Greetings to all,me? I currently reside in the deep south near Memphis,TN. after five years in Yorkshire,England.I am also a vegan and a non-traditional student.Why the bible belt south? after repatriating 14 months previous I looked in on a dear friend who lives in Arkansas about 60 miles from Memphis. I discovered during my visit,I qualify for a tuition waiver for all universities within Arkansas. So I traveled To Portland,OR. to retrieve my belongings and the rest is history.
My field of study is international studies, the course requires I learn a foreign language(Spanish) and live abroad for a semester or more. However,I was ill prepared for the deep south. Black,vegan and atheist is the trifecta of whammy's. It appears that a sizable portion of the black masses failed to receive the news of the Emancipation Proclamation.I am sad to report the plantation system in alive and well. Enslaved citizenry inviting me back on the plantation,no thanks!
