"My project for "The Future is on the Table”, deals with human relationships. How each of us views "the other". One sometimes can't explain why things are the way they are. One person's view cannot suffice.
We all wish and hope for a better tomorrow but what are we doing today to make that possible?
To sum up my project I have borrowed from Bob Marley and the Wailer’s "War".

WAR
Until the philosophy which hold one race
Superior and another inferior
Is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned
Everywhere is war, me say war

That until there are no longer first class
And second class citizens of any nation
Until the colour of a man's skin
Is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes
Me say war

That until the basic human rights are equally
Guaranteed to all, without regard to race
Dis a war

That until that day
The dream of lasting peace, world citizenship
Rule of international morality
Will remain in but a fleeting illusion
To be pursued, but never attained
Now everywhere is war, war

War in the east, war in the west
War up north, war down south
War, war, rumours of war
-Rastaman Vibration, released April 30, 1976. Produced by Bob Marley & The Wailers."
