Mauritania: is it Arabs or Africans? Many want to know who are they

CLEAN UP THE STREETS PLEASE,,,CANT LIVE ANYWHERE WITH NO TREES,,,

I never hear Mauritania mentioned much unless the issue of slavery is being discussed. You heard me right, slavery still goes on in that country.

I DESIRED TO SEE HOW IT LOOKED IN MAURITANIA. THE MUSIC SOUNDS VERY SIMILAR TO REGGAE MUSIC.

THANKS FOR THE VIDEO.

Were they all there on the continental lands before it was called Africa (another proud European labeled)? There is no country/continent called "Arab." And like so many (ole) terms and meaning, the said Europeans renamed/relabeled and redefined and defined many different social groupings of people are said to be so proud to be referred to as today. Even though, some of the group labels are still (denotatively, the said literally meaning) negative.

Most (cultural) said Arabs are either African or Asian – residents or descendants.

There is no absolute phenotype of a said Arab, like there isn't of any grouping. Smh. I have no identical. I can easily point out my parents, siblings, etc., from another that refers socially as a racially Black person.

It's the continued association with the slave mindset/conquered mind that has so many indoctrinated still to envision created said stereotypes/stereotypical phenotypes of a subdemographic or main demographic, etc. Like all the man-made religious/spiritual beliefs, too.

$500 for a market place a month and the whole place is owned by one person. The price fees predatory. You have to sell at least $17 a day just to go towards rent. This is the neglect of African governments. The government should be owning such kind of place and offering reasonal rental prices.

That's my hometown,I was born there,but I hate the place,no good memories,I am one of the lucky ones,I got out a year before the "89-91 events" when the beydan(That's the whites in their own language)controlled government attempted to wipe out the black indigenous population(except the harratines,the enslaved),over 250000 amongst the wolofs,the soninkes,the fulbes were expelled out of the country,we were told we were not Mauritanians but Senegalese,malians,no one knows how many mass graves exist in the country,we know that 28 black officers were hanged on the 28 of November to celebrate the anniversary of the independence,my father was amongst those arrested tortured but lucky to be alive,the massacres stop because of the first Irak war,so a bit disappointed GB did not dig into that chapter,also slavery is still practiced in Mauritania.peace stay away from the beydans and islam

Mauritanians are black African people who have acquired Arabic language due to religious and cultural influences! But they are not Arabs! No more than Spanish-speaking people in Latin America are Spanish or African Americans who speak English are English!

I visited Nouakchott, Mauritania a year or so ago and really enjoyed my visit. I live only about an hour away from the border in Senegal so I traveled by car. Road tripping into Mauritania was stressful, to say the least even though We had a friend have her network of people meet us at the border and assist. The whole process of both entering and leaving the country was so challenging I felt like the govt doesn’t really want visitors. It may be different traveling by plane. One thing I noticed was the women who wore gloves and socks in the hot Sun in addition to all the layers. This, I was told, is done to avoid getting darker. I visited the same market shown here. I loved the shopping, access to tech, and Moroccan herbs and other goods not found where I live in Senegal. I also loved the wide streets and the beach was clean and gorgeous. Bought fresh fish right on the shore at the fish market. I felt really safe and the people were very friendly. Found a few English speakers there as well.

Mauritania the land of one million poets due to the numerous Islamic schoolars. The country is rich with natural resources with a population of 4 million only , the country landmass is bigger than 3 or 4 time than senegal. The country is divided with several ethnic group the puular. The moors, the haratine black moors, the soninke and a small percentage of wolof. Throughout history Mauritania is known for practicing slavery the so called moors arabs had the black arab in captivity for centuries and lot of them didn't have the knowledge of themselves thinking they are arabs . We the puular are trying to wake them up.

👍👍👍❤️

Great video,. I don't know if you did any local history of Mauritania, but I heard and read some stories about the country. It hasn't been so long ago that Mauritania had officially got rid of slavery. The Arabs had enslaved the black Africans, and some were kept hidden in their Arab homes made to work and do as the Arab's wanted with no freedom to escape. Have you heard about the slavery in Mauritania?

Thanks for sharing. This would be a big adjustment in environments for many. Being actually in the desert. The sand and dust probably coats everything constantly as well as needing to breathe it in if it were windy. For sure proper clothing is essential.

Wow, you went to Mauritania without discussing the enslavement of our African brothers and sisters by those Arabs/ Berbers! The Arabs/ Berbers are a very small minority in that country, or about 30% of the population and they control the entire government and civil service. They like to pretend that slavery does not exist in that country, but if you venture out into the country side you will find black slaves with their so-called “white” masters. They still practice a form of chattel slavery reminiscent of the American slavery of the 18th century, using the Muslim religion and pseudo-Koranic verses to brainwash people. The black Africans and anyone of indigenous African descent from countries outside Mauritania are considered free slaves, including Goblack, himself.

At the end of the day, those nation’s & civilizations that obeyed & spread the word of their creator will remain while those who transgressed will be replaced by other nations that would either be better then them or colonized as a punishment until they repent & return to the word of their All Mighty Creator.

Africans are not good at swimming because the wildlife is dangerous. Europeans swim well because they wiped out every dangerous creature in Europe. They swim good because they killed everything.

My favorite African country.

Africa most be independent from religion of Arab Islamic and west Christians in Africa. Religion was first colonial in Africa b4 administration government exploitation colonial of d west.
