[QUOTE]Originally posted by lamin: [QB] There's nothing culturally amiss with the Zulus shown above. The key question to ask about any pre-modern group is "what was their level of technology before the industrial era"? In the case of the Zulus above and most of Africa the technological level reached was iron smelting and agriculture. After that, urbanisation with its usual accoutrements was not too far off. The question of clothing aesthetic configuations cannot really be settled because they are just about value judgements and subjective tastes. Of course, the West with its more or less absolute monopoly in all intellectual spheres--expressed by books, journals, publishing houses, films, research, universities,etc.--would want to project and maintain its dominance on all cultural and racial fronts. And it has worked because, for whatever reason, almost all African universities do not take learning and critical thinking seriously. Their libraries are stocked mainly with discarded and outdated texts published in the West. [/QB][/QUOTE]
