Welcome to the home of the Bishop Desmond & Leah Tutu Legacy Foundation. If you want to just call it the Bishop Tutu Museum, well, that's probably what your expectations are when you walk in the door in Cape Town.
Tutu, as you might recall, was one of the loudest anti-apartheid voices in South Africa. He was a voice of reason during a long, complicated process, and mixed Black and African theology along the way. No wonder he won the Nobel Peace Prize.
The museum portion of the renovated building (known as "The Old Granary") features a variety of exhibits and a video. Bishop Tutu's car is even there. The exhibition space isn't too big, but it's a good way for people did receive an overview on the subject.
Now, the photo. It shows caricatures of Tutu and Nelson Mandela, created by a cartoonist for a television program in South Africa. Nicely played.
