Based on this post
Latin@ is an ethnicity not a race
YES
Very appropriate given conversations/thoughts I’ve been having on race/ethnicity in general
Hell yes!
I am reblogging this because it is awesome but also because it makes me so incredibly happy to see things on tumblr that are already accessible Woot, woot, gardeniasandgoldchains! Thank you for the image description.
Thank you. The misuse of the word ethnic by people who theoretically are bright is disturbing. Ethnicity/Cultural grouping is not race, though it has come to be. Moronic much. One’s Ethnic predispositions say far more about one than your race.
Hallelujah…..somebody finally said it!!! Big up to all my Black Nicaraguan girls!!!
All my Afro-Latina’s in the house I see you!!!](http://24.media.tumblr.com/b3b80c5f25efd56c77005c6200f2c42c/tumblr_mlwaq9AGO41rbyol4o1_250.jpg)

South Africa: Venda Domba Dance
“The most famous of the Venda dances is the Domba, or python dance which is held annually at one of their most sacred sites, Lake Fundudzi to secure good rains for the following season. Young maidens, as the final stage of their initiation into womanhood, line up in single file forming a chain and dance in long fluidly, winding lines, like a snake. Traditionally the dancers wear small aprons covering the back and front, with tasselled ornaments called thahu.” mashovhela.com
