Pygmies in the Congo: When The World Looks Down On You

Not only are Pygmy tribesmen of Congo short, usually 4 feet 11 inches on average, they are considered by the dominate Bantu tribesmen to be dirty, poorly dressed and stupid. Bantus won't even eat the food cooked by Pygmies. Ever since the Pygmies were forced out of the woods because of deforestation they had to close by the Bantus villages. The Bantus have been treated the Pygmies like surfs of the middle ages. The Pygmies owned no land and therefore had to work for the Bantus. The Bantu bosses sometimes paid the Pygmies with food and clothing or other times give them nothing at all. In spite of this strong prejudice against the Pygmies love between opposing tribe members occurred. The impacted of those inter tribal relationships have effected the size and the lifestyle of the modern Pygmy community.
