You know, Candace, I confessed I cried during the reading of "the names" as part of the all 9-11 all the time hoopla we are presented to (and btw, having lived and worked in NYC for decades, it should come as no surprise that I KNEW a number of the victims MYSELF)... and I just cried again listening to Peter Gabriel sing of Steve Biko...

There is no personal, or national monopoly, on being on the receiving end of tragedy or injustice... a simple fact of the universe that we'd all be a damned site better off if we just acknowledged.

Thank you for posting this.
