Papa Stop the War

Hearken the voice of reason. Racial venom is like social dynamite.

I've been doing some writing about the last days of apartheid, so far mostly for myself but hopefully some will be sharable. In the process I've been rewatching some movies on the subject and listening to music from the time. I was rewatching, Amandla! A Revolution in Four Part

Thanks. I love it, too.

I've seen and experience first-hand, on an incredibly smaller scale, just how hard it is to change a culture. Any culture. Yet I've also witnessed such change repeatedly in my lifetime, and sometimes (like this one) that change has been for the good. I look forward to reading whatever you write about it that you decide to share.

I am another who will be interested in reading what you have to share, Grant. I absolutely agree about the dangers of racial venom. While I see much more tolerance amongst the kids I work with these days, there still exist small, intolerant subgroups. They can be quite scary in their intensity.
