Vul’Umlomo: Conversations on Culture | Culture & Tradition | Episode 1

Throughout history, societies have always been defined by their culture and the traditions that go with it. The ideals and rituals that have been passed down from generation to generation have been practiced but not always understood.
The Vul’umlomo: Conversations on Culture is a platform where real discussions facilitated by experts and individuals who have a strong understanding of it unpack their thoughts. Our esteemed panel will take a closer look at culture and tradition, gender in culture, the value of keeping certain rituals sacred, marriage, polygamy and how they affect modern day society.

Baba uKhoza must create his podcast. There's more we can learn from him

[@spha325]

I love the way this young king 👑 is explaining the traditional ways of us black Africans ❤

[@nadea2645]

This shuld be on television to reach a wider audience

[@viceroysouthafrica5476]

It starts off with promoting cultural lessons through these types of conversations! #CharacterShapedByGenerations

[@noma8095]

Pls put it on TV aswell I agree aswell

[@sithuthukilezama8744]

“Duty supersedes personal preference” powerful! That is how legacies, dynasties and families are built. If we knew the power we hold when we value the structure of family. And how it benefits us to build. We’d value each other more! Submission is inspired by leadership and respect. You can’t build without intention.

[@viceroysouthafrica5476]

This is a valid point, through all this, culture and tradition becomes less confusing even though time keeps on changing. #CharacterShapedByGenerations

[@roselyndete9007]

Very educative indeed.

[@thabangpetlele2421]

This is the kind of history I would love my kids learn at school. As Africans we need more written literature to make reference to. This will enable us to integrate our history, tradition and culture into our curriculum and pedagogy. This he said, she said is not sustainable. Thanks to Nyeleti for the recommendation.

[@mandlambuyazi7916]

That's my wish too

[@viceroysouthafrica5476]

We completely agree with you Thabang. By having these conversations we aim to educate the next generation. #Vulumlomo #CharacterShapedByGenerations

[@tokolohomokoena7882]

Robert is A QUALITY HOST

[@noma8095]

U bab ukhoza uzifundephi lezindaba zimnandi boh!!!!🎉

[@nadea2645]

I have forgotten what an all rounder Rob is ...I just have him pegged as a sportsman but in reality , he is a newsman, a talkshow host on top of being a sportsman. How i wish to see this show on tv.

[@viceroysouthafrica5476]

Unique Individual! #CharacterShapedByGenerations

[@smangelehlongwa6719]

Wisdom kaBaba Mbuso Khoza 🙌🏼

I'm saving this, for my kids.

[@ntombiyenkosimbatha48]

I'm looking forward to seeing episode 2.So much value in this information.

[@mthokozisithalente8736]

What a conversation, the manner of approach and the respect exhibited by the guest on one other even when there's a disagreement. Well done 👌🙌

[@ayandamadywede2901]

Wherever Marawa goes I follow him just subscribed

[@viceroysouthafrica5476]

Thank you 🙏 #CharacterShapedByGenerations

[@lebohangsekhobo8367]

Very refreshing content we need to interrogate our tradition and ask questions that aren’t really asked. Because I personally have so many questions just by watching and it’s more of wanting to better understand than opposing. The diversity of the panel is also fresh and as always, TOP HOST.

[@viceroysouthafrica5476]

The best way to just start having these conversations. #CharacterShapedByGenerations

[@mgabimpiloh]

Agree so much! Top host!

[@princesfiso4975]

I wish Mbuso khoza had enough time to speak .....

[@viceroysouthafrica5476]

Stay tuned for future episodes! 🙏 #CharacterShapedByGenerations

[@saml.4482]

Dr Bishop Jess just drops so much gold. The whole panel to be honest. More conversations need to be had.

[@maphalaseakamela1539]

Those pre-arrange marriages have a longevity than the" love at first sight duf duf my heart skips a beat "i have seen this with my grandparents from both sides and with their friends ,neighbours and colleagues.

[@viceroysouthafrica5476]

On this channel it will always be available! 🥃 #CharacterShapedByGenerations

[@SirThaboSetlhapelo]

Fascinating, I see the elders have a challenge of agreeing with the young people.... They nod at each other when they talk and don't nod when the young ones talk.

[@theodoramaduna6090]

Dr Bishop for President of Africa. What a powerhouse. She’s the resemblance of African Renaissance

[@mandlamboba108]

[@DweluAnanzammnqarhwana]

This is spectacular. This is exactly what is needed and the honesty of the guests.

[@viceroysouthafrica5476]

Hi Dwelu, thank you for your feedback🙏. We're delighted to learn that you enjoyed this conversation. #Vulumlomo #CharacterShapedByGenerations

[@unfolding_pblo]

This is such an engaging conversation, I'm so keen to learn and listen from all four perspectives 👌🏾

[@viceroysouthafrica5476]

There is more points that will be touched on during the #Vulumlomo Conversation on Culture. Please do keep an eye on our pages to hear what the panel has to say.

