Hi: This is Sevrine Mary Rodrigues Barrie. I was born in Zanzibar and these pictures were very meaningful to me. I was touched with the history shown in these pictures and saddened by some of the memories which I recalled from some of the pictures. Well captured. Sincerely, Sevrine USA

Tipp Tip is refered to as the great slave dealer during the slave trade period, many books will never proceed to say a word on him without associating him with the slave trade. Why this important historic mark not mentioned in his remark on the 6 great zanzibari?

It's nice to see history at the peoples Museum in Stonetown. However what ticks me off is that some very historical stuff is sneaked out of the museum and sold. What is this!

Good photographs and well researched information, give us more information about Siti bint Saad, i think she has more story to tell about women in Zanzibar than Princess Salme, i mean she was more inspirational to the world ever, from Zanzibar Riyami Sultan

Because of the recent comment I made in your guest book, I have had a couple of inquiries about my book, Revolution in Zanzibar, which was published earlier this year. I told those who got in touch with me that it can be obtained at any book store, which will order it if it is not in stock, or from any online bookseller, such as Amazon.com or Barnes and Noble. Once again, your website is a treasure trove for those interested in Zanzibar. Don Petterson.

Very Well composed site detailing historical Zanzibar with pictures which is a wealth of treasure that would be useful to older Zanzibaris. Viewing your site surely brings out memories and rehashes the past in a soothing yet grwosum way. Great job in putting all this together. My suggestion would be to have some recent information, pitures to enhance the flavor.

Comment 173
Hello Bargash, After reading all the comments in your guest book and recognising a couple of names, I wrote to them. There were my friends and schoolmates and I had not seen them since I left in 1964, They in turn forwarded my mail to various others and ever since I have been inundated with mail from Zanzibaris all over the world including as far as Australia. I don't think that in any other part of the world there is such a camaderie like we have for each other, irrespective of creed or race. Thank you for giving me this opportunity to get back in touch with all these friends. It seems that everyone who has visited your site hail you. Take a bow. Mabel

Many thanks for literally bringing your website to me. When I was writing my book, Revolution in Zanzibar: An American's Cold War Tale, I surfed the web looking for additional source material. Somehow, I not find your site, which is by far the best of all I have seen. Your collection of photos and illustrations is priceless. I will bring the site to the attention of family and friends, and I will return to it periodically to read new material and revisit some of the old. Congratulations and best regards.

Asalaam Alaykum Warahmatullah, Nashukuru kupata fursa hii ya kusema machache katika mtandao huu. Mimi naitwa Mohammed Khalef Ghassany, ninaishi Zanzibar. licha ya kuzaliwa kwangu katika visiwa hivi vitukufu na kuishi miaka yote ishirini na tano ya uhai wangu, napaswa kukiri kuwa hadi sasa sikuwa nimeujuwa ukweli wowote kuhusu historia ya visiwa hivi hadi nilipoanza kutembelea website hii. Shukrani zilioje kwa mwanzilishi wake na Mungu amlipe kheri awalipayo maulamaa wote wanaouelimisha umma wake. Sikuwa nikijuwa kuwa mapinduzi yaitwayo matukufu ya zanzibar kuwa kilikuwa ni kigaro cha mafisadi wa kigeni dhidi ya raia waadham wa visiwa hivi. Sikuwa nikijuwa kumbe wazanzibari wenyewe tumekuwa tukitumiwa tokea zamam hizo kwa maslahi ya wakuja. Nasikitika kuwa huu ni ukweli uliochelewa kunifikia na kutufikia wengi wetu wa kizazi cha sasa, na kwamba sasa tunabakia kuilaumu na kuitusi kaumu iliyopita kabla yetu hapa zanzibar. Tunajiuliza hivi kweli Wazanzibari walikuwepo wakati haya yakifanyika? Ukweli ni kuwa hapana shaka walikuwepo kama vile ambavyo leo hii tupo sisi na tunaiona nchi yetu tukufu hiyoo ikimalizika kuendea arijojo. Kwa hakika hizi ni salamu za maombolezo, za ombwe na kilio. Kwamba kutoka nchi, dola na taifa huru la zanzibar, leo tumefikia pahala ambapo tunadharauliwa na hao wadharaulikao! Wakati ninaposoma madondoo ya kihistoria katika website hii nashindwa kuyazuwia machozi yangu yasiririke. Masikini Zanzibar yetu! mohdghassany@hotmail.com

I am currently doing research on the early 1960s in Zanzibar and would like to hear from any British or Americans who lived there during this time. I would love to hear about your time on the island and your experiences. I am particulary interested in the stories of those who worked either for the UK colonial office or at the US Satelite tracking station.

