One of the best trainings we have had so far was the last week, when we spoke about Race relations in Namibia. All of our Namibian trainers got into a circle and were told a certain ethnic group, then had to say the first thing that came to mind. Here are some of their responses for my people, The San:
Marginalized, Drunkards, Hunters, 1st Namibians, No land, Primitive, Vulnerable, and no vision.
Some of the things they said about some of the other ethnic groups: Drunkards, thieves, drunkards, like to fight, proud, drunkards…see a certain common denominator?
Then the most interesting, to me, was what they said about Americans:
Think they’re VIP’s, Rich, Want to rule the world, Love war, Exploiters, Hard working, Rich, pimped out cars, Dominating.
It was a really good session, take from it what you will. What do you all think?
