Back Home...what an incredible time!!



The SOS hostel which we stayed at, this allowed us to visit the SOS Village which is an orphanage-it was an amazing time :)

Then we went to the SOS college and we saw the history of Ghana's most significant events, including slavery. I was able to talk about Reconciliation after the Apartheid and how we need to move forward and focus on current issues- ie. the Envionmental crisis and talking about RSA's and Ghana's past!

It was a trip which has inspired and taught me a lot. Its funny how I was also able to have fun at the same time!!!

RIGHT NOW I'M GETTING MUNCHED BY MOZI's IN Ghana






I'm one of eleven teens from Cape Town to be part of the "Young African leaders Tour". This is the first tour and we're creating connections with the Accra International SOS secondary school.
We're touring around from Accra (capital) through many towns and cities to Cape Coast where we're getting a clear picture of what actually happening concerning the slave trade and where ghana is today....and how south Africa can be part of the solution!!

This is going to be a awesome asset for KAPE TO KENYA next Year!!

PROTEST FRIDAY!! 17th JUNE 2011!! Waterfront CAPE TOWN


Protest Action of annual Namibian Seal Slaughter- BE THERE!

Each year, 85 000 baby seals, still suckling from their mothers teats, get savagely beaten to death on the beaches of Namibia. A further 6 000 adult bull seals get shot at point blank range so that their penises can be used to make an ineffective aphrodisiac.

We say
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. We have made repeated calls to the Namibian Government to end this massacre, we have provided alternative solutions in terms of eco-tourism, but th
ere are none so deaf as those who shall not hear.

We will be holding a PEACEFUL demonstration on the
17th of June. All are welcome to attend. As a show of solidarity and to create a visual impact, supporters are asked to wear black and red. Bring your own posters, get creative!

PLEASE INVITE FRIENDS
PLEASE REPOST TO YOUR WALL
PLEASE INFORM THE MEDIA
