A 1953 African Road Trip Anticipates the Shape of Things to Come
Irene Tinker wrote a memoir of her experiences driving through colonial Africa as the countries were demanding independence. She interviewed administrators and politicians: British, African, East Indian, and Arabs; and talked to bartenders and servants. While she typed on a portable Olivetti, her husband kept the small British car in working order. They encountered flash floods and shiftas, elephants and ostriches. Tinker utilized the knowledge gained in her career as a professor and international development activist. Irene will speak about her fascinating experiences at Mirabella on the fourth Tuesday of August. For more information about Irene, visit http://irenetinker.com/.
