"Can We Go Higher?" Ukraine 2022

Can We go Higher??? Three decades ago, in response to a war in his homeland, Croatian musician Nenad Bach and Globalvision created a peace anthem and music video, asking the question Can We Go Higher? Sadly, the question remains as essential as ever. Now, with war raging in Ukraine, Bach is back with a poignant new version, also produced by Globalvision.

Our challenge is to get attention and get as many people as possible to see it! Please share as widely as possible with all your friends and followers.

Three decades ago, in response to war in his homeland, Croatian musician Nenad Bach and a supporting cast of prominent musicians and actors created an anthem to…

F.W. de Klerk, Last President of Apartheid South Africa, Dies at 85

When we first started producing South Africa Now in the late 1980's, I could only see FW de Klerk as an oppressive enemy. But (as so often) I learned from Nelson Mandela to look again. Here's his take from his autobiography, “Long Walk to Freedom" -- "To make peace with an enemy one must work with that enemy, and that enemy becomes one’s partner.”

A prominent Afrikaner, he vehemently defended the separation of the races but later stunned his deeply divided nation, and the wider world, by reconsidering the country’s racist ways.
