In this talk-performance hybrid, drummer, percussionist and TED Fellow Kasiva Mutua shares how she's breaking the taboo against female drummers in Kenya — and her mission to teach the significance and importance of the drum to young boys, women and girls. "Women can be custodians of culture, too," Mutua says.

Drum is the most simplistic form of music instrument.
and yet a complex beast
Well TED to be perfectly honest, in my humble opinion, of course without offending anyone who thinks differently from my point of view, but also by looking into this matter in a different perspective and without being condemning of one’s view’s and by trying to make it objectified, and by considering each and every one’s valid opinion, I honestly believe that
I completely forgot
what I was going to say.kj

I wish there were more TED talks about Africa!
Did you know that Africa is in Africa and because of racism the maps of Africa make it look smaller than it is . It’s called cartographical racism. It oppresses black maps of African descent.
Beautiful drumming
Now let’s do the one with the white man how to use my brain to change the world
purv989 they didn’t say for the better
purv989 the world is better. Thanks to us
NordProductions You haven’t done anything to change the world.
nah. but i contribute to the society at least. Instead of living on welfare and a life of crime
Look around you, we have already been using it for thousands of years lol
Boring, there are so many drummers that can do so much better with “African style beats”
Joannot Fampionona Did she claim to be the best?
purv989
No she didn’t, the point is not that she isn’t the best, the point is that it’s boring to me.
It is booring

If it’s so wrong to tell women that their place is in the kitchen and if we’re told that sooo many countries see the woman as inferior to man it had to start from sonewhere. I mean, how come so many cultures see the women as being inferior ? It must have started from somewhere. It can’t be that wrong how they reached that specific belief if so many cultures had this belief in common. I’m not saying women SHOULD be inferior to men, i don’t believe that at all; i’m saying that there must be a reason why so many countries decided that this is a fact and embraced it.
Lemuroza I don’t think this guy knows what he actually wants to prove either.
Okay since you are either trolling or playing dumb here : What do you think
“It can’t be that wrong how they reached that specific belief if so many cultures had this belief in common” in combination with “i’m saying that there must be a reason why so many countries decided that this is a fact and embraced it.” implies?
It implies because it was popular belief there is hidden truth behind it. Which is a fallacy, since you like them so much. And if you believe that you can use your same reasoning to infer other things. Like the examples I gave in my first post.
Nearly all people had some kind of gods. By your reasoning because all did, “It can’t be that wrong”.
Nearly all people had the believe that only kings could hold order (no democracy).
By your reasoning because all did, “It can’t be that wrong”.
Nearly all people had the believe that the earth is the center of the galaxy. By your reasoning because all did, “It can’t be that wrong”.
My examples show you that, no, just because something is/was popular belief does NOT mean there is some hidden truth behind it.
The fact I had to spell it out for you makes it clear that you didn’t really think through your own comment…
MadnZz “A lot of people used to believe the earth was flat, so that means the earth really is flat.” That’s what you sound like.
Haazen Flat earthers would agree with you, actually xD BUT that’s not what i’m asking. Nobody seems to adress my querry.
use a condom instead.
