[quote author=]did you guys know Carnival was made to celebrate african culture?[/quote] Carnival in Africa is reductive and redundant. It's the equivalent of observing thanksgiving in the UK or building a China Town in Beijing. |

abdulkayus: Amount of clothes does not measure civilisation. British respected northerners enough to make thousands of them foot soldiers, indirect rule, and stopping the flow of moder/western education into their territory. Keep looking for foreigners approval and you will continue in disappointment. 2 Likes |

Seriously, these carnivals have legalised nudity in public places. Not in anyway a decent family TV show else responsible parents could invite their children to watch. To say I'm dissappointed with these states is an understatement. Call it self righteousness if you like, but I find the show down right despicable. What are we teaching our daughters? That it is now attractive to parade her naked body on the streets to the satisfaction of men (young and old) in the name of carnival? Tufiakwa. May God have mercy on us. |
