Just wanted to know a bit about the Garre people. I've read they are Dir, yet they have their own language and group with the Borona at times.
Are they ethnic Somalis?
Also, groups like the Bursuuq, do they class themselves as Oroma or Somali.
Is anyone here, Garre, Bursuuq, Akisho or Jarso? If so, would you say you have a staunchly Somali identity?
Is anyone here from a clan that can be classed as Oroma?
I find these tribes to be interesting, as they show us that the Somali identity isn't as clear cut or black and white as one may think.
