@tan j maz I read your other comments and just to let you know America is a country if immigrants. The only real Americans are the native indians. You understand America is a country of immigrants? Unless you are native American. America was founded because of the British and the Spanish who went over and colonised the land slaughtering native Americans, and who brought slaves over to build their mines and trains from Africa, China, south America and more.

Three things: "Africans who live in various countries in Africa don't think of themselves as black. That's an outside observation. Before people boarded those ships they belonged to this ethnic group or this tribe. That's when this thing called 'black' was born. Where do we put our sorrow? Where do we reconcile our history and where do we reconnect with our heritage? All of us look for a touchstone..." 2:04 "...take that sense of adventure and pair it with social responsibility. That's when sparks fly." 11:32 "...my dream for (other) black folks around the world is to be able to exist inside of their wholeness and to have people see that and recognise that." 15:59

It was easier to find the Titanic in 1986, that sank in 1912, but no one is bothered with the 1000 shipwrecks that went down to the bottom of the sea during the slave trade. The lies continue up to today, and it is our responsibility as black people to acknowledge the painful loss of our ancestors in order for healing to take place.There is still so much to do and hopefully one day, we will discover them and will be able to rewrite this tragic history of our time.Thank you so much for this documentary, I will certainly pass it to my children and great grandchildren so that they can know who they are as a people.

If it makes you feel any better, the mission to find the wreckage of the Titanic was a cover story. They were actually looking for a nuclear submarine and its nuclear torpedoes that the US government had lost and didn't want the Russians to find out about. Actually finding the Titanic gave the cover story airtight credibility (at least until this was all declassified a few years ago).

@@nancydreiling7 i also don't think there is a valid comparison between the two. again, one is a much more recent, intact and well documented wreck, of one of the most famous ships in history. the others are an assorted collection of much older, and possibly unidentifiable ships that no one has ever heard of. it's a tragedy and a travesty, i'll give you that, but just look at the wreck in the video. no one, apart from underwater archaeologists, could even identify that as a ship wreck. and as for the money thing, there are literally hundreds of spanish treasure ships that were lost around the same time that no one has found. millions of dollars in gold and silver sitting at the bottom of the ocean, and no one has found them. it's not for a lack of concern it's just really, really, ridiculously, hard to find 200 year old wooden boats at the bottom of the ocean. the ones that are found are usually very famous or their location prior to sinking is well documented. for context, the most famous shipwreck in canadian history, where we have journals and oral reports of last known position, has never been found.

This was so emotional to watch and I have just the overwhelming feeling of “I’m so sorry”. Here you have people who have ancestors that have gone through horrible and sickening things and then have been cut off of the human want to belong, to find out who you ARE, and where you come from. I can never even begin imagine all of the feelings and struggles. This video hits on something so important that’s going on around us today and that to me, the black lives matter movement goes this deep. That black lives MATTER and the all pain and struggle needs to be recognized from all the way back to when slaves first arrived until now.

I have been educating her about our history and culture. And I noticed you my brothers and sisters have been lied to for so many years by the media . They don't want to let you know your history... There's so much that have been hidden away... Take a trip to any country in Africa ( especially by the Atlantic ocean or West Africa ) and you'll understand better.

Watching this video is so educational. Moving and inspiring to me. Excellent thankyou. Our black history searched out and discovered under the sea. So honourable how they divers pay tribute to the lost and forgotten slaves on the ship. 🖤❤
