Such a beautiful song! In Antillean Kreyol 🇲🇶 by Mikado. He says "Séré mwin fo si kè aw an Vé rete konsa an ti momen" which means "Press me harder on your chest (heart) I want to stay like that a bit more" 🔥

The unbridled sexuality of the Chura dance (also known as Baikoko) from the coastal region of Tanzania 🇹🇿 is often compared to twerking in the West, but it has far more symbolism and relevance than just gyrating. This ancient dance, inspired by the frog, is taught to girls by older women as part of their rites of passage into womanhood. It reportedly helps to loosen the pelvic area and prepare the womb for an easy an successful childbearing and delivery.

They called it suicide! Sadie Mae Washington was 30 years old. A nurse who delivered over 300 babies. Killed for her brother's debt. The system called it suicide and closed the case in 6 hours. Bumpy Johnson saw a cover-up and made sure Harlem never forgot her name. Harlem, 1948. Mount Olivet Baptist Church. Sunday afternoon. Over 400 people packed into wooden pews. The organ playing his eyes on the sparrow. Reverend Adam Clayton Powell Jr. mid eulogy. Then Bumpy Johnson stood up from the second row. The room went silent. Bumpy walked toward the casket, slow, deliberate, each footstep echoing against the walls. The organ stopped, the preacher stopped. 400 people held their breath. Bumpy reached the casket, looked down at nurse Sadie May Washington, the peaceful expression, the white lace dress, the thick makeup covering her face and neck. Everyone else had seen a woman who died too young. Bumpy saw a cover up. He leaned closer, studied her neck, then reached down and touched the powder on her throat. When he pulled his hand back, his fingers were covered in thick theatrical makeup. He looked at the funeral director standing nervously near the wall. "Why is there so much makeup on her neck?" The man went pale, started sweating. Bumpy pushed back Sadie's collar, and what 400 people saw next made women scream and men turn away. Rope burns, deep, brutal, purple, and black, circling her throat like a necklace of violence. This wasn't a heart attack. This was murder. And what Bumpy did in the next 96 hours killed three men, made six NYPD officers resign, and changed how Harlem dealt with police corruption forever.

These are images of the Fuzzy Wuzzy Angels. It was the racially coded and historically complex name given by Australian soldiers to the indigenous Papua New Guineans who served as wartime carriers and stretcher-bearers during the grueling 1942 Kokoda Campaign of World War II. "Fuzzy-Wuzzy" was originally used by British soldiers in the 19th century as a name for Hadendoa warriors on the Red Sea coast of the Sudan, and referred to their elaborate butter-matted hairstyles. Under the Australian military government in New Guinea, many of the Papua New Guinean workers were conscripted into work to support the war effort, forced by Australian soldiers through threat of force or injury, or unfulfilled promises. Salute to them. ❤️

Kumina is a sacred, African-based musico-religious tradition brought to Jamaica by Kongo indentured laborers in the 19th century. It centers on communicating with ancestral spirits and deities through intense drumming, singing, and spirit-possession dancing, primarily practiced in parishes like St. Thomas. This is culture. 🇯🇲

Rise and Capoeira! 🇧🇷 Enslaved Africans(Angola) brought capoeira to Brazil in the 16th century. The slaves disguised their fighting techniques as folk dancing, using rhythms, call-and-response singing, and instruments to distract onlookers. Historically, sometimes fighters with blades strapped to their ankles or held between their toes—would swing their legs high in attack, perform aerial somersaults, and pass within a hairsbreadth of each other's knees, head, groin, or stomach. This is culture! 🇧🇷

In ancient Egypt, some women urinated on barley and wheat seeds to try to discover whether they were pregnant. Modern science now supports this ancient practice. *ignore the white Egyptians 😭

Do you know this dance was banned in Tanzania? The dance became more secular than cultural and authorities didn't like that. Tanzanian pushed back and the dance continues. But the Chura music remains banned and so does twerking. 🇹🇿
