When We Read We Are Able To

Today We Are A Nation At Peace With Itself, United In Our Diversity, Not Only Proclaiming But Living Out The Contention That South Africa Belongs To All Who Live In It. We Take Our Place Amongst The Nations Of The World, Confident And Proud In Being An African Country.

We Understand It Still That There Is No Easy Road To Freedom. We Know It Well That None Of Us Acting Alone Can Achieve Success. We Must Therefore Act Together As A United People, For National Reconciliation, For Nation Building, For The Birth Of A New World. Let There Be Justice For All. Let There Be Peace For All. Let There Be Work, Bread, Water And Salt For All. Never, Never And Never Again Shall It Be That This Beautiful Land Will Again Experience The Oppression Of One By Another And Suffer The Indignity Of Being The Skunk Of The World. Let Freedom Reign.

The Time For The Healing Of The Wounds Has Come. The Moment To Bridge The Chasms That Divide Us Has Come. The Time To Build Is Upon Us.

Let There Be Justice For All. Let There Be Peace For All. Let There Be Work, Bread, Water And Salt For All. Let Each Know That For Each The Body, The Mind And The Soul Have Been Freed To Fulfill Themselves.

No Country Can Really Develop Unless Its Citizens Are Educated. Any Nation That Is Progressive Is Led By People Who Have Had The Privilege Of Studying.
