It's a sheer travesty what has happened to the African people and their culture.This gathering is a true testament to their strength, courage and fortitude .May they be blessed and their generations be loved and cared for.For they are the roots to us all.

in germany we had something .. something magic that we super much celebrated for hours and hours .. this feeling .. feel what you hear and move your body to it.. dont thinking .. listening ... we called it techno partys... here in this video thats what i am talking about .. talking of this magic thing who has no word .. the energy .. the connection of peoples.. and now - we have a corona dominated world and doing this is a crime now - meet and dance a party itself .. all history now - love love love to africa

For those who may not know there is much more to this. If you look very well, the drummers (especially the lead percussionist in red) seems to drum exactly for each individual or group and each set of steps or dance as they come. The drums talk to the dancers and the dancers talk to the drums. If these drums were made the way we make them traditionally, then the actual process of making the drums is a spiritual process in and of itself, from the felling of the tree to the final product. Yorùbá "talking" drums are named so for a reason as they are in other parts of Africa that engage these practices. It is why the synergy between drum and dancer is so completely synchronised.

Its like a portrayal of how people interact in a social setting with going back and forth between different people expressing their viewpoint and then someone else comes in and says no its not like that its like THIS (shows their way) then someone else calmly comes and says no not like that like _this_ and then it just becomes an open space where everyone just does their own thing but they all love it/don't care which way it goes. Reminds me of real life.

just pure energy that is transformed through the drummer into sound. Something beautiful gets born when this energy from the drummer starts to take effect on the dancer. The dancer gets connected with the drummers soul, by feeling it in his bones. By watching and moving together with the dancer in the middle the audience energybodies gets connected too with the dancer. The dancer experiences himself as part of this society, this humans, this earth. The drummer, the dancer and the audience are manifesting the show of inwardly merging together. All this happens with the help of energy. everybody vibrate energetically in harmony. The main energy source this of party is pure unmanifested movement or love or god. Pure celebration of life energy and an ecstatic aware falling into the ocean of pure love energy by letting go of the self. and letting love and movement happen in the only constant and "real" of the life - the present moment.
