines has black natives...who are not afro descendants. and the actually one if the oldest people races

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Happy to see another video in my feed again

First time I saw this channel and subscribed immediately. I was so excited when someone did a video of the Aetta a year ago. I would live to go and visit them and see this marvel for myself . Can we have more please. Different tribes were mentioned. Different Islands. More Info please

excelente! muy informativo

Wow! Always something to lean about human existence throughout the time we kno lil about.

thanks dear

I enjoy your videos so much

Love this ❤️💕

Australian museum by Fran dorey 5/01/21 the broad consensus now is that all modern humans come from an African population of homosapiens that migrated around the world and bred with archaic populations.

Wow excellent video....

Thank you sister ❤️❤️

Great video!

That’s awesome

Never heard of any of these folks but, thank you Sis..this was a great story, I'm going to follow you...ps- I have heard of the Negritos

shared to my kababayan

I’m so glad you posted this video because there is no way they can have the same grade of hair as me and not have any African ancestry

I love how the melanin Filipinas look!

Interesting facts here, ive heard reports that africans in the 1700s were far less common in the phillipines than reported here. Under half of 1 percent of the phillipines were of african descent.

There are archaeological pieces of evidence indicating that, prior to the Spanish conquest, Aeta peoples lived in the lowlands, but they gradually relocated to the hills and highlands as a result of succeeding immigrants and conquerors like the Spaniards. There is evidence that the Zambales Aeta, for example, lived in the lowlands and along the coasts and rivers of the Zambales River. The Aeta are known for their resistance to change. Throughout the span of the Spanish administration, the Spaniards' attempts to relocate them to reservations failed. Only when lowlanders established artificial government structures, such as a consejal (city councilor), a capitan (barangay commander), or police, did the political organization of the Aeta change. With the acquisition of new colonies, particularly the Philippines, in the first decade of the 20th century, the United States became a global force. It was in Missouri, in order to present itself as a global superpower, that the United States created the St. Louis World's Fair in 1904. At the time, the world fair was the most ambitious effort of its type ever undertaken. The 47-acre Filipino reservation, which included 100 buildings, cost two million dollars. There were 1,100 individuals from the Philippines living on the reservation. Negritos and Mangyans made up 38 of the ethnic delegates. In the Philippines, the Negritos were supposed to represent those who were the least civilized. Only the Pinatubo Aeta, who lived around the former US military bases in Zambales and Pampanga, were willing to engage in communication with the visitors from the United States. General Douglas MacArthur commended them after the war for their assistance to the US Air Force soldiers. They were permitted to penetrate the perimeter of the base and participate in scavenging activities there. The American special operations forces used them as jungle survival teachers as well. Mount Pinatubo erupted in 1991, forcing the United States to leave the bases. For more than a decade, the Aeta ancestral lands were buried under ashfall and lahar from this volcanic eruption, one of the largest natural disasters of the twentieth century. More than 50,000 people were killed by an earthquake that struck the Pinatubo Aeta on August 12, 1980. The Aeta people of northeastern Luzon rebuffed attempts in the 1930s to introduce farming to their culture and were driven out of the area. They were able to adapt to social, economic, cultural and political challenges with amazing resilience, developing systems and structures within their society to lessen the impact of change when necessary. The Aeta, on the other hand, have declined in numbers during the second half of the twentieth century. Environmental catastrophes and anti-people sociopolitical and economic policies have put their very existence in jeopardy for decades.

Non-African based people fear God’s introduction to world’s Black People to exist as an equal part of intelligence and decency.

I only have 1 percent Southern Philippine in me, but this video helps me connects the dots. Thanks

Great content. All people originally came from Africa. The first man and woman came from Africa. Adam and Eve were both black and they came out of Ethiopia.

So every time these people wanted to build anything they always came and got us to do it Make it make sense

Don't get It twisted, the source of melanin walked out of ONE Continent, Africa. The darker you are the closer you are to It's source.

mostly the Filipino now are Super mixed With Arab, Spanish, African Ancestors

Recent studies suggest that early made contact with madagascar natives of africa. Some word in madagascar language are also use in the country . The word Foosa in madagascar a native cat . In Tagalog pusa

🙏🏾🙏🏾🌬❤

Forgot to mention that 1000 Buffalo Soldiers stayed in the Philippines after the war and started families.

wow. I missed you

Pleaseeeee, please make one called afro koreans, i want this! thank u

hello i am brazilian living in canada

Hey friend i was going to mention the Aeta and ati and shouts to david fagin . People dont realise that there are indigenous black people every where . Many are black Americans are also descendants of so called aboriginal Americans that were here along with the africans that were brought here as well. Both were classified as "negro"

Philippines original before the Spanish is called "Islas del Poniente (Islands of the West)". They are dark in complexion, which misleads some into thinking that they are Africans living in Asia when genetic analysis shows them to be closely related to light-skinned Asians, not Africans.

