These images arrived in a PDF from someone in Belgium. These are probably Mursi and Suri. The Omo River empties into Lake Turkana. Lately, it's been spoiled by too many tourists, probably lured there by images like these. Sigh....

    I think these people are beautiful and amazing. They have the greatest riches of all - each other and nature. After all, if we owned the world and was going to loan it out. Who would you loan it to...these people or the ones who believe in bigger, better, faster, more living in concrete jungles. I know who I would choose.

    They don't look happy. I wonder why that is? Some of these photos look staged. Maybe that's part of it.

    Hans Silvester worked with the Omo to achieve certain effects the Omo liked. They'll repaint themselves several times a day. They really do view their bodies as canvases. Hans Silvester is a remarkable man, a militant ecologist: if his subjects don't conform to our ideas of happiness, their culture and valleys are under assault. You wouldn't be happy either.

    You are so Blind by what u see in Society that u cant even see right. Open up your outside your environment and see whats going on. Its Exactly what "tsunamirising" said in the above statement about modern capitalism. The reason why Africans run to other Countries is because they have Security as number one key to their success which Africa doesnt have because its not as developed as the rest of the world or United even. Africa is Richer than all the world and it has all links to nature.

    Africa is destroying itself. Africa has plenty of guns and soldiers: it should have security. Africa is developed enough to build dams but not developed enough to save the Omo.

    @TubunMuzu Capitalism breeds greed, causing Africans to turn against themselves and enforce slavery and murder for diamonds, gold, medical research, etc. Without the European influence they wouldn't as ademately desire the power to suppress eachother.
