Tiffany Tene' in Africa
Habari my friends! I am in Tanzania once again!
This time around, I will be exploring the many different districts, tribes, and people in Dar es Salaam.
Learning The Truth About Africa
The whole continent of Africa and its people have been misrepresented-We have been misrepresented-Our ancestors have been misrepresented. I discovered this fact in 2003, while working predominantly with Nigerians in the medical field in Houston, Texas.
Every Nation has its challenges, strengths, and weaknesses-but far too many times, those of us who were born in America (no matter what your ethnicity is) have only been told and/or shown the challenges and hardships of Africa.
We as African Americans whose ancestors were brought to America as slaves, cannot place all of the blame on Europeans, or the American History school system when it comes to searching for answers about Africa-Because for centuries, there have been many books, and documentaries about the rich history and cultures in Africa. If we want to learn anything about Africa, we must do our own research.

Africa is a beautiful continent filled with 54 countries-rich in culture, family, community, land, soil, resources, and melanin. I want to show Africa’s strength, livelihood, love & acceptance, and some of the many different traditions, tribes, and cultures of our beautiful race.
Starting in Tanzania!
So far in my life’s journey, 90% of the time, I have experienced nothing but love, respect, acceptance, and humbleness, not only with Tanzanians, but with Nigerians, Cameroonians, and Kenyans.
What's up with Tiffany Tene'?
I am currently working on creating more blog content and pinterest stories!
I have so much to share about my past and present experiences with Africans, that I am overwhelmed-in a good way. .
Shown in my cover photo, is a shot of me (and the Boda-Boda driver) on a Boda- Boda in Africa for the first time. A Boda Boda is a motorbike taxi, and is one of the popular modes of transportation here in Africa. Riding on the Boda-Boda is soooo much fun! I also love catching rides in a Bajaji. A Bajaji can be powered by a motorcycle, electric motor, or car engine. Watch me riding in a Bajaji in my Pinterest story below!
