Archbishop Desmond Tutu. the Moral Giant, who created the Truth and Reconciliation Commission.

from StocktonAfterClass · host Ronald Stockton

Send us Fan MailArchbishop Desmond Tutu was one of the three indispensable people whose actions saved South Africa from a violent transition when that country went to majority rule.  He created the Truth and Reconciliation Commission as an alternative to prosecutions and vengeance.  He also believed that the Black struggle in South Africa and the Palestinians struggle were very parallel.  He once said, we cannot be free if they are not free. I hope you will find this podcast to be  morally challenging and rewarding. Note:  I have a previous podcast on Nelson Mandela and am working on a podcast on F. W. De Klerk.   I also have a podcast entitled Confessions of a Former Terrorist, mentioned during the current podcast.
