Your Negro Travel Guide. Coonin’ All Over The World. It’s been a while. Last time we talked I was living in Hong Kong, working at an investment bank and trying my damnedest to get fired so that I could get a severance package. Well, eventually I gave up and quit. And after a few months a few of the most bloggable months of my life, so bloggable that I didn’t have time to blog them–I moved back to the US and enrolled at Harvard Law School. It’s good to be back. March 13, 2011. 1 Comment ».

Your Negro Travel Guide. Coonin’ All Over The World. My worst fear, realized. Three fears have haunted me since childhood. I’ve never revealed these to anyone for fear that I would somehow speak them into existence, but recent events have caused rethink my silence. I wouldn’t wish wish any one of the these atrocities on my worst enemy (and yet, I wish all three of them on the creators of Soul Plane, and Rihanna). 1 Falling down the stairs and cracking all my teeth. 2 Losing a limb in a freak accident.

The Objectification of TG « Your Negro Travel Guide

Your Negro Travel Guide. Coonin’ All Over The World. The Objectification of TG. Here’s another story from last year, which occurred during the first couple of weeks after I got to Dalian, right after I found my apartment. Enjoy! The head officer, who had not cracked a smile yet, approached me, pointed to my face and then gave me a thumbs up. But it was the same way that a car mechanic would give a thumbs up while looking under the hood at a carburetor. It really made me feel like some of object&#...I sim...

Your Negro Travel Guide. Coonin’ All Over The World. I’ve been in Kigali for a couple days now. The city is really beautiful and the people are warm and friendly. I haven’t bumped into my old dean again. Thank God. But I’ve gone out of my way to make sure that doesn’t happen. But so far, so good. I just couldn’t imagine picking myself up and carrying on with day-t0-day tasks after everything that I know and love has been taken from me. It sounds cheesy, but this experience really has left me in...Anyway,...

Your Negro Travel Guide. Coonin’ All Over The World. You Only Bump Into People You Don’t Want to See. From Boston to DC. From DC to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. From Addis Ababa, Ethiopia to Kigali, Rwanda, I’ve been on a plane for the past 36 hours. I don’t like talking to people on planes. I know I should. I‘ve heard that you can meet the most fascinating people that way. But that’s not been my experience. They may seem like extreme measures to take but doing so brings me peace and tranquility. Backstory: Du...

Your Negro Travel Guide. Coonin’ All Over The World. Sandwiches are ruining my life. What quality do I like most about myself? As for me, I get my thrills in other, more economical ways. Last Friday I went to the ATM and took out $100. I resolved that I would live within a $100 budget for that entire week. All my expenses–food, transportation, entertainment, laundry, everything–would have to be $100 or, preferably, less. Well, it’s Wednesday morning, and that $100 has been gone for three days. I’m ...

Your Negro Travel Guide. Coonin’ All Over The World. It’s 4AM and I can’t sleep. Everyone is going to wake up in a couple hours so that we can go traipse up this damn mountain looking for gorillas. In other news, how does one know if he has malaria? I have a cough. Normally a cough is just a cough. But when you’re in the jungle a cough is malaria, at least in my mind. Especially when you didn’t sleep in your mosquito net the night before. March 15, 2011. On Sandwiches are ruining my…. Best Baby Bath Tubs.
