I understand you now much better, when you say you are black and proud, you don't mean that you are better than the blond people, you just mean you are totally happy in your skin color, that's exactly how it should be, that's the way I'm too, I'm happy in my German skin color. I'm not proud of what the Germans did in Namibia in 1904 to 1908, that always makes me sad when I think about it, I wasn't involved with it, but it still makes me sad, what I'm happy that Germany is trying to make it good again, that's not easy to do, I hope that Germany will do a lot more in the future, I hope that the children in Namibia will also be taught the good things what Germany is doing to help the country, let's hope and pray that Germany will do a lot more that the wound can heal, there will always stay a scar, I hope it will healed totally, that a German white man with blue eyes would full in love with a black Namibian girl. I do not want to mention too much what the Americans did to the black Africans in America, they treated the blacks for many years sometimes worse than horses. I know that's a different topic. God bless Namibia with all skin colors. sorry my English is not good, I never went to a English school, English spelling is crazy in compare the German language. PS. Please don't get vaccinated with the cheap China vaccine, my wife is from Indonesia, they using the China vaccine, many are dying after they got vaccinated.

Thanks Wode Maya, Kaylan is a beautiful Sister who has renewed my hope for African Americans repatriating to the Continent. I'm an African American who moved to Africa in '98, and am dismayed by most of the African American KZreadrs who have repatriated to Africa. Finally I see a beautiful soul with the spirit, intelligence and pragmatism required to thrive in Africa -- Attributes that I find lacking in most of the repat KZreadrs that I've been exposed to. So there is hope after all! I encourage those African Americans interested in coming home to Africa to follow the example and advice of Kaylan. If you are serious about moving to Africa, that's the way it's done. Thanks my Dear Sister and Godspeed!

Wode Maya is my favorite African KZreadr, always giving out positive vibes and supporting fellow African KZreadrs

This is the shortest 20 minute video I've watched my whole life, this is too good, guys I'm not crying 😭😭😭😭😭

This is probably true. She was on KZread before it was popular to talk about going to Africa on KZread

Let's give hands to Peace Corps for uniting couples too. I met my husband via Peace Corps too and can't wait to meet you in Otjowarongo. We live in the north and I hope Maya saw that it's more Africanised here than anything. Good interview guys.

I love her so much. She is welcome to South Africa any day. May her children be blessed.

Namibia...I know that country because of Frankie Frederick's days. He's been a true ambassador for the continent and, an inspirational for the young Africans in Sports.

Please she must continue with her volg

She is Amazing!! Yes, one of the First KZreadrs that opened the eyes of Many! Love her! Wode Maya you are so sweet to find her in Namibia and give her props! Many blessings!

If I could give 5 thumbs up for this video, I will do it. She is truly a pioneer, and I don't think that she knows that. She is right about the white KZreadrs before her. Oh boy, things have changed since.

You both are trailblazers. I've been a fan of you both since day one!

Beautiful! Born in Ohio then moved to Georgia but I’m going home to Africa!!!

Ms. Kaylan is an absolute class act and I cannot thank and appreciate her enough. I was thinking of moving back to Nigeria a few years back when I came across her channel and was struck in the same way about her videos as Mr. Maya spoke about in this video.

She definitely inspired me as well to start my youtube channel. Great idea about the unifying platform for all diasporians. Nice interview Wode Maya🙏🏾🙏🏾

Kaylan is a breath of fresh air. I love her channel. Thank you Maya for this interview. Thank you Kaylan for what you do.

I LOVE Kaylan..I followed her for so long (even before you started schooling in China,,Wode Maya) ..she truly is a trailblazer, a pioneer, very very brave..she believed in Africa as an African American...I am glad to see her on your channel because I knew that Africa may soon get to her..I perceived she needed a "booster"...Yeah, she should come to West Africa..maybe soon I would sponsor her trip to Naija...but it's good to see her here...And that conversation between African Americans and Africans..even still going on with my Nigerian brothers in Yankee..I am very very involved. It's part of my calling...that's why I got to know of her..CONGRATULATIONS on her new baby!!

Maya, so glad you made the effort to find Kaylan; an exceptionally brilliant and decent human being! I've been wondering why she's been gone from KZread for so long but understand why now. Congratulations to her on the new birth and many blessings to her and her family.

Youtubing was more of a hobby for her,more like telling her story back when it was not yet lucrative,she had a job as a teacher at that time,plus her husband works.Hence she does not post daily,unlike recent arrivals pretty much live off on you tube hence the more daily videos,at times 3 videos a day .I remember another old school you tube family called ''Life's humble hunt''. They were offered jobs in Liberia in the Medical field so they vlogged about their lives in 2017-2018 as a hobby.They took time to travel to other African nations on holidays and vlogged about it too.Once their work contract expired,they started a business in East Africa and stopped vlogging all together.The channel has been offline for years now,but they settled in East Africa and are running their business there. So their repatriation was a success.

SAY IT WITH ME! AFRICA IS TODAY & TOMORROW! Greatness is upon us!

Maya when you go to the Caribbean you'll understand how much of the African culture was maintained. That's why Caribbean people are more adoptable in Africa . We are like mini Africa except no fufu. Our ancestors would've gotten whipped if they weren't in the fields working instead of pounding food.

Its why I was excited to hear that Air Peace now does direct Flights from Lagos to Kingston,we need to connect more with Caribbeans coz we have much more in common.Ghana also waived Visa conditions for Jamaicans,Barbadans who can visit Ghana without a Visa.Its a step in right direction.

@@mustaphastjules1194 Hopefully Africa can have another Black owned Airline like AIR PEACE that can do direct flights to Barbados.Also we Pan Africanists are now lobbying for the Africon football tournament to start having Guest teams from the Caribbean on a rotation basis.That way we can have Haiti,Jamaica compete in Africon,then next time we have Barbados,Trinidad and so forth.We need to connect more with Sports,business and trade.Its only way to break away from this disconnection .

I don't know why this channel isn't at 5 million, I love the 2 way bridge that Wode Maya creates between the diaspora and Africans, this is powerful and we need more.

I miss her uploads, I used to watch her, hopefully she might start posting again

Love the sister, used to watch her videos and since I loved Namibia she inspired me to relocate to Namibia from South Africa, then came the Plandemic and messed everything. However as soon as things get back to normal, I am out. I cherish both of you guys and may our Creator and Anscestors bless you to your 13th generation.

Really miss this lady and always wonder where she is,I would go to her channel and realize she's not uploading. I'm extremely happy to c her,Maya u did it again u are still the best.

Her Mother side is from Barbados. Family history connected to West Africa, Ghana in particularly. There is not much of a difference here being an African Jamaican with similar connections. So splendid to hear this. Great!

Conversation between a Queen and a King...Simply beautiful.
