hello steemit friends
Ota Benga was born into a tribe of Mbuti pygmies who populated the Ituri Forest in small family groups of 15-20 people. The small family groups survived by migrating to places with hunting opportunities and mostly kept to themselves. Born in 1883, Ota Benga was a Congolese man who lived in equatorial forests near the Kasai River. He was to one day lead a group of his own, but things took a turn when the Belgians came to their forest and invaded their lands.
