Dear Mr. White, Thank you, so much, for taking us to Ethiopia. I was touched and in awe of the the Ethiopian culture. But, the conversation that you had with the wonderful young man at the festival, touched my heart. His heart and his knowledge of who we need to be as fellow humans was truly inspiring.
I think a public service announcement, using that young mans thoughts and beliefs, played on loop in America would serve us well.
Your show is wonderful. I pray many blessings upon you.
Dear Mr. White,
I watched your program for the first time today. I found it fascinating and important, especially listening to the community members talk about their cultures and how all cultures are woven into the beautiful tapestry of humanity. Yet, inspiring as they are, I am troubled by a common occurrence I see on all western television; the Puritanism of the human body. I find it audacious that you travel to these remote communities on the globe, to bring we western viewers the reality of people and places we would not normally meet, then blur the natural beauty of their bodies, not to respect them, but to hide their natural body parts from our stupidly sensitive eyes. Your program then becomes more about us than about them. For years I have gone to western museums and marveled how curators went to such trouble to remove the genitalia of statues so as not to offend our Judaeo-Christian sensibilities – more precisely our absurdity.
Sincerely,
David Rothauser
