Title: Kaffir - Africans of Sri Lanka
Post by: Nakandi on April 12, 2014, 02:16:26 AM
"Historians say that the Kaffirs of Sri Lanka started arriving from the eastern shores of Africa in the 1500s with the Portuguese, and later in more waves with the different colonisers of Sri Lanka.
'Kaffir culture' is a video portrait of one such community of Kaffirs and the struggle to keep their culture alive in the face of falling numbers."
