LIST OF CORRESPONDENCE COPIES INCLUDED IN JUNE 24, 1988 REGISTERED LETTER TO ARCHBISHOP DESMOND TUTU:

these correspondence copies--


Archbishop Tutu: Appreciating the significance of term of reference 1) a) to my May 7, 1988 statement to DIRECTOR-GENERAL: FOREIGN AFFAIRS C.M. Lloyd of the Botha regime, i'd suggest you point out to PRESIDENT OF SOUTH AFRICA Pieter W. Botha that the other "BLACK HEROES IN WORLD HISTORY" whose biographies are contained in that book are: The Queen of Sheba, Hannibal, Askia the Great, Esteban, Benjamin Banneker, Jean Baptiste Pointe du Sable, Le Chevalier de Saint George, Phillis Wheatley, Alexandre Dumas, Frederick Douglass, Cinque and the Amistad Mutiny,* Daniel Hale Williams, Matthew Henson, Paul Laurence Dunbar--and then South Africa's first Nobel Peace Laureate, John Luthuli.
A supplemental edition might include biographies of Martin Luther King, Jr., Stephen Biko, Nelson Mandela, the Reverend Jesse Jackson, and yourself, sir.
Offhand, one can't think of any supporter of apartheid throughout history who, in the eyes of the world, should be regarded as a "hero."


"You can blow out a candle but you can't blow out a fire."
--"Biko", by Peter Gabriel

*-THAT PARTICULAR CHAPTER OF THE BOOK, "BLACK HEROES IN WORLD HISTORY", FROM WHICH I TOOK TERM OF REFERENCE 1) a) TO MY MAY 7, 1988 STATEMENT TO THE THEN-SECOND-IN-COMMAND OF THE LAST APARTHEID REGIME'S FOREIGN MINISTRY, WAS ABOUT THE SUBJECT THAT STEVEN SPIELBERG MADE HIS MOVIE, 'AMISTAD'.
I PRESENTLY CAN'T TELL YOU OFFHAND EXACTLY WHERE I SAID IT ELSEWHERE AT MY WEBSITE, BUT I ADMITTED I AM A FAN OF MR. SPIELBERG'S WORK.


INCIDENTALLY, ASSUMING THAT THERE MAY ALSO BE CONSIDERABLE SUPPORT FOR THE LATE-U.S. SUPREME COURT JUSTICE THURGOOD MARSHALL AS A "BLACK HERO IN WORLD HISTORY", RELATING TO THESE CONTENTS, MAY I URGE VISITORS TO MY AWARD-WINNING WEBSITE TO TAKE YOUR NEXT FOOTSTEP HERE?
