How long till the macawiis becomes appropriated by non somalis. Feel like the longer we're in diaspora the more likely I'll see some company take advantage of our shit. But I'm glad we're rocking our culture, can't let it die.

Macawiis is not originally somali.

Macawiis is not originally somali.

Nothing's originally anything, most things are diffused from other cultures, or appropriated and stolen.

Macawiis is not originally somali.

It's now a part of Somali attire. The fez isn't originally Turkish but you associate it with them.
