One of the interview sessions that we did upon our return to Freetown was at the home of Arthur Abraham. Dr. Abraham is Chair, Professor of History and Eminent Scholar in the History and Philosophy Department at Virginia State University.

The hammock looked quite comfortable. Dr. Abraham had a meal prepared for the end of the interview - cassava leaves and rice - which was eaten family style on the patio.

 These two young girls wanted me to take a "snap."

The one on the right resisted my urge to smile at first.
