A calm, well-patterned series of natural landscapes intertwined in a network of similar structures, strangled my sight, as my delta flight in the air is touching the sunday of June 26, 2006. in the morning. This is indeed my first important visual impression of the United States.
I speak English at the University of Sierra Leone at Fula Bay College, a small former colony of West Africa that is close to Liberia. These two countries have been involved in civil war for more than a decade, but are now working to restore peaceful democracy and economic reconstruction and development. In fact, we have just ended two rounds of elections in Sierra Leone, in which the government changed peacefully, in addition to isolated small-scale conflicts in some parts of the country. I have already mentioned Liberia because most Americans buy it to make it easier to recognize it because its fate is very close to the United States. In addition, Liberians have the same pattern of speech and share the dollar as a national treaty with Americans. But Liberia has much in common with Sierra Leone because we share certain races, flora and fauna and the two regional institutions, the Economic Commission for West African States [ECOWAS] and the Mano River Union [MRU].
The American mind has been lingering. But I never thought that as a guest of the State Department, Louisville will come to the United States through four other strategic cities so soon, 17 of them from all over the world, India, Nepal, Palestine, Tunisia, Jordan, . Turkey, Congo Kinshasa, Togo, Cameroon, Brazil, China, Mauritius, Philippines, Vietnam and Serbia.
My earliest connection with the United States came from novels and biographies of great Americans. The film is usually broadcast by Freetown's then US Information Service [USIS], Voice of America [VOA], a music request program hosted by Yvonne Barclay in Liberia, and a link to a program of conversations between friends and friends in Sierra Leone, hosted by Sierra Leone. Ted Roberts learned more about my understanding of the United States. A glimpse of American life is also derived from more regular features and news programs. The American Library has formed a huge resource that has greatly enhanced my understanding, familiarity and desire for the United States. . However, my desire is not a devastating thing, because many young Africans just do anything to get to the United States. Many people have been deceived for a lifetime and become so depressed that suicide seems to be their most Possible choice. The mine is disappointing. Thirty years ago, I graduated from Fula Bay College and went to the United States to seek a master's degree in mass communication. This is my favorite career choice. Seeing time soon will be bad for me, I have to choose the same postgraduate diploma in Fula Bay College. Then I went directly to the Master of Arts in African Studies and considered expanding my interest and knowledge in the field. Later I published from
Folklore from Freetown from
It became a way for the omen to prepare for me. It is housed in many university libraries in the United States as well as the Library of Congress.
Contact with the US Embassy I can say that I have been a member of his library for more than three decades. There, I watched countless movies on TV and witnessed their live events, such as the US election. These facilities have been open to us to accommodate writers and writers. Meetings, poetry readings and other cultural events. I remember that about fifteen years ago, they took part in a discussion group on two volumes of American short stories and filmed a film for nearly four months under the leadership of the American host. I think this is my most enduring study of American culture. Afterwards, I must be prepared to teach American literature to the last year of Florida F College. I am very happy about this. I am also grateful that students in that field are developing great interest. I have started writing manuals to complete my lectures, which are: from
The development of American literature from
with from
Langston Hughes: Celebrating the life and works of black dignity from
.
At the same time, I held three lectures at the embassy to commemorate two important events in the United States: Black history month with American independence Celebrations. I remember taking over the last year of the course six years ago and looking forward to relishing a fascinating collection of American novels, drama and poetry. I rarely know that such an effort will soon begin - visas are not too fussing, quickly promoted to international visitors with other international visitors and accomplished professors to share ideas and ideas for 30 days, about 20 or more contemporary American writers, visit the website Louisville and four other cities, San Francisco, Berkeley, Cincinnati, Washington, DC cultural attractions and excuses for dining at the restaurant quickly peek into an Indianapolis, then begin a musical and symbolic cruise in Ohio reminiscent of Hack Finn explored the Mississippi River with his black companion Jim in Mark Twain's novel.
Imagine how happy and anticipating my feelings are when my invitation is confirmed and ready to start a journey. I had to travel to the neighbouring Republic of Guinea overnight because it had been freed from the conflict and had been providing consular services to Sierra Leone for the past eight years. After five days of intuition by a young Fula friend who accompanied me, we crossed in time to escape the upcoming national labor strike and hold a US visa passport.
Two weeks later, on my way to the United States, I first airborne in London. When our Astreus plane descended on the runway, a new world began to open to me. I took the train and bus to Gapden on Gatwick Airport on the same day, and accompanied by another friend, Rosemarie, saw many attractions that I only knew through books.
The next day, Delta's long-haul flight landed at the waiting Cincinnati airport. As more hands are available and free, our paper has received a lot of research. If it weren't for the thorough guidance I received at the embassy, I was shocked by the rigorous checks I had to accept, and almost everything except the clothes. But the face of the United States is already underway. Older people who retired long ago in our country, in this age of terror, ensure that their country remains safe. Young and old officials perform their duties in a thorough and determined manner, while realizing that they are responsible for being polite and capable of meeting tourists.
So when I arrived at Louisville Airport, I had easily crossed the escalator while I was traveling, until I saw this cumbersome man with a beard, the right hand holding the banner of the University of Louisville, and the other holding a portfolio. I am amazed when we close and embroider each other, we recognize each other quickly. I know that he is Dr. Tom Byers, chairman Summer American Institute . His simplicity and humility immediately moved me. We received and received another representative, and I immediately recognized the content of traveling with me, and I did not expect that we would participate in the same event at the same time. Dr. Byers introduced us to us. He is Ayao from Togo. Dr. Byers then helped us drive his vehicle. We were crossed through the building, evenly symmetrical, and aligned with the terraced and terraced gardens, just like the grass we should see in the Garden of Eden. Dr. Byers has been showing us important buildings until he leads us into the newest hostel, Kurtz Hall, which will be our home for the next six weeks. It smells fresh. The well-tended gardens around the world are constantly using some young and smart boys wearing red T-shirts and black shorts, watering the hedges and green carpets through the nozzles.
I was almost immediately plagued by the harmony of architecture and nature on campus. The brown brick box structure with a trapezoidal roof pattern seems to blend harmoniously with the green carpet park. Each adjacent tarmac parking lot is surrounded by squirrels and is unscrupulously abandoned in this soothing beautiful nest to heal or Transfer the mind.
The University of Louisville is a state-supported research university and a municipally supported public institution for decades before joining the university system in 1970. As a public university, the Kentucky Conference called for it to be a "Universal Research University of Excellence", enrolling 118 students from 120 states in Kentucky, 50 states in the United States, and 116 countries worldwide.
In line with its lofty mission and mission to it. The University of Louisville has made rapid progress in all areas. The University of Louisville Health Science Center is now one of the most innovative medical research centers in the United States, and in 2006 developed the first 100% effective cervical cancer vaccine, the first fully independent artificial heart transplant. It was the first successful hand transplant and Pap smear. U of L is also known as the first civilian ambulance, the nation's first accident service, now known as the emergency room [ER], one of which...
