This is Yemi at the security desk on the ground level of the Corcoran Gallery. He has lived in the United States for approximately a year. He emigrated here from Nigeria. His people are the Yoruba. I analyzed some of their artifacts for an interesting history class I took last year. I didn't ask him why he moved but when I look at this picture I like to think it was in search of a better life and opportunity. The same as when the young people of America move from rural to urban areas.
