Stringband song performed by Ngenge Sasa and his band at the Balopa Cultural Festival in december 2006.
The purpose of this enormous festival - the largest in the history of the island - was to revive old cultural traditions, get the bored youth involved in meaningful activities and thereby possibly attract international tourism and money to the island.
The video is part of a larger anthropological film project which deals with the ways Baluan people understand themselves, their culture and their possibilities in the new global reality. Apart from the extraordinary cultural performances the film focuses on several local debates, which evolved during the festival about what Baluan culture and tradition actually consists of and what it may and may not be used for.
Beautiful! Amazing vid!

whatever some white people did to your people in the past are not representative of modern whites and certainly not me. instead of bewaring whites you should beware of religions, including your own, and beware of using the same blanket logic that befell your oppressors and not accuse a race in general. To sing about a skin color lumped together is just as racist as the racist people that oppressed you. Human suffering and abuse from authority is universal, and women and children suffer the most.

"afrocentrism is basically ''dont snitch''!" Bwahahahahhahahahahahahahahaha I just had to laugh at this. "with no blood on their hands in the history of the world" Yep we are not as cruel, barbaric and savage as white people (^_^)
.
"always ''blame'' somebody else for you're problems, it's never ''our fault''" By somebody else, do you mean "white people" ? If you want it to stop, well stop being so evil and acting like the spawns of Satan on Earth!

@goyavesETmangues wrong.afrocentrism is basically ''dont snitch''! it truly amazes me that if you listen to a great number of people of color, that their race is the ''only'' pure peoples' with no blood on their hands in the history of the world.you're race is the most hypocritical in the world, always ''blame'' somebody else for you're problems, it's never ''our fault''. please don't respond back because honestly that same old song and dance routine is played out.

You seem to like Wikipedia A LOT (^_^). Well google the world "colonization" and click on the Wikipedia link. I advice you to read the page and also (very important !!! ) click on the maps to see the different colonial empires. Your Estonian weak ass will have the shock of its life !!

Anyway, thanks a lot for the laugh, even with all the luck in the world, it is very rare to meet morons with levels of stupidity comparable to yours (^_^)
