Human Rights Day

Today is a public holiday in South Africa. Human Rights day. It originates from the Sharpville riots which catapulted into mass student uprisings and then into the ultimate political upheaval that brought changes in our country.

Many countries have been through all sorts of challenges. The question always is ... what will the outcome be? And quite obviously what follows from that? And so on and on.

Our ruling party, the ANC is not what it used to be since Nelson Mandela stepped down. Will the ANC hold on to power now that their image under Jacob Zuma is being eroded? And who would succeed them? Will a successor improve our collective lot here in South Africa? And the questions follow on and on. Watch this space.
