Create a Peace Room
Today, at the University of Hull's stand, at the BETT Exhibition at Olympia, I got chatting to Andrée Jordan, and heard for the first time about the Peace Room. Check this site out, if you're a teacher, learning with any age group—8 to 80! I'm going to spin it at my students next week.
It was in South Africa that I first came across the book Above All Nations, in a shop selling secondhand books in Fish Hoek. That book inspired this blog.
The Peace Room Project set me thinking about the many peacemakers South Africa has produced, in spite of its turbulent past, but a country which now looks set to a turbulent future, with the prospect of a President whose theme tune, still invariably aired on public occasions, is Umshini Wami (Bring me my machine gun).
And now you can get the ringtone.
Cry, the Beloved Country.
