Morgan -- wish you were here
Hi Morgan.
In your absence, Casey and I started talking about a possible field trip, to see Nelson Mandela's drawings, which are on display at the American Tobacco Building in Durham.
In class, Casey wondered who had been imprisoned longer -- Mandela or Jomo Kenyatta. Looks Like Mandela by more than a decade and a half :)
What matters here is less the time, and more the question of why each was imprisoned. For class Weds (assuming you are well enough) let's plan to have a quick discussion about those two leaders, and then look at Ch 22. Casey is preparing a talk on Japan (last 4-5 pages), so in the next chapter, you should plan to do the same...
Hope to see you Weds.
