The above photo (source) was taken by Brazil’s Indian Affairs Department of a tribe of Indians who live in Brazil near the Peruvian border (Map of Brazil). The people standing around above are from a tribe of humans endangered by encroaching illegal loggers on the Peru side of the border. These folks need our help.
In a way, these Indians are time travelers from humanity’s past. And while that’s a discussion in and of itself, the reason I’m sharing it here on BirthdayShoes should be obvious.
Just look at those feet.
I’m not sure these feet would even fit in some of the most generously-sized “barefoot shoe” toe boxes.
