I think that InI have witnessed very similar runnins in the 'organic' movement as well. I mean that in the sense that the organic and local movement have been pimped a bit. Although the 'hipster' connotations are hard to escape with the local movement as well.......... at least to some.

I really wish I had the means to sight this exhibition in person. I would only hope that there might exist a way for this to go to other museums worldwide.

Check the picture of the curator.

Selassie I rules and reigns~

Viable small business.
