By the way, as far as I know, the Masai are the only people who directly gave assistance to the US immediately after the attacks of 9-11. I think it was something like 500 or 1500 head of cattle, which would represent quite a sacrifice for them to give us. I have a deep respect for the Masai for this.

Kenya's Maasai Commemorate 9/11 Victims

"On the fifth anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks in the United States, a Maasai community in a remote village in western Kenya paid homage to victims and their families. The elders, who in 2002 had dedicated 14 head of cattle to the victims' families, say they continue to think about those who lost their lives in the violence."
