today's smallman lore is that i am taiwanese, scottish, and dutch (for the same reasons many taiwanese people are a little dutch).

growing up, i am too white and (slurs for developmentally disabled) to be bother being included in taiwanese language or being taught much of the culture unless there was no way around it, and being cut off from my birth father leaves me not knowing a lot about scottish and celtic things. but living where i do now gives me the freedom to learn about these things.

En er zijn foto’s te zien van schoondochter en fotografe Eva Besnyö (1910-2003, Boedapest, Hongarije). De foto’s tonen het harde en eenvoudige leven in dit arbeidersdorp…
