In the Mashonaland part of Zimbabwe, there is a practice that people follow when they bury their loved one, depending on what they use to do for a living in their time. A doctor will get a coffin that has decorations related to their field of work, such as a stethoscope.
Mourners at a sex worker’s funeral in Harare inflated condoms and took her coffin to a bottle store in celebration of her life. A video of the funeral shows mourners blasting music and dancing to it at the bottle store as they parade her coffin.
Some of the women start twerking.
