hello everyone,my name is princess. I made this poster because i want everyone to know about African culture . the white man and lady in this picture means something, back then in the 60's Africans(Nigerians) wear more of traditional attire, until when the British came to colonize us. majority of Nigerian now dresses in such ways this is mainly talking about fashion style. And also I have a post of a carnival we do in Nigeria, we have 36 states in Nigeria, each state does a carnival or festival culture and this culture are different. Where i come from they do a carnival called yam festival. during this we have lot of gods staffs , masquerader and ritual it is scary and lot of incantations. that a culture that has been alive since our forefather where alive. These are our tradional and pop culture thanks

  1. I had no idea of African culture before, so I drew in your poster. I think your country is a great-hearted place in your poster.Do you prefer to live in America or Africa?

  3. Oh, I didn't know that Nigeria has 36states. That's a lot. Then may be you have a lot of festival in there. Next time why don't you introduce about your state in Nigeria? I really want to know more about it. And... Does your fashion is Nigeria style?

  4. I am interested in African culture. 2010 FIFA World Cup was held in South Africa,it is a visual feast. For me, I have never been there before, thus, Africa is a miracle land in my mind.
