"You just don't know how lucky you are that black

people can still tolerate living in shacks and

go and work for white people in beautiful homes,

and not kill those white people."

ARCHBISHOP DESMOND TUTU, JULY 2001

At the Durban anti-racism conference, 20 000 people

marched for reparations and against globalisation.

Then five days before the Sept 11 attack the US

government walked out of Durban.

This new film from South Africa asks why so many

in Africa blame northern governments and corporations

for their poverty. Includes exclusive interviews with

Tutu, Mandela, Soros, Mbeki and others.

Screenings are FREE and presented interactively by the

filmmaker!
