Description
Summary:	This is the story of a black man in South Africa, filmed on the day he voted in the country's first free elections. PBS NewsHour correspondent Charlayne Hunter-Gault first interviewed him in 1985, when he worked for a white-run advertising agency. At that time, his life showed how opportunities were growing for blacks, and at the same time how apartheid and discrimination continued to affect them. Since then he has turned to activism following the political murders of his brothers. This film considers what the coming of democracy means to him and other South African blacks.