This is a great video. I didn't know that there are several Black Filipina artists and also a large number of Black Filipinos born from Black men in the U.S. military and Filipina women. The Black presence in the Philippines, however, was not small. The Philippines was Black. Several of the Filipino revolutionaries had documented or obvious Black roots. One of Antonio Luna's grandparents was Aeta. Artemio Ricarte was dark. The majority of Filipinos of Northern Luzon are dark and the dark color is inherited from recent Aeta or other Black ancestors. The photos of 19th century Manila show that the majority of Filipinos were Black. The majority of modern-day Filipinos are visibly mixed with Aeta or other Black ancestors. You can find us in large numbers in the slums, prisons, countryside, and abroad. The Aeta are on reservations and thus separated from us, until they go to the city where they are in slums also, or homeless. The Aeta and us basically got separated from each other. Black Filipinos other than the Aeta live amongst Brown (mixed with Aeta or other Black ancestors) Filipinos. I hope that Brown Filipinos will come to learn about and respect our Black roots and therefore will come to respect Aeta and other Black Filipinos.

They’re not African. They’re the real native Asians

Wow, I didn't know the Americans brought African slaves here. I though the Africans here settled way before the Indons and the Malays called the Aetas. Great content. It's about time African Filipinos are getting more recognition.

My pops was full ilicano Filipino, in hs he was a 6’2” all muscle linebacker. Without doing 23 and me or whatever, is the probability of having an African ancestor fairly high?

Maybe you got it wrong also. Just one question, why is Pelegs mountain sitting right in the middle of Luzon Island? It is the highest peak in Luzon and it is called Mt. Pulag(Hebrew variant)? It is Pelegs Marker located in the Philippines and NOT in anywhere in Africa. Why?

The original inhabitants of most parts of South East Asia The Phillipines in particular were The Negritos that phenotypically do not look too different from typical Sub Saharan Africans most Sub Saharan Africans are Niger Congp As And Niger Congo Bs those are usually the people others think of when Africans as a whole are mentioned be it consciously, subconsciously, or unconsciously yeah

i have fly those ends to see our black who were taken to those asian parts

Also Filipino DNA in Yucatan. I just happened to know that because I also have that in my DNA. It also leads to Canada. Etc.🤨🤔

All Afrikan people all of the world should work together and have their own equivalent of United Nations with its headquarters in Afrika under one army, one currency and with Kiswahili language as our lingua franca.

in the time of American imperialism many of the Native in Luzon brought to America and Hawaii to become slave laborer the Aeta tribe , Dumagat tribe are members of Negritos tribe the Spanish call them Negritos meaning little black person in local language part our language they call nigro also meaning black, same part Luzon Visayas and small group in Mindanao there are many little Black people ,, they are one of the Original people in the Philippines , including the Moro tribes by the way the Muslim in Philippines the Spanish call them Moro people or Moor came to mean anyone who was Muslim or had dark skin; occasionally, Europeans would distinguish between “blackamoors” and "Arab moors " or white Moor live in Europe, is use also in English, a Moroccan ( African Muslim ) or, formerly, a member of the Muslim population So if you study carefully the history majority in the Philippines are Black skin or light Black ( brown skin )

Have we been there?🤚

Well done. Humanity needs to care more for endangered cultures. Their well-being is of critical importance. Why is there a burden of proof of migration from Africa for Black Indigenousness people? It is widely accepted, that Africa is the origin of All mankind.

I like David fagen!

Black Filipinos have not been in the Philippines from just the 1600s and they were not descended of slaves. Original indigenous Filipinos came from Africa over 30,000 years ago.

at the end of the day we all mixed even white people have african in them

Please do it with France.

Actually the indigenous Negritoes have been in the Philippines for over 30,000 years. They are related to the Black people from Australia and Papua New Guinea that have been in those regions for 70,000 years.

Another afrofilipina you missed was Marpessa Dawn Ménor she was most rememberable from black Orpheus

We Are Not Just The Philippines We are Ophir We are Mother Of All Nations We created the Table of Nations Queen Sheba named a city in the Pillipines named Shebu Queen of The South! We are The Progentiors of Man. Our indigenous Black aboriginal this was your Adam and Eves Birth Place 🙏🏽😇
