Dr. S learned about Hugh Masekela from a colleague who had done a CUSO placement in Botswana in the 1980s during the anti-Apartheid struggle; he took music lessons from Hugh Masekela! Along with Miriam Makeba, Hugh Masekela is one of the most important black South African musicians and critics of Apartheid. He's great wherever he's from. This song is so mellow. I love it.

Happy! The credits moved too fast though, and I had to pause them to find out about the picture. Or perhaps I was so mellow from the song that I couldn't see fast enough.
