Encounter at Qohaito v1.2

This video tells the story of an encounter which I and a number of friends experienced in Eritrea on 4 July, 1969 - a most remarkable Independence Day.
The video is intended to enhance and expand a radio essay I produced in 2006 for broadcast on Tales From the South (www.talesfromthesouth.com), a locally produced program hosted by Paula Morell broadcast on KUAR-FM in Little Rock, which gives a venue for writers to have their works heard. During the first season, when this was produced and broadcast, the recordings were recorded in the KUAR studio, rather than read before a live audience at Paula's Starving Artist Café, as they have been subsequently.
This is a revised release, & hopefully the final one.

This is the first time I've seen this. Nice job of story telling.

Masterful story telling. It is such a shame that independence has not brought the freedom that people hoped. I remember with great pleasure Ted Sullinger's class.

A case in point that Eritreans "Will not give what's ours and will not take what's not ours". Still seeking justice.

Entay umo kiabis. You the ELF couldn't succeed in securing a united leadership and once EPLF united with their Christian brethren the TLF and hit you hard you crossed the border to the Sudan never to reorganize again. That's a history both ELF and EPLF should be ashamed of. EPLF uniting with TLF on the basis of religion was a national betrayal and ELF puting leadership power aspirations before a national cause was selfishness and their inability to reorganize under a united leadership and fight back is an excellent example of a terrible failure. This statement is going to be disturbing to both EPLF and ELF as well as Eritrean Christian and Muslims but it's historical fact and truth should be told.
