My Swahili children: chai ya maziwa

Paula Gormley

I am white. My children are from two separate worlds: United States and Tanzania. We are living in the US, but I am grooming them for lives in which they, children of privilege, will have an obligation to help their African brothers and sisters. I always tell people that they have that African charm. It’s in their DNA.

chai ya maziwa = milk with tea
