Sport
Sport is a better peacemaker than politics or religion. South Africa has once again won the Rugby World Cup and although victory is always sweet and defeat bitter, there is a bigger story. In 1995, when South Africa first won the trophy, the country was a fledgling democracy and rugby was still the sport of the oppressors (white Afrikaners). Yet President Nelson Mandela used the occasion to unify a divided nation. When Siya Kolisi led his team to the most recent victory as South Africa’s first black Springbok captain, the incredible societal transformation that began 25 years ago reached another milestone.
