Last week on Columbus Day, Sahara Reporters, the Nigeria-focused New York City-based website, sent a crew down to Zucoti Park where anti-Wall Street protesters are camping out.

There they filmed Olga El, who runs “a dance theater for social change.” Topless (it’s legal in New York City), she went on about representing for Africa and native people against imperialism. Her ancestors “are from all over Africa and native American.” As for her outfit, it was “a fusion of things going on in my outfit.”

Earlier today, Ikenna of What’s Up Africa, pointed to some of the craziness in the video by Sahara Reporters:

Stop when Ikenna goes for Judge Hatchet. (BTW, we did here. )

Back to Olga.
