    I love the Maasai people❤💪🏾 they are one of the most well known African tribes. Their jumping tradition is also found amongst other Nilotic groups in east Africa, and one thing to note is that Nilotic people are more slender and VERY tall people, definitely the tallest group the planet. What I find really cool as a Cushite is the Cushitic elements in their culture like the chanting, this seems like a warrior culture similar to us Cushites although of course we have our differences. I learned that Maasai people are actually a direct mix of Nilotic and Cushitic from ancient times which is proven genetically through autosomal DNA and haplogroup markers. Anyways, love to all my east Africans💯

      @@panafrican.nation you're actually correct😅 genetic studies have shown that Cushites carry around 60+% proto Nilo Saharan DNA, so basically around 60% Nilotic related ancestry. We are both slender and above average height, there's also some sort of overlap in features. We also share similar pre-Abrahamic faiths too, for example the Dinka supreme creator called Nhialic and the Oromo/Somali supreme creator called Waaq are both known as sky deities and are the creators of everything. And pastoralism has been a central part of our cultures for millenia so there is a large cultural overlap there too.

    I went to Kenya with my grandfather when I was about ten. I have pictures of my grandfather dancing with the Masai like this. Being in the Masai Mara was probably the coolest experience I've every had in my life. We spent about a week camping out in a tent. My Grandfather actually went back to help teach a local school. I hope I can get back to Africa one day! There's so much to see and the diversity is amazing. the birthplace of all humanity ✌️❤️
