“As children in a small village in Sierra Leone, my friends and I dreamed of travelling the world like the missionaries who opened our village school. As a British subject, I dreamed of walking the streets of London. I imagined my self in the United States of America visiting the places where the cowboy movies were made.”
Francis Mandewah, FRIENDSHIP: A True Story of Adventure, Goodwill, and Endurance

“We came from different backgrounds; he was white from privileged class in America, and I black from a village in Africa, but he was kind generous, and he reached out to this young poor black boy. He changed the odds against me. Our friendship rose above race.”
FRIENDSHIP: A True Story of Adventure, Goodwill, and Endurance.
