The Music of LanguageRachel Strohm
Reporter Jina Moore is based in Rwanda and enjoys listening to – and learning – the many languages she encounters while traveling.
Description
Freelance journalist Jina Moore has encountered a whole spectrum of foreign languages while reporting in Africa. She speaks a few of them, and for the ones she doesn't speak, she's learned to find beauty in words she doesn't know — and a sense of home in the words she can understand.
Jina Moore sent us this Reporter's Notebook from her current home in Rwanda. Her reporting is supported by the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting.
