B) changing perceptions of women

The Flapper style was seen to be wildly inappropriate. Women cutting their hair and wearing short skirts fought against the role and expectations traditional society had for women. Women were empowered by the passage of the 19th Amendment (women's suffrage) and new found freedom established during World War I. Their image represented a blending of gender expression as women took on more masculine hair cuts and behaviors. The movement represented a freedom and acceptance toward independence from their families and the wife role expected of them.

ngai (engai, enkai, mweai, mwiai) is the monolithic supreme god in the spirituality of the kamba and kikuyu of kenya.ngai is creator of the universe and all in it. the kikuyu worshiped ngai facing the mt. kirinyaga (mount kenya) while prayers and goat sacrificial rituals were performed under the sacred mugumo tree (a fig tree species). ngai often was referred to as "mwene nyaga" meaning (the owner of the mountain).

it means that maasai people think that mount kenya is something to be worshipped along with god.when cattle or children cause problems,maasai elders just warn them that children must mend their bad ways or their god might punish them.this serves as law and order tool to maintain peace among maasai tribe.the maasai are an indigenous ethnic group in africa of semi-nomadic people settled in kenya and northern tanzania. due to their distinct traditions, customs and dress and their residence near the many national game parks of east africa, the maasai are among the foremost african ethnic groups and are known internationally because of their links to the national parks and reserves.
