Who they are
The Nusan Xoo belong to the indigenous Khoisan peoples of southern Africa and live mainly in the arid regions of the Kalahari. Known for their rich oral tradition and the Taa language, famous for its complex phonetics and click sounds, they face major cultural changes. Their traditional worldview is deeply connected to the cycles of the earth, ancestral spirits, and ancestral memory.