[@neogaebee9944]

This was very informative I learnt a lot and I like the fact that there were some fresh young faces in the mix they brought some relatablity especially from a modernist perspective, I do however would've like to have more time on all the different topics just to find out more I feel like they were a little short but that's maybe because I was enjoying it so much. Great work, more of this is needed 🙌🏾🙏🏾👌🏾

[@viceroysouthafrica5476]

With the right intention, the conversation will grow. Stay tuned for future episodes. 🥃 #CharacterShapedByGenerations

[@OkuhleMtilwaKaMjoli]

Very important conversations and its nice to see our Bevs promoting culture. I was so happy when I saw castle milk stout supporting the call for African cultural day last year. This makes me so happy. The conversation is continuing. This was so nice to watch. Thank you so much.

[@viceroysouthafrica5476]

We absolutely agree with you, thank you for watching #Vulumlomo #CharacterShapedByGenerations

[@fionahmotsai2975]

The time is too short we need more, loved it

[@ZenzeleMfayela]

This is such a wonderful conversation…💪🏾💪🏾

[@viceroysouthafrica5476]

Hi Zenzele, thank you for your feedback🙏. #Vulumlomo #CharacterShapedByGenerations

[@obakengmonageng7958]

I'm glad I came across this! But its too short... I feel like I can watch hours on end!!!

[@viceroysouthafrica5476]

Keep your eyes peeled for the next Epsode coming soon! #Vulumlomo

[@emaransat3972]

This is needed, but I hope it can be a documentary also so that the history can be documented.

[@nomkhosingcongo5069]

Mhmmmmmm I'm out of words😭🙌🙌🙌🙌

[@tshegomothupi8166]

What a beautiful show

[@nontsikelelompanza6327]

Revitalizing.

[@mondehlongwane1567]

I wish this was longer

[@viceroysouthafrica5476]

We have more episodes for you in future!

[@tshepomampuru7701]

how i wish this episode was an hour long.

[@viceroysouthafrica5476]

Stay tuned for future episodes. #CharacterShapedByGenerations

[@syondlasithole1454]

I couldn't agree with you more Tshepo, this conversation was restricted by time.

[@ntokozomemela985]

Really enjoyed this. That last question honestly needs us to shift mentally. I feel short fed like there was still more to be said.

[@viceroysouthafrica5476]

Interesting point you've raised there. Please keep an eye on our pages for the #Vulumlomo Conversation on Culture to hear what the panel has to say further.

One Afrika! Thank You Viceroy!

[@viceroysouthafrica5476]

Hi There, thank you for tuning in🤝. #Vulumlomo #CharacterShapedByGenerations

[@wisewurdz5719]

This is a very nice and balanced discussion, I implore you to take if more widespread. Love the voice of the host

[@viceroysouthafrica5476]

It starts with one conversation, that we hope will spark further conversations offline. 🥃 #CharacterShapedByGenerations

[@Gladys_772]

We need this on like Showmax

[@hilarygodfrey2348]

The young man is true about polygamy. The same woke mindset that is telling us to have as many sexual partners before marriage is telling us that polygamy is bad.

[@jobesithole5590]

We have been colonised so much. Even discussions on the ways of our forefathers are being conducted in the language of our dominators. No wonder so much is lost in translation. Subtitles hardly do any justice.

[@godpenuel]

Brilliant initiative by Viceroy 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 I really love uMbuso, and could feel his frustration when some of the panelists were talking nonsense. Sad that he didn't sing. A lot of misinformation from some of the more modernistic-minded panelists, excuse the pun. Trying to mix feminism & individualism with culture, which is based on uBuntu.

[@viceroysouthafrica5476]

Culture will keep evolving, due to lifestyle and technology. #CharacterShapedByGenerations

[@mgabimpiloh]

I love Mbuso Khoza as well.

[@retsenateng]

Please invite Prince Shole to your show. I think he will share more as a young person on traditional leadership, culture, and how is it being young royal in modern times.

[@sibusisozwane9476]

More episodes are definitely needed

[@viceroysouthafrica5476]

And more episodes are on the way, keep an eye on our pages for the #Vulumlomo Conversation on Culture to hear what the panel has to say further.

[@bonacreator]

Brilliant conversations...I feel like the editing is not doing justice though...we need to hear more from the panel

[@viceroysouthafrica5476]

Hi Bona, thank you for your feedback🙏. We will look into making the conversations a bit longer. #Vulumlomo #CharacterShapedByGenerations

[@tawvnmgmt7744]

The lady with the Xhosa regalia looks the part but is not the part. The question was 'why are Tsonga and Vendas at the bottom of the cultural totem pole?'. She's giving guesswork answers, instead of a proper, thought out answer. A lot of this panel is sharing opinions instead of facts. We should also stop acting like Africa was ever homogenous and that we all thought in the same way. Some West African cultures sold each other into slavery and invested in the Atlantic Slave trade. Some South African tribes joined forces with colonisers and fought their fellow African brothers and sisters on behalf of colonisers and if you dig deep enough you may find that that's why Tsonga and Vendas are at the bottom of the totem pole. Stop trying to rainbow nation-ise everything and just be TRUTHFUL, *with facts* , about history.

