“It's true that tribal rivalries have something to do with political instability. It's also true that those rivalries were exaggerated by colonialism. Colonialism essentially insulted the tribal territories, and as a result, nations came to be composed of an agglomeration of many tribes - 65 in Burkina Faso alone.

“I feel a reassuring oneness with other people when I find that even my most intimate, anguished, socially inadmissible emotions and desires are known to others.... Kindred soulsâ€”indeed, my selves otherwise costumedâ€”turn up in books in the most unexpected places. Discovering them is one of the great rewards of a liberal education.
