watching in 2024 from Michigan u.s
beautiful! loved listening to the songs..
i don’t know the language, but felt like the music told a story?
i really hope this culture is still alive and strong..
so many cultures are being lost.
keep your culture it’s a beautiful part of your identity 🙏🏻

I was a part of this celebration back then. I was only in Head Start from Sekere 🙌🏽🙌🏽 I remember this day like it was just a few years ago. I have a VHS recording of this day done by my late grand-uncle, Takio Syne. Waioooooo

Great to know that you participated this event! Takio was a great Pacific Collection librarian!
