Banned and Unbanned

I was banned and unbanned in a single day. I put up on Facebook twenty-four photos of my childhood in the islands. Facebook banned six. The problem was children wearing only shorts, which Facebook said had "the potential for abuse by other people". 

POSTSCRIPT: It may raise a cultural issue. My photos were entirely acceptable within the culture in which they were taken, but controversial within the culture which dominates Facebook. Perhaps Facebook is unwoke.
