Myrick, J. CP #6
Onur and I met before I left for the holidays and this time was a learning experience. I introduced him to some of my friends who talked to him about an organization I'm apart of, and Onur said that he wanted to join. But, unfortunately, I told him he would have to wait until next fall before that could happen. We went on to play one of his favorite sports: basketball. As we played basketball, we talked about alot of the differences between our two cultures, especially race. He asked me about the whole problem between black/white, and I told him about slavery and alot of the problems that has transpired since then. He told me that in Turkey, they love black people and have no hatred towards them. We also talked about politics, history, and just life in general and the differences that both our cultures have as a whole.

The Turks have a very strong b-ball culture. Sounds like a great place to be!
