Sometimes, I feel like the Black Female Zelig. Or Maybe Forrest Gump. I've got enough photographic evidence that I've been in the middle or near some pretty interesting events.I'm looking at a 1994 picture of me standing beside Nelson Mandela even as I type these words. I plopped down in Northern Uganda a year after a 21 year Civil War ended, and in Kenya 5 months after the Post Election Violence. In January of 2010, I got caught in the middle of a rock-throwing riot between Christians and Muslims in downtown Nairobi. And here's a picture of me in Juba, near a Separation Poster.
Can't wait to see what'll happen next...or can I?????
