Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu has urged young people to be the agents of change in South Africa.
Addressing children between the ages of 15 and 17 at the annual Tutu Youth Peace Summit in Cape Town, Tutu reminded them how lucky they are to be South Africans, adding that, “if you were born in the Democratic Republic of Congo you girls would almost all of you have been raped, maybe killed or maybe a refugee.”
He also urged the children to have the courage of the 1976 youth.
