Thank you for countering all the racist propaganda up on the internet by so=called experts like Robert Sepehr who continue to promulgate the false impression that there were no great civilizations in Africa. Why doesn't everyone know about Mansa Musa. Why didn't we all learn about him and his great empire back in the third grade? What a great role model, he gave away generously to the poor and built world class centers of learning. Great job. Paradigm changing (guess that's why it's been hidden from public)

I mean, you conclude by stating that African history is as rich and diverse as anywhere else's but this is your only video about African History (centered around one man) and it's also one of your shortest. Let's be honest, broooooo.

Whomever ended it with that gold today, was the group that exploited the labor of all these groups. Color was immaterial. Slavery has been one groups business for many millennia, pitted against white for labour.

if you dont mention the 13000 slaves he brought as a present on his pilgrimage(300 years before atlantic slave trade) and then end the vid with the evil euro sob story, you are being completely dishonest

Instead of Hollywood making 12 Years a Slave movies we need more movies being made about our true Black heritage of African Kings and Queens along with the Mali Empire! This history is our real Wakanda!

My income is barely taxable and I am richer than that miserable beggar Mansa Musa, because I can buy (or even enjoy free of charge) luxuries that he could not have even imagined. For example, good dentistry.

Now we can see the mythical significance of Timbuktu. Then came the decline, and the rounding up of subjugated people for the slave trade.

Just like all other rich rulers, he became rich by treating country's wealth as his own and spending taxes for personal gain
