lucyhollis 2 Posted February 24, 2006 I agree with Spencer. Antropologists may be able to answer to what extent should missionaries etc intrude on the natives way of life. It seems weird to be able to say 'this woman is one of the lucky ones', which she probably was, given the sort of (un)hygeinic conditions the amputating would have been taken place in. An interesting picture especially with showing her obviously western style T-shirt. This photo definitely shows a change round the corner. Powerful. Link to comment
whinterberger 0 Posted October 11, 2006 Most interesting picture , for sure , but, Lucy , while it may be a western style T-shirt, it seems to have 'ZIHHAD' (Jihad?) printed on it... Link to comment
