Ten reasons for Tutu to dance

Jet, May 17, 2004

* TEN REASONS FOR TUTU TO DANCE: Archbishop Desmond Tutu, renown for his work in ending the racist government policies of apartheid in South Africa, dances out of St. Paul's Cathedral in London after a thanksgiving service to celebrate a decade of democracy in South Africa. The country that once denied a majority of its population basic rights through its policy of apartheid is now a multiracial democracy, thanks to the heroism of activists like Tutu and Nelson Mandela who became the first democratically elected president of South Africa in 1994.

Tutu is archbishop emeritus of Cape Town, South Africa, and a 1984 Nobel Peace Prize winner.
