Khadim's Family
I spent the bulk of this day with Khadim, riding Dakar's "crazy buses," having lunch of djebu yopp, being hit on by his smiley friend, learning to make attaya, and haggling for items at the market. I believe the mother of the twins was his cousin.
This photo also represents one piece of photographic evidence to support my hypothesis that because Senegalese life at present is still vastly more traditional and un-homogenized (to match the rest of the world, that is) than American or European life (specifically parenting), children grow up feeling more whole, loved, and connected. I meant to cover this in the Continuum Concept section of my thesis, but it will only be covered in future drafts of the work.
