We are a sad, sad bunch

For those of you who do not speak Spanish, the title of my blog roughly translates to "To Africa, boy, are you crazy?!" Whenever I forget why I am here and begin to think that learning two languages at once is absolute folly I read articles like this one and I remember why as a Dominican-American it is important for me to be here. One of my several reasons for coming to Senegal is to hopefully use this experience to better educate my negrophobic family and community. I doubt I could do anything to change the racist opinions of most Dominicans because as I said in this space already Dominicans are the most self-hating and delusional group of black people on the planet. Thanks Yajaira for sending me the article.
