A Patriotic Youth Movement on the move.....

Postby Warsai » Mon May 11, 2009 9:31 pm

The past few days there were a few nay-sayers knocking Eri-youths not sticking to the roots and becoming too "Americanized"....i'll let you see what being done world-wide by Eri-youth to keep the torch of our martyrs lit.


This is to show that no matter your age...everyone has a responsibility to their respective motherland. These are youth age 15-30 getting ready to accept their roles for the next generation.

LOL...what up Advo, i just knew you was around the corner... your right majority of the attendees were from Europe....there are always two major conferences every year one in Europe and one in the STAAAATES playa! :mrgreen:


Enjoy these clips from a recent conference in D.C. 8-)

the guys singing in this clip is actually a homeboy of mine from NY...he grew up in the streets of states, but still mastered the Krar and sings Eritrean revolutionary songs all over. Fast forward to hear better quality at 4:20

Xamari, yes I'm Eritrean and proud of it...by default i was born into the daily affairs of the Eritrean struggle my folks would take us to political meetings during the revolutionary era in the 80's....bro we were babies with bottles in our mouth screaming AWET N HAFASH (Victory to the Masses) b4 even talking...lol. But the good things was we were also exposed to the larger political landscape in the Horn and Africa as a whole.
Growing in Ohio some of my best friends were Somalis and we'd exchanged daily on how the keep the Intergity of E. Africa in tact. I used to tutor Somali youths in high school while my Somali homeboys would come to Eritrean sponsored communities to do the same thing.
So it kills me inside to see some misguided Somali/Eritrean brahs talkin about irrelavent issues instead building for our childrens futures.

From what I have seen, Eris usually have outward patriotism in the sense they rock their flags and stuff and talk about politics really because the whole nation was fighting for 40 years so it is a war-born nation but culturally and identity-wise Eris and to a larger extent do not have real cultural pride. If I am generalizing, my bad :lol:

Interesting point Voltage. I'm sure like any other immigrant communities you'll have those types you speak of above, but i can generally say that for a community that has existed since the early 70's some 2nd and 3rd generation most parents do a real good job in maintaining the culture. Holla at me when if the Somali communities who've grown expontenially in 10 years maintain the same vigor! Somalia is being torn into pieces even as we speak! So think about it and ask yourself who will maintain one's culture. By no means is this a knock, but something for Somalis to think about the future and not about petty disputes. No disrespect to my -landers but i'd like to see the old Somali proper back in effect.


BTW....whats wrong with one reppin his flag....by your logic Somalia should be the most patriotic country in Africa (twenty years of war and recently with Ethiopia). Personally, i aint got no beef if one reps their flag as long as they know what is means.
