Jubilee!
Zambia has been very good to me. A visit there in 1991 changed my life. My only writing to make the best seller list was Tales of the Cha-Cha-Cha, about Zambia's unarmed revolution, preserved as Chapter 19 of Paul Loeb's The Impossible Will Take a Little While. I was Tour Director for Amayenge's USA tour and married for 12 years to Moye Kashimbe. Zambia has been very good to me.
In the early 90's I wrote a piece titled Jubilee 2000, which I shared with a listserve of Zambians living around the world. Since then I continue to encourage people to read the law of Jubilee in Leviticus 25. The world be well served to sound the trumpet and declare:
Please read my latest article on the Jubilee at http://progressiveblitz.blogspot.com/2011/01/jubilee.html. Thank you for bringing Mr. Haang’andu into this discussion.
