African Motion

I am Africa and Africa is me. I live life through movement and dance. Rhythm and music is passed on from generation to generation and is something that feeds my soul. I was born in Ghana and I live in Queens,NY. I love everything about the African culture, especially the food and the art. You can ask me anything. Don't be shy :)

Where twerking originated

[autobiographyofasankster]

The fact that none of them are the typical stick thin. Love.

[iambaby-j]

Because in African culture . It is more looked down upon to be skinny , sometimes they’ll come to you and ask you if your sick or if something’s wrong . This is Africa’s definition of the perfect body

[brooklynwaste]

twerking is a fertility dance, something that is more culturally important than most people think

shaking your butt is what african cultures just do

from salsa, to hip hop to reggae, popping our booties is apart of our history and lifestyle

i could write a dissertation on how twerking has historical and cultural significance and why miley cyrus and other cornballs should not make fun of it or make light of it

[somethingnotobscenefunnystuff]

This is so cool :) does that mean twerking is cultural appropriation?

[breakfastwithb]

Yes. Twerking is cultural appropriation.
