Port Elizabeth 2 May

2 May 2011 By Alan Straton

A quick roundup of mentions of Port Elizabeth in blogs around the world for Monday 2 May 2011 – Happy May Day Workers, Amandla and all that. Can someone explain to me why ‘workers’ are always pictured as soil tillers, miners and artisans? Do I also not qualify as a worker? Or should that be ‘slave’?

MyPE provides this roundup in order to promote Port Elizabeth and to encourage fellow bloggers to expand their coverage of Port Elizabeth and surrounds.

With no unifying event over this past weekend the mentions of Port Elizabeth today do not follow much of a unifying theme but are interesting nonetheless:

Chief Cook, Bottle Washer and Broom Mechanic at MyPE
Passionate about Port Elizabeth and definitely NOT packing for Perth. Alan's ethos is epitomised in the words of Nelson Mandela; "I have fought against white domination and I have fought against black domination. I have cherished the idea of a democratic and free society. If need be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die." See more articles by Alan.
