"I believe it is important to tell the children the truth. At one time America was almost universally "loved". However that isn't the case anymore."

View from the ground in Sudan:
But, even in the deepest corners, the Sudanese know about America. I had a small (12"x18" US flag sewn inside my vest. When I’ve visited villagers at some small dirt airstrip deep in the bush, and talked with them, eventually I’d be asked from what country I had come. I’d of course tell them America and then take off my vest to show the crowd. This small act always results in cheers. Just the sight of the Stars and Stripes was a nourishment of sorts for these impoverished people.
