I think that globalization happened in the article because the London Missionary Society brought the holiday tradition into southern Tswana and it spread into the Kalahari Desert. If globalization doesnt bring the Christmas tradition from the London Missionary Society maybe Lee might not go to Kalahari and explore their tribes and cultures. Even though Lee had been staying in Kalahari for almost three years the Kalahari people still consider him an outsider. Lee also has not shared his food with the Bushmen although he has plenty of food. In return, he wanted to celebrate Christmas together with the Bushmen and have the initiative to buy an ox to make the people happy. But what he gets from his goodwill is a complaint about the ox that is too skinny and nearly died. I noticed that the peoples ego in the village is still high. They want to be the best and be known by others. However, they dont think about other people’s feelings. For example, after Lee bought an ox, many people came to him and said bad things to him. Lee feels as if he is being insulted even though he wants to make the Bushmen people happy. According to him, usually, if a person offers something, he or she will accept it with a grateful heart and rarely criticize. This celebration and the behavior of the people are very different in Indonesia. Indonesians are very welcome and they are happy whenever people want to celebrate Christmas or different events that involve a lot of people.
This article is worth my reading time because I can know what happens in Kalahari every Christmas how people in Kalahari respond to what other people have and also how they interact with one another. What I learned from the article is that we dont need to take what other people talk about us too seriously because instead of making us happy, it can make us down. Maybe that is their way of communicating with us.
I also noticed when Lee asked Tomazo why he didnt tell Lee about how Bushmen communicate. As an Anthropologist, Lee needs to be more aware and thoughtful of his surroundings. With Lee staying in Kalahari for almost 3 years, he needed to know how the people communicate but Lee still didnt know about it and instead almost got mad at his friend for not telling him about how the Bushmen communicate.
