Driving through my neighbourhood in Juba, an American once asked if I felt guilty living in the midst of such poverty. I didn't. At least no more than I had done living in England, being equally aware of the existence of such poverty. Physical proximity shouldn't really have much to do with it.
I do though feel guilty about the guy who sleeps in the bus shelter in my New Haven neighbourhood. What is that?
