Chemi Katika Sinema, HIstoria ya Khanga 1994

Mwaka 1994, TAMWA, walitengeneza sinema kuhusu Historia ya Khanga. Mimi nilikuwa mmoja wa waigizaji pamoja na Issa Michuzi.  Mnaweza kuona Clip yote YOU TUBE:

Wadau,  vyombo vya habari hapa Marekani jinsi waTanzania walivyompokea Rais Obama kwa upendo na ukarimu.  Na pia walishanaa Rais Bush Jr. alivyopokelewa. Kweli waTanzania tujivunie! Wanazidi kushangaa vitenge na khanga zenye picha ya Rais Obama pia!

Makochi ya Vitenge

Mwaka 1990 kuna dada fulani (Marehemu) huko Manzese aliyetengeneza maforonya na mashuka ya vitenge. Watu walimcheka.

Leo wazungu wanatengeneza makochi ambayo yamefunikwa (upholstery) na vitenge. Tena wanaziuza bei mbaya. Hebu cheki hizo kochi pichani, moja dola $1,700! Hizo ottoman za kuwekea miguu dola $200! Acheni kudharua vitenge na khanga zetu. Tengenezeni maseti ya mashuka na maforonya mpate kibunda....ohhooooo! Exported from Tanzania!

First Ladies

Sasa jamani, hiyo khanga ilivyokunjwa. Picha ya Bush imefichwa lakini maneno WE CHERISH DEMOCRACY ni prominent. Hivi aliamua kuikunja hivyo kusudi picha ya Bushi isionenekane? Hapa Marekani watu walikuwa wanacheka kweli hizo khanga wanasema picha ya Bush iko kwenye butts (matako) na bosoms (vifua) vya wanawake wa kiafrika. Hawaelewi utamduni wetu wa khanga.

Wapendwa wadau, nawauliza hivi, "WHO IS KISSING WHO'S ARSE HERE?"

Duh, Rais Bush atablow kuona picha yake kwenye matako makubwa ya wanawake wa kiafrika! Wazungu wanavyochukia matako makubwa halafu sasa picha ya rais Bush hiyo! Nadhani TMZ na stesheni zingine, akina Leno na Letterman watafanya utani kweli hapo! Utasikia utani kuhusu, 'sit on it'.

Khanga siyo mbaya ila mmh kuna watu hawapendi kuona uso ya huyo Bush kutokana na vitu alivyofanya kama kuanzisha vita isiyo na maana huko Iraq! Lakini watasema iko where it deserves to be, on an arse!
