LEFT HAND SHAKE
WHEN Colonel BADEN-POWELL entered the capital city of the Ashanti
people in 1896 he was met by one of the Chiefs who came to him holding
out his left hand. B.-P. held out his right in return but the Chief
said: “No, in my country the bravest of the brave shake with the left
hand.” So began the “left handshake” of the world-wide brotherhood of
Scouts.
Once Lady B.P. explained that her husband adopted left hand shake on the basis of the following :
Two tribes were fighting each other. One day when the two tribes came opposite to each other, the leader of one
Tribe threw away the shield in his left hand and approached the other leader extending his left arm for
Shaking hand. Thus he showed his friendship with a free extended left hand by not defending himself.
Hence, extending the left arm means I am not your enemy; I am your friend.’
