The look of the children, the thinness of the cows, the scenery and one shoe to the feet of the child, they just bring back a state of poverty that makes me shudder, but above all to make me think a lot about life. a great shot, enriched by the conversion to B / W just beautiful.

now we have seen far too many pictures like that, even worse, unfortunately, but they continue to hit us anyway.
but I often wonder is sufficient only be affected?
hello ;-)

Thank you John and Moth.
Thank you for your comment and I am very pleased that the photo is food for thought.

But I must say that in this case the reality is not so terrible as it may seem at the moment and we all prevailed in the 'appearance "bucolic" assisting a scene from another time ... The children were malnourished and were not happy. :-)

The living conditions of the Suri / Surma are decidedly harsh by our standards but do not go hungry: their needs are basic (the children of that 'age but also the men, traditionally run naked ...) but they look good and will continue at least until they are attached to their traditions without the needs induced by a lifestyle that does not belong ... They have their animals, their traditions and also the money of turestablishing them go to visit and photograph ....
My fear is what will happen to them if or when they begin to lose their strong identity and 'pride of being Suri ..

Well maybe this depends on us, how we will respect their traditions without invading their identities. Just the fact that they are popular with tourists, often without any respect, I do not really like, I do not want you to think of them as a freak.

I agree with you, it is important to have the right approach but contact with tourists is not only negative .. It 's necessary to have a correct behavior that not everyone has, but the knowledge that their tradition and their image has a value, even quantified in monetary terms, for me it is not negative and can still be an incentive not to lose their identity.
Personally, in my experience I find it much more dangerous state interference that seek to unify the nation, starting from the prohibition of traditional ceremonies and fundamental not to mention the missionaries bringing their beliefs inviting and persuading to abandon traditional costumes ......
Change is inevitable but the major problem is that they end up being too sudden and inevitably destructive ..

Memy is true, change must come from within the people themselves according to what we call culture.
we (Westerners) we passed many milestones Social and Cultural Rights, for better or for worse, to arrive at this fact, they stopped much earlier.
the problem is because they stopped and will not continue in the right human evolution?

then you say you are doing well ... I'd say pull a bell .... what happens when one gets sick?

I understand Moth but their development has been slower than for a thousand reasons, but not for this reason do not have their culture .... The problem is that now they have to take a leap of hundreds of years into a single moment .. so great that it would be like if we came thrown to 'sudden in the' year 3000 or even more ..

They're definitely good considering the gold lifestyle that can not be judged by comparing it to ours: I've heard it said that if a Surma was in town we could never survive ..... I put myself on the opposite side and I say that surely if we lived like they do not camperemmo a week ....
As in most areas tirbali around the world and even more in urban areas than what we Westerners call "third world" unfortunately, there is also the rescation of dying from a treatable disease ... But otherwise I think this is a much bigger problem and unfortunately affects most of the population of the planet.

sorry for the intrusion into the discussion but this is a topic that interests me a lot and I dedicate most of my thoughts .. I find at least presumptuous, to put it mildly, the idea that their evolution has stopped before, are in fact deeply nailed that the concept of evolution and progress is taking a turn questionable: it is necessary to understand that the evolution of a nation is not measured by statistics, GDP per capita, and technological level, these people have a degree of social evolution and a wealth Anthropological that we should only envy, may die before us because they do not have the vaccine for typhoid (random example) but they are people who have a strong identity and a social openness light years ahead of us that we do not know our neighbors and that if we interact with a stranger about 7 out of 10 is to argue. Think about it. Quwent the Western man approaches with different cultures side almost always with the presumption that you have something to teach and never with the humility to have something to learn, think you can get around to install their own culture as if it were an operating system to be installed on a hard disk. In this regard I am reminded of the question unfortunately little known in Rwanda, a country that I had the chance and the pleasure of visiting last summer: in Rwanda this attitude of "we in the West" to act without knowledge has led to a war between different ethnic groups that before the arrival of Europeans living together without any problems, then it is war that led to a terrible genocide. I leave aside the religious aspect because it probably would have done without a previous discussion, but my only wanted to be a starting point for a more careful analysis of the question .. is it really the case of consider ourselves more & ugravand, evolved only because most technologically advanced? would be nice, and in my opinion would help to solve this problem of presumption approach, if a school does not only was studying European history, but also the history and literature of the continent rich in culture such as Africa and Asia .. - )

having said that, I really like the picture and find the perfect choice of black and white which gives the necessary drama to the scene Memy .. I'm starting to follow you and me who are still novice your photos are really inspiring model, my most sincere congratulations, see you soon! :-)

A huge quotone Lorenzowow! I remember the years when they wore T-shirts, sunglasses and use cell phones. Well a few years if the shirt does not have the coccodrillino and if the phone is not a smartphone, reject them :-( contamination of Western culture and the worship of the "god of money" has ruined Africa and not only the people but Also unfortunately the territory. countries so-called developed for stocks are making havoc of the continent.
Having said that compliments the picture, even the TOP SHOT Memy, high-impact and a BW that has much to teach, and all users of the forum, including me of course. Memy ;-) great as usual.

I agree with all the ideas set out above 8-), and I would add that we need to respect individuals and customs of these peoples: fconfuso:, nothing allows us to go to a distortion in their humble way of life: fconfuso:, which, moreover, to their own way, makes them happy.
Not too ...... and we deprive ourselves of this priceless treasure ....!!

Thank you all,
I like the comparison that has developed :-) and I agree with what was said ..
Respect is essential!

Salgado is really a comparison impossible, I think that 'man prensa in BN! is too good ...

yeah, but I mean when I speak of evolution a personal and unique, I do not mean Westernizing lead to a standardized or a people.
evolution means to integrate properly with themselves, with nearby civilizations and have the awareness of being human then be able to go over to the straw hut.
some people said, do not remember who, unfortunately, the difference between man and animal is that man sees beyond the horizon.
This has led us to do what we are now, and we (as the PC that allows us to communicate live here), so I say what mechanism in the course of human history has allowed many people to pursue a higher path?
I hope I explained myself better ;-)
I agree though that it is a discourse too large to deal with it here.

Lorenzo evolution for sure .... the man is destined to take the roads that inevitably will isolate those cultures to extinction too small and helpless.
history is full of them from Native Americans to the Aborigines, by the Indians to the Inuit. no one is immune.
Unfortunately, those who will pay back through the centuries have not gone further, it will be inevitable, and perhaps they will be the agony of vierere in the memories of old their history or genesis.
Unfortunately, history teaches us this.
hello ;-)

The problem is very serious and it would take days for sviscerarlo however, beyond everything, even if it is an inevitable process, I believe that one can not help but think how unfair .. and since we (as a civilization "Western") have the tools to be aware of it, it would not hurt for once try to avoid doing harm .. ;-)

Coming into direct contact with the tribal people with the respect they deserve and with the 'intention to deepen, as far as possible, the knowledge, it is almost inevitable especially be fascinated and we understand very well how the loss of any culture with its peculiarities is an impoverishment and a big loss for the whole 'humanity ...

Memy holy words, that sin, especially from the upper floors, some things do not affect the reference of Moth
Native Americans to the Aborigines, by the Indians to the Inuit
is indifferent before the eyes of almost everyone.

I admire and ponder. A little note: among other things, a well-known graffiti on the rock that brings to more primitive times ... Africa cradle of humanity.
Great shot documentary.
