If Africa is the cradle of humanity, I found my cradle there: in Ndem
For years, I had been looking for my small paradise, a place
where life would be enjoyable. A simple, welcoming land at the source of my identity. I was even ready to go and live in a Rastafarian community in Jamaica, to tell you the truth!
In brief. I am Senegalese, I am 36 years old, and I had been looking for authenticity for 20 years. Should I explain?... That I am trying to own what I am, a Negress who wants to embrace her culture, her differences and go back to the source of this negritude.
I crossed the world. I left Africa, my native Dakar, to go to Europe. Then I did a small tour in Asia.
India upset me , but I found only a little bit mat copy of Africa there (as it is described in the Egyptian period, in the work of
Cheick Anta Diop, Nations Négres and Culture). I was very touched by the Caribbean’s but, I still missed the wilderness of Africa that was so (this part of wild shade of Africa)anchored in me and which shouted with quite a lot of strength.
On returning to Dakar, I had a walk of the side Bambay. You exit the city, and there opens an immense field of Baobabs which extends overhundreds of kilometers, with nothing else in view.Then you leave the road and take the dirt track
Others will name it a track, or...The heat is excruciating, the wind is also warm. In the car, it is
The heat is excruciating, the wind is also warm. In the car, it issilent. I cannot speak. My heart says to me that I am going to
arrive and that I shall have the answer. The answer that’s been buried in me for millenaries.
As we say so well the road to paradise is long and a little difficult. I am incredibly zen this morning. Sticky. I have to get out under the scorching heat to push the car. The sand is burning . The shepherds help us. They come on their own, push
the car and put us in the right direction. We get lost, we go round in circles, a little. I am still zen. Patience becomes again my best friend, even though I’m well known for my speediness.
There, we say to ourselves that it is necessary to be attentive to what is going to take place, it is important. Fields of baobabs stopwith the most majestic, the most massive of them, and here is theentrance of the village of Ndem.
I had seen this baobab years before in a dream. I was at
its feet and the biggest and blackest man I had ever seen, gave me a lesson about life. Today I am in front of the same majestic tree which symbolizes the goddess Hator (the goddess of the sycamore which I chose as a guide, or which was imposed upon me) and I say to myself that I have arrived at my final destination. I found my paradise.
Once the entrance is crossed, we are wrapped in a dense serenity,as if we were entering a kingdom in which time would be
suspended at once and at the same time would continue to flow with the normal rhythm. I want to say that
"I met myself again ", as if my soul and I had just jumped again into my carnal envelope, as Platoon described it.
This part of oneself that we can spend a lifetime looking for, I found it in the bend of a street in my "cradle", in this place where life
begins.
In my whole life, I had never seen a village that emanated that kind of peace, simplicity, authenticity and spirituality:
these qualities manifest through the burning sand you walk on and slowly propagate through out your whole body.
They also manifest through the inhabitants who say hello to you with a reverence as in the time of Damels: we kneel down and remain in this position during the 5 to 10 minutes that the greetings last. We lower our heads; take news from the whole family with genuine expressions of politenesses, in the Valaf language that we hardly hear anymore these days and with a smile which congeals your heart. I felt re-entered into African traditions that I had not seen since the time when my nanny was still alive...
Lunch was a traditional dish with rice, groundnut and dried fish... I had never eaten anything that good. From the first moment, you know that you are at home, the energy you feel is friendly, and
you say to yourselves that you cannot leave any more

New Yosemite And Sequoia National Parks Tour Keeps History Of America’s “Buffalo Soldiers” Alive
- Filmmaker Ken Burns And Leading Tour Operator Tauck Tell The Story Of Pioneering African-American Soldiers -
NORWALK, CT (May 7, 2012) Award-winning filmmaker Ken Burns is working with Tauck, one of the world’s top tour operators, to tell the story of America’s Buffalo Soldiers as part of a new Tauck itinerary that explores San Francisco and the National Parks of Northern California, including Yosemite, Sequoia and Kings Canyon. The history of the Buffalo Soldiers in the parks is one of several cultural narratives that Tauck will highlight in its new, all-inclusive, 8-day guided journey, “Yosemite And Sequoia: John Muir’s California.” Other themes weaving through the Tauck itinerary include the story of visionary naturalist John Muir and the creation of America’s National Parks system.
The Buffalo Soldiers were African-American U.S. Army troops who served in the American West and elsewhere during the late 1800s and early 1900s. Native American in origin, the term “Buffalo Soldier” has been attributed variously to the soldiers’ fierce fighting ability, and to the resemblance of the soldiers’ hair to a tuft of fur found atop the heads of buffalos.
What is more firmly established is that Buffalo Soldiers from the 9th Cavalry and 24th Infantry were garrisoned in San Francisco’s Presidio in 1899, shortly after Yosemite and Sequoia were established as national parks. Seeking to protect the parks’ resources in the era before park rangers, the Army deployed the Buffalo Soldiers to the parks to prevent illegal grazing and poaching, discourage timber thieves and serve a host of other functions. Performing admirably despite having little official authority, the Buffalo Soldiers endured long hours in the saddle, separation from home and family, and the overt racism common to the era.
According to filmmaker Burns, the Buffalo Soldiers had “the very complicated and difficult task of trying to take care of this place, being African-Americans in a country that had just freed the slaves, but was not yet sure what the African-American role would be in our society.” Burns, who created the award-winning documentary series “The National Parks: America’s Best Idea,” sees the story of the Buffalo Soldiers as a way of weaving African-American history into the National Parks experience.
“We’ve had in the United States a very complicated history with race, obviously. But what we’ve tended to leave out is the story of African-Americans, not as a separate part of our national narrative, but interwoven with it,” said Burns. “The significance of the Buffalo Soldiers is a way for African-Americans to say, ‘We are part of this history,’ ‘We have been part of this history.’ They are – in fact – a huge part of the history. And with regards to the National Parks, they are crucial.”
Tauck’s “Yosemite And Sequoia: John Muir’s California” itinerary begins with two nights in San Francisco, where guided sightseeing will include a visit to the historic Presidio where the Buffalo Soldiers were garrisoned. At the Presidio, Tauck guests will learn of the Buffalo Soldiers’ roots in the post-Civil War era, their service with Teddy Roosevelt’s “Rough Riders” in Cuba, and their role in the Philippine-American War. In Sequoia National Park. Tauck guests will hear the story of Buffalo Soldiers commander Charles Young, the third African-American to graduate from West Point and the first to oversee one of America’s National Parks. Guests will also get Burns’s own personal perspectives on the Buffalo Soldiers during a special 20-minute film produced exclusively for Tauck, featuring interview footage with Burns and special excerpts from his National Parks documentary.
A SPECIAL PRESENTATION BY PARK RANGER SHELTON JOHNSON
A true highlight for many guests on the Tauck journey will take place in Yosemite National Park, when they have the opportunity to “meet” a Buffalo Soldier as portrayed by Shelton Johnson. An African-American Park Ranger and Buffalo Soldiers expert, Johnson is an author and educator who has been awarded the National Park Service’s highest honor for ranger interpretation. Johnson was prominently featured in the Burns National Parks documentary, and his “in-character,” interpretive presentation is a special Tauck-exclusive experience.
Tauck’s Yosemite tour (from $4,290 per person, double-occupancy, plus airfare) begins with a two-night stay at The Weston St. Francis in San Francisco, complete with guided sightseeing. The itinerary next includes a pair of two-night stays at “inside-the-park” lodges in Sequoia and Yosemite National Parks (with daily sightseeing and other activities), before concluding with a final night at the Fairmont San Francisco.
