But spreading a message is helped by its symbols: Islam's green flag, Christianity's cross, socialism's red, anarchism's black. For freedom's message, adopt blue. A blue shirt or blouse, a blue hat or scarf, blue earrings or bracelets. Freedom is a universal, as is our blue sky. 'Each One, Teach One' is wonderful idea; find a way to give it a symbol; a blue umbrella, for example, or a simple, solid blue piece of cloth draped along the Zimbabwe flag.

As for the young ones who believe that leaving Zimbabwe for other countries is their solution, I urge them to think twice. There is so much suffering of those labelled either as refugees or economic immigrants the world over. In Europe, couple that with government sponsored racism. I cannot think of a better place to live than in a politically free and economically flourishing country than Zimbabwe. My childhood memories, though drowned in the dire poverty I grew up experiencing are certainly the best memories I will ever hold dear. Good luck and God bless - He surely helps those who help themselves.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('86041','floence durrant'); return false;">Reply to this comment</a> --- <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('86041','floence durrant','Great post - the reason people are frightened of dictators is the isolation, the lack of knowledge of what they can and cannot do to change their situation and being suspicious of the next person.
