Thanks for that great letter. I agree, that the way this story has been unfolding in the media portrays the people of Attawapiskat and First Nations in Canada as needy and helpless and is in my opinion extremely disempowering.

First Nations in Canada have a voice and we want to be heard.

Peace.

I don't understand why this hasn't come up yet in the media - is Attawapiskat really the only town where people are living in these conditions? I know next to nothing about First Nations issues, but my guess would be no.

Hey Caitlin. Yeah, I'm definitely interested in looking into the impact of gender differences. At the moment, as far as I've read, some Chinese cities have 120 men for every 100 women. The effect this has on everything is, I'm guessing, profound. Can't wait to go figure this sort of thing out.

Very interesting topic. From a development and gender perspective, I'm very interested on the impact on the gender ratio, with all of its socio-cultural (and economic?) ramifications. Is this something you'll be looking into at all?

Yeah, I found it hard to believe, too, but she insisted she was 103. I'm sure she gets a kick out of tricking people about her age.

Keep up the good work.

Great post Tim. Did you know the title of your entry is an idiom in French? "Perdre le nord" means to get confused or disoriented (I don't think it's an idiom in English, but I could be wrong). Also, I LOVE Solomon Gursky Was Here. I read it during a heat wave in the Dominican Republic...

It's stunning how stupid and cruel people can still be -- and Africa is not alone.

If the logic of policies like this is followed to its conclusion, they decree that people with disabilities should be dead.

Awesome :)

That sucks Tim. You seem to have a good attitude about it though, things will only get better.

Hey Brother,

Me and my wooden-plank 'bed' feel your pain. My only suggestion is find a private place, let it all out and then get ready to start again. Patience is not the only "P" word needed to survive a new culture. "Permission" is also important. As in, give yourself persmission to not have the best time in the world.

Peace and love from the heart of india.

If the structural foundations of Nairobi's office tours are in any way similar to the conditions of Kenya's road ways, I'd be cautious about returning to work too!

2007-07-19T09:07:00.000-04:00

Your observation about societal divisions in Kenya is interesting. I think it speaks to a history of divisiveness within Kenya in general.

Unlike Nyerere and his vision of creating a Tanzanian national identity under the policy of "ujamaa", Kenyatta never cared to reconcile Kenya's many tribal differences to build a sense of national unity to harmonize the nation. Instead, ethnic
