'What a rewarding read! This unique blending of philosophy, poetry and personalexperience, combined with an impressive scholarship, has enlightened me beyondmy expectations. I especially liked the constructive attitude which turns the ugly past into something which contains future - a dialectics of hope. Like many educated people I had a certain knowledge of the issues at hand but this work has convinced me that we need to know so much more about it. We must finally recognize how strongly this past still influences the present worldview and our actions.'’Talking Cheddo’ established forcefully the key role of language and the power of (forgotten) words ...'Prof.Dr.W.SchirmacherProgram Director,Media & Communications DivisionEuropean Graduate School EGSManga Clem Marshall conducts ongoing research into the intersection of language,culture and race.
