Kwanyakaza injabulo nenjabulo ngesikhathi umkhwenyana, uMnuz Herb, nomakoti, uNksz Sharon, bobabili baseCalifornia, befika esikhumulweni sezindiza iKilimanjaro International Airport (KIA), eTanzania, ngezithuba zabo-9:00 ekuseni ngoJulayi 4, 2022.

“Akukholakali! Asikaze silugubhe uSuku Lokuzimela lwase-US eMelika njengoba silapha. Ngempela, ayikho indawo efana nekhaya. Ngiyabonga kakhulu, bafowethu nodadewethu,” kusho uMnu. Herb ngesikhathi kubingelelwa kafushane esikhumulweni sezindiza.

Iminyaka eminingi, uMnumzane Herb noNkz. Sharon behlala benethemba elincane lokuthi ngelinye ilanga bazovakashela e-Afrika ukuze bathole izimpande zokhokho babo futhi bashade ngokwesintu.

“Uma kunencwadi yefa, ikhona indlela, lapha sizophinde sihlangane nabafowethu nodadewethu ngemva kokuhlukaniswa phakathi nokuhweba ngezigqila okubi kakhulu eminyakeni engu-400 edlule,” kusho uHerb odangele.

Njengoba bazalwe futhi bakhuliswa phakathi kwehlathi lezakhiwo eziphakeme zedolobha lase-California lase-California, uMnu. Herb kanye noNkz. Sharon baphupha ngokubuyela ezindaweni zabo zemvelo zokhokho ukuze baphinde bavakashele impilo ngaphambi kokuba inyoka ilinge u-Eva.

Umbhangqwana wakhetha iKigongoni, idolobhana elincane lamaMasai elisemithambekeni yeRift Valley e-Afrika; eduze nendawo, ukuziphendukela kwemvelo komuntu kwenzeka njengeNsimu yase-Edene efanelekayo yokusingatha umshado wabo wesintu.

Kwenzeka lokhu nje, umbhangqwana wase-Afro-American wenze izifungo zabo zomshado phambi kwabadala bama-Maasai emshadweni wendabuko onemibala egqamile owawubanjwe ngesiko elijwayelekile. boma, ibanga nje lokujikijelwa kwetshe ukusuka e-Oldupai Gorge ngaphakathi kwe-Ngorongoro Conservation Area.

Futhi kuMnumzane Herb noNkz. Sharon, le ndawo abashadela kuyo iyinkundla ekahle yokuphila ngaphambi kukaKayini no-Abela waseBhayibhelini, impilo yangaphambi kweziqhwaga zamaNefili, kanye nozamcolo kaNowa.

Umshado wabo ongokomlando ezweni lokhokho wabo wabuyisela umhlaba, owawuvame ukuba khona ngemva nje kokuqala komhlaba kweBhayibheli.

“Siyakwamukela ekhaya, ndodana nendodakazi yomhlabathi. Sinipha izibusiso zokhokho benu. Sithandazela ukuthi uNkulunkulu aniqondise ohambeni lwenu olusha,” kusho umholi wendabuko wamaMaasai, uMnu Lembris Ole Meshuko, ngesikhathi somcimbi.

Umphakathi wamaMaasai unikeze umbhangqwana osanda kushada amagama amasha elithi Lamnyak elithi Herb nelithi Namanyan elithi Sharon njengegama lokhokho babo.

“Lo mshado uyisipho kubantu bakithi base-Afrika, izihlobo zethu. Kuthathe iminyaka elinganiselwa ku-400 ukubuya sizohlangana nani bafowethu nodadewethu,” kusho uHerb obedabukile ezwakalisa ukubonga kubadala abangamaMasai abaneminyaka engu-80 abawela amathafa aseSerengeti bezothamela umshado wabo. .

IPharadesi Lezilwane Zasendle 

Nakuba abantu baseTanzania, izindawo ezimangalisayo, nezinye izizinda zemvelo zanele ukuba zidonse ukunaka komuntu, kuze kube yilapho umuntu efika eSerengeti National Park ewudedangendlale lapho kuqala khona lapho efika ensimini yase-Edene yangempela yeBhayibheli, ngenxa yalokho. izilwane zayo eziningi zasendle ezizulazula ngokungenasici ku-savannah engapheli.

