We Dance | A story inspired by indigenous knowledge

WE DANCE

We dance to honour our natural environment

They called us primitive

They mined our minds for Great Britain

We dance to embody our ancestors wisdom

Inspired by the sensational #Ekitagurilo dance of the #Abayankore tribe of Uganda, which I witnessed at the Ndere Cultural Centre. This dance mimics the shape of the magnificent long horn bull, swipe to see the glorious @ndereug – embodied knowledge.
