    for Salem

    by Paul Hassell

    Uploaded

    Addis Ababa - I visited Salem each morning for 17 days. Loving thousands was overwhelming, so I just loved one. With her permission and dignity, I recorded the world from her perspective. Watch them. My interactions with Salem changed me. Bending to her level, greeting her, rubbing her back, kissing her hands, whispering in her ear that's she's beautiful, and her leprous eyes glowing once she believed it. These are moments I'll never forget. This

You'll hear from: Dewitt Jones, Amy Gulick, David Doubilet, Florian Schulz, Eric Zamora, Ian Shive, Joe Riis, and Brian Skerry. Let's

    A Song and a Prayer

    by Paul Hassell

    Uploaded

    Here are the beautiful children I was with today. I put this together for you to see their faces and hear their song. They love this Ethiopian anthem. In compiling this tonight I was overcome with the simple reality that each of us has a name to proclaim, a song to sing, and a prayer to pray. Here is theirs. This video is copyright © Paul F.

This afternoon, Davis and I visit Fasil's home in Addis Ababa. His extraordinarily gracious mother lavishes us with every known delicacy. She sprinkles the floor with grasses. The air fills with incense. Our stomachs fill to the brim with delicious injera and meat dishes. The
