It was exciting, and a little strange, to find good news . I hadn't picked this up, here in the U.S.A., where the Angola 3 and I live. I'd been paying a lot more attention to Africa, because I pay a lot of attention to mining, everywhere, but especially in Africa.

I sent your piece to the editor of the San Francisco Bay View, National Black Newspaper, which hopes to have their website back up tomorrow, October 15th, and they were glad the news surfaced in Pambazuka. Hugely important case in African American history.
