| The same question applied when the ANC entered upon a course of violence in its struggle against apartheid Gail. In this case it is imperative, given the abuse of the democratic system and its failure to serve the people of SA, that critics of the government use all resources to attack this governement. In particular it is important to awake black consciousness with respect to undeserved respect for traditional leadership. Particularly black male consciousness. There is an unthinking cow-towing to the person of Zuma. In this respect the art has served the national discourse on Zuma's worthiness brilliantly. In the sense that Zuma has evaded the courts of law, it is entirely apposite that he be judged in the court of public opinion. Given that most black people have unquestioned fealty to his person as "leader" its likely that he will be returned to power, or some terrible incarnation of the same useless leader. What chance a Mandela will step into the breech? I think the art was brilliantly correct. | | Zuma has used the presidency to wreak havoc on the morals and fibre of this country. There is hardly a man more undeserving of artistic respect. I have full sympathy with an artist whose freedom of expression is under attack from the so-called president, and wish him well in his legitimate defense from this man who belittles the effort of caring South Africans. Right now his team are preparing to carve up the Karoo with Shell, and share the spoils. Lose sleep over Zuma's genitals? Wrong Gail; lose sleep over his awful legacy and downgrading of South Africa's humanity. |
