Ethiopia's Mursi tribe says they were imprisoned and tortured to protect Chinese sugar plantations.
OMO VALLEY, Ethiopia — One night, in his village of 20 grass huts in Ethiopia’s Omo Valley, Golonkiwo had a nightmare. As a komoru, or mystic of the Mursi tribe, Golonkiwo’s duty is to receive and interpret dream prophecies. It is a vital role, passed down from father to son in one of the world’s oldest surviving cultures.
“In my dream, I saw the government soldiers coming for us,” Golonkiwo stated. “They killed a lot of people.”
