The campaign, which is an adaptation of US civil rights leader Dr Martin Luther King's 1963 ‘I have a dream speech', decries the high levels of crimes such as rape, farm murders and racially motivated attacks in South Africa, and the HIV/Aids pandemic ( Quote )

Did anyone see the Freedomday ad on SABC with the girl asking was this the freedom we struggled for??

+10000000000

But it will be pulled too. You should have seen the two on Morning Lives faces when the add ended.

I saw that. They were speechless and then they blamed the Morning Live theme song for being catchy :P FAIL ;P
 
I don't see why it was banned, but neither do I see any point in the ad other than trying to make whites feel guilty about having money and order.

Anakha: the add yeaterday morning is a Woman talking it sounds like a piece of poetry. But brilliantly done.

Something about her beng a prisoner in her skin but she lives in a country where the victomisers walk free where her 13 year old sisters give birth in bath rooms....
