Hi...
ReplyDeleteThis is Olivia... I follow you as Tosie but that's not the point. I'm just wondering about the blog posts and the blog itself... is this meant to be a Kenya-specific blog? Because I think that if it is, you might turn off readers who expect more than stories about Kenya when they see 'Africa' in the blog title. I'm African so I understand how Kenya is a significant African nation ... guess I just need you to specify whether this blog is meant to celebrate Kenya specifically or Africa as a whole or, celebrate Africa with Kenya as a focal point. We can't be blind to the existence of national biases and I think this excellent blog should celebrate more of Africa in order to bypass the bias and have people focus on the goodness of its contents.
I love the article about Kenya by Marie... good job girl, I most definitely appreciate the very realistic yet beautiful perspective from which the piece is written.
Hey Tosie!
ReplyDeleteNope, it is not a Kenya-specific blog. I think initially with the single article on it seemed that way. As things progress, you will see it is more multi-faceted!
Cheers
