- Summary:
- Documents the interaction between the tradition-based knowledge of West African nomads and the advanced technological knowledge of the United States, represented by agencies such as NASA and NOAA. Explores the consequences drought has on Fulani herders, and focuses on a community that must abandon their village in search of water but can no longer depend on their ancestors' migration routes to guide them.
