Tutu and tyranny in Africa

Tutu called for Obama to speak out against tyranny in Africa.

"For many of us, an upright US was a great inspiration in our fight against the iniquity of apartheid," he wrote.

"I pray that President Obama will come down hard on African dictators, especially because they cannot credibly charge him with being neo-colonialist."

I admire Rev. D. Tutu. He is never afraid to speak up and voice his opinion on behalf of all the citizens in the world. Maria Helena

The Rev. Desmond Tutu is the conscience of Africa and speaks without fear or favour and this does not endear him to the powerful.
