The AWB on the Cape South coast... Trouble in paradise

We've been on the Cape South coast (George, Wilderness and Knysna) for the weekend. I was absolutely astounded to see these posters on just about every lamp post in the area - they advertise a white supremacist rally at which Afrikaner Weerstand's Beweeging (AWB) leader, Eugene Terreblance, is speaking.

I had two thoughts - first, sadness that persons and groups like this even exist in the new South Africa. Second, I was proud to be a new South African! We will even allow such persosn rights and freedoms in South Africa (unlike their behaviour in the past and desire for the future...)

Still, my heart is sad! Pray for this region - clearly there is still a lot of work to do here to heal relationships and establish the kind of society that would honour God!
