Welcome to The Villagers, a cultural promotion programme. Having realized the differences that have sat among us for as far back as people existed, we have made it an organizational pledge to institutionalize the celebration of differences that are among us. Daily, and increasingly, people are getting more and more swallowed up by existing dominant cultures and this is an impending peril on the smaller cultures. If nothing is done today, now, then we may speak of many little known cultures as existences of the past and that will be an unpleasant thing. In the developed world, there is little or no significant representation of smaller cultures and the ever-increasing pop culture seems to be heading off with the rest of the world, amazingly, to nowhere. It brings no fulfillment that a human being seeks in life, neither does it create or promote unity. Many people by the day are getting more and more swayed by just existing in this culture.
What if people got back to the basics. Not entirely to camping out in caves or tents and hunting and gathering but going out and camping in caves in our values and morals to find that which brought up our present day civilisation. In most nations today, there is no more populations entirely constituted of one race of people or one tribe or one social group but people have travelled wide and far settling wherever they found habitable. With the advent of the internet and other modes of fast communication, business is now done on a global scale so has communication, it has been reduced to one standardized way majorly in the English language. Nothing wrong with that, however, many other languages and subsequently their cultures have been sidelined, being not the major communication tools, their cultures have been regarded as inferior even by those that belong to the culture.
It is a shame that children, many of whom are born in countries other than their own do not have clues whatsoever to the ways that brought their people up. I am not suggesting that they entirely be ignorant to the particular culture they would have been born in, but I am pointing at an element that makes one feel complete, to know who one is and what it means to be you, what defines you and the ways that you have to meet and greet and kill time makes complete one’s life. I believe God created us different to brin but the beauty of the human race to the fore. Our differences are not meant to be abhorred and looked down upon, that is just but wrong and evil a way of looking at life.
The Villagers initiative brings together people of different tribes and races to showcase their talents in different ways that bring out their differences distinctly. This is done through collection of cultural projects in visual and oral arts, cultural exchange visits; this shall bring to the Villagers platform things like folklores of different cultures, morals and values.
The Villagers also shall push this agenda via theater and filmography as well as all other means of communicating with everybody around the globe.
