Valley of the Deaf. A Deaf Anthropologist in Adamorobe. 8220;Coming out”, or not? In Ghana, deafness is often seen as a punishment of a god or something that’s done to you by a witch. It’s mainstream to mock deaf people or to compare them to leaf-eating animals like goats: a leaf is put into the mouth and you pretend to chew on it.

Valley of the Deaf. A Deaf Anthropologist in Adamorobe. To the land, again and again. This is merely one of the various stories which explains the origin of the deafness in Adamorobe. It’s in accordance with what a hearing person here told me: it is assumed that the deaf are involved more seriously with what they do. Moreover, he mentioned that it’s believed that the ancestors trained the deaf as farmers. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Deze blog in het Nederlands. To the land, again and again.

Valley of the Deaf. A Deaf Anthropologist in Adamorobe. Back in the valley. However, some things have changed, of course. My room, for example, has gotten another color: fluorescent green (with, in the meantime, fresh brown smears from dusty kiddy hands). The biggest surprise when I entered, however, was an actual bed! This is quite agreeable seen I’m here for 5 months now, double the time of my last two stays in Ghana. “Five months is a long time! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Deze blog in het Nederlands.

Valley of the Deaf. A Deaf Anthropologist in Adamorobe. Lost: the research edition. On moments I want to wrap my mind around something else, like before going to bed, I put a DVD into my laptop. These days I’m watching the episodes of the series ‘Lost’ for the second time. Watching Lost while you know that a couple of meters from your bed are similar palm trees, hills, woods and waterfalls is quite something. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Deze blog in het Nederlands.

The Surinam Tales: Avontuur nummer 1: Brownsberg
http://littlemisssurinam.blogspot.com/2009/03/avontuur-nummer-1-brownsberg.html
Donderdag 12 maart 2009. Avontuur nummer 1: Brownsberg. Intussen heb ik eindelijk mijn eerste trip naar het binnenland gemaakt! Vorige week nam ik eens een taxi van beroemde Jeffrey (betrouwbaar taxibedrijfje die vooral door blanke stagiaires wordt benuttigd), en chauffeur Amir pikte mij op.

Er was nog één plaatsje vrij, en goedkoop! 13 maart 2009 03:49. Volop bezig m...
