This year, the day was celebrated at the Cradle of Human Kind in Mogale City, west of Johannesburg, through music, art and talks in which homage was paid to the diversity of African Spirituality.“This is about self-love, self-encouragement, it’s about reclamation and restoration.
And also about re-affirmation of ourselves as the natives. We come from a very bad background where we have been hated in our own space. We are in an African country and we can’t walk alone leaving our spiritually behind. We can’t walk alone, leaving our ancestors behind,” said Mkiva.
Useless thing, why can't they call for the ancestral land to be returned.
No
It supposed to be 9th of May coincidence to Victory Day, and declared public holiday.
Maybe in 2030. I see I lot of sangoma in my kasi roaming the streets every day. I thought being a sangoma is a calling. Nowadays it seems like a fashion.
They are on holiday everyday mos.
Nonsense nonsense
Ba a gafa!
Ai suka
Don't they have their own holidays in heaven kanti
Eish so shocked to here Africans be so negative about the proposal of Contralesa.
What a nonsensical approach. As black people who believe in ancestors we know its ancestors day everyday because they are with us in spirit when we leave our homes to school, work and events.Whoever came with this 8 May Ancestors day nonsense just wants to emulate Western things.
So, why are you showing ditaola? It's traditional leaders, not traditional healers. Even if it was traditional healers, not all of them use ditaola.
Try July🙆🏾 may and April are already chockablocked with holidays
That is nonsense, these people are extension of National Party planning to oppress social, their getting paid every month and still ask society to contribute for whatever they intend to do.
Can’t they perhaps explore using Heritage Day to advance their spiritual beliefs and practices as it falls under African heritage. The country has an ailing economy with many holidays.
I support
🙄🙄🙄
Really baffled by this 'Ancestors' Day', who decided on this nonsense? Ancestors are with us everyday & every minute
