    Hi sis Vee💐 looking lovely as always!
    In California we call those amadumbe-taro roots. That the best veggies close to home for me.

    Sis Vee, this is fantastic and genuine in the sense that , these kids are not into culture but also language, and traditional African attire, I so wish during Africa day on the 25th, in America black Americans will dress in traditional clothing of all the over 1000 African tribes in one place, and the whole media, academics on africa and all the African ambassadors gather there too in one place, wow, great content

      Very true. I have seen so many South Africans travel or relocate for work or study and we never forget who we are. That is how strong our culture is to us. 🙏🏾❤️🇿🇦

    Yebo sawubona Velile unjani?
    I am a South African living in Boston and there had been a South African Heritage Day in Bridgeport Connecticut a few weeks ago that I unfortunately had to miss due to a leg injury
    It is good that you are celebrating this Americans can be exposed to this.
    Those of us living up here are planning to have South African Heritage Day in September 2025. Myself and a Zulu girl will be starting to plan it in January 2025 when she returns from South Africa.

    We are doomed as Africans, how can you celebrate a heritage day.Heritage who you are so by other words it's like we are made to celebrate who we are only 1 day a year.Guys for us as Africans to be able to get respected we must value ourselves first.
