PART OF THE REASON I WENT THERE WAS TO COLLECT MEMORY.ON THIS DAY I WANTED TO REMEMBER THE FACES OF THOSE WHO BELIEVED IN THE VIEW THAT THE MARCH ON THIS DAY WAS INDEED GOING TO BRING ECONOMIC FREEDOM IN THEIR LIFETIME.IN THEMBALIHLE I SAW DA,ANC.PAC AND COPE UNITE AND ALL SAY SIYAYA E PETORI.13 DAYS LATER THE LEADER OF THE ANCYL WHO LEAD THE MARCH GOT SUSPENDED FROM THE RULING PARTY, WILL THE PEOPLE OF SOUTH AFRICA SEE THE FRUITS OF THEIR LABOUR.BROTHERS SISTERS MOTHER AND CHILD SLEPT ON THE OPEN IN A STADIUM IN PRETORIA I HEARD NO SINGING ON THE MORNING OF THE 28TH AFTER THE LONG WALK DUBBED THE COMBRADES MARATHON WAS FINISHED NO SIYAYA E PETORI ,THERE MASSES WERE IN PRETORIA NOW, WHAT NOW THEY ASKED AMONGST THEMSELVES.A LONESOME DISC JOCKEY BELTING A TUNE FROM DURBANS FINEST"I GYM MAPHI LE WEIGHT".THERE WAS NO SINGING BUT JUST SLEEPY FACES AND CONTEMPLATIVE ONES OTHERS ASKING ALOUD WHAT AM I DOING HERE.I REMEMBER THE HOPE AS PEOPLE CLIMED ON TO BUSSES I SAW THE FACE OF THE JOBLESS,THE POVERTY STRICKEN,THE MOTHER DOING IT FOR THE FUTURE OF HER KIDS ,FATHERS WHO HOPED THIS WILL HELP THEM REGAIN THEIR DIGNITY IN THE FACE OF SOCIETY THE HOUSELESS,LATER ON THE DAY ON TV I SAW THE RICH IN THEIR WALKING SHOES TAKING THAT EXTRA MILE TO PROTECT THEIR TENDER FUTURE I SAW THE FIESTY PROTECTING THEIR PRESENT AND FUTURE WITH HUNGRY AND THIRSTY MASSES BEHIND THEM.I MAKE PICTURES TO HELP ME REMEMBER ,LOOKING AT THESE PHOTOGRAPHS NOW I CLEARLY REMEMBER THOSE 2 DAYS IN THEMELIHLE ,BEYERS NAUDE SQUARE ,OUTSIDE THE CHAMBER OF MINES IN SANDTONAS WELL AS THE SCENE IN COLENDRON STADIUM IN PTA .MY VIEW IS THE PEOPLE MUST REMEMBER AND HOLD ACCOUNTABLE THOSE WHO MADE BOLD AND EMPTY PROMISES TO THEM,WHILE THEY WERE HOMELESS JOBLESS TIRED AND THIRSTY WHERE THEY LED TO THE LAND OF MILF AND HONEY AS PROMISED.
