<< Starving in Gaza | Main | The World Versus Bush >> February 21, 2003Amandla! Revolution in Four-Part HarmonySEE THIS MOVIE!
This is a film of surprising humor as well as tragedy, brilliantly interweaving historical background and discussions of how song allowed black South Africans to defy authorities in ways they could not contain. And tears came to my eyes as Nelson Mandela was elected President, a revelation of a film that can remind us of the wonder that is democracy for a people who had to struggle for it for so long.