Comment 142
Hi, I have request... My mother, Munira Mohamdaly Esmail Jessa was born in Zanzibar in 1944. One of seven daughters of Mohamamdaly Esmail Jessa, who worked for the Ministry of Works. He had a Persian wife called, Zahira or Zarah or something similar. All my Mother's sisters appear to have taken on English names Laura, Sheila, Jackie, Lily, Fatima, there was another sister however I am unable to recall her name. I believe my mother was the second youngest. Laura being the oldest and Lily and Fatima were twins. I think that Jackie and Lily are now residing in Mombassa. Fatima was living in Vancouver, Canada with her family. My Mother and her sisters moved to Nairobi at some point, where my Aunty Laura had a hairdressing salon. My Mum, Munira, (called herself Monique) married my father Michael Gregory Mackintosh in 1960 in Nairobi. My Mum, Sheila and Laura came to the UK in the early 60's. Unfortunately, both Laura and Sheila have passed away quite a while ago, and I sadly lost my Mum in 1996. She never spoke a great deal about her family so I am at a loss as to how to contact any of my Aunts and cousins. My Grandmother died when my Mum was about 5 years old, and my Gradfather remarried, to a lady I knew as Nana May. I only met my Grandfather once when he came to the UK in the early 1970's, and I've only ever met my Aunty Jackie and Aunty Fatty (Fatima) once as well. I know that there are many cousins as I recall being told once that I was the youngest of all my mother's sister's children. I have an older sister, Suzanne and we both live in the UK. I was born in 1966 and my sister was born in 1964. If any of these names ring any bells to you, I would love to hear from you. I would so like to know my real family background. I can be e-mailed at trish.jessa@btinternet.com Regards Trish Jessa

It is very wonderful site to those who are right humans they will be able to see the difference without bias. I would like to put a few line of comments to the comment No 102 & 104. These people are not truely Zanzibaris they have the blood of their grandfathers who brought misery to the indeginous people of Zanzibar through their equation of Mapinduzi=Mavamizi. What is the product of this equation and their so called Muungano after more than 30 years to the people of Zanzibar: 1)Poverty- Compare pre & post Mavamizi, the standard of living . is an agony 2)Ignorance- The standard of Education is miserably and pity, I remember our time, standard eight is like a degree. 3)Health and Wellfare- From precious to worse, the poor Goverment for the last 30 years could not conrtol a simple Malaria!. The beatiful stone town is stinking devastated. Leader know nothig except their tumbs. 4)Hatrage & Fear, theft, corruption - Zanzibari before Mavamizi were living in heavens brotherhood was the culture. Zanzibari were not knowing Hatrage and fear prevail as a result of what Mavamizi brought. Many other calamaities beyond all comparison you name them, Karume formula(Alayhi LAANA where he is lying now) and his people. Mass graves were not the dreams of Zanzibaris. Because Karume and his fellows were not Zanzibaris they were not having sympathy to the people they wanted to fullfill their animalic desire, they were good Dhameer to Zanzibaris. They have indicted to poor Zanzibari the ill fate. You deny this, but your intelligence is not will you. I break tears when visited my home land with all the good momories. But what supprise you get people like these who talk about Arabism and they say the are Muslims. Let me ask them it is true Arabs ruled Zazibar but they brought to you Islam, manners, culture and prosperity, love and peace etc. What Karume Okello and Nyeree brought to you all the evils and you still open you mouth, feel ashamed even Shaitan will laugh you. Feel ashamed to talk about Arabs, Are you satisfied with the condition of Zanzibar now if you geniune Zanzibari. Because of lack of Shukran to ALLA. you prefer Dhulma and see mass grave is good solution, therefor you will never come up. You have tried and you saw and you will continue to see, because this is not from Karume or Nyerere is from ALLA the Almight.

An informative site. I was fortunate to have spent 1961 and 1962 in Zanzibar, a land of peace and happiness. I lived at the Zanzibar Hotel for a time, then in an apartment near Mulu Brothers on Main street. I was a Field Engineer with Bendix, building and then operating the Satellite Tracking Station. Memories of Zanzibar, oh yes, good ones. Pictures of palm trees, beaches, Old Town, the colorful dress.....and always the kindness of the people. I feel very lucky to have had the opportunity live on the Spice Island. I hope that the friends I left behind are well. Sincerely Lee Ranne

This website is indeed rich of great history of Zanzibar and its connection & influence on the East African coast particularly Tanganyika. For, it makes me remember the role played by my great grandfather Mwinyi Chamosi bin Matumula, a Bagamoyo Swahili trader, explorer, adventurer, and linguist who used to liase trade journeys from Zanzibar via Bagamoyo to the hinterland (Tanganyika & Congo).

this is a great site. I love Zanzibar. I have never been there but on pictures it's so beautiful and you can just dream abuot the place. I'm also very happen because many in Zanzibar is muslims. And that is the best thing I think. We have to spread Gods words all over the world. I just LOVE zanzibar, maybe I will move to zanzibar once and be there forever inshallah. Salam.

BLACK BRITON CALLING PEMBA UNGUJU 12 jan 2002 As a member of the British 'Royal African Society' the only valuable content on this biased site are the photos of the great man Field Marshall John okello never again will Africans indigenous, muslim or christian tolerate a racist Arab regime or their pathtetic 'arabized'African cronies. Why arent NGOs or your site speaking up for the Human Rights of non- arabized muslims, Christians, Traditional Belivers, and mainlanders resident in Pemba-Unguju (zanzibar). The CUF and their far right 'Westminster Foundation' backers have only one agenda: to partiton as many African nations as posible aka DR Congo. Their are no Human rights in the eyes of the CUF(Arab dominated party) if you happen to be a women, Christian, Traditional Beliver, "mainlander" or a non arab muslim. All power to African's Human rights and cultural identy in the comoros, mauritius (R.I.P kaya),Reunion,Bantu Somalia,Madagasgar all the way down to snow covered Marion island (STH Africa)and the far flung reaches of the Chagos islands! eurokaner1@hotmail.com
