The Bodi (or Meen) tribe lives close to the Omo River in southern Ethiopia (Omo Valley) and has the Mursi tribe as south neighbor and Konso at north; It is a pastoral and agricultural tribe, thus livestock plays a large role in the tribe; Along the banks of the river, they cultivate sorghum, maize and coffee;
For their new year in June, called Kael, Bodi men consume large amounts of blood and milk to become overweight;Â This tradition measures the body fat of a contestant; Each family or clan is allowed to present an unmarried contestant;Â The winner of this contest is awarded great fame by the tribe;Â The women in the tribe wear goatskin skirts and have a plug inserted into their chin; Most of them are now Christians;
In Hana Mursi, the main town of the Bodis, the government plans to settle 300 000 people from all over Ethiopia over the next few years; Along with the workers and soldiers, AIDS and Hepatitis B are coming too; The Bodi tribespeople do not want to give up their traditions and their land to allow the new sugar cane plantations irrigated by the water of Gibe 3 dam, and live in the settlements planned by the government; If the Konso tribe attempts to set foot on their land with the support of the government, clashes will erupt as the Bodi elders predict;

Shane left a bunch of his stuff at my house when he visited in 2006. This yo-yo was in the pocket of his leather jacket. In 2008 I called to let him know that "I've claimed ownership of your leather jacket." He said "That's cool, just don't lose the yo-yo in the pocket." The yo-yo still resides in the same small front pocket. Shane died in a car crash in July 2009.
Shane was a best friend, closer to a little brother. I knew him for 24 years, he was 38 when he died.
Revolution of the yo-yo when in motion.
Revolution of our planet, how one day someone is there, the next day they're gone.
Revolution of Shane's life, a rebellious boy then a rebellious man, who lived life on his own terms.
Revolution of the leather jacket that Shane owned and lived life in it for 15 years and now I live life in it.
Revolution against upside down and blurred vision that has caused many wars and much death in human history.
