= = Wow. What a cool guy and what an amazing story. You'll be surprised by his gentleness and wisdom especially given his experiences in war. But when you hear about the beautiful life in his country Sierra Leone BEFORE the war, it's a little easier to see why he's so neat. What a testament to the human spirit and to the profound need for the world to see others as individuals, as human beings, as people not objects or enemies or criminals or victims. We have a lot to learn from this guy. Check out more on the Sierra Leone page.
