@ani1616 They hate and fear us, but rightly because we'll be their doom. Those degenerate albino mutant offsprings of ours sense it because they are our creations, a cruel joke from mother nature.

@Lavron4151 So u take all that time to look up something about Africa just to write that.U must love black people deep down. Like Most whites that hates blacks dont really hate blacks they are fascinated by them.

Wondeful work!
People who are into indigenous people should check out Survival International or Tribal Survival (if your in the U.S.).
It would be shame if such art work were to disapear.
