Any historical proof? While the indigenous jareeer people of Somalia are not ethnic Bantu, they populated inter river regions of Somalia since the biblical times. Let us take for example" the Shabelle community" who live through the banks of river Shabelle with in Somalia as well as the Ethiopian section of the river.NoAngst wrote:haxxor wrote:They are Somali that has been integrated into Somali culture.

Somalis (and their Cushitic speaking brothers) populated the Horn of Africa long before any Bantu. Regarding Bantu bashing-I'm it's a case of monkey see, monkey do. Somalis saw Whites and Arabs bashing Bantu African, so they bash them as well.
