Minority report

This woman was from the Koho tribe who lives near Elephant Falls. She was making and selling handmade silk garments and blankets in a hut near the falls. The Koho tribe is a minority tribe that, according to Huan, is “very different” because the woman is the head of household. When a man and woman within the tribe marry, the woman must give the man’s family five water buffalo. She is then responsible for working hard to make a living for her family while the man stays home with the children. Minority is right!
