There's something in his blog that just keeps preventing me from leaving anything there, pity.<BR/><BR/>Rethabile, I just wanted to tell you how much I appreciated your great tribute, a truly wonderful piece. I still remember hearing the news of his 'death' in London, which was way before P. Gabriel sang his name to millions. I too had wondered about what Biko WOULD have achieved, along with so many others lost, when the time came after 1990, then 1994. My deep respect and sincere respect for your post. Shame about the gremlin that's 'censoring' me.

Well, coming in to you right now has freaked me. Read up:<BR/>When I came by earlier and saw/read your previous post, although there wasn't the slightest conection Biko came clearly into my mind! I've heard or read nothing about him for quite a while, but that thought led straight to an old friend of mine who worked on editing the movie. Too weird. I want to go read Rethabile's tribute now. So many that walk on a higher plane in life that they have to be brought down. But when in death they won't go away, the killers and their paymasters always lose out even more, they only succeed in elevating them higher. The people's judge knows the true criminals.
