Description
There are terms that force migragtory work like quatroon and octaroon, even Catillian and there are terms that are tribal and limit movement to fixed regions like, Zulu, Hottentot, Affars and Ikars and Bantu. These are deep in my childhood in the 40's. Walking on Florida Street in Washington, DC in 1983 among white robes and moving in a crowd on 14th Street at night flanked by women who tower far above me was a home rule.

Very expressive face, great portrait too.....!!!!!
Beautiful work!!
Good illustration and expression. Fortunately, Art and imagination can't be define so strictly...for the moment at least.
excellent render.
Beautiful render!!
Ah, the fixation with shoes explained. Hottentots (exterminated by the Dutch and Zulu and others) and Bushmen (still going strong) are not Bantu. Even Maasai (who are mentioned in Herodotus and did not arrive in "Kenya" until a few centuries ago) are not Bantu save by intermarriage. Most "White Racists" are even dumber than the name implies--they are not "Racists" at all but "Colorists". And "color" is not a primary racial characteristic. That too can be excavated from Herodotus, who remains several millennia ahead of most Americans, whether trailer trash or elite. The texture is not bad from a distance. Up close no comment. Kenyatta's Facing Mount Kenya is worth at least one close read. It was his Ph.D. dissertation in Britain if I recall correctly.
Superlative color hues, tints and blends in this wonderful rendering, T! Her teeth look boss.
