Unity In Diversity

I snapped both of these gentlemen at the same protest recently -- within a stone's throw of each other -- one looking like a Bohemian, the other seemingly prepared for the battles with police which followed. What does it show? That at root the concerns are the same? It was one of the biggest student protests there has been in South Africa. OBSERVATION: Our national motto is "ǃke e: ǀxarra ǁke". Yes, that's the motto. It's in a language which is extinct. It means: "Diverse people unite."
