I received this email from a journalist friend of mine today:
Today is Youth Day - a public holiday to commemorate the Soweto
schoolkids' protest for better schooling.
Hector Pieterson, 13, was shot dead by the police, enshrined in a classic photograph.
He has since been sanctified, beatified etc.
The kids in the Cape also protested - it was quite a do.
On our company website we have a Voting Booth - you vote on the topic of the day.
Today iot is:
Is Youth Day
A - To honour the kids' fight for better education
B - Just another public holiday
C - What's Youth Day?
The response was:
A - 7%
B- 52%
C - 41%
Makes you wonder what it was really for, don't it.
What do you think??
South Africans answer this please.
