In the village of Barsaloi in northern Kenya, people are struggling to adjust to sedentary village life now that their traditional nomadic lifestyle is under threat. Many children are now going to formal school, but others remain herders, reluctant or unable to foresake the life of those who came before them.

This collection of videos shares the perspectives of Barsaloi children as they begin to define their identities in this new way of life. Within each section, you will find black-and-white interviews recorded by Peter Jordan and color videos made by Barsaloi children, using digital video cameras and a solar-powered computer.
