Ramblings from afar (and sometimes anear)

Looking for something specific?

 

Swanking is an Art Form

Recently, there have been commercials regarding swanking and its role in South Africa.  There has been a documentary about it.  However, the audio is in Zulu and the subtitles in Danish. (neither do I have a talent in)

Swanking reminds me of Sundays in front of the Baptist church.  The colors, the styles, the pride in what is worn.  According to the commercial, there is a code of ethics for swankers (or swenkas).  Respect for oneself and how you are viewed by the public.  There is something to be said for that.
