Andy Kirkpatrick

Andy Kirkpatrick Human Voices I’m sitting in a cafe in Aalborg, near the tip of Denmark, a place I’ve never been before - or even heard of.  Sat across from me is a Somali family talking far too loudly,  you can feel the tension in the room, where apart from this family; dressed in bright fabrics, everyone is white and blond-haired, all lefty liberals, yet still feeling annoyed at these outsiders, cackling in Arabic while people try a sit their lattes in peace.  I guess we don’t mind multiculturalism as long as people keep their voices down.
