In the Wrong Place. June 1, 2016. I sense the fear of admission because I recognize it in myself. I’ve been there. I admit that I could be projecting, but I don’t think that’s what this is. This is what I know it to be:. Deep down, from your inner most being there is a protest. I was not meant for this. This isn’t right.”. But you smother the protest for weeks, months, years. The protest dies, but resurrects itself the next time something happens that isn’t right. Why don’t you listen? May 25, 2016.

RevolutionMe: October 2013

http://revolutionme.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html

Sunday, October 6, 2013. Monuments of the World. I just can't stop. When my best friends moved into a new home, I knew I had to make something special for them. I was trying to think of something that would reflect our homeland. Cities usually have something that represents them - Des Moines has arching bridges over the river and the capitol, New York has skyscrapers, Paris has the Eiffel tower. What does Guthrie Center have? Links to this post. Saturday, October 5, 2013. Anyway, I walking home at night,...

RevolutionMe: The hour of the beach is sacred.

http://revolutionme.blogspot.com/2013/08/the-hour-of-beach-is-sacred.html

Sunday, August 4, 2013. The hour of the beach is sacred. Every Sunday morning, I would wake up the boys around 7:30 or 8. "L'heure de la plage est sacrée," I would say to them. Yawning, stretching, we put on our clothes and migrated towards the front door. Jacob would feed the poultry, while Adrien would push the motorcycle out the front door of the living room. Moto, Jacob, Adrien. Moto soaks in the view while we frolic. 8220;Yovo,” the would yell at me, or “Teacher! 8221; as we beat them to the beach.

RevolutionMe: April 2011

http://revolutionme.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html

Thursday, April 28, 2011. The Poorest of the Poor. . . I can hardly say that I’m spoiled by living in Ouidah. Constant electricity cuts, cold showers , and getting around on foot still dominate my life, and there’s nothing American about that. But I think living in Ouidah has made me more aware of the enormous class difference between the poorest and the richest in Benin. One of Adrien's Brother's 4 wifes with her Grandmother. Adrien's Brother working in his flour mill. Adrien with one of his nephews.

RevolutionMe: January 2011

http://revolutionme.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html

Tuesday, January 18, 2011. A conversation i had with a very old man on the street. Man- Oh, but you're handsome. Links to this post. Monday, January 17, 2011. The event consisted of several speeches and unfortunately, the authorities were whisked away before the actual Voudon ceremonies took place. “The mayor is having a reception, want to come? This is really a festive season in Ouidah. The Voudon Festival was accompanied by an International Dance Festival “AGOGO” and an International Fi...Simple templa...

(I’ve lived in Des Moines for three years, and there seems to be an unspoken rule that you can’t really call yourself an Iowan until you’ve seen a community theater group sing “ Iowa Stubborn. Have him obnoxiously hit on a woman he’s just met on the street. Insulting her intelligence and giving her a demeaning nickname doesn’t hurt, either.). OMGDSM #004 – Community Youth. August 2, 2014.
