Description

Black Sheep: Adventures In West Africa is a memoir written by Jean Kenyon MacKenzie about her experiences living and working in West Africa. The book is a collection of stories that detail her travels and the people she met along the way. MacKenzie spent several years in West Africa, working as a teacher and later as a journalist. She writes about her encounters with local politicians, tribal leaders, and everyday people, providing a unique perspective on the region's culture and history. The book also explores the challenges of living in a foreign country, including language barriers, cultural differences, and the difficulties of adjusting to a new way of life. Throughout the book, MacKenzie reflects on her own identity as a white American in a predominantly black African society, and the ways in which her experiences challenged her preconceptions about race and privilege. Black Sheep is a compelling and insightful memoir that offers a fascinating glimpse into West African culture and the complexities of cross-cultural interaction.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
