Mawazo kuhusu Marekani
I got home three days ago, and it’s almost like I never left. I get flashes of “…wait, that’s not right”: looking right instead of left when I cross the street; a doubletake when I reflexively poured myself a glass of tapwater; astonishment at the cleanness–no dust! no mud!; the feeling that I should know every white person I see on the street. But it feels natural to be here, feels normal to be seeing family and friends.
