namibia is a country of contrasts...
Today we took a tour of Windhoek. First we left our "posh" neighborhood and went to one of the highest places in the city to view the city. From where we stood, it looked like a beautiful, well-off city. Yet as our tour continued we entered into a very different side of the city. It was called Katatura. Katatura is a home to many black Namibians who were originally forced to live there when apartheid plagued South Africa and Namibia.
How can people live in tin shacks with inadequate water, schooling and health care live so closely to people who have so much?
this is a struggle we all must wrestle with..
