i attended a brilliant book reading on friday of our kind of people, by doctor/writer uzodinma iweala, with conversation moderated by open city author teju cole. the book is about how patients, activists, and ordinary nigerians have dealt with the epidemic. i've never before heard such real talk about HIV/AIDS in nigeria by such brilliant minds. amazing. check out an npr interview of iweala here, but trust me when i say that nobody gives as good an interview as teju. ;;;)
