Osingolio means singing and dancing in the Maa language of the Maasai. They cannot be separated in Maasailand. This episode is an excerpt from a video I made for the village of Ngong'u Narok in Amboseli, Kenya in 2008. You might hear Kaika talk about singing the dances. That's what they do there. That's how they flourish in drought and oppression. But this latest drought is really hitting them hard. I made this bonus episode to bring attention to a fundraiser I am doing. More details to follow.
