Im not so much speaking about our identity issues cause we are fucked up when it comes to that
(i walk around juba and see so many women bleaching their skin yet we are the blackest people i know)
im mainly speaking about, whether or not poor people here still have some opportunity to actually succeed vs having a whole system that ensures that you can barely make it out.
i feel like there is a sense of complete lack of hope in the us. that i dont see in africa
(outside of drugdealing, playing football or nba)
i might be wrong,
but working with poor kids in the u.s and then working with poor kids in kenya?
there was still ambition amongst kids who might never make it that i didnt sense in the u.s
