"before My Eyes Close In Death"
This wonderful and inspiring short speech by the great Zulu shaman, author, historian and philosopher Credo Mutwa is the most heartfelt and passionate appeal for Africa you will ever hear. It was recorded while David Icke and I were visiting him at his South African home last month to record his life's story. (Please read previous posts below for more...) Here's the story of how this remarkable clip was captured. I had just that minute switched on the microphone, and had asked Credo to say a word or two as a routine audio test. I thought he might say "1-2-3", or "Hello, hello". What he said instead was worthy of an appeal to the United Nations by one of the great statesmen of the world. It was quite unplanned, and I was more than fortunate to be able to record it all. This moving speech is MUST WATCH essential viewing for anyone who knows Credo Mutwa's life and work, and for anyone who cares about the fate of Africa. I started watching this not knowing what to expect. In spite of strenuous efforts to counter it, it is clear I still harbour a degree of that hard-nosed cynicism and residual sense of 'superiority' so typical of my self-styled 'civilised' white culture.
