Word for Word: Desmond Tutu

March 7, 2010 By 1 Comment

I think we are at a bad place in South Africa, and especially when you contrast it with the Mandela era. Many of the things that we dreamt were possible seem to be getting more and more out of reach. We have the most unequal society in the world. We have far too many of our people living in a poverty that is debilitating, inhumane and unacceptable.

    As per usual, the old man speaks the truth. I believe that Oliver T is probably turning in his grave as I type this. As for Nelson, well, I pity him. All he fought for and created is being thrown away, just like the current regime’s moral compass.

    Shame on them! Shame on them!
