\"\"<\/p>\n

We have been so long gone from Africa. <\/span><\/p>\n

We sometimes fail to recognize <\/span><\/p>\n

that the new arrivals are also us. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The major difference is <\/span><\/p>\n

they just came here <\/span><\/p>\n

on the late-night plane touchdown <\/span><\/p>\n

rather than early in the morning <\/span><\/p>\n

on the sufferation boats <\/span><\/p>\n

that shipped us here, <\/span><\/p>\n

so long ago.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We seem so different. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We sometimes hardly recognize each other, <\/span><\/p>\n

although, psychologically, <\/span><\/p>\n

we face much of the same challenges. <\/span><\/p>\n
