Waaqism

Somalia before it was culturally raped by Arabs. Here we see proud and confident people in their natural environment in Somalia with their distinct dress. Somalis being nomads, women in Somalia had much sway and lead the entire family from one region to another. A striking difference between ancient and current Somalia is the role reversal of women. Prior to the civil war women were pilots, doctors, and everything else, this was before the Wahabis had unfettered access to erase Somali culture and replace it with an Arabic one. In Islam all non Arab cultures are considered inferior to Arab culture, it's to be erased as it's considered a sin. And Somali people like many other Islamized people don't know much about their history, their culture, their cherished ancestral past.

























After complete transformation we see physical subjugation. The mental and psychologically detrimental affects of constantly emulating a completely foreign way of life is worse, it's an evidently terrible burden to carry. After the civil war and the spread of Wahabbism women were delegated to second class citizen and denied education and opportunity.
