Race Against Time

Stephen Lewis’s 2005 Massey Lectures on AIDS in Africa are running all this week on CBC Ideas (9 pm).

I’ve never heard a more evocative, persuasive, or moving public speaker, and the indictment he lays at the feet of the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank, and the G8 nations should shake anyone with an inquisitive mind and an open heart to the very core of their being. Listen if you can.

There’s also an on-line forum about the lectures hosted by House of Anansi.
