The Melleting Pot

Who is Patric Mellet?

An excerpt from his blog gives only part of the answer: "There was no particular Damascus moment of deciding that I would engage in the struggle and follow the resistance road. It just emerged as a natural path to take from a childhood hallmarked by poverty and pain, and the Apartheid system that dominated our existence and reinforced hopelessness. Through the liberation movement a path of hope beckoned in my teenage years. In taking this path – the resistance road, I experienced a profound transformation of my own life. There was no glamour in taking this path in the early seventies, when as a result of such a decision; one was branded as a radical terrorist by the establishment."

Patric is featured in the July edition of The Month. Don't miss the chance to 'meet' this fascinating man.
