In May 2011, the U.S. Embassy in Honduras held the “Portraits of My People: Afro-Hondurans” photo contest, honoring the U.N. International Year for People of African Descent. Contest entries explored the unique cultures of Afro-Honduran/mixed indigenous peoples. Afro-Hondurans, mostly found in communities along the Atlantic Coast, “live lives suffused by the joy and power of the sea,” says photographer Arturo Sosa.

Dear God,
This reminds me of the beam you shone upon my heart a few weeks ago. Was it the relocation or my own departure that stopped the connection?
I need this again. Peel my pains away.
Love,
S
