The reality is this: the people of this distant land are just the same as us. We all breath the same air, walk on the same earth, live under the same sun. We all enjoy a "Good morning" when we walk down the street or a friendly wave in the afternoon. Although to the average eye African and Western lives are far apart, Bokhout has stressed that they are so similar as well.

Bokhout agreed that the Western community does not know what it's like to lose a family member to AIDS, nor what poverty or an empty stomach feels like. She, however, felt the same heartache when told a story where a white woman hugged an African mother who just watched her child die from AIDS.

And in their need, I see that they have many reasons to cry out.
