Girls are the future mothers of our society, and it is important that we focus on their well-being.

African music, though very old, is always being rediscovered in the West.

I look at an ant and I see myself: a native South African, endowed by nature with a strength much greater than my size so I might cope with the weight of a racism that crushes my spirit.

Girls are the future mothers of our society, and it is important that we focus on their well-being.

But if you are going to wear blinders then you do not know the world.

And why is our music called world music? I think people are being polite. What they want to say is that it's third world music. Like they use to call us under developed countries, now it has changed to developing countries, it's much more polite.

I have to go and say farewell to all the countries that I have been to, if I can. I am 73 now, it is taxing on me.
