Have you read Lisa-Jo Baker's book It wasn't Roaring, it was Weeping? She grew up in SA and is an amazing storyteller

Your post gives me hope. It makes me want to see South Africa for myself? It makes me want to find a way to help fix what is wrong in America. Thank you for taking the time to tell about your experience of learning, the story, the struggle.

Wow. Thank you. It was good for me as well to revisit and restore the memories and the callings.

Both my visits were right before Mandela was freed so you saw many things that were not in existence when I was there. Yes, there are many lessons to be learned from the things you saw.

Ed,

I could only read half of this account but I will return to it. The lump in my throat is too large to finish reading. But I will.
