Please study the history of India, pre-colonial period they've always been rascist between themselves.. the untouchables etc goes way back in those regions.. as for Islam.. no comment, God is the only judge.. the only non rascists on earth are genetic Africans.. theres no debate, they have other prejudices but not rascism
I do agree with Zulaika women should be proud with they natural beauty and that include they hair, why hide your natural hair with fake and ugly weaves, I'm dating a black women and she also had this thing for weaves and but under that weave she had beautiful strong natural hair and i convince her to enjoy her natural beauty and boy is beautifull with out that weave mmmmmmm🤌
Bring her back. We loved her so mcuch. Had to send these to my nieces to watch
What a an amazing young lady. Fell in love with her Brains and the way she articulates her self is insane.
Honestly, South Africa 🇿🇦 makes me wonder whether they are really free from apartheid or it was some sort of compromise between whites and ANCZ Leaders to give blacks some political power only and leave the sytem intact
How on earth a so-called black led government and free can still have white led schools gaving the audacity to prohibit black hair ( Afro ) ?
This is really a serious problem
The white racist system is a sick system that has even traumatised our kids. Imagine being 13 and knowing that other races are racist towards you and your people, and your people have never done anything wrong to them, how do we change this? It’s pretty sad that the white system has demonised Africans for just being African. It’s sad that Europeans today will pay a big price for the errors of their racist ancestors.
Thank you for pointing out the racism of Indian communities towards African people.
Black girls must be forced to remove Wigs and Extensions. Black men must be forced to Win everywhere at all costs if it means w@r lets do it. i cannot spend 10 minutes listening toproblems and complaints. i want to fight right now i fight everyday give me a fight
Watched her do a podcast with The Ground Floor Podcast…. lets just say it was a very special chat…
No human race in this world suffer from racism than a Black race. A Black race is dehumanized more than any other race in this world, but the conscientization is slowly but surely bringing redress and ultimately the Black race shall attain its power.
this girl, she is a fighter…she knows very well…where she belong politically😊
wow!
Tittle should read : Changing my erases my originality, Ur not black they made up that degrading term black, you are the original the one that communicates with nature
This is so sad….that our entire identity is our hair?! Really??? Listening to this podcast made me realise how ignorant we tend to be as human beings. Zulaikha Patel is a stunning young woman, however she cannot relate to struggles Black women have with their natural hair (especially, 4C type). I felt as if they were speaking as if black women (particularly those who wear wigs/weaves) are blind or idiots who don't know their identity…but tying our entire identity with hair isn't ridiculous???! It's A PART of who we are , NOT EVERYTHING that we are. Have ever asked these women why they wear wigs?? The answer isn't always, "i want to look beautiful" or "i feel more attractive." . Most reasons are black natural hair takes A LOT to maintain. The hair products are expensive, there are certain electronics we must have to ensure the hair is getting all the care it needs (this is also expensive!). It's time consuming, from washing it to detangling it to combing it, etc etc. Our hair breaks when it's not in protective hairstyles (again depends on what you can afford or what your hair can take). I don't wear a wig or braids because ohhh, i don't know my identity or the colonizers say it's pretty …NO! I am protecting my black natural hair, i am student-i have things to do my hair is frustrating sometimes, i cannot afford these natural based hair products. So, it's easier to wear wigs, or braid my hair. It's a preference, no white man told me to wear a wig. I wear out my hair when it's manageable (and unfortunately, this isn't all the time). If you want to wear out your natural hair, GO AHEAD, IT'S LOOKS GORGEOUS! However, don't come here in the comments attacking, judging, hating on black women who choose to wear wigs. You don't know the full story and how would you when you're a man with no afro😢and a half black woman with beautiful big hair that clearly isn't like most black women's hair…come on guys
More Feminine energy and authenticity is what's needed, power to this divine Goddess she innerstands her true essence.❤
Most Indian man like black women maybe for sexual satisfaction or something…
