"Man weeping" by Bruni Sablan Yesterday evening, I was in a meeting with students discussing their research topics.

Kenyan Mpigs have successfully poisoned the environment, so that it has become difficult to talk about the incompetence of the president without the conversation degenerating into ethnic mudslinging.
