erifresh: These 9 women represent the 9 official tribes of Eritrea. They each have different languages they speak, music they play, clothes they wear, foods that are seen as special ( yes its true not everyone eats ingera ALL the time), customs they keep sacred like wedding, childbirth, funerals etc, and culture that has been passed down from generation to generation. They are NOT the same. In Eritrea we’re all different in all the above mentioned ways but are united as a nation. So if my small country of Eritrea can have that many differences (plus more because there are unrecognized tribes living in Eritrea) imagine how diverse the continent of Africa is! We live in the 21st century. Its time to stop with the Africa is a country, do you speak African blah blah bs. Africa is a diverse continent and the world needs to know that!
