Brumskine Has His Day in Monrovia

Brumskine fell to his knees upon reaching the green podium set in the middle of the stadium. His wife Estelle kneeled next to him and facing the crowd, he went into a prayer. The noise was deafening all around but one could hear him say repeatedly “Jesus… Thank You Lord…” Standing just below the podium, I snapped a few pictures amongst the tens of journalists and photographers, protected by two rows of sympathizers that formed a human chain around their standard bearer.
