Swaziland Reed Dance -
Umhlanga, or Reed Dance ceremony, is an annual Swazi and Zulu tradition held in August or September of each year. Tens of thousands of unmarried and childless Swazi/Zulu girls and women travel from their villages to participate in the eight-day event. In Swaziland they gather at the Queen Mother's royal village, which currently is Ludzidzini Royal Village, while Nongoma is the site of the royal reed dance in Zululand. After arriving at the Queen Mother's royal residence, or Enyokeni Palace in Zululand, the women disperse the following night to surrounding areas and cut tall reeds. The following night they bundle them together and bring them back to the Queen Mother to be used in repairing holes in the reed windscreen surrounding the royal village. After a day of rest and washing the women prepare their traditional costumes consisting of a bead necklace, rattling anklets made from cocoons, a sash, and skirt. Many of them carry the bush knife they used to cut the reeds as a symbol of their virginity. Today's Reed Dance ceremony developed in the 1940's and 50's from the Umcwasho custom where young girls were placed in age regiments to ensure their virginity. Once they reached the age of marriage they would perform labor for the Queen Mother followed by dancing and a feast. The official purpose of the annual ceremony is to preserve the women's chastity, provide tribute labor for the Queen Mother, and produce solidarity among the women through working together. The women sing ...

After the parade, groups from select villages take to the center of the field and put on a special performance for the crowd.

Swaziland
I go to school in the nation's capital, Mbabane, at the Waterford Kamhlaba United World College of Southern Africa. Being in such a different place - a country ruled entirely by a king - has been an amazing experience so far. This video, parts of which were aired on CNN International in May of 2009, shows, without any commentary, what I have been seeing.

The king of the tiny African nation of Swaziland is facing mounting discontent over his lavish life style. While King Msawati the third and his 13 wives live in luxury, it is a much different story for most of his subjects. Al Jazeera's Tania Page reports from Swaziland.

Reed Dance; Swaziland
Once a year, in the heart of South Africa's Kingdom of the Zulu, thousands of people make the long journey to one of His Majesty's, the King of the Zulu nation's royal residence at Kwa Nyokeni Palace. Here, in Nongoma, early every September month, young Zulu maidens will take part in a colourful cultural festival, the Royal Reed Dance festival - or Umkhosi wo Mhlanga in the Zulu language. For visitors to KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa's most popular tourist destination, the Reed Dance festival offers the unique opportunity to experience the natural beauty and majesty of the Kingdom of the Zulu, combined with the vibrant spectacle of Zulu cultural life. The road to the Reed Dance festival runs north from the city of Durban, and winds through the green lushness of the North Coast sugar-belt, skirting through the Kingdom's world-renowned wildlife reserves of Zululand and Maputaland. Finally, it leads into the gently rolling hills and valleys of Zululand, a landscape rich with the silent memories of the heroic clashes of the Anglo-Zulu War, which took place more than 100 years ago. Steeped in the history of the rise of the Zulu kingdom under the great King Shaka, the Reed Dance festival has been tirelessly celebrated by countless generations, and attracts thousands of visitors from throughout the country and from across the world. A dignified traditional ceremony, the Reed Dance festival is at same time a vibrant, festive occasion, which depicts the rich cultural heritage of the ...

Swaziland Teachers Strike Over Poor Pay
www.youtube.com Latest News Network Plz Subscrib for Latest News Thousands of teachers in Swaziland are striking over poor pay. They are calling for a 4.5 per cent wage increase. Many say widespread corruption in the government, including state-sponsored extravagance of the country's king, has caused a massive inequality gap between the rich and poor. 70 per cent of Swaziland's population live on less than two dollars a day, while the king as one of the richest royals in the world.
