The Peace Mann
Met this man at the café. He’s walked around Europe looking for peace. Said his heart was broken in East Germany. 30% are racist and 70% don’t care. He’s been walking for 30 years, since the wall fell. Never turn away from a houseless person, he said. He said it had been 30 years and he couldn’t understand why it was still so. I told him in Canada and the USA we see that as very short since 300 years is not long enough to heal the wounds of slavery and genocide. He said he doesn’t understand my culture and he doesn’t understand his own.
Thank you for translating, Sasha.
