The Moderator Thobekile Matimbe
Fellow Zimbabweans
I want to express my profound gratitude to the organisers for the honour and privilege granted to me to deliver the 2020 Annual Lecture under the theme: Hate Speech and its Impact on Transitional Justice. I feel scarcely qualified to do so but will endeavour to do justice to the honour. This is not my first time to be invited to speak by the National Transitional Justice Working Group. I had the privilege to share remarks on prospects for accountability for Gukurahundi Atrocities in Matopo and the vicinity of Bhalagwe Detention Camp in 2018 at the annual meeting of the Working Group. It now seems like a lifetime away. A lifetime in which much has happened without much seeming to have changed.