Emlenzeni wawo wokuqala eSerengeti, umbhangqwana wase-Afro-American wabhekana ubuso nobuso nendawo yemvelo yezilwane ezingamakhulu ezinkulungwane ezinjengezingwe, obhejane, izinkonkoni, amadube, amabhubesi, izinyathi, izindlulamithi, ama-warthog, izinkawu, izimfene, izinyamazane, impisi, inzinse, i-topi, okhrayini nezibankwa zonke zikhululekile ukuzulazula.

Ngokushesha nje lapho umbhangqwana osanda kushada waqala ukuhlanekezela, uhlabelela futhi uhlabelela, njengoba ubuhle bemvelo beSerengeti babenza bazizwe sengathi basezulwini lezilwane zasendle.

“Lena indawo yemvelo emangalisayo esele emhlabeni; abafowethu nodadewethu e-US nasemhlabeni wonke kufanele bazi futhi beze ukuzoyivakashela. Khohlwa ngezilwane ezingaphili esizibona eziqiwini,” kusho uMnu. Herb.

Okuhlangenwe nakho kwabo kanye nokubukeka kwabo akuphelelanga lapho. Umbhangqwana wase-Afro-American nawo wawuke wathandana nenkambu yasehlathini enezinkanyezi ezinhlanu abachitha ubusuku obubili ehlathini, izungezwe amakhulu ezilwane zasendle ezingenabungozi ebusuku.

Ngaphandle kokuhlangenwe nakho kwezilwane zasendle, lo mbhangqwana uphinde washukunyiswa umoya wokungenisa izihambi wabantu baseTanzania, izinsiza, izinsiza, izinsiza ezifana nezindlu zokugezela ezikhethekile ezinamashawa ashisayo, u-ayisikhilimu, nogesi osebenza ngelanga ohambisana nemvelo maphakathi nehlane, ikakhulukazi amahhotela namakamu asehlathini. bahlala phakathi.

“Umoya wokungenisa izihambi wabantu baseTanzania uyamangalisa! Sanikezwa izinkonzo zasebukhosini zisuka nje; besikhonzwa ngoweta nabahle, ngaso sonke isikhathi begqoke ukumamatheka komuntu ngempela ebusweni babo,” kufakaza uMnu.

“Kuyintokozo enkulu ukuba se-Afrika. Ngangivame ukuzwa izindaba ezimbi nge-Afrika emuva eMelika. Satshelwa ukuthi i-Afrika impofu, igcwele izinxibi ezinolaka, izingane zibulawa indlala, nakho konke ukulandisa okuhlobene nokubi. Kodwa ngithe ngifika lapha ngashaqeka ngibona ubuhle be-Afrika okwakungakaze kukhulunywe ngabo,” kusho uNksz Sharon.

Ufunge wagomela ukuthi uzobuyela eMelika futhi akhulume iqiniso nge-Afrika njengengxenye yegalelo lakhe ekuguquleni ukulandisa okungekuhle ngomhlaba wokhokho bakhe.

“Ngikujabulele. Abantu balungile, banenhlonipho, bayathandeka futhi baphana ngokwedlulele. Ngibe nesenzakalo engingasoze ngasikhohlwa okungekho muntu ongangiphuca sona. Ngibuyisela iqiniso elifihliwe nge-Afrika e-US,” kusho uNksz Sharon.

Izimpande Zokhokho

Ngempela, iTanzania iyikhaya lesizinda sesintu, i-Oldupai Gorge, lapho kwatholakala khona umkhondo womuntu wokuqala, isikhungo esikhulu sokuhweba ngezigqila i-Ujiji eLake Tanganyika engxenyeni esentshonalanga, kanye nezindawo zomlando zaseKilwa endaweni yoGwini eyingxenye yenkaba. indlela yokuhweba ngezigqila eya emakethe yezigqila eZanzibar Isles.