[@tebogo81]

This is too short. Lets pitch a television show to reach a wide Audience.

[@katlehochabedi0803]

Can you please add Sotho and Other tribes so that they can also define culture and traditions from their part

[@lwandosoyizwapi266]

I feel this show has been edited alot and it is lost along the way.

[@refiwemnguni9963]

WOW

[@viceroysouthafrica5476]

Thank you for tuning in. #Vulumlomo #CharacterShapedByGenerations

[@ednamosieleng1746]

My mother is Tswana &my father is xhosa,my parents were never married,I grew up in my mom's side so I consider myself Tswana, but my mother was born &grew up in Capetown same applies with my dad,now none of these families believe in culture and I've never witnessed any cultural practices, because they say there's no such,so I as an individual I would love to teach my child and the next coming generation About culture but I don't know where to start,and even putting traditional rituals such as umqombothi 4 EG,and consult my family theyl start saying I'm insane,or have me arrested,where can I begin b coz I believe there was history before colonisation

[@nkanyisokenneth9399]

Very insightful and informative, but I feel as if there's so much gaps within the conversation. I don't know if there's too much edits going on that you cannot connect what the next speaker is talking about. At some instances you'd be drawn to that particular discussion then when it shifts to the next speaker it's a whole different conversation. Please look into that. Nonetheless it's a very interesting and informative conversation.

[@viceroysouthafrica5476]

Hi Nkanyiso, thank you for tuning in🙏. We are happy to learn that you found this episode insightful. #Vulumlomo #CharacterShapedByGenrations

[@thulanigwala1404]

I think I blame Penual the Black Pen for this lol. On this episode, I didn't get anything. Too much editing because everything must fit to this 30-minute episode. You end up getting a glimpse nje and lose the point of it all. Uthi usabheke lokho, ba introducer a new point, kanjani we didn't even get the old point. Ngathi I was watching highlights and the discussion ikhani izoqala manje. TV must stay on TV if they are not willing to give us the rawness of the conversations. Here on youtube, we watch 2-hour conversations.

[@bmshik]

This was too short

[@hlengiwemashobane9400]

The Bishop😢, I do not understand her. Candice makes sense, babKhoza is a teacher❤ young gentleman is a true traditionalist.

[@emmersonmusimiki9665]

the small boy has big brains bigger than that white hair old man he understands culture

[@georgenkosi7423]

Why in English?

[@noma8095]

I wonder but ke I can't speak Sotho no twsana🎉

[@hilarygodfrey2348]

Candice Dube is more confused in this debate. Everything is not changing. The creation week remains unchanged. It's up to you to think that you're changing genders. Whether you want to provide money or not. Your commission as a female gender is that you're the custodian of the children. The most important is your choice of a male to have children with under the guidance of no sex before marriage. It's pointless for you to talk about the male gender when your own choices of males are messed up. Arranged marriages were not wrong, the evidence we have is the divorce rate after you now have choice.

[@EmmanuelNwele57]

You have a modernist, in a conversation on culture and tradition. What is it your trying to focus on? If your cultures and traditions are finite, and a modernist is in your presence, where is the problem... this is why your having this conversation, as your traditions are being washed away by modern ideas, in the first place. To Mr Mbuso Khoza. I wonder if you believe the bible to be a book of recording (history)? I don't know what you mean when you say, Christians use "byte", and be it for praise... those aren't Christians. However that's not of importance. You mentioned once again that Christians would say, "God said" and there would be no proof. God doesn't need anyone to speak for him, and I will tell you how using your own statements. You use nature. Saying one should "use nature to tell us how to live." Know when and where it's appropriate to do things. Order... nature is structured and ordered. Based of principles that are above and beyond the understanding of human being. Hence why we one would study it, as to reference and understand it, to form their habits of living. When one saize, "God saize" if this person doesn't make reference to where it was said (the proof you where talking about), it's incorrect. My question stands, is the bible a book of recordings to you? The same way traditional and it's founding are recordings to you? Be it nature, it came from a source (God). The same way we came from someone, the same way the clothes you wear came from someone (design). It's not just a happening.

[@viceroysouthafrica5476]

Interesting points you've raised there. Please keep an eye on our pages for the #Vulumlomo Conversation on Culture to hear what the panel has to say further.

[@koketsophali2220]

honestly, what are those two women doing there coz they have nothing contribute

[@hilarygodfrey2348]

This woman is speaking nonsense

This episode is so well put together and is extremely educational. Thank you to everyone who came together to produce this and be a part of such a brilliant piece of work 🤌🏽
