There's no way of knowing where that photograph was taken, what we are attempting to do is follow what the people involved are telling us; when Stanley Ann Dunham told Susan Blake she was flying out to Boston that same day to find work and accommodation, it's a fair question to ask, who would she have known in Boston? The man she convinced Susan was her 'husband' would not be in Boston for almost another year, so she would hardly have chosen to go to Boston unless she knew someone there. Aside from the fact that she had a three week old child with her that obviously wasn't hers.
The kenyan student, once he was living at Magazine Street and attanding Boston, told his associates that he regularly visited his son. And those visits would hardly have been back to Hawaii, or even Seattle. But Auntie Ella living across the river in Roxbury, that makes sense.
As zero, the boy on the left of the image wasn't the son of the kenyan, and the dark boy of the right probably is, it's quite possible the two boys were somewhere together at the same time, or they wouldn't be seen sitting next to each other.
One is the son of the kenyan and the other isn't.
And I can't say NOW WE KNOW because that's just what it looks like. People need to be allowed to make up their own minds.
Yes, I stand corrected. Right after I hit “post” I realized I don’t really “know”, it just looks as thought it could be likely. It also looks as though he had been to or spent some tme in HI before that photo with the dark boy was taken.
