About Tamang Society of America (TSA) New York, USA
Tamang Society of America(TSA) is Non-profit organization established on March 2002, in New York State USA.
Tamangs, indigenous people who live across the
Himalayan region are one of the many ethnic groups now mostly
inhabitants of Nepal. The legendary self-esteemed descendants of
ancestors, Tamang people unfold a profound and distinct cultural
history of their own. Our civilization is deeply tangible with cultural
heritage such as language, script, folklore, music and unique mixture
of traditional Tamang Buddhism, Bomboism and Tambaism. Following the
footprints of our ancestors we take pride at present with Tamang songs
and tunes of Damfu and Tungna developed from Tamba tradition as an
inseperable part of our culture and identity.
In consideration of historical facts that Tamang people have been
systematically discriminated for generations by the aristocratic elites
of homeland resulting a great deal of economic deprivation and social
disintegration. Consequently, Tamang people have been victims of
exploitation for years in Nepalese Society.
However, despite of such ongoing inhumanly suppression and social
discrimination by so-called RULERS of the society, Tamang people have
always been eager to learn and preserve their distinctive culture and
heritage in practices.
