wait did you mean in general/everyone? (cause ^^^ im talking about black folk)

usaid types, (mainly white), ex peace-corp types
the usual randumb humanitarian types
we got many us-based ngos and you know how we do in the aid industry (rather import people than hire from the region).
i've pretty much only worked us-based ngos (looking to do better, tho)
would definitely prefer to see more Blacks (not these tho- except my friend L, she's pretty awesome)
