## Resource

This is a follow-up to a conversation Simon Roche and I had a few days ago about the Soweto Uprising of 1976, now known as Youth Day. We discussed the morally indefensible decisions made by the South African government at the time — and how Soviet and Jewish interests then exploited the event for gain that had nothing to do with South Africa's interests. A lot of people were angry after listening to the episode, so this is a response to the triggered.
