Remembering South African anti-apartheid activist Chris Hani
Well-read Red Alan Wieder introduces and reads from Jay Naidoo's article about South African anti-apartheid activist Chris Hani. After helping win the battle against apartheid, Hani called for a "culture of service."
"On the eve of the 1994 democratic election, he said that South Africa faced a “new enemy” and a “new struggle”. That enemy, he said, was socio-economic; it was about the struggle for jobs, houses, schools, so that we can build a society that cares."
Hani was assasinated by a right-wing extremist shortly after saying this.
