Nixon Part 1 🇰🇪
Apart we are small, but together we can be an impenetrable fortress. A salesman gives me the standard pitch on buying artwork. I put my hand on his shoulder and tell him I love it, but I have no money and no means of getting it home. I walked outside and find a bench to sit down and take in to new surroundings. Flat african plains bordered by distant rolling hills only a short distance from the busy Nairobi streets. I'm sitting on farmland
Nixon tells me his tribe is responsible for education. He has a son at university in Nairobi, his first born of the four he had in wedlock.

In that time, he produced three other illegitimate boys. Boys, he says, have become strong men
