Qudus, My emails to you keep coming back to me, so I guess this is the way to reach you! Great pics iof the tour. We miss you all here!
Also, yesterday I finally had some time to sit down and watch your film. It's really great. One thing that struck me was just simply seeing people gather in large crowds and watch you all with wonder. Audiences are often so jaded here in the US and it is really great to be reminded that just watching the body move in space (as you say) can be riveting and inspiring and thought provoking. It seems to me that my impression fits right in with your observation that in the West we want Africa's "innocence" which I think is absolutely true. I'm gonna think on that one some more!
