"Cry, the beloved country, for the unborn child that is the inheritor of our fear." -Alan Paton

Instead of "Cry, the Beloved Country," perhaps Alan Paton should have written a novel entitled, Cry, the Beloved Continent." Although Paton's book was about South African blacks and their experiences of racial injustices and hardships under white rule, it could still be considered a present day account of how true democratic reforms and peaceful governance have yet to emerge across much of Africa's continent.
