Hi, my name is Mo Keane, and I'm a retired American living part-time in rural Senegal, where I have a small environmental center called the Gandiol Eco Center. I work with the local high school teachers to assist with the English Club, the Science Club, to show movies and to provide other mentoring services as requested.
In the US, I split my time between the states of Iowa and Missouri where I have family. There, in Clarksville, Missouri, where I have a small house, I am hoping to set up a small Diverse Books library for kids because multicultural books are not readily available in the mostly white communities. Part of my vision will be to provide books about Africa written by Africans to kids who otherwise may not be able to read about children of other cultures around the world.
