The reference to 1899 The Philippine War - A Conflict of Conscience for African Americans There's a very special relationship between African American men and Filipino who have been loving Filipino women for over 100 years and also the relationship between African American and Filipino people goes back over 100 years but the pale face didn't want you to know that but that the true. "I FEEL SORRY FOR THESE PEOPLE”: AFRICAN AMERICAN SOLDIERS IN THE PHILIPPINE-AMERICAN WAR, 1899-1902 relationship goes back to the Philippine-American war THE 19TH-CENTURY AFRICAN-AMERICAN SOLDIER WHO FOUGHT FOR FILIPINO LIBERATION Angry at the Treatment of Blacks in the US, in 1899 David Fagan Deserted His Regiment and Became a Household Name Back HomeIn 1899, during a campaign on the island of Luzon to entrap the Filipino revolutionary president Emilio Aguinaldo, a 21-year-old buffalo soldier named David Fagen deserted from the American army. He wasn’t homesick. Young Fagen decided to join the Filipino revolutionaries and quickly took up arms against his former countrymen. In time, he became a guerrilla leader of such renown that his Filipino fighters called him “General Fagen.”Fagen enjoyed a good time. He was a master of stud poker, having regularly relieved his fellow soldiers of several hundred dollars on payday. He was fond of carousals, played the guitar, and lived in the camp with his Filipino wife. He was “often amusing” and voluble, supremely confident, and a natural leader. Fagen even inspired mystery, and controversy, in matters of death. With a reward on his head, he retreated to the desolate Pacific coast. In December 1901, a Filipino hunting party brought in a moldering head and Fagen’s effects, claiming they had killed the renegade. The army announced Fagen’s death and hundreds of newspapers covered the story. Only the English-language Manila American made a mockery of the Army’s account of Fagen’s killing, but that story went unreported in America and was entirely overlooked until I recently discovered it. In the end, Fagen was not a central military player in the war; the region where he fought was of secondary importance in terms of the larger struggle. But he is important as an African-American who took up arms against a country racist to the core and bent on empire at the expense of dark-skinned people. As a revolutionary officer and later as a bandit leader, Fagen confounded the American whites. He not only challenged their supremacist assumptions; he also mocked them, defiant in the face of the noose and the burning stake. Take care and God bless

Both on the weat side and stayed in Bucerias and went to Puerto Vallarta, etc., and in the east, Puerto Morellos and travelled up to Cancun and down to Tulum Visited the ruins and some of the tourist places. I was always treated with much respect where I stayed. I found the Mexican men very friendly altgough I am a mature woman. Always nice to talk to. People never acted as if I did not belong and I was always the only black person around. Will stay in Puerto Morellos again as I am familiar with the place and felt safe renting an apartment. Getting transportation by the Ado bus was easy.

It's best to travel solo. The bigger the crowd of americans you're in, the more of a target you become. I always travel solo and as long as you take an interest in their culture and language, they will melt like butter to befriend you. It's also easier to make friends when you're traveling solo because some don't want to approach a group.

Great video, it's wonderful to see this. I hope you continue to empower others to travel solo. I've travelled all over the world. I loved Dakar in Senegal.

Stephanie, I appreciate your honesty about the places you’ve traveled to and stayed. I love traveling so getting ideas where to go to and feel safe is important.✅✅

As a Mexican im glad you loved it! Visit us again, there are also afro communities in the state of Guerrero if you want to visit

I'm just going to appreciate the fact you said your Tinder was popping out here. lol. I would easily put all of these countries on my list as well. Great video and insight.

I remember traveling to Lisbon with my two aunts and I remember when I just got out of the airport and was spoken to in Portuguese. I liked Lisbon, but would like to travel to other cities if I get the chance to go back to Europe sooner rather than later.

This is really helpful! I would love to travel again abroad somewhere different after this pandemic ends.

Thank you for the research.. and happy you mentioned Philippines ..my wife is Filipino and always i feel at home..

Stephanie welcome to Mexico ,I subscribe to your channel and started watching your videos about living in Mexico and how inexpensive is to live in Mexico is very persuading to live in Mexico thank you very much for sharing your experiences enjoy beautiful Jalisco state. 😂👏👌👍

Couldn't agree more with you about Portugal! Bravo!

Wow thanks for the info Stefanie, great video

Tell me more about Mexico. I live in San Diego Ana’s want to spend 6 months in Puerto Vallarta and take weekend trips.

So happy you posted this video. My friends and I would like to travel and this helps a lot. I live in Toronto, Canada and was telling my friend that I can drive up next to a police car and they would not even look at me. They are just going about their business and not trying to pull (black) people over randomly. I can't imagine the daily stress of living in the USA. My son's father told him he is not allowed to leave Canada to go to the USA unless he is changing planes in the airport. It is sad that a list like this exists...Thank you for the video.

OMG your number one pick is my number one consideration! I just came back from Cabo. I absolutely loved it. I didn’t feel out of place at all. I’m thinking about doing a work exchange program there. Thank you so much for the info.

That list tho.. Thank you! And thanks for the video as well

Mexico!!!!!! Hehehe! How great! So thrilled you chose Mexico! From number 6, I was like "Mexico"- but you save for number 1!! I live in North Baja. My Black friends visit & have a wonderful time and marvel at the equality and interest that everyone shows of travelers. Best wishes in your future travels!

I'm happy to hear that you had a good time in my country, South Africa. I enjoyed this video, very informative. Thank you.

​@@lrrussellrussell8227 I think it would be best to know or communicate someone from South Africa before coming. There are a lot of safe area in SA but there are also unsafe areas, so its best to have the necessary knowledge first. Places like Cape Town should be very safe if you travel alone as a women, but get information about any city you want to visit before coming.

@@lrrussellrussell8227 I travelled from the US to south Africa and it was fantastic, but expensive because I was travelling alone and had to absorb all the expenses. I arranged for a car to pick me up at the airport. I arranged for tours through the concierge. It was well worth it though. The Apartheid Musuem as well as Nelson Mandela's home (now a museum) were my favorite. Lots of very creative young people. Soweto was also a highlight and I wish I had stayed there because they had very good bed and breakfast and a happening night life. Go outside your comfort zone and try it. I also travelled in the Middle East alone, Jordan, Baharain, Qatar, UAE and it was fantastic. I was glad to get home though because it was alot going from hotel to hotel.

Thank you for sharing your views. Greetings from Sweden

Checking in from Abu Dhabi. Thank you for this video. This is really dope and I love that you're showing other folks the path.

I lived in the Philippines for 2 years and loved it like a second home. I also felt welcome Spain.

Love that you made a list of your own! Namibia is another fantastic country for Black travelers. Located in southern Africa, it is beautiful and the people say, "welcome home, brother." Loved the vibe there A LOT as a Black expat.

Thank you soo much Stephanie for your run-down on the best countries to visit for black travelers. I'm soo glad that Philippines is on your top 6 list. My best friend for twelve years has been begging to come visit for awhile and I was a little worried going over there to visit. But after see your video and saying the people in the Philippines are really nice and friendly. Now i can relax little. Don't worry i'm not going to stay in Manila. I'm going to Lucena City, Philippines. It in the Quezon province in the lower part of Luzon. It also the city capital of the Quezon province.

Stephanie you deserve the world. You are wonderful! You are beautiful. You are amazing! I hope this channel becomes popular and brings you good fortunes once the pandemic is over.
