I've already blogged a bit on the New Year's celebration, but just wanted to add a little more reflection to try and stay somwhat chronological in the reflections of my thoughts.
Long Street celebration for 25 newly assembled U of M academics about to embark on some pretty challenging topics of racism, segregation, inhumane treatment, poverty, oppression, and disease. We were also going to be able to see some the most awesome displays of natural beauty my eyes will ever see....but until then, we party with the South African locals. We enjoy the beginning of the South Africa Global Seminar community building through the festive celebration of bringing in 2011 together.
