this photos purportedly from defenseimagery.mil is not and is taken from http://www.cheap-kenya-vacation-tips.com/bantu-people-of-kenya.html I have removed this copyright violation. Blatant disregard. The link goes to a photo of an army person giving water to a man -- quite obviously not these two ladies. Please stop stealing pictures from online, thanks.

The burden of proof is on the user and this photo has been reported. The uploader is a known copyright violator and a number of requests for removal have been lodged against him. I suggest you look up the uploader on wikimedia commons. You are in very gray legal territory my friend, and I recommend you chat with a more knowledgable administrator :) I will not repeat myself again, this is a copyrighted work and you must cease and desist from using it on this page. Thank you. ] (]) 05:31, 18 July 2012 (UTC)

Undiscussed changes

Per WP:BRD, I have reverted massive changes made to the article by a new single purpose account . Among other things, the material conflates the Bravanese people (who only speak Bantu languages, but many aren't ethnically Bantu) with actual Bantus. It ignores the fact that the term "Somali Bantu" is not the common term for the Bantus in Somalia and that it is a neologism which only came into usage in recent years. It repeats a lot of the information already indicated in the article, such as the ostracism of Bantus and land seizures. It also puts undue weight on the discrimination already quite extensively discussed. Middayexpress (talk) 20:23, 13 October 2011 (UTC)
