ETHIOPIAN WOMEN

Ethiopian traditional dress

"Takes the breath away Ethiopian women do. I've asked myself many times, "How?", and came to an answer. The energies of a People never conquered by the Europeans is vital, and mingled with a fire, and creation stories unable to relate to conquered, and defeated mentalities. It is a probe, their presence into who one is as an African, and what it means to be free, and embolden with the powers to tell the truth to self. I know there is more, but to capture it with words is pointless in many audiences because for Americans and African-Americans the subject of freedom is so full of contradictions and rife with illogical mingling of subjugation that discerning what makes up the mystique of Ethiopians is as difficult as trying to change a tire with one hand!" - Gregory E. Woods 3.18.13
