Grand Opening Party for Police Station


Like all parties here, it was all male. We sat around the perimeter of the police station and talked over very loud Arab music. Then the precinct commander invited me to dance, and gave me his sword as a symbolic gesture. We danced in a circle holding hands for a while, and guys danced all around us. It was weird, but no weirder than the electric slide.
