      Unfortunately reality is very different. The powers behind the scenes, who financed the "liberation", are still in power. Only the veneer has changed.
      Read Stephan Goodson's book on Central banking. There lies the root.

      Johnny was the first 'celebrity' I ever met in person. I passed him in a hotel parking lot and said 'Howzit Johnny.' He kindly returned the gesture. What an incredible life. This tribute is testament to the lives he's touched with his music. I grew up listening to The Scatterlings of Africa on LP. My first musical influence now that I think about it. Thanks for the 'firsts' Johnny. Your love for South Africa and it's people will be fondly remembered and honoured. Thanks for posting this Karen.

    This video should be played before every Parliament sitting, before every political rally and before every interview with any politician. Because this is who the broader public is. And despite the attempts by our politicians to divide us, this harmony is what most South Africans want. This should be the soundtrack to our revolution, where we take away the divisive rethoric from our politicians and remind them that most of us want peace and unity. Well done to all the artists. You made a middle aged white guy shed a tear for what South Africa is suppose to be.

One day when the politicians and media are put in their place, we will get there. I just hope my kids get to experience South Africa as it should be, the SA Johnny Clegg and so many others fought for.

    I have been a fan of Mr, Clegg since the 80s. As a citizen born in the US, I am jealous that we do not have a national hero like him, a bridge between cultures, pointing the way to a brighter future. He's your Pete Seeger, & Dylan (if Bob was more politcally active), & your Eric Clapton, adopting a music tradition from another, so very worthy culture. He has rightfully celebrated the value of every culture, that can be woven into the tapestry of Humanity. What a Great Heart !!! I cry everytime I watch/hear him & his brothers, sisters, mentors performing together. Long may his life guide us !

    My favourite tribute to Johnny! I saw him live in Durban on his final tour and I'll never forget that night for as long as I live. This man was a true inspiration for equality and his message will always live on. RIP, Baba. Siyabonga kakhulu 🙏

    I lived in Kenya for 25 years. Am now back in Australia. I cannot give up my SA music addiction. Arno, Parlotones, Just Jinjer. Johnny Clegg is on the list and so many more. I do not understand why SA music hasn't penetrated the Australian music scene. It is so much better than much of what we have here.
