Brasil
tem meu coração
(Brasil has my heart)
By
Nanga'ah Ndumu
Last
month, I wrote about my adventures in Habana,
Cuba. This month, my writing will take you
to Salvador da Bahia, Brasil (Salvador is
the city, and Bahia is the state). Brasil
is the country with the second most people
of African descent, second only to Nigeria.
Bahia is regarded as Brazil's most historic
state, and has retained strong links with
the African heritage of many of the people.
The population is 80% black (well, black
from an American perspective, because in
Brasil, the concept of race is totally different).

THE
SCENIC ROUTE
By
Kimberly Mantuano
So
we have to walk 100 meters to take a bus,
then a subway train, then a regular train,
another bus, a plane, and then a what? A
boat? Seriously? It was really true. And
then we even had to take another bus. Public
transportation is, without a doubt, the
European way. In the United States, there
are only a handful of cities that make it
easy to live without a car and the rest
of the entire country requires one.

DO
YOU NEED $$$ FOR COLLEGE?

One
of the main reasons why many students don’t
pursue a higher education is the lack of
money available to pay for it. If your answer
is YES, don’t let yourself be discouraged
by all of the increasing cost related to
pursuing that college degree. Don’t let
the statistics prevent you from applying
for the degree or school of your choice.
