Thiebu Jen: Bush & Africa

http://carlystewart.blogspot.com/2008/02/bush-in-africa.html

Friday, February 22, 2008. That being said, Africa-wise he hasn’t done all too bad. Not outstanding either. On other fronts … While Bush hasn’t sent American troops into Darfur (should we, could we? Africa's never been a fast-lane kind of place. Love it or hate it, the pace of life, maybe the pan-African philosophy, is ndank ndank (slowly, slowly). That's not how our country rolls, but it seems we've let it define our foreign aid. While were on the topic photographer Antonin Krat. View my complete profile.

Thiebu Jen: such a long long time to be gone and a short time to be there

http://carlystewart.blogspot.com/2008/04/times-flies-laying-low-in-thies-and-la.html

Friday, April 4, 2008. Such a long long time to be gone and a short time to be there. I can tell it's been a while since I last posted anything, because the henna on my feet has long since faded. Except the toenails never lose the color. When you keep an eye out for it, you'll notice on the nails of all the women here strokes of burnt red, in crosses, stripes in some stage or another of growing out. Such a long long time to be gone and a short time . View my complete profile. My Photos a la Flickr. Let t...

Thiebu Jen: May 2008

http://carlystewart.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html

Friday, May 9, 2008. Like her Roman namesake, a child of January. Is continually fixated on gateways and doors. My time in Senegal is unraveling fast; I picture the calendar pages dropping to the floor one after another. How could something so big move so quickly? I came here very empty, in the sense that I had tied up so many loose ends and left them, with an entire ocean behind me. And here I arrived, with little baggage, and the seer couldn’t see a thing in me. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Dioser (ie, ...

Wednesday, March 26, 2008. The tilka's red for the brow of a bride / And betel-nut's red for lips that are sweet; / But, for lily-like fingers and feet / The red, the red of the henna-tree. . Friday, March 21, 2008. Really moving piece by New York Times Op Ed Columnist, Roger Cohen.

Thiebu Jen: pesach in senegal

http://carlystewart.blogspot.com/2008/04/pesach-in-senegal.html

Sunday, April 20, 2008. This is me retelling the part of the story about the parting of the Red Sea. If it weren't obvious enough without the gesticulations. Last night, though, we celebrated Passover. I've found something very poignant in the way our holidays, especially the Jewish holidays, have materialized in this faraway place. My friend Inbal and I planned a sedar for some friends and coworkers, and it was really one of the best I can remember! We drank so much wine, as custom obliged. All nigh...

Thiebu Jen: October 2007

Wednesday, October 24, 2007. Nucleus). It never fails to strike me as something miraculous, that when I finally reach the outskirts of it all, there’s always a taxi driver who know where in God’s name we are. But the market I was at this weekend was, to my surprise and slight dismay, linear. Bought jeans with some blingin sparklies on the behind to wear clubbing! Met some gentlemanly gars. And that was only the beginning of the journey! People invariably tell you: “green.” And green it is! Literally, to ...

Thiebu Jen: November 2007

http://carlystewart.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html

Wednesday, November 28, 2007. Monday, November 19, 2007. Immigration, qu'est-que ce? A couple days ago I posted a link to a trailer for a new independent film by Idrissa Guiro, Barcelona ou la Mort. Barcelona or Death, http:/ docbarcelone.canalblog.com. It’s in French, but I think worth watching because the images alone are visually arresting (for me, their beauty comes from their realism - that’s so Senegal! A preschool, in Senegal where he asks the kids, “Who among you wants to go to Europe? Which aren...
