A week ago I transited through Johannesburg -- my first time in South Africa. I found it quite ironic that I arrived in O.R. Tambo International Airport -- I am sure that I was the only person on the plane that had actually met Oliver Tambo, as the African National Congress headquarters in London during the apartheid years was just down the street from where I was living.
South Africa in the 1980s. Palestine in the 2010s. Different time, same struggle.
Thanks to David McNally for directing me to this.
