Having bad fashion sense did not help the fact either and being in the band was a real kicker. Life in middle school was the worst and I would never want to experience it again‚ even if you tried to pay me.

    nation. But South Africa presented racism in a new way. Racism was established in South African constitution. It was called Apartheid. And it is quiet strange that the protest against Apartheid was almost music based. The white government tried to take control over the movement. They hanged Vuyisile Mini the father of the protest songs‚ they jailed the front-line leader Nelson Mandela but when victory was the only option there was no chance of stopping.
