We are in serious difficulty all over the planet. We are going to say to the world: There’s too much of profit, too much of greed, too much of suffering by the poor… The people of the planet must be in action.” …Dennis Brutus

Hi Sokari, I haven’t been on BL in such a long time, I almost didn’t recognize it. Congratulations on all your amazing work. I sent you a message on facebook. Let’s email and reconnect.
RIP Dennis Brutus. An important generation is passing on and I am not entirely sure who is stepping up and into their shoes.
Annie,
BL looks great, doesn’t it?
I think, as Barack Obama said, “We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.” We need to step into such shoes today, or else…

Glad to have you back Annie and yes Rethabile a wise statement by Obama – It is up to us to make the changes and build a new future. We cannot afford to wait for our children – now is the time.
Information in regards to a NYC memorial in his honour can be found on the Africa is a Country blog. Just a heads up to anyone who may be interested.

I so totally agree@now being the time, and having to make the change ourselves.