“Inzuzo yawo wonke lo msebenzi wabaseshi iyinto encane kunesikhathi sokuhamba ngomlando womndeni wakho. Uzojwayelana namadlozi akho ngokusondelene nangokwengqondo.

Isazi sozalo u-Megan Smolenyak, umkhohlisi owavumbulula uzalo luka-Barack Obama wase-Ireland, uchaza ukuvakashela ikhaya lokhokho njengomunye wezinto ezimbalwa “ezithinta umhlaba wonke” ezimbalwa zokuphila.

"Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi uphumelele kangakanani noma uboneni, awukwazi ukuthukuthela uma uhamba ezinyathelweni zamadlozi," kusho uSmolenyak. “Kunento enamandla ngokubona isibongo sakho ematsheni asemathuneni edolobheni elikude noma uhlezi esontweni okwakushadelwe kulo okhokho bakho. Ukufika lapho kudinga isineke esikhulu nomsebenzi wabaseshi, kodwa ngingakuqinisekisa, kuwufanele lokho.”

Umsunguli we-Off the Beaten Path, uMnumzana Salim Mrindoko uhambe emazwini kaMnu. Herb, ethi ngempela iTanzania ihlonishwa ngokugcina iminonjana yokuhweba ngezigqila, futhi abantu base-Afrika abayinzalo yaseMelika bangakwazi ukwenza uhambo lokuyohlangana nemimoya yokhokho babo.

Uthe iTanzania inakho konke edingekayo ukuze inikeze abantu base-Afro-America ithuba lokuhlola umlando wokhokho babo besebenzisa izindawo, izinto, nokunambitha.

Umhwebi wama-Arab wake wasebenzisa isiqhingi ukuze aqukathe futhi avimbele ezinye izigqila ezihluphayo ezivela ezweni lase-Afrika ukuthi zingaphunyuki ngaphambi kokuzithumela kubathengi base-Arabia noma ukuze zidaliselwe emakethe yaseZanzibar.

“ITanzania inobufakazi obuningi bokuhweba ngezigqila. Ngikhuthaza ama-Afro-Americans, afuna ukuthungatha izimpande zawo futhi axhumane nezihlobo zawo, beze,” kwengeza uMnu Mrindoko.

I-Cradle of Mankind Site

INgorongoro ihlanganisa izindawo zokuqala lapho kukholakala ukuthi umuntu wokuqala wavela futhi waphila ezigidini zeminyaka edlule. Yilapho wonke umphakathi womhlaba ubungathanda ukulandelela izimpande zawokhokho.

Phela, umhlaba uye wabona izinto zesimanje zobuchwepheshe, uhambo oluya enyangeni, ukuhlola indawo engaphandle kanye nokutshuza ekujuleni kolwandle. Okuningi okusazofakaza, nokho, impilo yasendulo eyandulela zonke lezi.

Abantu sebeguqukile futhi banda, kanti inani labantu babo kulindeleke ukuthi lifinyelele kumaki ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane eziyi-8 ngoNovemba uma imininingwane yakamuva ye-UN iyinto engadlula. Ngemva kwamakhulu eminyaka ezinto ezintsha, iningi lingafisa 'ukubuyela emuva ngesikhathi futhi lilandele izinyathelo' zokhokho balo 'zangempela'.

Kungakapheli Ngorongoro, izilungiselelo zeminyaka yama-dinosaur zisatholakala kumafomu azo emvelo angempela, angashintshiwe futhi angonakalisiwe, afakwe kumephu ezindaweni ezimbili eziseduze, i-Olduvai ne-Laetoli.

Iqanjwe ngegama lesisale sasendle esimise okwenkemba esichumayo endaweni, i-Olduvai (Olduvai) kanye nesizinda sayo esiseduze se-Laetoli hominid kusewukuphela kwendawo lapho izitembu zemvelo zasendulo zomhlaba zisekhona.

At Olduvai, I-Tanzania iqophe umlando womhlaba wonke ngokusungula imnyuziyamu enkulu kunazo zonke emhlabeni yomlando wabantu ezizindeni zokuvubukula zemivubukulo.
