Another Talk About My Experience .... PR

While here, I've written everyday about the happenings of Senegal, but I am sure everyone has seen that. There are many different moments I have recorded on paper and in memory. One of the experiences I am sure everyone will be discussing is yesterdays trip. We were stopped by some army men. I personally thought the incident was interesting because don't you think that would have occurred in America? Many times people who are considered outsiders will be stopped because of the appearance. I also think that the driver had every right to become so angry. Wouldn't we have done the same thing if a police officer stopped us for no reason if it had seemed that way. There are many differences, but I think we fail to realize that there are many similarities as well. I liked discussing with different experts on different topics. The woman in Tobou (sp) stated that it was unethical for a woman to report her domestic violence issues to someone outside of the family. Isn't that where we get it from? It meaning the rule, what goes on in the house stays in the house. At the end of the day many things we do in our culture and in many other cultures relates back to Africa.
