@etancomics: Ethiopians and Black Americans

Mr Dacus Honorary Habesha 🇺🇸 :

In Addis Ababa, there's an area called Mickey Leland Street. It's named after a Black American from Texas who did a lot of charitable efforts throughout the country. Look up George Thomas "Mickey" Leland.

wadeeri :

the word Ethiopia is a word given by the Greek meaning burnt face which was given to people, black people living south of Egypt all the way to Somalia. when the old testament was translated to Greek from Hebrew, the word kush was used to describe the same black people living between Egypt and Somalia. Greek translated the word kush to ethiopia. the word ethiopia does not refer to the current geography but rather to the black people that inhabited the area. late in the 1800 is when the current country called ethiopia was established. so the reference to ethiopia in the Bible is not to the country.

✧ Pɪɴᴋ ✧ :

Sir I know you are smart but the Bible Ethiopia is referring to Africa and not our current country Ethiopia

romyeee :

I am Ethiopian. I don’t know the relationship we have between African-American and Ethiopian thank you. It’s beautiful learning new things every day.

Yes we are connected more than both diasporas know.

I don’t even understand how this can even be an issue. Every black is from Africa! It’s very sad how we hate and underestimate our self!

Amsale Tadesse :

I learned a lot from this video even as an Ethiopian myself. My grandfather was a Colonel in the Kagnew Battalion and served two tours in the Korean War so it means a lot to see this history honored.

"LTG" (long time ago). :

Throughout the world, there are individuals with unique perspectives. I am an Ethiopian, and I am proudly Black. Ethiopia is a nation that waged a courageous and proud struggle for freedom, remaining uncolonized while preserving its heritage, history, and identity with dignity, standing tall in liberty. We Ethiopians are a people who firmly believe that all human beings are created equal, that notions of white supremacy have no place, and that every individual is equal. It is in tribute to this fierce, relentless struggle for freedom and its ultimate triumph that the headquarters of the African Union was proudly established in Addis Ababa. To claim that Ethiopians are not Black is a blatant denial of the truth that contradicts our identity and history. We, as Ethiopians, are a proud Black people, and we take immense pride in being Black! Furthermore, every Ethiopian recognizes and deeply honors the precious sacrifices made by African Americans in the relentless pursuit of equality and freedom. All the rights and opportunities Ethiopians and Africans enjoy today while living and working in America were built upon the sweat and blood of the Black American community. To them—the people who paid such a heavy price—we express our utmost and enduring respect.
