As-salaamualykum (Peace be upon you)
Dear Sir/Madam
May this letter find you in good health and perfect iman.
RE: AN INNOVATIVE IDEA – REQUEST FOR YOUR SUPPORT.
The Youth Leadership Forum of our School has embarked on the idea of having to establish a forum for apartheid activists of the Greater Vaal Area. The Forum would be called: “The Vaal Hearings” which we hope to publish in a book together with snippet articles in our School’s newspaper called : The Independent.
We do know that you have been involved in the struggle and that you still know some comrades who have not told their story. Therefore, we would like to document these stories before they become myth or town legends.
We have set up basic structures like writing the mission and vision of the project, the basic questionnaire that we can use as a template, the pupils who will conduct the interviews and the way we would organise a fund raising dinner where our comrades would tell their story. This we believe will keep the flames of struggle known to many people. The intention is to invite the honourable Bishop of the TRC, Mr.Desmod Tutu and others.
We would like to get your story as well and your valuable help.
Thank you for the time, effort and consideration you will give this matter.
Shukran,
Mr.A.Sujee
DeputyPrincipal.
