Even saying that, I fall into what I know is a language trap: there is no single Africa, though it is convenient for us to say so and therefore think it. \u00a0I can be more specific and write that we are going to Tanzania, but this supposes, too, that the naming of a nationality somehow captures the identity of a country still relatively new to that status (1961).<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Post Pt 2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.8&#8243; text_font=&#8221;PT Serif||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#363636&#8243; text_font_size=&#8221;20&#8243; text_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|tablet&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;1.4em&#8221; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221; max_width=&#8221;620px&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;60px||0px|&#8221; custom_margin_tablet=&#8221;40px||0px|&#8221; custom_margin_last_edited=&#8221;on|tablet&#8221; use_border_color=&#8221;off&#8221; border_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There have been numerous efforts to forge a unity inside that nation-state status, to either describe the common traits they share (among 120+ tribes\/ethnicities and equal number of languages spoken) or to legally bind policy claims to that identity (like Nyerere\u2019s \u00a0socialist concept of<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> ujamaa<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, an economic\/development policy, but certainly one that impacted how Tanzania would define the roles of women and families and the purpose of work).

I long ago learned that the more expectations I place on a new country, especially one so different from my own, the harder it is to learn from that place. My ignorance-conceived expectations for India might well have ruined that trip for me had I hung on to them for too long.

And I also know that the impact of Western thinking on Tanzanian history long predates our little trip. First Germany and the Britain held dominion over the peoples there, and we will spend our first week exploring that history. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our second week will involve a service project that has been defined by the local leaders&#8211;we\u2019ll share in the work of bringing bathroom plumbing to a school there. Finally, we\u2019ll spend our third week in the obligatory (but nature-conserving funding of) safari. We\u2019ll meet the Maasai people, as well, and this might be one of the most interesting moments for me: to see how their resistance to full modernization manifests itself. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In all, however, we travel as a group with some common questions of the international politics of development. It\u2019s a boon to have a Model UN team that has been well-versed in these issues from a macro view; now we will meet it together while sharing a common language of policy and our study of Tanzania history. And where we can abstract our politics, the discussions that emerge from our local concrete experiences are where meaning and purpose are made.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s go.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243;][et_pb_divider show_divider=&#8221;off&#8221;
