I wasn’t there but, I know what they did to our forefathers. 

I wasn’t there but, I know that our grandmother’s were not allowed to queue with them.

I wasn’t there but, I know they were not allowed to use same facilities with them.

I wasn’t there but, I know that our parents were forced to carry dompass wherever they go.

I wasn’t there but, I know that Apartheid was there!

But now it’s became history. 

History of our parents. 

History that we learn about at school.

Indeed I wasn’t there. 

I just heard it by my parents and my teachers. 

Many people died for us.

They died to fight for our freedom.

Today we are living peacefully because of them .

Indeed this is a new South Africa.
