Beads tell stories of Maasai culture in Kenya | DW English

[@SuiGenerisAbbie]

I love, love, love African beaded jewelry. I have many bracelets!

[@Tierone1337]

Beautiful people, I hope their culture and tradition don’t get poisoned by modern world and technology and greed

[@TurboBeads]

Stay true to your culture stay true to your roots!

[@chepkoechkatam3664]

Yeah as they've said in a Swahili proverb "Mwacha mila ni mtumwa" Anyone who denies their culture and roots becomes a slave

[@aocplusme5676]

Lol glass beads are European. Every single one was originally made in European factories. Needles too

Where are the beads from?

[@chepkoechkatam3664]

@Tappy Toes There's no Walmart in Kenya boo😂.The beads come are bought from wholesalers or made by recycling products

[@manchitas3531]

Yes but those beads are manufactured, not handmade. How do they get them? Something is missing in the history of the use of their beads..

[@msafiri6861]

Maasais traditionally made and used beads from natural sources like shells, clay, seeds, sisal and grass etc. Then with trading and mixing with different people, they started using glass, and now plastic and other artificial sources.

I hope these women benefit themselves from their beautiful work not some capitalist who exploit them, it's common in South Africa for these types of people to be exploited. Proud of my Africaness.
