Ryszard Kapuscinski on The Shadow of the Sun - The John Adams Institute
On November 12, 2017, The John Adams Institute presented a lecture by the eminent Polish journalist and author Ryszard Kapuscinski, who talked about his life’s work and his book The Shadow of the Sun, a masterfully written account of his travels through Africa, his favorite continent. Kapuschinski avoided the official tours as well as the plus hotels, palaces and high politics. Instead, he explored and painted a verbal portrait of the complex society of this vast land. The skillful author brings a story to life that is usually told in terms of dehumanizing statistics and the rhetoric of politics, and his personal account of post-colonial Africa bears witness to customs and practices seen in their own terms – as human responses to an often tormenting environment.
