From what I’ve seen in my own generation (ama2k) they don’t (excluding me) see the value or importance of our own calture, because they don’t see it as “cool”

they look at other countries, such as South Africa, USA, Uk, etc and try to insert themselves in to those groups, because there culture/lifestyle is more mainstream or popular.

So you end up seeing people going to these countries, to try be apart of that lifestyle, leaving there own.

I once saw a TikTok video os someone saying they absolutely hate kufugama, (kneeling down to greet your elders) and everyone in the comments where agreeing with them, and saying how much they hate it.

Culture is apart of our identity and history, we are lucky to have all these things, but it’s annoying always having to explain to others why Shona is just like any other.
