On the occasion of the Centennial anniversary of the African National Congress -- and South Africa's January, 2012 assumption of the UN Security Council Presidency -- we examine the post-apartheid nation's politics, economics, domestic policy, and global role.
FEATURING:
Zamani Jali, Dube Foundation chair, discussing John L. Dube's founding of the African National Congress (originally the "South African Native National Congress") on 8 Jan 1912 -- and his partnership with Afro-American leader Booker T. Washington and the Tuskegee Institute;
South Africa's Consul General in New York, his excellency George Monyemangene, in a wide-ranging discussion of post-apartheid economics, education, domestic legislation, foreign policy and future national plans;
South African President Jacob Zuma, the current UN Security Council president, excoriating the body for ignoring the African Union and militarily exceeding its own mandate in the consequent NATO-American overthrow of Libya and assassination of Muammar Gadhafi; and
The late Gil Scott-Heron: "Johannesburg".
