 | Reflective Writings and the Arts: Understanding and Combating War was inspired by the work of one of our good friends, Lucy Dougall. In this section you'll find examples of poetry, prose, art and music. Make sure to take a look at some of the most recent additions: Prayer of the Children and the bilingual rendition of Violeta Para's Gracias la vida. New pages are added to Reflective Writings and the Arts weekly. |
Dennis BrutusToday, many know Dennis Brutus for the work he did for social justice and global peace. However, his story started in the 1950s. Though known as a poet who advocated for the poor of his country, Dennis assumed a pseudonym, A. de Bruin (meaning "a brown" in Afrikanns) and wrote a sports column that dealt with issues of race and sports. |
