Beyond Conflict made a visit to Lagrange, Georgia, after visiting Atlanta.
Roelf Meyer and Mohammed Bhabha are two individuals who played instrumental roles in ending apartheid and building a multiracial democracy in South Africa.  

Roelf served previously as Minister of Defense and was being groomed to be the next leader of the National Party. In addition to leading the negotiations, he served as Minister of Constitutional Affairs and served in the government of Nelson Mandela.

Mohammed was a leading ANC activist, a key negotiating team member, and later served as Minister of Local Government and MP.   

They shared how they accomplished the monumental task of transcending their deep mistrust and fear to avert a civil war and lead their country through a peaceful transition.   

Thanks, Tim Phillips, for adding us to your itinerary.
