I got your link from Motley Collection's Blog Roll - This time in history, what was accomplished through the public being a part of the solution - the sacrifices that were made in the name of what was right - may never be duplicated again - but at least exhibitions such as these give us a blueprint for the future. Thanks for this. -Stal Thanks for this.

Interesting that in both cases (yours and mine) segregation and race are the subject. I suspect there's some truth in the notion that the struggle for human rights is/was made for still photography. The Hector Pieterson Memorial itself features a huge, heart-rending photograph.
